Memorial Day was appropriate

atmosphere and laid the dust so
that no discomfort attended the
parade to and return from the
cemetery.
The parade started from the
Fraternal hall at about 1890,
marshaled by F. L. Farnsworth,
mounted and uniformed as captain
of the Patriarchs Militant. As
previously arranged the ,Rathdrum
State band led the parade, all its
members, about twenty-five in
number, being present. The band
elected many compliments for the
excellent manner in which it ac-
Quilted itself throughout the day,
although it has been organized for
scarcely two months. The pieces
played seemed to have been well
learned and not only show that the
members have practiced diligently,
but reflect credit upon their in.

new ORLEANS WANTS IT
Sends Big Delegation After
Panama Celebration.
PLEDGES TEN MILLIONS
The Tariff Board. LaFollette
Assails Railway Bill.

Washington, D. c., May 49,
In the visit of the entire state
legislature of Louisiana, Washing
ton has an experience somewhat
unique in its history. The govern
or OF the state, the mayor ,of New
Orleans and mayors of numerous
other southern cities with many
prominent unofficial citizens of the
south arrived on a special train
with the legislature. Their object
is to urge congress to make New
Orleans the theatre for the cele-
bration of the opening of the
Panama Canal. This delegation
has been treated with unusual
honors in the capital city, for the
peaceful and patriotic invasion has
received nation wide attention.
The Louisiana representation is
decidedly larger and more impos
ing, with guaranteed fund of ten
millions, than was the somewhat
meager delegation from San Fran
cisco with its guarantee of FIVE
millions, and if it becomes a ques
tion Of the relative bigness OF
delegations and of money, New
Orleans will hold the stage until
bigger crowd with bigger purse
appears. These considerations,
however, do not touch the dues
tion that the United States capital
is the proper place for an interna-
tional celebration.
The passage of the tariff board
item, an amendment by which
i$25o, 900 is appropriated for a
special tariff board of experts to
investigate and report upon the
tariff question, is considered by
the republicans of the house to be
"a very important accomplishment
in that it is expected to take this
troublesome question to some ex
tent out Of politics and out of the
hands of those who Lave manipu
lated and twisted the tariff for
their own advantage. If the sen
ate adopts the bill as it passed the
house, it will leave in the hands OF
the President an ample sum for
this investigation. The board to
be appointed is called the "Presi.
dents Tariff Board" and it is
expected that it will 60 to work
busily on the passage of the bill
and collate facts which the Presi-
dent can submit to congress from
time to time when in his judgment
further revision is required.
At this writing Senator La
Toilette is in the midst of two Oh
three days speech in which he j:
assailing the railway bill. He
charges that notifications of the
original provisions Of the bill have
weakened it to meet the wishes o
the railroad presidents. He favor'
the Cummins amendment to th'
bill, which requires approval o
changes in rates by the interstate
commerce commission before thes'
rates are put into effect by thu
railroads. Asserting that the rail
roads have had their way in legis
lation for forty years, he said: 81
Senators listen to me, will brinl
them to the realization of the fac
that they have the sins of man
congresses to atone for before the
l pass this BILL" He argued tina
! the present freight rates are mucl
too high, and that the pending bi
: provides no measure by which tn
! railroad commission can decid
r the reasonableness Of any rate.

BECOMES TURF PATRON

AS sort OF climax TO the good boom
in racing this year comes the cheering in
formation that Thomas Fortune Ryan.
whose wealth compares favorably in size
with that of John ID. Rockefeller. has be-
come a patron OF the turf. Mr.. Ryan has
a private race track upon his estate in
Virginia and has some very fine stock, lie
has written letter TO the stewards OF
the Jockey club advising that long dis
tauce racing be revived as q means of
upbuilding the tuIf. Mr.. Ryan thinks
tlIat instead OF running half-miie, three
quarter mile and mile events If four and
fve-mile races were run the public would
again get interested and the ldtimc
crowds would attend the eastern tracks.

TO BfAUT|FY PARKS.
Grass Seed Has Been SoWn in
South 7th and South 10th
Street Plots.
WALKS ARE MADE TO USE

Ed Hollern, superintendent of parks.
has sowed about four bushels Of grass
seed in South Seventh street and
South Tenth street parks. hoping that
there will be no bare spots in these
parks this summer.
That what grass is now growing and
that the seed may not be killed, Mr..
Hollern, has posted notices in several
conspicuous parts of the parks, warn
ing pedestrians and school children to
keep off the grass. Failure to obey
the warnings will result in someone be-
ing prosecuted, said Mr.. Hollern, this
morning. The walks are amply large
and in good condition for pedestrians
to walk on them instead of walking on
the grass at the edge of the walks.
Later, when the weather permits, the
flower beds in these parks will be set
out, propagation of plants for the beds
already having been started in the
green house at the, glen.

NAME OF. FATHER
ROELL> IS HEARD
As a Probable Successor to
Auxiliary Bishop O'Dona-
hue, indianapolis.
OFFICE AN IMPORTANT ONE
BUT THE METHOD OF NAMING A
NEW PRELATE is NOT KNOWN
ARE TWO WAYS OPEN FOR
TAKING ACTION.

The name of the Rev. Father Roell,
pastor Of St. Andrews church, as one
OF the probable successors to Auxil-
iary Bishop O'Donahue, formerly of
the Indianapolis diocese, who was
transferred to the Louisville district,
Is heard frequently and local Cath
olics would not be surprised if the
Rev. Roell was selected for the high
honor.
Nothing has been done by Bishop
Chautard of the Indianapolis diocese,
relative to the selection of an assist
ant for him. 1t is probable that the
selection will not be made until after
Easter.
The position is a very important
one, as the auxiliary bishop at the
present time is practically the acting
bishop. owing to the advanced age OF
Bishop Chautard. who is unable to at
tend to any but the most important
business Of the diocese. The method
Of selection of the auxiliary bishop
has not been announced
One method Is for the bishop to se-
lect an assistant and have his appoint
ment confirmed BY the Pope. The
other is for the priests OF the diocese
TO vote on whom they favor for the
position, and the candidate Of the ma
jority of the priests sent to the Pope
for ratification. 1t has not been an
nounced, which Of these two methods
will be employed in the appointment
of an official to succeed Auxiliary
Bishop O.Donahue. :.

And Had to Draw on the Coun-
ty for $50 Extra to Pay for

Population.

Township trustees of the county
have made report for their respec-
tive townships, showing the amount
received during 1909 from dog tax.
and also showing the amount to be
returned to the county auditor, which
was not used in meeting the expenses
allowed by law in reimbursing tax
payers for loss of sheep. chickens.
ducks and other animals and fowls
killed by dogs during the year.
A complication of the reports shows
that s4,444.10 was received by the
trustees from dog tax. The total
amount of unused tax returned to the
county auditor is $2,524. The differ
ence between the amount collected
and the amount returned, $1,920.1o.
represents the total amount spent for
reimbursing owners whose domestic
stock were killed and the amount
which the law allows each trustee to
retain as a working fund for the en-
suing year. The law says that the
trustee must return the excess re-
ceipts over amounts paid out. less
$100, which is used as working fund
until the next tax is paid in.
Keep Working Fund.
In but one instance did any town
ship report that the dog fund was in
sufficient to meet the demands fol

township. which had to draw for $3t
on the county. There We're mum

did not have more than 500 excess

collected and returned, by each town
