A boquet and medal should be sent
to the Toledo policeman who shot the
firebug on Monday night for three
reasons, viz: the officer was on the
spot; he saw the burglar; he tried to
arrest him and when the burglar fired
at him the officer returned the fire
and actually hit the burglar, killing
him with the first shot. Really a re
markable record to all happen in one
night in Toledo.

STRIKES BACK.

Representative E. 0. Bruner, OF
Acadia parish, a gentleman OF
high standing, independence and
ability, has To Ken exec 10! to he
unwarranteu attacks OF the Times
Democrat upon the Legislature.
La the course of an interview in
the Crowley Signal Mr.. Bruner
says:
"My experience with the legis-
lator is that he is honest and
wants to do the right thing when
he is convinced thing is right.
1t strikes me that some of the
New Orleans papers are injuring
the chances in the country Of
carrying the Panama Exposition
tax by constantly abusing and
belittling the work Of the Legis-
lature. They accuse the Legis-
lature Of trying to pile up taxes
on the people and these same
papers are appealing to the peo-
pie to vote d four-miIlion-dollar-
tax for the Panama Exposition
to be held in the city of New Or
leans. 1t strikes me that their
course is inconsistent aud unwise.
Now, as to the Legislature in
creasing taxes, either directly or
Indirectly, is mistake. Any act
that bears on taxation is up to the
people to vote on. They can vote
for or against every amendment
just as they like. These papers
jumped on the Legislature for
electing Governor Sanders sena-
ator. The Legislature simply
stood on its constitutional rights.
The constitution is very clear on
the subject. 1t says IN case OF
vacancy in the U. $. Senate dur
ing the session OF the Legislature,
it Is the duty OF the Legislature to
fill the vacancy before 1t adjourns.
Of course the Legislature could |
have ignored the constitution and
ordered primary. But it is my
honest opinion that the result |
would have been the same at this
stage OF the game. Sanders has
been before the people twice,
once for lieutenant governor and
,nce for governor, and each time
1e won by an overwhelming ma
GRITTY, and it Was concluded by all
,osteu IN political affairs that he
. to-day stronger than ever be-
ore; then, could we doubt the
esuit".

Az EXTRA SESSION.

By the 18th of August the Leg.
lslature OF the State OF Louisiana
will assemb in extra session a,
the State Capitol for the purpose
OF so amending the recent con.
stitutional amendment as to in.
clude the entire amount needed
to insure the holding of the Pam
anna Exposition in New Orleans
in 1915. The amendment will
provide for tax to yield a total
of 81, 800, 900, so equitably levied
on all State property that the bur-
den will hardly be perceptible by
any one, while the increase there.
from will be inestimable. OF this
amount one or two millions will
be expended, SO we understand.
in bringing the resources of the
State prominently before our Wis
itors during the holding OF the
Exposition.
The purpose of the extra session
ought to appeal to the people of
the country parishes for the
change proposed in the .amend.
ment, while it will increase the
aggregate OF the tax paid by
New Orleans, will reduce the az.
gregate OF that to be paid by the
country taxpayers, To be spe-
chic, the proposition is to make
no change in the tax rate, but to
limit the term for the country par.
lshes to such time as shall be re.
CURED to make the aggregate of
the country tax one million dol.
lars, when it will cease automat.
ically. The measure now before
the people contemplates raising
1890, 900 from the country bar.
lsnes, hence a quarter Of a mil.
lion dollars will be saved to the
taxpayers outside of New Or.
leans by the adoption of the pro.
posed amendment.
On the other hand, the term of |
the tax as 1t applies to New Or.
leans will be extended until it |
aggregates the sum of $500. 900. |
when it also viii cease automat-
icaily. The ratio between civ
and country on the amount to be
raised by taxation, will be as six
and a half is TO one; fact that
