The Donaldsonville Rally.

The keynote of the speeches delivered
by the orators at Donaldsonville on the
occasion of the Michel Rally. on Satur-
day September 18th, was sane and safe
government. To the mind of any fair
unprejudiced judge, these speakers drove
home the conviction that practical con-
servatism, as opposed to fanatical theor-
ism, is the demand of the hour in govern
mental affairs in this State.
Mr.. Philip Werlein, former president
of the New Orleans Progressive Union.
voiced this demand for the business in
terests of New Orleans; Mr.. Henry L..
Fuqua, leading hardware merchant of
East Baton Rouge, echoed it in behalf
of the business interests of the country
parishes; Col John P. Sullivan, grand
| exalted ruler of the Elks of the United
States and leading attorney of New
Orleans. presented the demand in behalf
of his profession. The speech of Hon. +.
N. Sims, of Ascension, who managed the
Wilkinson campaign in 1908. breathed
an appeal for conservative public admin
istration and Gen. Albert Estopinal Con-
| gressman from the First Louisiana Dis
trict, spoke along the same lines.
| The manner in which the thousands
of enthusiastic Democrats, gathered to
hear the addresses, applauded the senti-
ments of the orators, showed conclusive
ly that the chief concern of the people
at this time is an era of State govern
ment that will not disturb business con-
ditlons with experimental legislation
The return of prosperity in Louisiana Is
SO marked AS to awaken the attention oi
even rie most careless observer Of busl
ness history. 1t is natural. therefore
that the people of the State should view
with disfavor any policies OF government
which are calculated to retard or impede
the current of commerce and agriculture
That the business interests OF the State
believe in John r. Michel is undeniable
1t was shown at Donaldsmville AS never
before A solid carload of New Orleans
business men went to the Ascension CITY
to put stop to the report, industri,msly
circulated by Mr.. Miehel's political enc
mics, that his claim of business indorse
ment was unsupported by the facts. Al
addition to this delegation. scores OF bus
mess men accompanied the parties from
their city wards to Danaldsonville rally
The character of this great gathering
OF the Democracy at DoDaldsonville-
the largest, perhaps. in recent pohtica
history-conveys lesson to the people
1t was representative, huge and enthu
siastic. 1t stamped Mr.. Miehels candi
dacy, as nothing else could have done
, with the mark of Democratic approval
Not even the enforced absence of thu
favored candidate (due to the very re
cent death of his beloved wife) coul'
serve to dampen the ardor or dim tn
enthusiasm of the stalwarts who gather
ed at DonaIdsonville. Every mention o
Mr.. Michel's name evoked prolonge'
cheering; he was the hero of the occasion
The Donaldson rally was grea
8 success. Donaldsonville never entertain
ed such crowd before it is doubtful
il it will ever do 80 in a political cam
& paign again. 1t was a Michel triump
and marks the formal opening of wha
gives every promise of being trium

Safeguards for Marriage.

That there should be more restrie-
tions thrown about the marriage rela :
ton is the firm opinion of most stu
dents of the subject, says the Journal
of the American Medical Association.
A very pointed remark is contained in
the report of the Vice Commission OF
Chicago, a book to which We shall
probably refer more at length later.
The report SAYS:
An application for license of any
kind. whether II be TO eonstruct a
house, run push-cart, peddle shoe-
strings or keep a dog, must be accom-
panied with evidences that the applicants
are responsible and reliable agents. But
for a marriage license, one person, unat-
tended and unknown and, as far as one
can know, an epileptic. degenerate, or
who has in his blood loathsome veneer
cal disease may pass mis- name through
a window with that of similarly ques-
tionable female, likewise unknown, and
be. granted the divine right to perpetuate
his kind in turn, thereby placing a bur-
den and blight on society and the COM
munity for generations to come.
Not all agree on the methods. but
as public opinion is educated to the
need for some modification of our pres
ent rules, there will come about the
possibility of improving conditions.

DOCTORS ENDORSE
Newbro's Herpicide

When a doctor endorses preparation
it means more than an ordinary testi-
monial. His opinion is always that OF
the professional man devoted to the
welfare of the people.
DR.. ]. J. Boyd, Covington, Tenn.
says: a feel it my duty to write this
for the benefit of those suffering from
dandruff In the average case few
applications of Newbro's Herpicide will
remove all dandruff 1t is advisable to
continue its use for several weeks. =
The words of ]. B. Thompson, NJ
D., No Burrough Place, Cor. Hollis
ST., Boston, Mass, are not less enthusi-
astic: q can only speak in praise OF
Newbro's Herpicide. 1t is all that is
claimed and perhaps more. Herpicide
not only cleanses the scalp but bright
ems the hair, gives it life and makes
1t SOFT"
DR.. T. A. Moore. Duncan, Ariz..
writes of his experience: My scalp
was in places covered by patches OF
dry, scaly material and the itching was
incessant. Since using Herpicide all
these evils have disappeared and my
hair is soft, smooth and growing. Hair
has grown on spots before but thinly
covered"
Newbro's Herpicide is the original
remedy to kill the dandruff germ and
stop falling hair. The terrible itching
which goes with dandruff is allayed
almost at once.
Herpicide is for sale at Drug Stores
and one dollar size bottles are guaran-
teed Applications may be obtained at
the leading barber shops. Be sure you
get genuine Herpicide. Send 10c in
postage for sample and book to The

Editorial Comment
Can Taft Fool the Farmers?

(Somerset Independent Reporter.)
No matter what President Taft may
say the farmers of Maine and New
England know what To expect when
the products from vast areas of viz
gin soil are dumped upon our mar
kets. They have been all through
that experience during the period of
frenzied railroad building in our own
great West. and once is enough.
Maine agriculture is not yet back to
where II was when the decline set in,
and there is a substantial distance to
climb yet.
Probably the lumber and paper
interests are aiding the farmers in
opposing reciprocity. so would ev-
cry other interest protest if it was
in for the same raw deal. So should
every man rise up in opposition to
revising the tariff with a sledgeham
mer The American public is weary
of this wrangling over the tariff
question. and they want it taken out
of politics.
After years and years of agitation.
Congress was induced TO create
tariff board with power to get a.
the facts schedule by schedule. When
this was accomplished President
Taft announced himself as opposed
to further meddling with the tariff
until this board should be prepared
to report. Instead of standing con-
sistently by that admirable declara-
ton. he has precipitated one of the
worst muddles that our Congress
sional history can show. He threw
away his one great opportunity when
he signed the Payne Aldrieh law.
Now he would like to reeoup his
political fortunes at the expense of
the farmers, but he talks as If he
already realized his coming defeat.

Sexual Hysi.n. in Austrian Schools.

In this country, We usually credit
ourselves with progressive ideas, says
the Journal of the American Medical
Association editorially. Americans
who take any note of affairs in the
OLD World, however. sometimes find
that while We have been dallying with
progressive ideas, the forward step has
been taken in Europe. In view OF the
discussion in regard to the possibility
of introducing instruction on sexual
hygiene into our public schools. it is
Interesting to observe that this step
has already been taken in Austria
as win be seen by the letter from our
Vienna correspondent in this issue
For three years instruction on this
topic has been given, In connection
