Is LOUISIANA A DEMOCRATIC
gTATE2

If the gtiagp pOlltleal Is hPplioo
10 Louisiana by the majority record
cd at state and national elections
then the status of the State can adj
nit of no doubt and therefore Louis
lana Ii Democratic.
indeed, there is only one party IL
Louisiana. and the dominant party is
Democratic.
In opposition 10 this party are the
struggling few III comparison which
Ii designated aud known as Repub-
Iican.
II the State. in national and state
elections, Is Democratic, the Repub7
heans derive all The political advan-
tages which come from their party
BY virtue of the fact that the Presi=
dent and the national administration
Is Republican.
Since the national administration
il Republican, II is only fair that
whatever be the patronage for dis
tribution should be divided with the
faithful and the loyal Of that party
and not given TO Democrats.
Il II unuuestiened That Louisiana
Ii Democratic, and therefore it's repa
raseniatiyes in Congress should be
Democratic, bull unfortunately, to
our diseredit, Louisiana Is repre-
senled by men Inverted IN Democracy
who are always ready to vote with
Republicans when allured from
Democratic principles and Demo-
cratic teachings BY their eonBtfuea
lion of protection.
For instance. We have pujo and
Broussard who ore as good Republi-
cans as Payne, and we have Estopi-
nal and Ransdell who have been III
strong sympathy with the Republic
cans on the taritf issue. and we have
Watkins who has record on lum-
Der protection, and we have Foster
and Thornton, the successor Oh Nc
Emery. who wien alive was noted
for his Republican proclivities, and
Foster and Thofnton's Democracy
does moi respond 10 the dictates Of
The principles OF the party as enun4
eiated at The National Convention Of
the party,
The whole contention slmmered
down to a few lines ts simply this:
Il Louisiana Ii d Democratic State,
then gil its representatives iii Con
gfess should be Democrats aud the
party should moi pretend to be what
it ii not.
The attitude Of Louisiana is, In d
sense, ridiculous.
Are there not men IN Louisiana
who are Democrats and who should
be returned to Congress, House and
senate, because they are Democrats
and are ID full accord with the prin-
ciples and the teachings Of the
partyg
Il may be conceded that the con4
graasnen from the rice and suga,,
districts may be Inclined To the lee
publican theory Of protection, but
the two senators from Louisiana
should be untalnted with Republic
caniam and should Do strictly and
uneompraniisingly Democrats.

Statistics and Receipts Show Cattle Sup.

Chicagd.-A record high price was paid
for range cattle and stock raisers say
the cattle supply is diminishing steadily.
4. N. Heinrich, of Lodge Grass, Mont,
received $3.50 a hundred for twenty
steers that had eaten only the grass
of the range. The previous high price
was $3.50 paid in October, 1909, to an
other Montana stock raiser.
Other prices paid for stock, indicat-
ing the high price trend, are:
Steers, $6.15@7.5o; tailings, $500;
heifers, $5.65'.
The daily receipts being nearly 1000
head day, fewer than at this time last
year, according to statisticians for the
Union Stock Yards and Transit Com
pany, are following he trend of the last
few years, indicating that range cattle
are decreasing in number.

Stubbed Toe Dropped Plate Containing

tripped in church Sunday and falling

collection plate, which was piled high

Mr.. Morgan, who is senior warden at
st. Georges Protestant Episcopal church,
was about to pass the plate to Bishop
Greer for the offertory benediction when
he stubbed his toe over misplaced pew
cushion on the floor just behind the
chancel rail and fell on his hands and
knees. Silver coins, bills and envelopes
containing checks, which Mr.. Morgan had
collected from the congregation, were
scattered over wide area, and the silver
plate, which he juggled with desperately

CUMM|NS CRIES
WHEN CONVICTED
PENALTY IS SENTENCE OF FROM
FIVE TO TEN YEARS.
Breaks Into Tears When He Is Taken to
Tombs-Asserts He Has Done
No Wrong.
(CopyriEht. 1911l

New York.-William j. Cummins, the
former Tennessee promoter, and ;ecent
directing head of the Carnegie Trust
Company, was found guilty of the theft
OF $4,000 from the Nineteenth Ward
Bank by the jury before which he has
been on trial for the last five weeks.
Cummins seemed stunned by the re-
suit. His attitude throughout the trial
was one of apparent assurance and cheer
fulness. After the verdict was an
nounced the prisoner remained standing
in an evident daze, as Judge Davis
thanked the jury. When told by court
attendant that he might sit down, he
said huskily: "Thank you, sir, thank
you," and sank heavily into his chair.
When his pedigree was taken, the
convicted bankers replies were scarcely
audible, but before he was led from the
some of his composure.
At the Tombs, however, he broke down
and sobbed.
''It is not myself that am thinking
about-there are Others" he said, as he
sat weeping on a bench in the warden's
office. Then rising to his feet, he ex-
claimed, fiercely:
"The fight is just beginning. I feel
that | have done nothing wrong ard
am confident that if l was confronted
with the same circumstances again /
would do the same thing"
The state holds that Cummns had
$4,000 of this fund checked to himself
and that he used it to bolster up the
finances of his various industrial COM
panies in the South which the state at
torney referred to as paper" companies.
The peanlty for Cummins' offense is
an indeterminate term of from five to
ten years as the maximum sentence.
Cummins is SO years old and has a wife
and married daughter.

FRISCO MAKES DEAL
WITH THE |. & N.
SECURES LINE INTO NEW ORLEANS
40 MILES SHORTER.
N. O., M. & C. Will Be Extended From
Point North of Mobile Into New
Orleans.

New York.-Having given up hope OF
an adjustment of the quarrel with the
Missouri Pacific, the Frisco threw over
its relationship with the Gould road
and made quick deal with the Louis
vile and Nashville for line to New
Orleans. 1t was B. +. Yoakum's an
swer to the notice sent to him by the
Texas and Pacific several days ago say
ing that it could not live up to its con-
tract. He said that he regarded the
arrangement with the Louisville and
Nashville as being more favorable, since
it made the line to New Orleans forty
nine miles shorter and provided the
quickest route from Chicago to the gulf.
"The new plan," said Mr.. Yoakum,
gives to the Frisco a line from Memphis
to New Orleans forty-nine miles shorter
than the one over the Missouri Pacific
lines west of the river, contracts for the
use of which the Missouri Pacific and
Texas and Pacific have not carried out.
A saving of forty-nine miles to each trair
is worth saving.

BANKERS WILL
HANDLE COTTON
HAVE RAISED 100000 TO GO TO
COTTON STATES.
Crop-Charge Win Be 81
Bale.

New York.-New York bankers who
have been comforting here with repre-
sentatives of the governors conference
and the Southern Cotton Congress an.
nounces that they have- raised fund
of $5O,ooo,O 600 to be placed Immediately
in the cotton belt states -fof the purpose
of handling the cotton crop of 1911 and
enabling growers to participate in any
rise in the market.
The negotiations were conducted ON
behalf Of the South by Gov. Emmett
O'Neal of Alabama, Senator Bailey of
Texas, who has been advising his col.
leagues as to the legal aspects of the
proposition; E. J. Watson, president OF
the Permanent Southern Cotton Con-
gress, and Commissioner of Agriculture
of South Carolina, and Clarence Ousley
of Fort Worth, Texas, representing tht
governor of his state.
The plan proposes to advance the
grower $25 per bale upon his cotton,
based ON the market value at the time
of the loan. No interest will be paid
upon the loan, the only charge being 81
bale, which is regarded as legitimate
minimum charge for expense of grading
and handling. The cotton is not held,
not taken from the channels of trade,
but is placed at the best advantage.
The grower is given the right to desig-
nate the day of sale prior to January
1, 1913, and will participate in any ad-
vance in price to the extent of three
fourths of the rise of the market.

FOUGHT WOUNDED MOOSE
Hunter Kills 1,50S-Pound Animal With
Hunting Knife.


East Grand Forks, Minn.--Attacked
by moose which he had wounded. Ed
ward Lodgard, of this city, saved him
self from death only by engaging in
a fierce combat with the animal and
finally staying it with knife. The
moose had fallen to the ground when
shot. Running forward with a knife
ready to slit open the neck, Lodgard
was taken by surprise as the animal sud
denly rose and charged him. He raised
his rifle to fire but the hammer fell on
an empty shell.
With not moment to spare, Lodgard
struck the animal across the nose with
the butt of the gun, stunning the moose.
After thrilling struggle, Lodgard
dashed between the animals front legs
and stabbed it to death. The moose was
handsome specimen, weighing 1868
pounds.
