Points to Accomplishments.

In response to inquiries as to what the
Auti-SaIoon League has accomplished
since it was organized, in 1898, Albert
j.. Shoemaker, attorney for the league,
has prepared statement. The state
ment contains information relative to the
work of the excise board, and points out
the more important provisions of the
Works law, under which the number of
barroom licenses was reduced to 300.
THE league has and is endeavoring
to secure the best possible results from
the law says Mr.. Shoemaker in this
statement. 1T has strenuously worked
10 the end that the law be strictly COM
Piled with.
League Active Before Board.
During consideration of applications
for renewals Of licenses for the year be-
ginning November /, it opposed in every
instance the granting of licenses at pro-
hibited places Agents of the league
made personal inspections of all liquor
establishments for which renewal appli-
cations were made, and made accurate
measurements where the question of dis
tance arose
The results OF such inspections and
meaSurments were furnished to the ex-
cise board at the hearings upon the ap-
plicationS. All available objections were
urged before the board in every case.
Boards Act Unsatisfactory.

passing upon the 400 applications for
aarroom licenses and the ia applica-

ever, taken as a whole. distinctively
disappointing to the league and other
friends of the law. 1t is estimated that
at least 100 licenses were granted con-

Lives Despite Adverse Conditions.

THE fact that our people are con-
tinuing to plant sugar cane and rice
is owing to the small advance in price
of these products, due to the effects of
the European war. These industries
are living today, not because of any
thing this administration has done for
US, but in spite of all it has done
against us. Our people are protection
lists in principle, and feel that they can
no longer affiliate with party that for
the second time has lost no opportunity
to strike a blow at the industries of
the south.
I'VE forgave the democratic party
when, during the Cleveland admin
istration, our industries were threat
ened, and we had hoped for better
and fairer treatment at the hands of
this administration, which was under
solemn platform pledge not to injure
or destroy US; but when this admin
istration, regardless of promises and
platform pledges, sought by adverse
Legislation the destruction of an in
dustry in which millions are invested,
and upon which hundreds of thousands
cluded that the time had come to leave
the party that had deserted and
abandoned them, and join a party that
held out some hope for the future"
People in Revolt.
After saying he was delegate to
the Baltimore convention and support
ed Wilson, Judge Martin says:
When Mr.. Wilson received the nomi-
nation, and agreed to run upon the
platform that pledged the party not to
injure or destroy any legitimate in
dustry, 1 felt that our industries were
safe and that the party would live up
to it's pledges. But when this admin
istration undertook to disregard its
platform, which President Wilson said
was not molasses to catch flies and
sought to legislate our industries out
of existence, the people of my district,
were lifelong democrats, felt that this
was the last straw. and in the face
of the opposition of national, state and
parochial administra tions, and in the
face of a hostile press. elected pro-
gressive protectionist by safe and
large majority. No one who does not
live in Louisiana can realize the con-
ditions that were brought about in my
state by the ruinous effects of the
Underwood bill. Many of our sugar
mills have been dismantled and the
vast army of unemployed is upon the
increase.
Our skilled labor is seeking other
fields of employment; our people in
desperation have been reaching out
and searching for some industry to
ocratic party has sought to destroy
We are now hoping that the effects of
the European war will enable them to
survive the ruinOuS effects of the

his quick, decisive manner OF speech
is indicative of the nature of the man
Out OF a fund OF experiences un
equalled by any other man in the base
ball profession, McGraw has chosen
several extremely funny incidents
which he relates with the effective
ness of the trained theatrical star
One of his stories concerns a budding
hero OF the diamond who, when told
to go into right field, asked McGraw
which one it was. explaining that he
was a stranger in New York.
The fact that McGraw is now on

These are the words Of Holy Writ
that ever resound In the Christians
ear, and, thus II is that such noble
work has been done by the members
of this society. not only for the poor
OF our own church and town, but for
the orphans and other dependent ones
In our State institutions as well.
Money, yes, thousands OF dollars,
have been thus contributed by the La
dies Aid Society of this church during
the past years. but money, while al
ways essential. Is the very least that
has been given. Boxes Of warm cloth
ing, shoes, stockings and fannels have
been sent to the little orphans when
cold winter was upon them. Boxes of
clean summer wear were sent, in sea-
son, and when the joyous Christmas
tide o'erspread the world and our
hearts were glad with merry making.
boxes filed with Christmas presents,
! and goodies, were wrapped In good
cheer and tied with the glowing scar
let of heartfelt love, and sent into the
homeless home for the motherless and
fatherless children there, leaving the
noble hearted donors In this society
not the less provided for by their CIV
ing but overfowing with an abund-
ance of good things and happiness
of heart and mind that "passeth all

And thus 1t is that the outlook for
the Ladies' Aid Society of this church

promising, for they will continue their
noble work along lines OF usefulness
| already tried and proven, viz, beneyo-
lence, missions, education. Their vigil
lance committee will see to 1t that
| the poor, the sick, the bereaved and
sorrowful are not neglected Their
work for missions will continue with
ever increasing interest, for they hope
this year not only to provide the an

China as heretofore, and continue to
| contribute with their usual generosity
to State and Associational missions,
but also to use their influence in estab-
