SATURDAY, DECEMBER IL 1914.
The Celebration of January 8, 1915.

THE Louisiana Historical Society, under
whose auspices the work is being carried on, is
arranging for a splendid celebration in New
Orleans on January 8, 9 and 10 of the One Hun
dred Years of Peace between English speaking
nations which was begun by the success of
Gen. jackson in the famous battle on the field
of Chalmette January s, 1915.
A considerable number of delegates from
foreign countries and the various states have
answered the invitations of the governor Of
this state to join with US in this celebration and
under the guidance of President Gaspar Cusachs
of the Louisiana Historical Society and Hon. T.
P. Thompson, chairman of the General Com
mittee, extensive arrangements are now max
ing to celebrate in New Orleans. The program
will cover the unwilling Of a tablet on the Jack
son monument on the Chalmette battlefield. the
opening of a Battle Abbey, the TIE Deum at the
Ursuline Convent, which has occurred regularly
every 9Th. of January since 1915, a big ban
quet, a Military Reception at the Athenaeum
with dances of the period a grand parade and
will close with a special celebration at Jackson
Square, reproducing the event in 1916 when
General Jackson was crowned with laurels by
the ladies of New Orleans and his splendid VIC
tory at Chalmette celebrated by a grand ponti-
fetal mass in the great cathedral facing the
square. Archbishop Blenk has consented to
impersonate Able DeBourge who oficiated in
1915. The details of this feature of the cele-
bration are all being carefully worked up and
will make as nearly as possible a replica of that
great celebration Of January 1916. It is also
contemplated to have a big band concert and
fireworks at Jackson Square during one of the
nights of the celebration.
In this celebration the whole English speak
in g world is really interested. While peace was
declared by the treaty of Client several days
before the great battle Of Chalmette, yet no

Pay Your Poll Tax.

THE electors of the Parish of Plaquemines
should now consider the fact that only a few
days remain during which they can pay their
poll taxes for 1914 and thus become qualified
electors for the election of 1915 and 1916, which
cover the coming gubernatorial and presidential
elections.
It has been singular to notice in New Orleans
that some of the most conspicuous citizens of
that great city overlook the necessity for paying
this tax promptly and when held up at the polls
for non payment they stand shocked at their
own carelessness. The Parish of Plaquemines
has always been conspicuous in the political life
of this state and to maintain that %conspicuity
and to secure the incidental influence brought
to it by the ability and energy of its people, the
parish should cast a full vote at every election
and now but a few days remain to cover the
poll taxes that will qualify the electors for the
coming year and the following one. A word to
the wise ought to,be sufficient.

The War In Europe.

We are constantly asked what we think Of
the way in Europe; when will it be over; what
will be the results? No man living can answer
these questions. There are more factors in
volved in the present great European war than
have ever been involved in any previous war of
which we have any knowledge. The combats
of the past fall into insignifcance when COM
pared with the millions of troops of our great
civilized nations now in the field, engaged ap-
p%arently in a life and death struggle, with
thousands Or hundreds Of thousands of them
killed or disabled and dying from wounds and
disease.
The situation to every thinking person is
one of the most deplorable of which our human
ity can conceive and yet we recognize as laud-
able the ambition in man that leads him to seek
higher individual levels, to seek the precedence
over other people and their final control. It is
the same with nations as with men and the
early history Of Europe gives the record Of the
invading armies from Asia which destroyed the
ancient indigenous civilizations and brought
Lower coast gazette., 1914-12-12

news from Europe in those days could reach
America for weeks and the battle and the
American success in it confirmed the wisdom Of
the treaty of peace and the century that has
followed between these English speaking peo-
pies, as displayed by the rapid development of
the earth insofar as it was under the control of
these people, a development rapid in industrial
results as we'll as in the general betterment Of
mankind.
We shall hope that the Parish of Plaque
mines will overflow into New Orleans in these
days of January 8, 8 and 10, 1916 and do its full
part in this great celebration.

derived ours Of the modern

As it is we can only look on in
sorrow at the great conflict and
await it's final results which may
not be developed for another
year or may occur as the results
of some great victory at an
time.
Shipments of oranges and 9TH
er California fruit will be delayed
from two weeks to a month long
er than has been the case in the
past by a ruling just made in re-
gard to the amount of sweetness

To prevent the interstate ship-

air to an extent that will culcnGj
its inferiority, the Department. CT
Agriculture has issued an ar
nouncement defining lie m:n.-

must attain on the tree, if later
sweating is not to he held to
conceal inferiority.
In the past much immature
fruit coloreG by sVaatinG has
been shipped. The law prohibits
the colcring Of any tood product
SO as to conceal lnferiority, and
shipments Of fruit so colored
have always been prohibited. The
announcement is as follows:
The Bureau Of Chemistry has
received requests to define the
terms immature and maturity as
used in food inspection decision
1873. relating to the coloring Of
green citrous fruits.
"As q result Of the investiga-
ton carried out during the sea-
son Of 1913 and 1914, the Bureau
of Chemistry considers Califor-
MIA oranges to be immature if
the juice does not contain soluble
solids equal to, or in excess of
eight parts to every part of acid
contained in the juice, the acid
ity Of the juice to be calculated
as citric acid without water or
crystallization. Owing to the
fact that opportunity has been
given to study the composition Of
California oranges during one
season only, the ratio set at this
time is lower than that which is
believed to be the minimum for
properly matured fruit. It may
therefore, be expected that the
requirements will be made more
strict after data from several
crops are available.
