WOMEN BOYCOTT
HEADGEAR TRUST

DENVER. Colo, reb 5.-Women of
Denver have started a boycott against
the milliners.
Mrs. CIaud E. Griffey and Mrs Ed
ward l.. Prentiss, two of the younger
matrons in Denver society, have an
nounced that they stand ready to start
the boycott and scores of their friends
have made known their determination
to step into line. Tho trouble is over
the price of hats.
we have been imposed upon long
enough" the women announce, and we
are tired of paving $50 for hat we
once could buy for $40. 1t is an out
rage and quite. as absurd as any meat
or coal trust, demand that was ever
made.
1T is nearing summer any way"
said Mrs Griffey today, and any
woman With good looking hair, false or
real, lool1srwelI without a hat"
And hair," exclaimed Mrs Prentiss,
why the way they charge us for hair
is something ytoymarvel sat, But think
of not being able to5 get the simplest
hat for less than SIS. If that isn't t
a holdup gamef I'd like to know what
is"
The men boycott people who hold
them up" put in Mrs. Griffey and
why can't the women?"

Death of an Eminent Educator.

Hon. Warren Easton, superintendent of
the public schools of New Orleans for al
most a quarter of a century and from 1884
to 1888 one of the ablest State Superin-
tedents of Education Louisiana ever had,
died at his home in New Orleans on the
18th instant, aged sixty-one years.
Mr.. Easton was an able educator and
not a spectacular demagogue, and to his
constant application, and to his sincere
love of the work as we'll as his good judg-
ment, are due so much of the success that
has come to the schools of our State.
"placing them on a par with any in this
great country
During Mr.. Easton's term as State Su-
perintendent, the State Normal School al
Natchitoches was established. He also
inaugurated the first institute work ir
Louisiana, and also the custom of the an
uual meeting of the Parish Superintend.
ents.

Would Strengthen the Educational Oliearch,

The proposed amendment levying tax
of three mills on the dollar by parishes for
the support of the public schools Of the
State is the result of the failure of the cum
ningly devised scheme of former State
Superintendent, solely for political advan-
tage, to take from the police juries of the
several parishes of the State the right to
levy school taxes for their respective par
ishes. The scheme, as originally proposed,
was so rotten that the Legislature refused
to adopt it, but offered as substitute Act
No. 257. The Shreveport Caucasian, re-
ferring to this "gold brick' amendment,
says:
"This proposition is plausible and en-
ticing, but is without limit of time when the
tax shall cease. Under the pretense of
education it would strengthen the educa-
tional oligarchy now political power in
the State. The law as it now stands is
sufficient to meet all reasonable demands
for school purposes and development. II
will be safe to defeat this amendment. II
it is sugar.coated and attractive, let it be
defeated"

Proposed Amendments Nos. S and s.

The Times Democrat believes that it is
infinitely better for the schools that the
law in regard to their revenues be left as it
is to-day. We are making more than sat-
isfactory educational progress. To use
the goad, whip and spur too much, to make
taxation, whether for school or any other
purpose, oppressive and burdensome is to
do injustice and arouse fatal antagonism.
Louisiana has at times grossly abused its
tax power. The present amendments in
clude five that relate to taxation, to levy
ing new taxes or new licenses; and nearly
every batch of amendments submitted to
the voters contains similar provisions for
new bonds, or new taxes, or new openings
for taxes.
The people of each parish know what
they can afford to give or ought to give to
public schools. The people of Calcasieu
cannot and ought not to decide this matter
for those of West Carroll. Leave the
school tax to the parish to be decided by
it. To have the forty thousand voters of
New Orleans order the people of country
parish to levy this tax without the slightest
knowledge by the city voters of conditions
there, the city being exempt from the pro-
visions of this law, is so manifest an in
justice and outrage that no one can posi-
bly, support or excuse it; and it is equally
unjust for many parishes that are wealthy
and able to pay this tax to force their
poorer neighbors to levy it willy nilly,
whether they want to or not, whether they
can afford it or not.
Leave the public schools alone-there is
too much legislation about them. Letthem
grow naturally, as the people can afford
the money for their support, and not by the
experiment Of forced and unnatural
growth. Protect them from the discredit
of the flood of constitutional amendments,
and do not let them become tangled up ia
the scheme of new taxes and more bonds,
against which the tide Of popular OPPOSE
ton is steadily rising higher and higher.
Vote against amendment No. 5, which
forces school levies on parishes that do not
want them and are not yet prepared for
them, and against amendment No. 8, which
provides for innumerable issues of school
bonds.-Ne,c Orleans Times Democrat.

MINDEN, La, Oct. 20, 1910.
Dear Sir: The election will be held on
Tuesday, November 9Th. AS the nominee
of the Democratic party for Congress I
urgently request that every one who is
qualified to vote will go to the polls and
vote the Democratic ticket. There will be
voted for on that day Judge of the Su-
preme Court, Member of the Board of
Equalization, Member of Congress, and
the various amendments submitted to the
Constitution of the State. The question of
voting special taxes for the Panama Expo
sition, Good Roads, Education, Pensions
for Confederate Veterans, and other mat
tiers involved In these amendments make it
important for every citizen to participate
in the election.

the polls on that day.

For the Benefit of the Political Machine.

Referring to the so-called good roads
amendment to be voted on at the election
to be held on November 9th, the Shreve-
port Caucasian says:
"This is another alluring proposition,
but it should be defeated for the reason
that the tax will be paid into the State
Treasury, a part Of which may be dissi-
pated through commissions and high-sal-
aired officials with little profit to the people
of the State. The time for construction OF
State roads through the length and breadth
of the State is not now propitious. The
road construction by the parishes is pro-
crossing encouragingly and will eventuate
in the parishes intersecting and connecting
the roadways which will practically give
the people State road. Vote against this
scheme"

The people-the common people-or, as
some Of them have been endearingly called
officially, STOOL parents who are moi
competent to manage their own schools,
should feel grateful for the inestimable
privilege yet granted them to pay more
school taxes at the bidding of the Educa-
tional Oligarchy of Louisiana. AS soon
as eoligarchyis more securely established
on its throne by additional drastic, easy.

able to run things in its own high-hand-
ed way, without condescending to consul,

NEGLECT of Duty.

It has been found, as in 1904, that ten
votes will carry through. an
amendment, whereas there ought to be
nearly two hundred thousand white votes
polled in Louisiana. The city ring has
"caught on to this, and with its effective
organization it is able to vote or count
enough ballots to carry through such
amendments as it favors, and to defeat
those it opposes y All Constitu-
tional Amendments are at the mercy of the
city ring, unless the voters can be aroused
to vote on them. If the people
of Louisiana could write the amendments,
as in the initiative and referendum States,
there would not be the patchwork, fraud
and confusion that have resulted from the
Constitutional Amendments as prepared
by the Legislature. The voters can DO
good work for Louisiana at the November
election, if they vote as they should on the
Constitutional gainst those
that are evil, or that are compromises with
evil, or in the interest of trusts, cliques,
rings or politicians, oppressive burdens to
the tax payers and producers and the whole
COMMUNICATIVE Orleans Times Demo-
Ocrat.
Constitutional Amendments would not
be cat the mercy of the city ring" if the
electors in the country parishes throughout
the State who neglect to vote would vote
at all general as we'll as primary elections.
Good government is as much sat the
mercy" of the men who could vote and
do not vote, as it is at the hands of the
city ring. What difference is there be-
tween the men who wrong the State and
those who could prevent the wrong, but
make no effort TO do it? 1t is the duty Of
all good citizens to vote at all elections
Protect your rights and assert your princi.

Lest We FORGET.

In 1904 the people were asked to increase
the salary of the Superintendent OF Edu-
cation, but declined to do so, believing that
the schools needed the money first. In
1903 still greater pressure was brought to
bear upon them to grant this increase, and
the people were threatened with the loss OF
the services of Superintendent Aswell, un-
less they would agree to raise his salary.
They voted a raise for this reason.-NeW
Orleans Times Democrat.
.sThe people, did not vote a raise in
Mr.. Aswell's salary for fear,of the loss OF
his services. Many of them regarded the
threatened loss'' as bluff, and would
have hailed with pleasure his actual resig-
nation. Mr.. Aswell was not as popular
as some of his friends would have US be-
leve. His arbitrary methods in practi-
cally outlawing the people in the control
of their schools, and his making politi-
cal machine of the school system of the
State in the interest of his political aspira-
tons, had made him unpopular with a
large number of people who were opposed
to his Highlander methods, and but for
the fact that he was at the head of the
school system of the State, with almost
unlimited power. it is our opinion a candi-
date would have entered the field who
would have defeated the Great Pretender.
As it was, no prominent educator was will
ling to offend 1.-THE powers" by running
against Mr.. Aswell and losing his position.
AS matter of fact, majority of the
parishes did not bluff worth a cent, and
voted against increasing Aswell's salary
the vote standing thirty-five parishes
against it to twenty -four in its favor. And
we have the Times Democrats word for it
referring to that election, that "Nothing
but the almost solid vote of the city con
troled by 'the organization and the two
suburban parishes, which have joined the
city organization, jefferson and st. Der.
nard, carried the amendment. Outside Of
these the vote stands: For the increase o.
salary of Superintendent of Education
7724: against an increase, 10,049; MAORI
ty against the increase, 1926. Had thu
country parishes voted as strongly as thu
city did, they might even have swampee
the city majority, but only one in six votee
on the amendments for or against Them
To show how badly some of the parishes
were inundated" by Mr.. Aswell's threa
to resign and leave the State to dense ig
norance and utmost darkness, we quot,
from the Times Democrat how the parishes
voted on the salary grab: Webster ant
VIM voted four to one against it; Bien
vile and Livingston five to one; Caldwell
six to one; Lincoln seven to one; Bessie
eight to one; Red River nine to one; Cam
eron twelve to one, and Claiborne fourteen
to one.
