WERE THE CHANGES NECES-
SARE?

The inquiry into the recent changes IN
the text books used in the public schools
of Louisiana has resulted as we had an
ticipated. There was no evidence of
graft, nor was such evidence expected,
nor can there be answer to the delibcr-
ate query: Were the changes of books
necessary?
Who have derived profit from these
changes? Certainly not the parents of
the pupils attending the public schools,
and if the benefits have accrued to the
publishers or to the agents of the pub
fishers and sellers, why has there been
a yielding to the changes of these text
books with each administration every
four years
Not only should the system of book
changes be condemned. but the class of
some Of the books are discredit to in
telligence of the State. 1t is time to
demand and to insist on the repeal of
a system which is a reproach to the
State and entails the costs of books on
thousands of the people who can not af-
ford such expenditures and are there
fore constrained to the compulsory ex-
ercise of great sacrifice in order to pro-
vide their children with the books trat
are required from these changes.
The book trust, the book concerns and
the book agents should be impressed
with the fact that the people of Louis
lana will not tamely submit in the future
TO being bled through the system of
changes in text books from which the
book concerns are the beneiciaries.

GENERAL LEE NEEDS NO DE-
FFNSF,

New Orleans States According to the
dispatches from Washington, Senator
Daniel of Virginia is preparing speech
which is to be a reply to the attack on
General Robert E. Lee made in the
Senate by Senator Hepburn of Idaho a
few days ago. 1t is to be hoped that
MIR. Daniels Democratic colleagues will
advise him to ignore the incident, as a
large majority of the Southern news
papers have done. As a matter of fact,
General Lee does not need any defense.
His pure, lofty and knightIy character is
known of all men, and his place is Sc
cure among the worlds immortals.
Therefore defense of Lee would re-
suit merely in advertising Hepburn and
that is what the pop gun senator from
Idaho is seeking. He has attacked
greatness for no other purpose appar-
entity than to attract public attention to
his own miserable snallness. He should
not be given the notoriety he desires, but
should be ignorej entirely and treated
with profound contempt by decent men
everywhere.
General Lees fame" remarks the
Richmond News-Leader. is as far
above and beyond the reach of such
petty malice and spite and vanity as his
lofty character is above its comprehen-
sion. This is true, every word of it,
and the truth emphasizes the fact that
Virginia's great soldier and splendid
gentleman does not need to be defended
by any man The worlds estimation of
Lee makes defamation of his character
and his record impossible

TO OUR FRIENDS
Compliments and Kind Words Are Al
ways Fully Appreciated

The Caucasian is always appreciative
Of the compliments and the kind words
of its friends, but in TO sense or spirit
of selishness nor greed it would remind
some of its friends, who seemingly do
not know it, that we are engaged in
commercial printing ard therefore so
licit their orders whenever they want
good printing.
We have the facilities for printing
anything printable, but give special at
tention to commercial printing.
Whatever we print is good, because
we know how to do it, and it is always
good Besides, the prices are always
reasonable, indeed the lowest, when the
style of the printing and the stock used
in printing is compared and considered.
Ring 1000 and there will follow an APP
preciative answer, for whatever job is
offered or desired.

RED RIVER BRIDGE
Progress Satisfactory-Its Construction
Assured-Action of the City Council
Ratified by Police Jury of Bossier.

The progress attained towards the
construction of the bridge across Red
river gives assurance of its success It
is one of the improvements long needed
but which has been retarded through
conflicting views and interests and some
what through negligence. 1t is not pos
sibIe to over-estimate the advantages of
this bridge which in time will link
Shreveport and Bossier City independ-
emily of the Nicksburg, Shreveport and
Pacific railway bridge, in which Shreve-
port has one-seventh interest. What
may become of this interest is for future
consideration AT this time, the neces-
sity of the construction of this new
bridge should not be hampered or de
layed by technicalities.
As provided by an Act of Congress,
active work must be inaugurated within
a few weeks. What has already been
done and is being done will secure the
bridge without any forfeiture for failure
to comply with the law, as has been i'll
several instances in the past Should
there be failure this time, in conforming
to this Act of Congress, there may fol
low years of inactivity, that is, Con
gress may not feel disposed to renew the
terms of construction which have been
repeatedly granted and repeatedly neg
lected.
Whatever progress has been secured
is due to Mayor Dickson, who has
pledged his best efforts towards the con-
struction of the bridge, and whatever
were the impediments were removed at
the special meeting of the Police Jury of
Bossier held at Benton Friday.
At this meeting, from Shreveport
were Mayor Dickson, Councilmen Bell
and Jordan, City Engineer Wilson, Hon
Leon R. Smith and w. Z. Johnston, real
estate agent.
The plan of proceedings, involving the
ways and means. were considered al
length in all the essential details. To-
wards the construction of this bridge
there is held in trust about 100000 col
lected for tolls. With this much to be-
applied to the construction the securing
of builder viii be prolonged until the
cost of the bridge is settled there will be
provided collection of tolls. secured to
the builder. When the bridge shall have
been relieved Of its cost of construction
it will then become a free bridge.
The plans of the bridge drawn by City
Engineer Wilson and all the details
have been approved It is planned to
span the river from Texas street Its
estimated cost is $5oo,ooo. So much for
progress

TRUST INFLUENCES
Are Supposed to Be Against the Water
ways.

In a telegram from Springfield, Ill., it
is stated that on Thursday Governor
Deneen sent a special message to the
Legislature declaring that there are GER
tain influences at work seeking to nullify
the expressed will of the people as to
the construction of the Lakes-to-t the
Gulf Deep Waterway He said it is plain
that the only interests which can profit
by delaying the project are individuals
themselves of the vast water power
which has been created by diverting the
waters of Lake Michigan into the Chi
cago river. the Desplaines, the Illinois
and the Mississippi rivers by a public
expenditure, when completed, which will
reach $So,ooo,ooo.
The governor says the claim that no
commerce will be attracted by the pro-
posed waterway is without foundation
He then considers claims that even if
they utilize the present power created
by the drainage canal. the power COM
panies will find no market. He cites ex-
.amples of companies which have found
easy access to markets at great dis
lance He adds In view Of the cour-
age and confidence of these private cor
Perations and the sanitary district of
Chicago i'll assuming the risks of this
hazardous enterprise. l think it is too
much to expect that the great State of
Illinois will be frightened by these film
sy objections into abandoning one of the
HIGHEST natural resources.

THE GAME LAW
Is Fast Losing What Friends 1t Had
1t Should Be Repealed

Guardian Journal The game law is
fast losing what friends it had. One by
one the different parishes are passing
resolutions condemning it and instruct
ing their representatives to encompass
its repeal. BY the time the Legislature
convenes it viii be difficult to find a
sponsor for the autocratic law in the

FOOT BALL
Is Danished from the Public Schools Of
New York.

The Saturday Globe states that foot
ball has been banished from the public
schools of New York since January /,
1910. After going over the subject ex-
haustively the board of education came
to the conclusion that the game is bru-
TALKING and dangerous to life and limb.
Some Of the testimony brought out at
the session was to the effect that when
player received injuries in game the
weakened part of his anatomy was sell
ected for special assault by his oppo-
nents later III the game or in succeeding
games. This brutality and unfairness,
it was charged, was not rare, but was of
common occurrence. Other evidence
was submitted which made it plain that
the game is barbarous and unworthy of
support by Christian people.
As New York sets the fashion in
many things for the rest Of the country,
its latest pronouncement probably will
6nd prompt and cheerful imitation.
Those in charge of our schools should
be the first to accept the dict1m and do
away with what by the majority of
Americans has long been considered a
disgrace to our civilization
Il Is time that So brutal a game were
being abolished A game at which sur
