WE SEND REPUBLICANS TO


If Louisiana is a Democratic State
It is false to itself, when it sends repre-
sentatives to Washington who follow
the leadership of Aldrich and Cannon
and Lodge and Dalzell. If Louisiana is
a Republican State, what is the use for
it to masquerade in Democratic livery
Why not put ourselves in a situation
to receive the full benefits of member
ship in the Republican organization
A man may be a Republican and
still be honest He may believe in d
protective tariff and all the other here
sizes Of the Republican party and still be
honest If. however, he believes in q
purely protective tariff which has never
been sanctioned by the Democratic
party, the Democratic party is no place
for him, and he would, it seems to me,
be in more congenial company in the
Republican party The anomalous posi-
ton of Louisiana in national politics is
making it a by-word and an object OF
derision among the other Democratic
states of the Union"
The clip quoted is portion of the
speech of Hon. Robert Roberts Jr, a
representative in the Legislature from
Minden, in his address to the State Press
Association in session at Lake Charles
It would seem from the reports that
some of the press men were Hurried"
BY Mr. Roberts bold remarks, but all he
said is true and viii be endorsed by
Democrats who are loyal TO the party's
pledges and principles
If we could only recall the so-calIed
Democrats who have been misrepresent-
ing Louisiana in Congress. But the con-
gressnen and the senators who have
been voting with Aldrich and Cannon
and Lodge and Dalzell must never again
be honored or vested with power and
authority TO inisrepresent the people
who constitute the Democracy of Louis
lana.

SMART BLOUSES
MUCH ELABORATED.
Well Chosen Color Schemes the
Secret Of Good Dressing.

The day Of the shirt waist, with its
simple pIaits and gathered sleeves, is
done, for awhile at least Summer
will bring back other blouses in white,
but the colored one will continue to be
made in the loose and sometimes care
less manner that prevails today.
| Most of them look as though they
had no lining, no inside belt, no shout
der straps.
They seem ready to fall off, and yet
they have grace which is peculiarly
their own. 1t is the grace Of drapery
and announcement.
The materials are arranged more ac-
cording to line and color than accord
ing to fit and cut. In effect the blouses
appear to be combination of extra
broad bands of various fabrics laid
across and up and down the figure.
The sleeves seem to be an accidental
part of the drapery dropping over the
arm. They do not show any seams or
outline the juncture Of the arm and
the shoulder
4
to find that she only has a blue blouse
clean when she is wearing brown suit.
The way to overcome this is to
choose ones waists rather carefully
after one has made up a plan for the
summer wardrobe If you make your
blouses now in haphazard fashion you
may be compelled to get suits and hats
to go with them, which is putting the
cart before the horse
Some women keep to one color
scheme as nearly as possible through
out the season They know that blue
and green and black possibly are their
chief colors, and they hold to these
regardless Of what the dyers and the
manufacturers produce. This is the
secret of really good dressing, and you
will find upon observation that it is
the method Of nearly all women who
are conspicuous for taste in clothes
II you know your own mind quite
thoroughly in regard to the colors you
will choose for your spring and sum
mer suits, then 1t is quite wise to go
ahead with your waist, but If not it is
best to conf1ne oneself to the choice
Of black. pin dotted with white. and
dark bright blue. which goes with such
a quantity of other colors.
The big bands are IN very good style
this year. and they are among the
chief colors introduced on white ma
terials. Golden brown. soft shades of
green and many tones of blue are used,
as wen as cerise. pomegranate red and
any Of the new wine tones.
Pink is to be in high fashion this
summer ii all shades but the pastel
ones. Killarney pink. coral. flame
and watermelon are among the tones
we viii see most used on sheer white
blouses OF muslin, marquisette and ba-
tiste. Finely dotted swiss will also
come into favor as fabric for waists,
and It win have many adherents. as it
wears and washes well and looks ex-
cepki0nally attractive under linen suits
