PROGRESSIVE CONVENTION
TO-DAY.

AS we go to press the Pro-
gressive Nominating Convention
for the selection of a candidate
fer Congress who it is proposed
to pit against Hon. Henri Guey-
dan of Vermilion. the Democra-
tic nominee is taking place in
the Court House. Delegates by
the hundreds are all working for
their favorite, but indications
point to the selection of Hon. Ed
win S. Broussard who has worked
up a strength through the Dis
trict that from appearances cal
not be broken. For some weeks
the general impression were that
feterman or Martin had a chance
iii the Convention, but now indi.
cations point to a landslide for
Mr.. Broushrd. It matters not
whom the Progressives nominate,
it will require an active cam
palgn to elect their nominee
judging from the votes Mr.. Guey-
dan received in previous cam
paigns and in the race he made
for Lieutenant Governor.

MIR. TAYLOR ELECTED.

Last Wednesday the returns
Of the Democrat Primary for
Railroad Commissioner was &C M
piled by the State Central Com
mlttee who declared Hon. Shell

NEE for the important position
row filled by him. Hon. }. 5.
Power. Iberia s candidate who
was present at the count which
was only partly finished owing
to the fact that the returns OF
several Parishes had not yet ar
rived stated to the Committee
that inasmuch as the time al
lOtted for the returns to be III
had arrived, he did not care to
have the Committee wait another
day for the returns and pre-
ferred not to force another cleo
ton solely upon technlcallty OF
that nature. The committee then
declared Mr.. Taylor the choice
OF the Democrats in the District.
While we regret Mr.. Power de-
feat it is a consolation to us to
know that he made noble fight
gong up against great obstacles.
In this, the Third Congressional
District there were no other con-
tests to bring out the vote, while
in Mr.. Taylor's stronghold the
voters turned out en- masse and
voted for him. Right here in
Iberia the rain storm on the day
Of the election also prevented a
large number Of his supporters
from showing themselves at the
polls. necessarily reducing his
vote one-half. Another obstacle
he could not overcome was the
influence Of the Progressive or
ganization in the lower parishes
to keep the voters away from the
Democratic primaries. something
hat has never occurred before.
Had this condition been foreseen
when Mr.. Power announced
himself for the position his
friends would have advised him
to keep out of the contest.
We are satisfied the gentleman,
however defeated, has made
MANY friends throughout the
State and at some future time
we hope to see him honored by
the people of the State. While
addressing the State Central
Committee. Mr.. Power. we are
pleased to report, pledged HIM
self to bend his every effort to
see Mr.. Taylor victorious over the
candidate to be placed into nomi-
nation by the Progressive Party
at some future date.

DOINGS OF THE POLICE

at it's regular meeting last
Thursday, the Police Jury con-
tinued its effort is to secure the

the construction of dipping watts

cities Of New Iberia and Jeane-
rette. each having already agreed
to pay one-third. thus removing
The sole obstacle, and we under
stand, insrring the location OF
the farm on the east side the
Teche, opposite Rosedale Plan
tation. Other matters Of public
interest were the acceptance OF
the resignation Of Engineer V. T.
Guilfoux and final arrange
nents made for the immediate
construction of the New Iberia
Avery Island Road. This high
way, to be constructed by Mr..
Lourd. under the direction Of the
Police Jury, is intended to be a
model road in the full sense. 1t
is proposed to give particular at
tention to the drainage by dig
ing large ditch on either side
the road from end to end, and
10 use the earth in raising the
road above the line of saturation.
Should it be possible with the
funds provided, the jury intends
20 avail itself Of the generous Of
fer of the Avery Planting and
Development Co., and surface
~" entire length with the ex-
cellant quality Of sand stone from
the Island, and thus make a
highway connecting
New Iberia with the SAT- Mines.
1t has been suggested. that If
the farmers and others interest
ed. would contribute the SER
vices of one team and man for a
day, that the material for sur
facing the road corld be hauled
and spread with but little cost
to any and insure perfect road
for all times to come. Iberia
Parish has long been a sufferer
by its system of bad roads and
the efforts of the Jury to better
conditions should be appreciated
and encouraged. and the above
suggestion should appeal to all
and be carried out, not only by
farmers and residents interested,
brt by every merchant who wish
cs to extend his trade and to
contrihnte to the prosperity of
this City.

CHAMBER OF COMMERC E.

On Thursday last PRESIDENT
Estorge with a number of other
gentlemen comprising the Board
of Directors Of the Chamber OF
Commerce appeared before the
Police Jury for the purpose OF
appealing to them to make an
APPROPRIATION as was done 10y the
City Council for the maintenance
Of the Chamber of COmmecce
who has employed a paid Sec
rotary Manager to conduct the
affairs of the Association. We
were much gratified with the ac-
ton of the members Of the Jury
who readily approved OF the
Undertaking to be carried on by
the Chamber and voted an ap.
preparation Of Forty Dollars per
month for one year. AS stated
by Mr.. Estorge and others. this
Association while called the New
Iberia Chamber of Commerce was
organized to promote the welfare
of the entire Parish and indica-
tons pointed to great deal OF
valuable work being done since
trey had met with such hearty
cooperation on the part Of the
citizens as a whole While some
little time will be devoted in en-
deavoring to get some small IN
dustries hereabouts, most of the
work devolv1ng upon the Seore-
tary-Manager will be in finding
markets for our products. With
out markets we can never nope
to be anything but a one-crop
country and as we all know our
lands are especially adapted to
most anything in the way OF
truck as well as sugar cane. corn,
rice and cotton and there is no
sense or reason IN continuing
this section as a one crop agrl-
cultural country when conditions
should be otherwise. due to our
splendid railroad facilities. The
farmers of Tangipahoa and other
Parishes are succeeding admir-
ably with diversification, mar
keting their products on a whole
sale scale while the markets are
such that it is profitable to make
shipments. 1t is only by raising
truck on the wholesale scale
while in season that we can ever
hope to make this country pros
porous. Let all pull together
and assist Mr.. Bernard with his
work and we feel certain if our
ia. mers will plant when direct
ed. the best markets will be
found at the proper time. 70
day we find dozens Of buyers OF
rice and corn in this section pay
ing good prices and begging tor
the privilege. This same condl-
ton will apply to growers OF
sweet potatoes. cauliflower, Gu
c'lmbt rs. onions, beets. lettuce,
toma toes. Irish potatoes, o1ra,
ar.C in fact every known 7e,,-
etable if we only 60 into the
business on wholesale scale.
Our people must no longer be
doubling Thomases, if they ever
hope to raise anything other
than sugar cane. They must pin
their faith to an Association who
will devote their best to find the
but they must have the
stuff to ship at the proper time.
Freight rates can be obtained
and our railroads will give the
service once they know that We
are sincere and really have some
thing to ship over their lines.

to such a position has a private fortune
he is greatly embarrassed by the condi-
tons with which he Is confronted. The
allowance for rent is too small to enable
him to make any decent showing in COM
parison with the housing of the repre-

content with the lamentably Inadequate

must go into his own purse for supple
ment This government should not ex-
pect of its foreign representatives such
sacrifices are frequently made for the
purpose of maintaining establishments of

Doubtless the Senate committee was in
spired by desire to economic. perhaps
in consequence of privately conveyed in
formation that the prospective revenues
of the government will not meet the ex-
penditures. If that is the case there are
ways and means of economy more com
menda BILE than the checking of the sys-
tenn of providing permanent homes for
American representatives abroad. The
scale on which these acquisitions already
undertaken are based is a moderate one
and surely the United States can afford
to go on with this undertaking, which
so directly affects its international pres

If it is replied that neither place is
