10 The Voters of Washing
ton Parish,

F'rankIinton, La, oct. IL
Having heretofore announced
nv candidacy for the office OF
REPRESENTATIVE Of your parish l
deem it but fair to you to state my
views on the most vital questions
now confronting the people which,
if am elected, probably will be
settled during the time | hold the
Office which | now seek.
First-I am unalterably opposed
to any increase in taxation,
either municipal, parochlal or
state. for the reason that | be-
lieve that the revenues now de.
rived from taxation in tie
state, as we'll as in all it's subdi-
visions, are ample to meet the
necessary expenses, if admins
trated in an economical way, as
they should be.
Second-I am in favor of plac'
ing all public officials on salary
basis, and abolishing the fee
system. | believe in placing
every man on the same basis, as
the fee system enables the officer
while in office, as it were, to pun
;eh his enemies and reward his
e friends.''
q Third-I am opposed to the
. creation of any new offices Or
anv increase of the salaries of the
I, the present officers. | believe in
d the consolidation Of offices where
) practicable, and the abolishmen
Of Of such Offices as are useless. II
to other words | believe that tn
ID state and parish business should
in he handled as prudent bushes
nan wonld use and administer
Of his own.
'a' Eo,rth-I am in favor of pro
10 hibition, and if elected l pleeg

Many were picked up by boatmen. who are still at work rescuing the unfortunates.

SYRACUSE, N. Y., April 23.-Ex, President Theodore Roosevelt lost his good humor yesterday under cross examination when he was forced to answer questions regarding how he had traded with Barnes to secure the gubernatorial nomination of New York in 1898. Roosevelt admitted that he had promised Barnes patron age power, and agreed to consult him in all important political matters. In return Barnes had forced his nomina' tion from Boss Platt and had worked to secure his election. spending thou sands of dollars gathered from cor pora ions and other sources unknown to Roosevelt
 Roosevelt was also forced to admit that he was elected Governor of New York when as a matter of fact he was a resident of Washington. having sworn off his taxes in New York by claiming residence in the capital.

UNION HAT1ERS
 ARE IN TROUBLE
Must Pay Judgment of $soo,ooo or Homes Will Be Taken From
 Them Next Month.

DANBURY. Conn.,, April 23.-The members of the Hatters Union of this city have been notified by the attor- neys for the Danbury Hat company and the National Manufacturers As. sociation that unless the judgment for $500, 1000 damages for the boycott against the company during strike in 1902 was provided for by the con. vention of matters to be held in May, that the homes of the workers would be levied upon.
 The individual members of the Danbury Matters Union insist that they made the fight at the request of the American Federation of Labor and that the federation should, therefore, pay the judgment. The Federation of Labor denies this Just what the outcome will be is unknown.
 The manufacturers have spent more than $10O,OOO in making the fight against the boycott. claiming it was a violation of the Sherman antitrust law and they won the case after many years of fighting through the courts. They insist that they be paid the judgment granted by the supreme court, which is now effective and leaves them no appeal.

GERMANY. HAS
 SOME NEW RULES
Will Confiscate Conditional Contra. band of War Even When Shipped
 To Neutral Country.

WASHINGTON, April 23-The Ger man foreign office has advised the State Department of the new revised list of contraband and informed the department that the conditional con- traband list shall include all goods that may be of service to the enemy, which are shipped in neutral coun- tries with which the enemy may trade.
 The new rules include coal, coke, pig iron, aeroplanes and many other staples which heretofore have been allowed to pass into the countries with which Germany is at war.
 The announcement that the German nation would confiscate conditional contraband, which includes almost every article that can be of service to the non-combatant, even when it is on neutral ships and consigned to a'neutral country with which the bel ligerent power may trade, will cer- tainly call for a protest by the Amer ican State Department, as it would mean the end of the export business of the United States.
 Ship owntrs have urged the State Depa:tlEen. to impress upon the Ger man gov erament the fact tEat lcn a rule w,uld destroy Anne 'ican tom' merce and must not be enforced.
