GOOD ROADS.
The building and maintenance
OF good roads throughout the
State has received, at my hands,
more attention than any other
one thing, except, possibly, edu.
cation. I have met with great
encouragement from the body OF
the people, but have received the
most stubborn and malignant op-
position from many, whose activ-
tiles should have been directed
toward this important develop
ment of the State. The good
roads legislation passed by the
Legislature in 1910 stands today
as undoubtedly the best road
laws in the United States, and,
under them, Louisiana is des-
tined to have as fine a system of
public highways as any State in
the American Union.
LEVEES.
During my administration the
levees of the State have been
held intact and they are in finer
condition than ever before.
FACTORIES.
In my inaugural address I
recommended the exemption of
factories from municipal and pa
rochial taxation for a period of
ten years. The sentiment in the
Legislature was so strongly
against this exemption that no
legislation was ever proposed
along these lines. This is an in
stance where my views did not
prevail.
CHILD LABOR Avs.
[ declared in favor of the pro-
lection of child labor. The Legis-
lature passed a good child labor
law, in 1908. and in 1910 refused
to repeal or modify it.
IMMIGRATION.
During t h is administration,
everything has been done within
it's power to bring to this State
the white farmers of the North
and West, and every effort has
been made to advertise the adj
vantages of Louisiana and to
bring within her borders desir-
able immigrants to make this
their home naturalization. This
effort has been rewarded, and
they eyes of the whole country
are turned to Louisiana, and the
most desirable immigrant in the
World-the American citizen who
is dissatisfied with his present
locations seeking land in
today.
CAPITAL AND LABOR.
The relationship existing be-
tween capital and labor, during
this administration, has been
most cordial, and the peace at
the State has not been disturbed
by strikes or lockouts. / ap-
pointed a State Board of Concili-
alton and Arbitration and it has
done good work on several oc-
easion.
VETERANS OF THE LOST
CAUSE.
During the preceding admins
tration there was appropriated
for Confederate purposes $677,-
585. During this administration
there has been appropriated for
Confederate purposes S948, 1000
increase over the preceding
administration of S371,116. On
June 20, 1908, there were 2847
pensioners on the rolls, receiving
from SIT to S11 a quarter. There
are now 1866 pensioners on the
rolls all receiving SIT a quarter.
These figures speak for them
selves.

disappearance Of the "Diek

Of the interior department comes
the discovery that a full set Of

but by Delegate Wickersham Of
Alaska, Clifford Pinchot and by
Secretary of War, Henry L. slim
son. Yet Major j. b. Cavan-
augh Of the War department tes-
titled before the Graham com
mittee that the mays are not in

1t is believed by members of

conspiratOrs as soon as soon
as the present exposure was
threatened took means to have
moved from the government
files all discriminating evidence.
"The files have been tempered

That ''the reduction of sugar
duties would ruin the domestic
production Of cane sugar and that
free sugar would annihilate both
the cane and beet sugar indus
tries Of the country" is the cry
from that lusty hinged infant
the Sugar Trust.
In the name of the small
growers and producers the
Trust is whining and pulling for
a high tariff-for protection.
With protection the small, indie
pcndent interest has the happy
prospect of being absorbed, an
initiated, wiped out, as soon as
the tariff-Succored infant is ready
to smite its go-between.
EASY MONEY FOR STEEL

That the United States Steel
Corporation forces Independent
steel concerns to pay exorbitant
prices for hauling ore over its
roads is a point that the Steel
Trust Committee Of Inquiry will
investigate. The committee is
informed that the trust roads
charge enough for hauling ono
load of ore for an Independent
company to pay for transporting
two loads Of its own.
