Bankers Oppose Guaranty Law.

The most important action mark
ing the proceedings Of the first day S
session of the annual convention OIL
the Louisiana Bankers Association,
which was held at Shreveport last
week, was the adoption, without dis
cussion or division, Of resolution
setting the associations seal OF dis
approval on the proposition for a
bank guaranty deposit law In Louis
lana.
The matter came before the con-
vention when J.W. Bolton, of Alexan-
dria, announced that he had the
approval of the executive council for
the presentation of a resolution de-
claring the body's opposition to the
proposed law. It had previously been
referred to during discussion OF
the report of the legislative com
mittee, when the question OF chang
ing the reserve banking law OF the
state was under consideration. And
it was clear at that time that the
bank guaranty, plan had no friends In
the convention.
Mr.. Bottoms resolution was unanl-
mously adopted. The action of the
association means that vigorous
fight will be made at the coming SEES
sion of the legislature against the
proposed act of Representative
Schwfng, of Iberville, to put the
Oklahoma guaranty plan in opera
ton in Louisiana.

Position of Lock Advocates Correctly
Stated.

Quite a number of our citizens
went to Thibodaux to appear at a
special meeting of the police jury to
urge that body to send strong reso-
lutjons to the commerce committee
of congress protesting against the
removal of the dam at Donaldson
vile before the building of the locks.
The resolutions were wired to Con-
gresham Broussard, who presented
them to the committee. From pres
emit prospects, it is likely congress
will grant an extension of time for
the removal Of the dam to permit
of "a report to be made on the build
Ing of the locks by government en-
gineers.
After having visited Donaldsonville,
and Ascension and Assumption par
ishes, and conversing with many of
their leading citizens, we are glad
to report there is absolutely no SEN
timent for the removal of the dam
without the construction of locks

Republican Gain in New Jersey.

An election was held in the sew
enth district of New Jersey on
April to fill vacancy in the ma
tional house Of representatives caused
by the death Of the late Robert L..
Bremner, Democrat. Practically COM
plete returns show the following vote:
Dow H. Drukker, Republican, 10,649;
James J. O'Byrne, Democrat, SLAB;
Demarest, Socialist, 5118; White
head, Progressive, 600. There is
much rejoicing among Republicans
generally because the successful can
didate made his campaign on the tar
if issue mainly. attacking the policy
of the Democratic party as harmful
to both labor and capital, and be-
cause the defeated Democratic can
didate was personally Endorsed by
President Wilson and appealed to
the voters to indorse the national
administration by giving him their
support. The district is normally
Republican, however, and Mr.. Brem-
ner's election was due to his person
al popularity and the fact that a
New Jersey man headed the national
Democratic ticket.

Hjalmar Nilsson. secretary for the
American committee for promoting
an up-to-date direct passenger and
mail steamship line between Gothen-
burg, Sweden's western port, and New
York or Boston, has been notified from
Stockholm that the Swedish-Ameri-
can Transatlantic Steamship company
had been incorporated at Gothenburg,
with a minimum capital Of 10,000,000
crowns, equal to $2,700,00o. About
$3.50, 1000 has been subscribed In the
United States. Henry Skantze, who
spent a few months in this country
last summer, has written Mr.. Nilsson
that the present secretary of the
Swedish navy, Daniel Brostrom, will
head the new line. If Sweden can
avoid being involved in the war Mr..
Nilsson believes the new line will be
started shortly.

Owing to the fact that DR.. Sven
Hedin has shown such pronounced
sympathy for the Germans tho French
Geographical Society has decided to
eliminate him as an honorary mem
ber Of that organization and will also
persuade the Legion of Honor to
eliminate him from the distinction of
further having his name connected
with that distinguished organization
DR.. Hedin some time ago visited Ger
many and was the guest of the Ger
man emperor. On returning to Swe-
den he was so pronounced In his SYM
pathy for the Germans that it arous-
ed marked comment in many parts Of
the country. DR.. Hedin is the leader
of the war party in Sweden, but his
propaganda has received but little
sympathy.

tiers hitherto has been unimpeded and
no warning of the laying of mines
has been given. Captains of Swedish
steamers reaching Stockholm declare
they saw German Warships near the
Finnish coast, consequently the strew-
ing of mines in these waters is credit
ed to the Germans. Traffic in Finnish
waters is to be discontinued until
they have been swept Of mines.

The people of Sweden are greatly
interested in the news that recently
came from Helsingfors to the effect
that Russia is withdrawing her troops
from that country and adding them
to the main Russian armies which are
fighting Germany and Austria. This
action indicates that Russia no longer
regards Sweden as an enemy and has
