THE POLITICAL EMANCIPATION
OLE NEW Or. LEANS.

The triumph of Judge l.. i. Hall a.
the representative and the leader u.
the Good Government League "
Louisiana, will be incomplete If th'
political ringstcrs in New Orleans,
are not dislodged from their posi-
tions and suffer complete annihIla-
ton.
Ever since the overwhelming oi
the Louisiana State Lottery ana
when Senator Murphy ]. Foster a
Governor rehabilitated through his
influence the ring rule machine, by
recognizing and faVoring the Ward
Bosses with lucrative positions, tn"
State of Louisiana has been been a.
a vassal from which tribute has been
exacted in the multiplicity of Offices
and political patronage.
Until the upheayal of January %,
when a long-suifering people rosr
in their might and swatted their Op-
pressors. the ring rule machine has
felt so securely entrenched that they
bid their defiance in the spirit OF
their extreme insolence.
While the principles Of the Good
Government League have triumph"d
in the State, il should not be pre-
stunned that the ringsters will yield
their lucrative positions without q
desperate struggle. 1t is all issue OF
life and death with them and they
will resort TO every device or scheme
to retain their control in New Or
leans through which they have been
enabled To dominate the State.
The political emancipation Of New
Orleans is therefore an issue Of the
greatest concern TO all the citizens
Of the State who have tired of Boss
ism. In such a contest each indi-
yidual IN the State can contribute his
mite and influence towards the ac-
cemplishment Of this most desirable
and desired end
II the ringsters are not driven
from power in New Orleans, their
every effort will be directed to the
diserediting Of Halls administration,
-Snd besides the -ringstefs, with their
domination Of New Orleans, will be,
as now, formidable center upon
which to rally their heelers ana
their associates throughout the
State.
Now that Judge Hall and the prin-
ciples Of the Good Government
League have prevailed by all over
whelming majority, il is only fair
and reasonable to conclude that the
hundreds and thousands of citizens
of New Orleans. many being engaged
in business, will avail themselves Of
the opportunity offered to assert
themselves as freemen, and will re-
bel against the system to which they
have been compelled to pay tribute
enforced by Bossism.
Once aroused, the people will not
be deferred nor checked in driving
from power the individuals who
have held Offices as a means of po-
litieal graft; individuals who have
been a discredit to New Orleans and
the State of Louisiana.

BIG WHlTeFlsH CAUGHT.
One Weighing Twenty Pounds is
Landed at M9ruuette.

What is. believed 20 be the largest

Gsh house Of the Anderson Fish COM
pany yesterday afternoon, says the
Mining Journal. 1t weighed twenty
and quarter pounds when dressed. IL
was three feet long, ten inches across
and the third dimension was four anu
half inches.
The fish was entangled in the hets
OF Pictured Rocks when the tug ar
rived Monday, and the fish was cap
turcd only after hard fight 1t was
found necessary to gaff ii in order to
get it aboard the tug. The fish has
small head and small tail. but not
so its body II will be sent to the Chi
cago market. where it will command n
fancy price. Imagine this whale be-
ing served as planked whitofish.
The fish is the biggest that AuSu5t
Anderson has ever seen. Whitcfish
weighing fifteen and a half ana four
teen and half pounds are sometimes
caught, but seldom are twenty pound
specimens found in Lake superior now.
Mr. Anderson has heard of larger FISH
being caught. but not in recent years

ROMAN CITY IN ENGLAND.

The work of excavation Of the Ro-
man city Of Uriconium. which lies bur
led or a site OF some 10 acres six
miles south of Shrewsbury. under the
shadow of Wreckin, noted hill In
Shropshire. is about 10 begin. 1t Will
be very important, and will extend
over several summers. Little is
known of the origin and early history
OF the place The name is evidently
akin to W'reckin. and its site was prob
ably chosen because OF the existence
of ford on the Severn. The ex-
cavations, IL is hoped. will determine
the date OF the first Roman occupa-
ton. Evidence already available clear
ly puts it within The First century 4.
ID. II also confirms the tradition that
the city was stormed and burned and
it's inhabitants massacred. Coins found
on the site clearly bring the history OF
the occupation down to the end of the
Fourth century only. The town was
surrounded hy a wall and ditch.
