JUDGE E. G. HUNTER AND GOV
ERNMENT- BY COMMISSION.

,
held in Alexandria, La, an election at
which was submitted the proposed Gov
eminent By Commission plan, which was
defeated, the votes for being 227 and
against 327, a majority against of 100.
Over this result there has been some
gleeful expressions by individuals in
Shreveport who would wiring comfort
from this Alexandra result in the as
suaging, if possible, their soreness aris-
ing from the adoption of the Commits
sion Form IN Shreveport by majority
as decisiyeiy significant as it was over
whelming
As il would seem cruel to take
any comfort from the individuals
who are larnenting over this pro-
gression in municipal government,
We will leave them unnolested in
their enjoyment of their visionary an
ticipation of the future
It would seem that the defeat of the
proposed Government by Commission at
Alexandra was secured through ifnpas-
stoned appeals to prejudice emphasized
with the misrepresentation that it was a
prohibition movement, and if carried,
the poor old mar" would be deprived
of his beer and bis whisIey.'
The rankness of this fabrication is
only exceeded BY the stupidity Of some
of the men who may have been led to
believe Il.
As fact, which it is not possible to
disprove, the commissioners of a COM
mission form Of government may be all
saloon keepers or sellers of booze" or
they may be doctors or lawyers or bus
ifless men, or men of every class of So
ciety, if on being candidates the saloon
keepers or the boozers were TO receive
a majority of the votes cast at such
election, they would then become the
commissioners

or boozers were to be installed into of
