Hon. III Ghauviin Of Ascension
lis one Of the two candi dates for the
district judgeship, his competitor a
very excellent and capable gentle
man against whom there is not a
word to say in personal criticism or
derogatio n--being from the same par
ish that furnishes the district at
torney, who has been renominated
without opposition. Mr.. Chauvin has
practiced law in this community for
a number Of years, besides which he
has edited local newspapers and
served a four-year term as represents
alive in the general assembly. The
knowledge and experience gained in
these positions have naturally quail
fled him for efficient and satisfactory
service in the important position Of
district judge. and his fitness is
augmented by the possession Of a
conservative and judicial mind and
a measure of personal poise and
dignity always to be desired in an
occupant Of the judicial bench.
The election of Mr.. Chauvin as
judge will rebound to the credit Of
the people of all the three parishes
forming the twenty district
st. James, Assumption and Ascen-
sion-and his friends are confident
that the popular appreciation Of this
fact already assures him a substantial
majority in the primary election to
be held Tuesday, Sept. 8.

EXTRA SESSION OF THE GENARAL
1 ASSEMBLY ENDED.

The general assembly of Louisiana
concluded the work of it's extra ses-
sion last Saturday, having consumed
only twelve of the fifteen days
which Governor Hall specified as
the limit of time for consideration
of the tax reforms proposed by the
tax commission for submission to the
people in the shape Of constitutional
amendments
The main bill embodying the pro
posed change in the states methods
and system Of taxation was passed
| by the house of representatives on
| Thursday of last week by a vote of
30 to IA, and the seven exemption
amendments went through by votes
ranging from 80 to "a yeas against
] to 10 nays.
The senate reached a final vote
on the main bill Saturday forenoon,
the tally standing SO yeas to 8 nays,
Senator'S Jones, Louque and RiVarde
being the only members of the body
who stood out against the measure
to the last. There We're two absen-
lees, Senators Amacller and Barham.
Barely a half hour was occupied in
securing the signatures of the speak
er, lieutenant governor and governor
to the eight bills, and at 1870 p. N.
the extra session was a thing of the
past.
The tax commission has been con-
tinued in existence without compen-
sation to assist in a campaign ct
education to familiarize the people
with the merits of the proposed re-
form.
Governor Hall, Lieutenant Governor
Barrel, Speaker Thomas and promi-
nent members of both houses Of the
general assembly were unstinted IN
their praise and Endorsement of the
new legislation. The governor said:
Il regard the tax plan adopted as
the greatest progressive step ever
taken in Louisiana in: this direction,
and I am confident that it will meet
with the favor OF the people, and
that in time Louisiana will be looked
upon as having the best system OF
taxation and assessment enjoyed by
any state IN the Union. :
And, if anybody should ask you,
that's just what The Chief thinks
also,
