Men Versus Platforms.

ST. Landry COmmoner: The States
in trenchant editorial in its issue
of June 7, entitled THE Debauching
of Louisiana" says:
Foster, Thornton, Broussard and
Pujo, as their record and their pres
ent attitude on Canadian reciprocity
shows, are to all intents and pur-
poses as good Republicans as Root
of New York and Gallinger of New
Hampshire, etc. 1t remains to be
seen whether Governor Sanders
who is also candidate for the Sem
ate, will be found lodging the ma
tional Democratic platform during
the campaign to the same interests. y
The Commoner predicts that when
the Great Promiser steps out on a
platform it will be as elean-cut and
sawed a platform as ever emerged
from Democratic saw mill; it will
be redolent with the odor of pine
and Democratic sanctity. The ques-
tion that will then arise in the
minds of the electorate is: Will the
pledges and promises of the Pro-
found Promiser be kept? We have
only one guide for the future and
that is the past. Did he keep the
pledges of his State platform? II
not, will it not be safer to stick to
our near-Democrats who have at
least broken no promises, but hew
to the line laid down in their cam
paign speeches?
In this coming senatorial race
men will count more than platforms.

WON'T YOU TELL US WHY?
The Methods of the Bosses in Reach
ing Conclusions.

Winfield Progress: The country
lieutenants of the New Orleans ring
are now contending that the Demo-
cratic Good Government League
movement is not Democratic be-
cause Hon. John NJ Parker, one of
the conspicuous leaders Of the
league, voted for Mr.. Taft for pres
ident.
That is going a long ways for an
argument, gentlemen, but if you are
willing to admit that your method
of reaching this conclusion is cor
rect then the people Of the State
will be compelled to vote for the
leagues candidate, no matter who
he may be, for according to your
own logic you are worse than Re-
publieans, for you and your ring are
directly responsible for Dudenhef-
er, Letten, Whitaker, the recently
convicted New Orleans election
thieves and a thousand other Grim
inals- caught and uncaught- and
you can not deny the responsibility.
Letten was the protege of Capt.
John Fitzpatrick, the old war-horse
of the ring, and Letten stole a hun
dred thousand dollars of the States
money and squandered Il on a negro
wench.
Ferdinand Dudenhefer succeeded
his father as leader of the Eighth
Ward and stole $4,000 of the
States money and squandered it on
"a Ham Tree" chorus girl.
Whitaker was the especial pro-
Itege Of Martin Behrman who held
him in the office of chief of police
of New Orleans in spite of absolute
proof of numerous crimes and until
he attempted to commit premedi-
tated murder, and even then the
Behrman-ring influence was exerted
to shield him from the consequences
Iof that crime, and Martin Behrman
is the big chieT' of the New Or
leans ring.
All Of these and d thousand other
crimes have come from the leaders

WEATHER AND CROPS
Cotton Will Need Rain in Near Flu.
ture-Cofn Suffering for Rain.

Picayune: The whole country has
experienced during the past week
unprecedentedly hot weather for
this season Of the year. While June
may reasonably be expected to de-
velop the greatest heat Of the year,
as the sun shines more hours in that
month in the northern hemisphere
than in any other, still past records
show it is not the month Of greatest
heat, as commonly daily showers
have the effect Of keeping down the
temperature. That such unusual
heat, coupled as it has been with dry
weather, should give cause for anx-
iety as to the effect on the crops is
but natural.
According to the reports there has
been little rain in the cotton belt
except in the eastern or Atlantic
section, where good showers have
fallen. Practical rainlessness in the
central and western portions of the
belt has been accompanied by high
temperatures, as much as 100 de-
grees of heat and above having been
recorded over wide stretches in
Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Louis
lana and Mississippi. Cotton has
stood these conditions we'll, owing to
The fine condition of the fields and
the moisture remaining in the sub
| soil as a result of the heavy rains
| of April and the first half of May.
| At the same time it is admitted that
cotton is beginning to suffer, and
unless rains are experienced in the
near future deterioration seems in
| leyitable,
| The corn crop is already suffering
from the lack of moisture, and un-
less the situation is soon relieved
the fine prospects for corn crop
will have to be materially modified.
The dry weather is also retarding
rice, particularly as low water in
the river compels resort taspump-
ing in the river section Of the rice
belt. Small crops, particularly veg
etables, are also suffering from the
ldrouth and heat.
In the sugar belt the weather has
been almost rainless, the few show
ers reported here and there being
hardly sufficient to do much good
The dry condition of the soil is re-
tarding the growth of the cane, al
though the crop as whole is not
yet suffering as much as corn. A
good soaking rain is needed at once
to insure the proper progress of the
crop. The fields are we'll cultivated
and in a position to profit exten-
lsiyely by rain.

Of the ring ward bosses and their
lieutenants. Now, gentlemen, ac-
cording to your own logic, are you
guilty? If you are not, then won't
you tell US why?
Pray tell us what, in your Qpln-
ion, constitutes Democracy? What
are the qualifications that would
.entitle one to be a candidate for
Governor of Louisiana? Is voting
enough ward heelers in a state pri-
mary to cause a city ward to re-
verse itself by 80 majority in thirty
days-as Mr.. Michel did III the last
state primary when the ward bosses
stole the lieutenant gUvernOrship
from Jim Bailey-me Of the neces-
sary qualifications? Is helping to
steal an election in your opinion a
prerequisite to being a Democrat
and a candidate for governor? Or,
may be it is holding a fat state Of
flee for twenty years and sailing
down a hundred thousand dollars
that makes a Democrat and pre-
eminently qualities one to be the
rings" standard bearer. Won't you
tell us why?
Well, gentlemen, from your logic
Judge Hall is not qualified; he is
clean; he hasn't stole any elections
he hasn't held a fat office for twenty
years nor has he amassed a fortune
|Of 100000; one of his supporters
did vote for the Republican candi-
date for president, and for that rea-
son the Good Government League
movement is not Democratic, nor is
Judge Hall to be compared with
John Michel.
God save the mark. It's a pity
Louisiana didn't have more men who
are similarly disqualified.
