BRIEF SESSION
OF CITY COUNCIL
HELD LAST EVENING AND MAT.
TIERS DISPOSED OF.
vaas Resolution TO Have Saloonist
Brought Before License Court Re-
ferred-Routine Matters.

At the special meeting OF the city
council held last evening, Councilman
Vaas offered a resolution to have
Leonard jacquard. Second ward
saloonkeeper. brought before the
license court to face a charge OF haf.
boring women in his place OF bust.
ness. This resolution arises from the
fact that both of the negro hold-up
cases which were tried at the past
term OF criminal court originated in
the jacquard saloon. However, coun-
Gil did not accpet the resolution, but
referred it to the license court. which
will meet within two weeks and take
action on the matter.
But few other important matters
were up. for consideration at the
meeting last evening. on account of
the fact that none OF the committees
OF the body have met since the last
council meeting. The Appropriation
fund balances were read and ap-
proved. and the city treasurer was
ordered TO receive the amount due
the city from corporation taxes. City
officials have been advised by State
Auditor Darst that Wheeling's share
OF the taxes will be over ST.. 900.
In message to council. the board
of control recommended that the
Armstrong Sand Company be allowed
TO use a strip of land at :he foot of
Twenty-third street for the payment
TO the city OF the sum of SIS per
annum. Council granted the company
this privilege.
The petition OF the Wilmer estate
TO lay out property in North Wheel
ing into lots was referred TO the
committee on real estate.

Protection Democrats.

There is little difference between
protection Democrats and Republic
cans. If there is any difference 1t
is in name only. The Democrats who
stand for protection, incorporation
to the well defined principles enun-
'ciated in the platform of the Ma
tional Democracy as proclaimed at
Baltimore, can have little claim on
the party in whose name they are
masquerading.
1t is the protection Democrats
who are striving to defeat the Un-
derwood tariff by coalesclng with
the Republicans Of the Payne-Al-
|drich type.
In this talk of protection of sugar
and rice and lumber and even cot
ton, they would assume the attitude
of self-sacrificing patriots, but they
can not fool the people.
The Underwood bill is strictly a
party measure and it has the sup
port of the majority of the Demo-
Gratis in Congress who are not allied
with Republicans as protection
Democrats.
For instance, the sugar Democrats
are for protection, so are the rice
and the lumber Democrats, and all
the other kinds of Democrats who
are not in accord with the pledge of
Democracy to the people.
Is it not about time when the
Democratic press of Louisiana
should call to account their SEN
ators and their representatives in
Congress who are aligned i'll opposi-
tion to the Underwood bill under
the pretense of being protection
Democrats?
From their vote and from their
action these protection Democrats
are known.
1t may be said that neithe Wat
kins nor ASWell are of this class.
Congressman Elder of the Fifth Dis
trict is credited with having voted
against free wool which is probably
mistake. 1t is to be hoped he has
been unsupported, but what of the
others-they can not fool the great
majority of the Democrats of the
State by whom they have been hon.
ored with Office

The States Credit.

The Guardian Journal of Homer
says: IF those who affect to be so
jealous about the credit of the
State would use their influence to-
wards persuading the large number
of banks and other business institu-
tions in the State which have idle
capital under their control to invest
a part of it in the new 4 per cent
bonds, they might perform service
that would show their good faith
and prevent the impairment of the
States credit. The entire issue OF
$1t 100000 could be taken very cas-
lily by our own banks.
''The New Orleans banks alone
could take the entire issue, but
there are no doubt other banks
throughout the State that would
subscribe for liberal share of the
new securities, if the matter were
put squarely before them as ques-
ton of State pride. And if the
credit of the State is, as strong and
unimpaired as it is alleged, it would
seem that there would be no doubt
but what these bonds would be
readily taken by our own banking
institutions.
I'VE fear that there is too much
politics mixed up in the question,
and it begins to look like there were
some who are not so much con-
cerned about the credit of the State
as they are about seeing the present
administration fall
There has been and apparently
there is too much politics mixed up
in this question. 1t would seem that
some politicians, men of some in
fluence, would rejoice in discredit-
| ing Governor Hall politically and to
accomplish such end they would
not hesitate to let the State default,
but these will fail. AS has been we'll
said, the New Orleans banks alone
could take the entire issue. What
better investment is there offered to
money holders who would be safe
with an assured profit?
