TAX FOR EXPOSITION.

At q meeting in New Orleans
recently Governor Sanders spoke
of d plan to raise money for the
proposed Panama Exposition at
New Orleans. Among other
things he said:
81 understand there is a meet
ing to welcome Us back home.
1T is not my intention to dis
courage the peoph of Louisiana,
but | believe the best way to ac-
compIish a thing is by plain talk
and speech. What was done in
Washington was nothing. There
is not a man who went to Wash
ington who is not firmly convinc-
ed that we can get the exposition
if we want it. Other cities want
it. | believe it is perfectly true
that if a vote ~ere taken in Con-
gress as to where Congress would
prefer to have the exposition that
there is no doubt New Orleans
would win over al competitors.
There is no doubt the president
Of the United States would rath-
er sign that bill than any other.
But if we want it we've got to
make up our minds to pay for it.
'Delegations to Washington
and jollificaiion meetings ON the
return will not do it.
eve have the site. We have
the logical point. but what we've
got to do if we make up our minds
to have this exposition, we've got
to go down in our pockets and
dig Remember you can't bore a
big hole with9a gimlet. 1t will
take a large augur.
eff we fail to get it, We will
have overlooked an opportunity
Of a lifetime. The whole State Is
throbbing with new life. The
epes Of 1the capitalists Of ,he
world are on Louisiana. All the
great bugaboos are gone, and it's
Gods blessing that they are gone
for ever.
'Our sewerage and drainage
enterprises are better known in
the North than here at home. This
exposition would bring millions
to Louisiana. 1t will reclaim our
waste lands. 1t will make this

GREAT CHEMICAL STATE.

New Orleans, April 1.--Louisi-
ana has been declared by DIR.
David Day, of the United States
Geological Survey, who is at the
Grunewald Hotel, to have natural
resources that fit it for being de-
veloped into the greatest center
for chemical manufactures IN the
world.
DR.. Day is here now on a pleas
ure trip and he is the guest Of
General +. +. Myles. but he has
previously made himself familiar
with the geological formation OF
the State, and with its mineral de-
posits, and on this information he
bases his belief in the possibility
of developing big chemical man
ufactories. Soda, sulphuric acid
and fertilizing products, he said,
would probably be the chief pro-
ducts manufactured.

city one ofthe greatest on the
American continent. Every dollar
spent on this exposition will be
an investment that will return q
hundred fold to all the peofie OF
the state.
Time for talk has past; the
time for action is here. Every
parish, | believe, will Join hands
10 get this fexposI ion, not for
New Orleans, but for Louisiana.
There is but one way | know of
10 raise money and that is by tax
alton. If you depend upon volun-
tary contributions the exposition
IS an idle dream.
AS business proposition sub
init the question to the people of
the state; bet them pass upon it,
and say whether they want it and
are willing to pay for it.
This is too big a proposition
TO be shouldered upon any one
man or any one organizations oi
he stafe.
DO you want your state to
Stagnate or do You want it to ad-
vance with the progress Of the
times? Commercial organizations
Of every city of the State must
take it up and educate their pe0-
pie, and finally it must be set
lied beeore |the people. | be
lieve the time has passed when
the people can be frightened from
a good enterprise by taxation,
and | believe III this instance,
when properly presented to the
people they will aprov. it over
whelmingly.
"Our Legislature meets iii May
and whatever legislation is neces-
sary must be presented and dis
cussed before that meeting. Let
the Legislature submit the ques-
ton to the people whether they
want the exposition or not.
I'VE who went to Washington
believe we can get this exposition
if we are able to say to the gov
ernment: We've done our
share; now you do yours.
"Other cities and states can
and will offer more money. but
let us exceed them in spirit and
unan.mity of our effort. The
Lord helps those who hep them
selves. Congress, while not the
Lord, is willing to help those who
help themselves. That is what
We must do.
"We all take pride in our state.
and in this jewel that sets on the
bauk of the Mississippi River.
Our people are awake all over th;s
state; taey are awak. to our tre-
mendous possibilities. They feel
that the money spent in the de-
velopment of this State viii be an
investment on which their chill
dren and grandchildren will draw
interest for a hundred years.
The governor s clear-cut express
sions and Endorsement, and his
plan of raising the money by tax
alton was roundly applauded.

BEST BUSINESS BOOSTER.

Now, when we all thoroughly
comprehend and realize that keep
ing money at home circulating is
what causes prosperity, then it IS
certain that raising what we can
on the farm for home use, manu-
featuring what we can for home
use and buying from home people,
farmers and manufacturers, will
become the general custom and
then we won't need any boosters
for good business for we will have
good business as a permanent res
ident.-Lafayette Advertiser.

PROFITABLE FAD.

Poultry breeding has become q
fad in Lake Charles and Jennings.
In the latter city you are not in
the social swim unless you have
coop of chickens somewhere on
the place and in Lake Charles
they know more about chicken
pedigrees than they do about
bridge. In Crowley the only so
cial distinction connected with
poultry is the fact that it is prima
facie evidence that you are indie
pendently rich it you indulge in
fried chicken or soft boiled eggs
for breakfast.-Crowl Signal.

Will run pineapples from the Bahamas

start on their voyages and are expected
to arrive back at Baltimore early in

on the Bahama Islands, the large IN
crease IN the quantity Of the fruit
grown in Florida and other southern
States and the admission of plneapples
from the Territory of Hawaii have III
the past two or three years practically
ruined the pineapple importing business

and the speedy little fruit runners have
been forced to seek other trade.

FRIDAY AND No. 13
ARE LUCKY NOW
Somebody Has Discovered That
Good Fortune, Not Bad, IS
in Both of Them.

Friday and the number "13'
have long been held to be specially
unlucl1y, says the New Orleans Picay-
une. This evil reputation came evident
ly from the Last Supper and Cruel
fxion Of the Saviour.
At that memorable meal there were
thirteen at the table, one of whom be
traycd his Lord to a cruel death, while
the Crucifixion occurred on Friday
These events were doubtless in due
course ordained for the salvation OF
mankind, and they were the forerunners
OF beuefcent results to the entire world,
but it is no surprising fact that the
atrocious acts by which they were
brought to pass should have resulted
in universal human reprobation.
Nevertheless, Friday has been a most
fortunate and Hateful day in the his
tory of the New World, while 10 has
always been the lucky number of the
United States, so that while they may
have been counted accursed in the Old
| World. they are identified with the
most important and famous events in
the New
Let us give a little attention to the
part that Friday has played in the his
tory Of our country.
1t was on Friday, August 3, 1892, that

seas without a storm
1t was on Friday that Henry VII. o

From the Birmingham Ledger
With the admission Of the two Terri
tories. Arizona and New Mexico, there
are forty-eight States in the Union.
When the United States was consolidated
into a government there were thirteen
States which agreed to go into 1t for q
more perfect union" Since then the
other States have been admitted one by
one or two by two.
Vermont was the first State admitted
to the Union after it became a Union:
that was in 1871 After that Kentucky
came In in 1872; Tennessee. in 1896. That
made the Union body of sixteen States
when the~new century started in 1900
Ohio came in in 1905, and was never for
maily admitted" and proclaimed. Then
came Louisiana. in 1872; Indiana, in 1916;
Mississippi, in 1917; Illinois, in 1915; Ala
bama, in 1919; Maine, in 1920. and Mis-
souri,, in 1921. That made Union OF
twenty-four States. Arkansas was ad-
mitted in 1896; Michigan. in 1897; Florida
became a State in 1915; Texas. in 1916;
Iowa in 1916: Wisconsin. in 13iS.
California became a State in 1850, far
from any other State though it was; Min
nesota came in in 1888; Kansas came in
bloody in 1861; West Virginia was cut
out of Virginia in 1864 II was nine years
before another State was admitted Col
orado became a State in lS76. Then, after
years. the Dakotas were admitted, with
Montana and Washington, in 1SS9. Only
this once were so many States admitted
IN group. Idaho and Wyoming came in
in 1850. Utah was admitted in 1885, and
now. in 1910. we have the last two Ter
ritories admitted.
This final admission of Territories
makes ii possible to arrange the stars on
the national flag in symmetrical manner
and that Will mark the end of the growth
Of the Union. All Of the States are In
the Union, ana the United States is
grown.

Mayor Busse Can't Find Citizens to
Act on school Board.
From the Chicago Record-Herald.
Mayor Busse stil is seeking seven pa
triotic Chicagoans willing to devote por-
ton Of their time 10 running the city
schools. So far the mayor has not been
able to get together enough names to AL
his list, and there is a possibility that the
school board viii go over the summer va
cation with its old membership.
The mayor was expected TO present his
list Of appointments at the meeting Of
the city council last week He failed 10
do so and the board adjourned until July
20, in the hope that the appointments
would have been made then and the new
board could be organized. 1t seems now
that they may be disappointed.
Just why appointments 10 the board
should go begging is not explained but
Mayor Busse has admitted that snags
have been encountered, ard it is assumed
that some Of the persons 10 whom the
jobs have been offered have not found it
convenient to accept.
