THE ELECTION IN IBERIA.

In another column We pre-
sent to,lour readers tabu-
lated statement of the results
Of last Tuesdays election
in Iberia Parish. The recently
inaugurated grinding season was
no doubt responsible Tor the very
light vote polled; being barely
over fifty per cent of the reglstra-
ton. Inc outcome however, was
in no way disappointing and ful-
filled the predictions of those Ia
miliar with the political situation
OF the Parish. With Mr.. Wilson
as favorite for President and Mr..
Roosevelt as second choice, lead
ing Mr.. Taft by nearly 100 votes
and Debs closing with 81 TO ms
credit. The names of none but

lat for the other Offices. Con

turned to Congress, Judge Chas.
A. O'Neil elected as Associate JUS
tice from the 4th Sapreme Court

the rejection Of Nos. 4, 5, 6, z, 8,
10, IL, Is, 16, II, Is by the voters
Of the Parish. While we favored
all of these amendments to a
greater or less extent, and deplore
the loss Of some; we are well
pleased that by placing their APP
proval upon Amendment No. Ii;
the voters Of iberia have given
expression to the confidence re-
posed in the judgment Of Senator
w. j. Burke, who laborcd hard
and faithfully in the interest OF
this reform which appealed to
him as offering the greatest relief
to those whose welfare it is hts
duty to advance.

WILSON ELECTED PRESIDENT

cratic success the party appears
to have won the most substantial
control it ever had of the State
Legislature and the state delega-
ton in the National House OF
Representatives. OF the forty
three New York congressman
thirty-ohe Democrats and twelve
Republicans appear to be elected.
California, after wavering all
night and part of the day be-
tween Mr.. Roosevelt and Cover
nor Wilson, has cast her lot with
the New Jersey governor. 1t is
likely he will have plurality
close to $1,000.
Nothing to Fear.
All the nominees were Hooded
with kilograms Of congratulations
or regret. Governor Wilson was
literally swamped. Early in the
dav he made his first comment on
the result when he told the ice
man thai he was happy but fab
berpasted. Later he issued =
formal statement in which he
said:
"There is absolutely nothing
for the honest and enlightened
business men of the country to
fear. No man whose business Is
conducted without violation OF
rights 'of free competition and
without such private understand
ings and secret alliances as vlo
late the principle of our law need
fear neither interference nor en-
barrassment from the admnlstra-
ton.
This frank and sententious
statement created good feeling III
financial circles. The immediate
effect in Wall Street was a VIC.

power there have taken Cover

A SHORT WAR.

The re6rEal of the European
powers to intervene in the Balkan
Turkish war leaves the making
Of peace to the negotiations be-
tween the triumphant Slav states
and their ancient enemies. 1t is
evidently dictated by the secret
knowledge that the previously de-
cLared purpose. of preserving the
statu quo has now become imprac-
tlcable and that If the. powers
get into bargaining over the dis
position of the conquered terri
fne proceeding will be close
ly akin to smoking a cigar in a
powder magazine,
Therefore, Turkey must deal
with the allies. What terms they
will grant is a subject of specula
ton. The general belief is that
if she is prompt in opening ne
gotiations she may retain posses
sion of Constantinople while the
four allied governments divide
the rest Of her European posses.
sions. But if she delays long
enough for the allied troops to
concentrate their forces before
thar capital. and possibly make a
breach in its Notifications, she
may find herself entirely ousted
from Europe, 80

WHAT THE DEMOCRATS
WILL DO.

The Democratic Party, says the
Houston Chronicle is not going
to turn the country into
Utopia. There will still be
risk of crop failure and bank
ruptcy; friends will be false; men
and women will deceive and dis
appoint and injure us; sin will
continue the healthiest people
will occasionally get sick; there
will still be death and taxes;
land the grasshopper shall be a
burden and desire shall fail be-
cause man goeth to his long
home. "
But one thing the Democratic
party will do, one task it will per
form that will justify the conf
dence of the people in it. 1t will
end the partnership between the
government and the interests, IT
will stop the conspiracy to loot
heretofore existing between Uncle
Sam and Mr.. Money Magnate.
Had a multimillionaire taken a
million of money from the treas
ury there would have been a ire
mendous cry of "Stop thief! ~
Billions of money have been TAX
en- from the people by means Of
the tariff. which makes high prl-
ces and high cost of living by
shutting out foreign competition
and billions more by means of the
trusts, which club to death domes-
tic competition and charge for the
necessities and luxuries OF life
"all that the traffic will bear =
i. e.. all that the consumer can
possibly pay.
We have an antitrust law, but
the Republican president elected
by campaign contributions from
the trusts will not enforce it. He
dissolves a trust and it reorga-
nizes stronger than ever. The
supreme court with its "rule of
reason" makes the law mock
cry. But even before that decls-
ion the trusts were not prosecuted
all along the line, Standard Oil,
the American Tobacco company,
and few others, being singled
out for blank cartridge execu-
tons.
OF course, the tariff law should
be in the interest of all the people,
as it is the law which fixes prices
and fills or empties the market
basket. the wardrobe and the saw
ings bank.
Fair tariff taxation and trusts
shorn of their monopoly feature
and only permitted to exist when
they are efficient business institu-
tons, serving, instead of oppress-
ing the people, are essential if this
nation is to remain free. "The
government is not free because
it has granted special favors to
particular classes by means of the
tariff, says Woodrow Wilson in
his Message Of the American
people," He continues: "The
trusts want the protection Of the
government and would likely get
it if either the Republican or the
so-called progressive party had
now. !,
Surely this is a cause. Surely

POLICE JURY ADDRESSED
BY J. Y. SANDERS.

On invitation from the Police
Jury Hon. J.. Y. Sanders adj
dressed that body last Thursday
on Good Roads. Thoroughly
conversant with all phases OF that
most important subject, the ex-
Governor, in his usual masterful
manner, presented arguments IN
favor Of good roads SO forcibly
that all were impressed and the
Jury, to 4 man, agreed that Iberia
should have good and permanent
highways without further delay
wildly describing the present sys-
tenn Of road mending with its at
tendant evils to country and town
alike; and showing the benefits to
be derived from improved roads,
Mr.. Sanders advised bond issue
sufficiently large to permit the
immediate construction Of model
dirt roads throughout the Parish
and offered his assistance in car
rying through this project.
At the conclusion Of Mr.. San
ders speech, a committee Of three
members Of the Jury was appoint
ed to confer with the attorney
and to prepare q plan for sub.
mission to the taxpayers which
will permit the issuance Of bonds
for road construction in Iberis
Parish.
Although such q movement met
with 20 great opposition some
time ago as to cause the cancel
ling Of 4 call for an election to
authorize the Police Jury to is
sue bonds; the members feels COLI
6dent that the scheme can now be
carried to successful issue if prop
erly presented to the voters Of
Iberia in the near future.
