The citizens meeting and smoker,
called for Wednesday evening at city
hall, was a great surprise in point OF
numbers and indicated an awakened
interest in things progressive for the
betterment of the city; about fifty per-
sons were present and free discus
sion of various topics was had. Pres
ident Albers Of the Improvement AS.
ISOLATION was chairman, and DR.. j. Il.
Johnston was secretary The pri-
mary object OF the meeting was to
consider the part Warsaw would take
in the coming dam celebration and
also to get an expression as to having
a home coming celebration near about
the same time. However it had been
suggested that the latter be postponed
until 1914, as the first fort against
the Indians was built here 100 years
sprevious, and thus the centenary
could be combined with the home
looming.
1 1t was also thought the latter would
Interfere with the proper interest and
participation in the dam celebration
Mr. Jno. M. Hungate was called on for
q report OF any preparations agreed
! upon at the recent governors recep-
ton at Keokuk. He said two days
were spoken of, one as national day
and one governors day, with a bril-
liant water pageant on the lake s.nd
river the night between, and that the
owners of all river craft be invited to
| bring their boats and anchor near the
dam, the same to be used as hotels
during the celebration and thus re-
llieve the congestion in the cities. He
/ also said the legislatures of the sew
eral states interested, and the national
government would be called on for ap-
preparations, and the towns also would
be asked to do their part, but no
action had yet been taken. He also
spoke Of the banquet Of the CONNER
cial club of Hamilton at Hotel Gran
lite, on Monday night, which he and
DR.. Johnston attended as invited
guests, the prevailing theme being
closer fraternal relations between
Warsaw and Hamilton to boost and
pull for cur Industrial section and this
side of the river, with no antagonism
for the Iowa side; simply because the
interests of the twin cities on this
side of the river should be mutual. A
number Of stirring speeches were
made at that banquet, and a hearty
/ welcome given Warsaw's representa-
tlves. Mr.. Hungate further reported
that as an aftermath of that meeting
lit was decided to form a Hancock
County Boosters club, and a few with
MIR. Hungate agreed to meet next day
at Hamilton and form a temporary
organization, inviting other towns to
be present. This was done, Nauvoc
and Carthage being also represented
and motion was made that the War

"On Whose Authority 2"

There was published in the Caucas-
ian of May an editorial, commenting
on clipping from the New Orleans
States of May /, in which it was an
nounced that Mr.. Atkins of the traffic
department of the Chamber of Com
merce of Shreveport, had also appeared
before the committee (of cotton men)
and had lodged complaint to certain
features of the Underwood bill, direct
ly affecting the cotton industry.
In this issue Mr.. Atkins makes plain
his position, which is the reverse of
the attitude in which the States re-
port would place him.
1t would seem that this meeting of
cotton men had for its purpose the
generating Of political thunder, for
operation against the Underwood bill,
especially the sugar clause, and con-
nected Mr.. Atkins as a protestant
against the Democratic tariff bill
from the Shreveport Chamber of Com
merce for effect.
The so-called cotton men aggrega-
tion, with the sugar interests in the
background, should realize that North
Louisiana is strictly in favor of Tariff
Reform downward, and subscribes un-
qualifiedly to the Underwood bill. 1t
may be said that if a vote Of the Dem
ocrats Of the State could be held on
the Underwood bill, it would receive
favorable approval by an overwhelming
majority of at least fifty to one.
In the days Of Louisiana's shame,
during the era Of reconstruction, it was
North Louisiana which liberated the
State from the clutches Of the political
spoilsmen. North Louisiana has al
ways been Democratic and for Tariff
Reform downward. 4~-.,
The Caucasian. (Shreveport, La.) 1900-192?, 1913-05-11

trict Is known AZ the Sugar District,
out even in that District the majority
Of the voters are Tariff Reform Demo
Gratis.
We may query: What about Estopi-
nal of the Third District, in which is
embraced the lower half of New Or
leans, including the parishes below,
fronting on the Mississippi Riverf
The query is suggested in the absence
Of his name being on the reported roll
call.
Fortunately these Congressman have
not impaired the vitality Of the Dem
ocracy of which they have been loud
and prolonged opponents, but they
could not save sugar, the sugar through
which there has been created in Lou
isiana an oligarehy of sugar cane grow
ers and grinders who IN a comparative
sense are in hopeless political mi
nority in Louisiana. 8.
How can these Congressman recon
ellie their action with their pledges to
their party, which Is not Republican,
but Democratic? 1t would seem that
for sugar they hunger, for sugar they
would lay aside cherished principles,
and for sugar they would sacrifice the
supremacy of Democracy, which offers
the only practicable relief from the
oppressive system of protection as de-
vised and enforced by the Republicans.
