Garrison. There have recently ap-

Ex-President Taft said: "I have not

standing by this administration in ma
tional crises, without regard to party.
'T am profoundly anxious to avoid
the disaster toward which I believe
the present (Philippine) policy is

thinking it is near at hand.
"I hope for a Republican admins

EMBARK ON LONG TRIP.
Mr.. and Mrs. Elwood Lloyd Coming
to New Orleans in Frail Canoe.

Elaborate ceremonies incident to
the three hundredth anniversary of
the opening of the trail from Lake
Chautauqua, N. Y, to New Orleans,
eliminated Saturday, when Mr.. and
Mrs. Elwood Lloyd boarded frail
birch bark canoe and started on the
long journey to New Orleans. The
pair left Mayville, N. Y. and are due
to arrive in New Orleans the week
before Mardi Gras.
The historical significance of the
journey to be made by Mr.. and Mrs.
Lloyd is of 3ore than passing interest
to the people of this saetion. Etienne
Brule, one of Champlain's able lieu
tenants, was the first white man to
traverse the route from Lake Erie to
the Gulf of Mexico, that will be fol-
lowed by the daring adventurers now
en- route to New Orleans. Brule's
expedition was made in 1915, and was
for the purpose of pacifying certain
Indian tribes and determining dis
trict to which France might lay claim.
Mr.. and Mrs. Lloyd will be re-
ceived at New Orleans as the official
sent down by the peo-
pie of northern New York. Ar
rangements for their reception and
entertainment will be formulated by
the Association Of Commerce, and
as Mr. Lloyd has Expressed desire
to tender his canoe to the Southern
Yacht Club as a souvenir of the trip,
it is more than probable that the club
will assist in the welcome.

SETTLING SUGAR QUESTION.
More Optimistic Tone to Situation
in Louisiana.

The practical settlement of the in
dustrial phase of the sugar situation
in Louisiana, brought about by the
visit to the state of President Babst
Of the American Sugar Refinery, and
following several conferences be-
tween that official and the sugar
planters, has lent a decidedly op-
timistic tone to the general CONNER
cial conditions in New Orleans and
Louisiana. Much of the credit for
the new situation is given to L. NJ.
Poole, vice president of the Hibernia
Bank and Trust Company, who was
very active in bringing the sugar
planters and the refinery interests
together. For one thing, the planters
discove@ed that Presidents Babst is
very earnest in his desire. to bring
about better feeling toward his
company, and this he seems to have
successfully accomplished.
The expected announcement from
Secretary McAdoo, that sugar would
not go on the free list, also lent a
more optimistic tone to the entire SUI
gar situation in Louisiana, which has
had its effect upon the financial stu
alton as well.
The operations of the Federal Re-
serve Bank in New Orleans, whereby
the financing of the crop and the
storage of a large part Of the output
were simpliiied, also gave the plant
ers deserved relief, great many
of them thereby being able to hold
their stocks and not dump them on
the market at one time as heretofore.
