jority Of thespeople of this State.
Mr.. Pujo, in his Amite City
speech, did not make any new
point, nor did he bring any new
charge; but he did forget to
mention one very important fact,
which was that on January /,
1907, one year preceding the
Democratic primary of 1908,
retired from the practice Of law
and voluntarily gave up a lucra-
tive practice. There is quite q
difference between being a re-
tanned attorney for cor
%porations and being employed by
them in certain suits. There is
quite a difference in being in a
position to make a distinction
between what suits you will
handle and in being at the beck
and call of corporations.
Mr.. Pujo, in his speech at
Amite, declined to answer the
question which I propounded to
him in my Baton Rouge speech,
viz: How many corporations dc
you represent and how much do
you receive per annum therefor?'
Mr.. Pujo refused to answer this
question upon the ground that it
is none Of my concern what his
law firms private arrangements
with their corporate clients are.
It may not be my concern, but il
certainly to the concern Of the
electorate of this State.
While unwilling to answer
my question, Mr.. Pujo propounds
still another question to me, viz;
I want you to say to the people
of Louisiana, If you are elected
to the United States Senate,
whether you will accept profes.
sional employment from a corpo.
ration This question has al.
ready been answered by me If
various speeches., but in order
that Mr.. Pujo, in common with
the rest Of the people, may
known my position exactly,
take this opportunity of declar.
ing that, after I am elected tt
the Senate, I will not accept any
corporation business whatsoever,
devoting my time and attention
to representing the people Oh
this State in the Senate of the
United States"

The candidacy Of Governor
Sanders for the Democratic
nomination for the United
States Senate against Messrs.
Puio and Broussard is gaining
ground with every speech that
he delivers, and he has been
very active in his canvass dur
ing the past two months. De-
spite the fact that the opposi-
ton, including the Good Govern
ment League, has based its en-
tire reason for existence on the
bitter partisanship displayed to-
wards the Governor by their
leaders and the disappointed
ofice-seekers, and notWithstand-
ing that not only his opponents
for the Senate but the League has
been assiduously endeavoring to
prejudice the voters of the state
against him, he has been steadi-
ly and surely brushing aside the
arguments advanced against his
candidacy and his election is al
ready assured.
The following article referring
to his campaign for the Senator
ship, has just been PUBLISHED at
Baton Rauge, and a careful per-
usal of it will prove interesting:
Governor Sanders declaration
that he will, if elected Senator,

LOUISIANA'S Ian DS
SUPERIOR TO THOSE
OF HOLLAND.

Albert Phenis, the well-known
and well-informed special cor
respondent of the Manufacturers
Record, writes to that publica-
ton from New Orleans under
date of September q, as follows:
Holland is a great country"
said Mr.. Edward Wisner, the
millionaire pioneer in Louisiana
reclamation work, just returned
from a trip abroad, but it isn't
anything like as great in natural
riches as Louisiana. When this
lower coast country, sometimes
called the Holland of America,
has been developed to the same
extent as Holland is today we
will have the richest, most pros
porous agricultural section on the
globe.
Although. in canals, levees
and dykes and the necessity for
pumping off water there is a
similarity in conditions and
methods, yet in character of soil
it seemed To me in going through
the country that the fens of
England which are drained or re-
claimed lands are more like our
Louisiana lands than are the
lands Of Holland.
In Holland there are vast
areas of clay lands, wholly I'M
fitted for anything but pasturage,
and which have probably never
had a pillow in them. | should
say the greater part of the
country is of such a character.
It is land which has been re-
claimed from the sea by the con-
struction of enormous dykes. In
some places the surface Of the
water is 20 feet above the level
of the land. But the Hollanders
make the most of everything.
The grass lands are covered with
dairy herds. The cattle are of
fine breeds, kept in good condi-
ton, and dairying is quite profit
able. Cheese-making is a we'll
developed industry, the high
priced Edam and pineapple
cheeses being a Holland speciality.
The cheese factories are numer-
Gus, usually not large. but equip

PLOT TO DYNAMITE
TAFT TRAIN IS
Fooled.

San Francisco, Oct. 16.-A re-
port here to-day by officials of
the Southern Pacific Railway
Company from a section foreman
of the road at Naples, CAL, gave
details Of the discovery of thirty
six sticks of dynamite under the
Cairtan viaduct, twenty miles
north of Santa Barbara, several
hours before President Taft's
special train passed over the
bridge en- route to Los Angeles
this morning. The dynamite
was found after the Waterman
engaged in a revolver battle with
two men who escaped.
The dynamite was discovered
at 2 o'clock this morning. The
presidents train passed over the
bridge at 5:51 o'clock. The
night Waterman saw two men
on the bridge shortly before 2
O'Clock. They were at the oppo-
site end of the 1,000-foot span,
and ran when ordered to halt.
The Waterman ran across the
bridge, firing several shots,
which were returned. After the
pair had escaped the Waterman
returned to the bridge and be-
gan an investigation. Near the
center of the span, lodged on one
of the supports of the viaduct,
he found the thirty-six sticks of
dynamite, with a ten-foot fuse
attached to one of the sticks.
He left the find untouched, going
Immediately to Santa Barbara
and notifying the officials.
Sheriff Wines, of Santa Bar
bara County, went Immediately
to the bridge with several depu-
ties, and removed the dynamite.
A general search for the men is
on.

ped with the best and most mod
ern machinery. This fact, by
the way, applies to all other
operations there. The old Dutch
windmill is present, to be sure,
but its usefulness is largely a
tradition. The real work of
pumping is done by machines Of
the most modern type.
II saw no such soil in Holland
as that Of the alluvial lands Of
Louisiana, although I saw lands
held at from $500 to $1,000 per
acre or more. Intensive cultiva-
ton is the rule, and there is
utilization of every kind of soil
in accordance with a~scertained
knowledge as to what it may be
best adapted to. I'd hate to say
what Louisiana lands will be
worth when the same methods of
cultivation are employed down
here.
There is a very general utili-
zation of the canals of Holland
for transporting produce, but
passenger conveyance is mostly
by rail, tram and vehicle. There
are good roads. as a rule, many
built along the levees and dykes.
They are mostly paved roads,
The native earth materials being
no better for good roads con-
struction than are ours in lower
Louisiana.
Asked if Hollanders are con-
sidering Louisiana as a desirable
place to come to, Mr.. Wisner
replied:
II don't suppose many people
in Holland among the farming or
what might be termed the pea
SAINT class ever heard of Louis
lana. I spent five days in Hol-
land, and very few of those /
talked with had any knowledge
of Louisiana and the possibilities
here.
Il believe it would be possible
to arouse a great interest in
Louisiana among those people,
nevertheless; but it would re-
quire a campaign of education.
Some well accredited representa-
tives would have to spend a con-
siderable length of time among
them, speaking their language
and demonstrating their entire
responsibility and c~redibility. In
that way an interest could be
worked up that would result in
an emigration movementof some
magnitude. The density Of the
St. Landry clarion. (Opelousas, La.) 1890-1921, 1911-10-21

population puts a tremendous
pressure on those who work for
a living, and if conditions here
were understood | have no doubt
we would see a well-defned, con-
tinued movement of Hollanders
to Louisiana lands. And what a
Paradise their thrift and industry
would create here!'

sUMNER REsoRT and CITY are LINKED TOGETHER BY TE EPHeNE

Telephone service, linking together city and country and shore,
lis never more appreciated than during the summer months.
While the business man Isl confined to his desk in the city, the
telenhone keeps him ii touch with wife and family, though they

During his own vacation the business man relies upon the tele-
phone. He is free from care, for he knows that he can be reached
at one BY telephone should important matters require his attention.
AT the vacation home also, the telephone proves SO convenient
in arranging games and outings with friends and ordering sup

All this Is possible because Bell Telephone service is universal.

tive, and so the disappointed promoter
feels justified in saying that mining is
dull. On the othr hand, let the an
nouncement be made that a sensational
strike has been made, in virgin terri
tory; and, if the report is verified, it is
wonderful the way that money will
pour into the new field for purchase
and investment. All of which goes to
show that interest is not lacking in
mining. and that the condition of the
industry is good.
Mining is what a man makes it. If
he is willing to work in order to make
a producer, he will find that mining is
in a prosperous condition. If he wants
to sell a prospect for a quarter of a
million, or incorporate a heavy com
pany on a property of doubtful value,
he will find conditions depressed

MINING

Mining, in the west, is in a prosper
GUS condition, or the industry is de-
pressed, according to the view of the
situation as taken from different stand
points. Since the panic of a few years
ago there has been a scarcity of money
for prospect development; but, when
it comes to heavy mining, there never
was a period, before, when such big
undertakings were being carried on as
at the present time. In order to prove
this assertion it is only necessary to
point to activities in two or three Utah
mining camps. Take Bingham, for in
stance. Nowhere else in the United
States is such heavy work going on,
and it would be hard to convince those
interested in this great camp that min
ing was dull in that section. In Tin
tic district, also, more work is now GO
ing on there than ever before; and,
there are at least a dozen camps in the
state where extensive operations and
development is the order of the day.
Ely, Nevada, is another point that is
teeming with life and vigor, and in
many localities throughout the west SO
much activity is in evidence that it
would be foolish to refer to them as
being dull and lifeless.
The trouble with a great many is
that they cannot distinguish the differ
ence between stock speculation and le-
climate mining; the difference be-
tween the incorporation of a company
with a capitalization of a million, on
property Of unknown value, and a min
ing enterprise that is producing and
paying dividends. just at this particu-
lar time the "~wild-cat'' 10 not attrac-

SCHEDULE X AS A REVENUE
PRODUCER

The Democrats in congress who,
aided by their insurgent Republican
allies, passed the Underwood wool
bill, seem to have entirely overlooked
the benefits accruing to the govern
ment by the present Schedule K as
a revenue producer.
During the past Ii years this SEIZED
ule has been one of the principal
sources of revenue to the government,
bringing to the treasury about 1885,
100000, and being exceeded as a money
Under the present tariff the credit of
the United States has become the best
Of any nation of the world, which fact
is in striking contrast to conditions
under the Wilson bill, which became a
law In 1894. Grover Cleveland s abject
surrender to Wall street, when he
was obliged to borrow $3.50, 000, 900 to
save the government from bankruptcy
is a matter of history.
Grover Cleveland and his party were
r~epudiated by the American people,
but the Democracy has never slept and
now threatens the country with the
same disaster it so narrowly averted in
1894.
Fortunately, however, it now seems
improbable that the Underwood bill
will pass the senate, but in the event
it does will no doubt be vetoed by
President Taft.
