A REPUBLICAN, Primary.

Not to be entirely out of the
fashion, the Louisiana Republicans
had a little primary election of their
own on Wednesday,, the result of
which was decisive victory for the
party organization headed by Frank
B. Williams as chairman of the state
committee and Pearl Wight as ma
tional committeeman. The Cohen
Kuntz faction, generally known By
the sobriquet of BLACK and Tans, .
elected half a dozen members of the
state committee in New Orleans and
the first congressional district, and
probably two in the country parishes,
while the regular organization chose
all the remaining members, number
ing about hundred. and Hugh S.
Suthon received large majority
over C. J. Bell for. the nomination as
governor. Only five polls We're
opened in Ascension, and the returns
from four of them show IA votes
east, all being for the suthon
ticket.

ant and Fred. Grace are nominated
for attorney general and register OF
the state land office, respectively, 5y
large majorities. For commissioner
of agriculture, E. O. Bruner poiled
the highest vote, and in the event
of a second primary for governor
there will be a run-off between MT.
Bruner and William Polk, with B.
w, Marston eliminated as the third
man in the race.
The results Of the primary as to
Ascension parish are presented NY
the returns printed eleWhere in to
days Chief, and call for no partlcu-
lar comment With the exception
of the candidate for coroner, all the
candidates on what was commonly
called the Hanson parish ticket were
successful. The Ascension candidate
for state senator polled a handsome
plurality in his home parish, but re
ceived scanty support in St. james
and consequently ran behind both
| the candidates from that parish
/ neither of whom obtained a majority
Of the total vote. If a second pr
mary for governor is held there vii
be a run-off for senator between
/ Messrs. Doussan and Himel, and fol
representative between Messrs. Mar
chand and Gonzales, who received
the second and third highest votes
| in last Tuesdays contest. Mr.. Pi
| cards vote constituted a majority o1
the total poll, hence he is elected as
one of Ascension's representatives. L
| there be no second gubernatorla
primary, DR.. Doussan will be de
clared elected senator and Mr.. Mar
chand representative, as they have
pluralities over their nearest oppo
nents.

BEWARE OF THE TERRIBLE
REPUBLICANS!

One of the several funny things
noticeable in the late Democratic pri-
mary campaign was the effort OF the
stump speakers and newspaper or
gans of the rival Michel and Hail
factions to frighten the tlmld
Democracy of the state with a
Republican scarecrow. Each sides
spellbinders and press agents point
ed to the significant fact that.
prominent leaders of the other side
were tarred with the taint or tainted
with the tar of Republican affllla-
tions or @leanings, and that there was
a deep-laid conspiracy on the part OF
the Republicans to play the Trojan
horse trick on the unsophisticated
and timorous Democracy and thus
disintegrate, demoralize and teeto-
tally disrupt the Democratic party of
Louisiana.
The Hallites, for instance, recalled
| iIlGL JOuu I1IAD DdII A~kA, ~ SA1AANA
of the ward bosses, was an Office
holder under appointment of Re
! publican governor during the starless
night Of reconstruction; that Con-
gressman Albert Estopinal, erst-
while chairman of the Democratic
state central committee, was fore
most figure in Republican party
councils not many years ago; that
Congressman. Garland Dupre strayed
from the fold in 1886 and supported
the Pharr ticket; that two OF the
Alexandria Hunters who are now
spelling for Michel were not only
/ Republicans, but blach-and- tan ones
at that; that General Jim Cosgroye
once Whooped-it-up for Republican
I principles and candidates as uncom-
promisingly and vitriolically as he IS
now doing in Cosgroye's Weekly fol
the sanders-and- Michel variety OF
i Democracy-and SO forth and SO on.
The Michelites, on the other hand,
ayerred that John NJ. Parker, presl-
dent of the Good Government Lea
que, voted for Taft III 1908, that
j Don CafIery ran for governor in 1900
against the regular Democratic nom
inee, w. W. Heard; that Dr.. II.
/ Dickson Bruins Of New Orleans, a
prominent Lacquer, didn't give any
party affiliation when he registered
in 1900; that Jim Wilkinson, one OF
the leagues most effective speakers,
ran for congress On the Republican
ticket in 1892-and SO forth and SO
on
Meanwhile, the terrible Louisiana
Republicans, VINO had d hald time
| polling at the last general election
/ the Ineasly ten Per cent of the state
/ vote necessary to give them q party
standing under the law, are antlcl-
| pating a sLilI harder time in the
same effort at the next general cleo
! ton, and are only wishing they We're

the opposition as was sought to
make them out.

w. G. Randolph. sheriff of East
Baton Rouge aud a candidate for
the Democratic nomination for re
election, died at his home in the
city of Baton Rouge on the 18th in
stant, after AN illness of only five
days. He was perhaps the most
popular man in the parish and his
friends were confident of his sue
cess in the primary of the 23rd, but
his sudden death left his opponent,
t. A. Womack, the sole candidate
in the field, hence the Democratic
parish committee met and declared
Mr.. Womack the party nominee.

SAYBRook TOLL BRIDGE
 TO BE MADE FREE
Automobilists Are Getting Tired of
 Paying the Passage Money.

Less than year ago the Saybrook- Lyme highway toll bridge was opened to traffic, but already there is belief in many quarters that 1t will be made free bridge within another year, Thusands of automobiles from all over the country have paid toll to cross the bridge and most of the owners have registered a fervent kick every time they passed their money over.
 It is freely predicted that the next general assembly will be so besieged by automobilisfs who will favor the abolishment of tolls that the legisla- ture will be forced to recognize the demand. It Is said that influence along this line is even now well under way and that it will show up strongly by the first of the new years. The bridge has exacted thousands of dollars in tolls since its opening on August "A, 1911, and practically all of this money has been paid by automobilists. The amount collected daily from foot pas sengers and horse drawn vehicles is extremely small. aggregating at times barely $2.
 Owners of automobiles in Connecti- cut, who of course comprise the great bulk of those paying toll on the bridge, argue that they pay considera- ble sums yearly for the improvement and maintenance of state highways and therefore they should not be obliged to pay further for crossing a bridge which was built and paid for by the state and is, in their opinion, a part of such highways.
 Speaking of improved roads-the half-mile or more in approaches on each side of the bridge in the towns of Old Saybrook and Old Lyme are as fine stretches of highway as can be found anywhere in the state.

Preparations for the installation of the two new reciprocating engines for the Thamesville power station of the Connecticut company are being pushed rapidly towards completion. The south wall of the building has been removed while the work is going on, and when rebuilt the building will be extended four feet on this side to accommodate the new engines and their accessories. The engines are of 1000 kilowatt ca pacity and of about 800 horse power each. They. were taken from plant at Port Chester, N. Y. and although thay have not arrived as yet, they are expected here shortly. These are to take the place of the old 800 horse power engine, and will consequently give a big surplus of power, They were considered a necessity to preclude the possibility of a serious lack Of power, due to breakdown, such as was recently experienced in ths plant as the result of a heavy discharge of lightning.
 The work of putting in the founda- tions has been going on since July l, and Is being done by the Fred T, Ley company of Sprin gfleld, a company which speciaidzes in concrete work. This firm did considerable work in this vicinity for the Connecticut company SIX or seven years ago, One hundred and sixty three piles have been driven for the foundation, and the concrete WoIt is now being done, The concrete mixer and a force of twenty five men are pushing the work along at fast clip, When completed there Wlu be 500 cubic yards Of concrete work, In cxt4neing the side of the building 5000 brick will be used. The foundation will be ready for the engines some time next week. but it will be some time
