PROGRESSIVE LEGISLA-
TION IN LOUISIANA

BATON ROUGE, La, July 12.-The
Louisiana Legislature has adjourned
after the most exciting session in its
history since the lottery was abol-
ished.
Gov. l.. E. Hall, who was elected in
April, was pledged to a lengthy re-
form program, but the lawmakers
were not in entire accord with his
views.
The legislative session, however, re-
suited in the adoption of the recall for
all state and parish officers except
Judicial; the extension of the commits
son form of government to all towns
of over 1000 population, and the aboli-
ton of number of unnecessary of
lfices. The income tax amendment was
ratified, after its endorsement had
been delayed for two years by the
opposition of the sugar planters. Ar
extra session of the legislature tc
complete the reform program is con.
sidered probable.

believed to be right and was giving
the country a very good administra-

declared for Roosevelt also indorsed
the Taft administration. Therefore
it is not a dffcult task to turn to
Taft as the regularly nominated can
ddate of the party, after Roosevelt
has deserted and set about starting d
party of his own. Some Of the Re
pubicans who constituted the Roose-
welt following while he was in the
party will go with him into the third
party venture, but the large majority
of them will prefer to remain Re
publicans.
Forsaking party with which one
has long been identified and of whose
record he has ever been proud is
close akin to forsaking ones family

publican will not do, even to promote
the ambitions of leader who has

ROLLO STATUE UNVEILED AT

FARGO, N. Oak, July 12.-In the
presence of great gathering repre-,

the entire northwest there was un-
veiled here today magnificent stat
ue of Rollo, the first duke of Nor
mandy.
The statue was presented by the
city of Rouen, France, to the Nor
mans of North America, through the
city of Fargo, and is memorial and
token of regard from one race Of men
to another through whose veins flow
the same blood.
The unveiling came as the first
event of an attractive program pre-
pared for the annual convention of the
Sons of Norway and the biennial
saengerfest of the Norwegian Sing
ers' association of America.
The joint gathering will be in ses-
sion here for several days.
The statue unveiled today is a re-
plica of the Rolla statue in the city
of Rouen. 1t pictures the great Vik-
ing as he stands, one hand on the hilt
of his sword, the other pointing
downward demanding allegiance and
obediance from his followers The stat
ue is of bronze and stands on a mas
sive granite pedestal.

WATERPROOFING OF
MORTAR AND CEMENT

There are some cases of where the
waterproofing of concrete is very de
sirable. The granary may be of i'm
portance where the base is in direct
contact with the ground. The cellar
should be dry. The universal use of
concrete has made it possible to con-
struct feeding and watering troughs
for the barnyard. Cisterns may be
required on the farm, not only to
keep the water in, but also to keep
the water out.
There are several methods used in
making concrete and cement mortar
more impervious to water by the
addition of foreign ingredients.
To increase the water tightness of
concrete, especially to lean mixtures.
clay may be added. The clay must
be free from all vegetable matter
and when added must be in a finely
powdered state. The amount to be
added must vary with the mixture;
for ordinary farm work add about two
to five per cent of the weight of
sand used and in the mixture.
Mix dry with the cement.
The addition of soap and alum to
cement mortar has been found to di-
minish its permeability, and the fol-
lowing has been found to give good
results: Take one part of cement and
two and one-half parts of clean.
sharp sand, and to every cubic foot
of sand add three-fourths pound of
powdered alum. This should all be
mixed dry. Now add water in which
four pounds of ordinary laundry soap
to the gallon, and thoroughly mix. If
you find it difficult to dissolve the
soap, use hot water. The strength
of the mortar will of course be some
what inferior to that of the pure mix
ture.
Alum and lye applied to the exter-
ior surface with calcimining brush
has been found effective, Use one
pound of lye and three pounds of alum
dissolved in two gallons of water.
A very effective method to prevent
moisture penetrating through walls
that extend beneath the surface of
the ground is the application of two
coats of coal tar to the exterior sur
face of the wall, the coating to ex-
tend well above the surface of the
ground.

SENATORIAL FIGHT IN OKLA.

OKLAHOMA CITY, July 12.-The
friends and supporters of United
Safes Senator Robert Owner, in his
fight for the denomination against
former Governor Charles N. Hask-
ell, are of the opinion that the sena-
tors chances of success have been
materially strengthened by the nomi-
nation of Woodrow Wilson for presi-
dent.
The senatorial battle will end lit
tie more than three weeks hence, when
a general primary of all parties will
be held for the Endorsement of candi-
dates for United States senator, mem
bers of the judiciary, representatives
of congress and members of the leg

Early in the Democratic presidential
contest Ex-Governor Haskell. who is n
former Ohio man, announced himself
in favor of Governor Harmon of the
Buckeye state for the presidential
nomination and endeavored, though
without success, to swing Oklahoma
into line for the Harmon boom. SEN
ator Owen, on the other hand, made
1t known as early as last summer
that he was flatly opposed to the
nomination of Governor Harmon. He
stated his willingness to support Mr..
Wilson or Clark, but absolutely refus-
ed to have anything to do with the
boom for the Buckeye chief executive.

has naturally met with favor by the

The latest scheme of the Roosevelt
and advantageous, with the Demo-
Gratis. In the New England states and
perhaps some other states where Mr..
Roosevelt is not very strong and the
Democrats have no chance to win 1T
is the plan to fuse and arrange to
give Democrats what ever they want
on the state ticket in return Tor the
Democratic support ON the Roosevelt
national ticket, This at first thought,
would seem TO be a very good scheme,
but on second thought, there appears
many problems that may BATTLE even a
long headed politician like Roosevelt.
In the first place will the Demo-
cratic party of the nation stand for
n fusion with the Roosevelt party at
the expense of the Democratic candi-
date. The national Democratic party
will throw its strength against such
a movement. In the second place the
idea of fusion is injurious to any
perHidhelt cause anu "ouiu incNiIupiy
work against fusionists. In the third
place, it is quite probable that those
of the Democrats who have support
ed Roosevelt in previous campaigns,
are strong supporters of Wilson and
would not under any circumstances
desert him at this time. The chances
are that the scheme will result in a
failure.

now confessed to have been fake con-
tests as to nearly 200 delegates in
