Mr.. Delahoussaye, the Man
Of the Hour.

The coming campaign for parochial

Of commendable difference between
this and recent campaigns Is the fact
that an effort is being made to keep
down factional lines and com bi q ations.
Each candidate must stand or fall by
himself, If the understanding is faith
fully carried ont to the end.
One OF the most interesting parts Of
the political arena IL that part in which
the several candidates for the sheriff,s
office have lined up for three corner

result OF this campaign which will
mean more to the people than this
one. Three candidates have thus far
announced themselves and the line IN
~ As follows: The present encumbent,
Geo. Henderson; K. +. Delahoussaye
and VIM. Lassalle.
Mr.. Delahoussave hardly needs any
introduction to his own people at our
hands. lie has been for number Of
years devOtinR a considerable portion
OF hts time to public affairs, and this in
innate personal acquaintance has indi-
Gated to his mind many possible re-
forms in existing public ills, which he
proposes 10 lay before the voters for
their earnest consideration as the cam.
pa'gn progresses.
Immediately upon returning from
} school Mr.. Delahoussaye entered the
service Of DR.. J G. Mestayer, in the
then leading drug store OF this CITY,
lie gave twelve years uninterrupted
service here, till the death Of his father.
when. as the head Of the family, he
undertook the charge Of the affairs of

drug business and served two years

GERMANY HALTS ARBITRATION

A hitch in the world arbitration ne
gotiations is strongly probable. if the
attitude Of the British lion toward the
German eagle continues to grow in
fretfullness Chancellor Lloyd George
discusses the Moroccan question in a
spirit Of militancy which must be dis
concerting to those who supposed that
the question of national honor had
virtually been taken out of the keep
ing Of the chancelleries and invested
in the hands of The Hague tribunal.
In explanation Of the British change
OF temper, if not Of heart, We are told
that while Great Britain stands ready
to make great sacrifices in order to
clasp hands with the United States
in a move toward universal peace,
yet she cannot tie her hands in face
Of an attempt to isolate her as a
prime factor in the arbitrament of in
ternational questions affecting her
historic position.
Peace at that price," exclaimed
this most virile and potential of
English statesmen, would be humil-
iation intolerable for great country
like Great Britain to endure" Her
people rejoice at the success of ne
gotiations with the United Sta tes,
but it was more essential that Great
Britain, 'at all hazards" should hold
her own among the great powers.
Germany, it is understood, insists
that the British shall be shut out OF
any arrangement entered into with
despect to the Moroccan imbroglio a
demand the kaiser could but have for
seen would meet with rejection and
resistance. If Germany were to pre-
sist IN her mischievous attitude, the
caUsepof arbitration would be thrown
bacH4nd efnitely, for nobody could for
a moment doubt the nature of the
crisis which her action would lead
up to.
Germany's stand is scarsely ex-
plicable on this side of the Atlantic
With Great Britain, France and Rus
sia arrayed against her, she could
not hope to carry her point, what
ever it is, either through diplomacy
or force. Her desire to have Grea,
Britain eliminated from conference
between the parties to the Algeciras
agreement is practically an admission
a Germany's part that the negotia,
tions would go against her. Her plans
therefore, are certain to be thwarteG
as concerns Morocco.
