RETHMANN HOLLWEG
 SIXTY TOMORROW

Dr. Theobald Theodore Frederic Alfred von Bethmann Hollweg, the Chancellor of the German Empire, will pass his sixtieth milestone to- morrow. as he was born on Nov. 29, 1856, the second son of Privy Councillor Felix von Bethmann Holl- veg The Chancellor has had a stormy time of 1t in the last year, as he has been subjected to frequent and bitter attacks by the advocates of "frightfulness" and the extreme annexati onists, who have denounced his policies and program as too mod crate. Bethmann Hollweg is the fifth Chancellor of German Empire, his predecessors having been Bismarck, Caprivi, Hohenlohe and Bluow. He is descended from the Bethmanns, a Jewish family long prominent in Frankfort finance, and the Prussian noble family of Hollweg. By tenn perament he is more the metaphysi- elan and philosopher than the states man, but he had the family traditions to uphold, and the Bethmann-Holl- veg clan has for generations been known as the sturdy defenders of the Hohenzollern dynasty. From the be- ginning of his official career as Land rat of Oberbarnim 30 years ago, Beth mann Ho1lweg has been known an one of the chief spokesmen for the divine rights of the Hohenzollerns In his public addresses he has dis missed "the idea of a sovereignty of the people, as unknown to the Prus- sian state, and only a few years ago, in the face of the heckling of the socialists, he asserted that "it must not be wondered at when democratic tendency appears to treat the king as the official of the people that the King of Prussia strongly emphasizes his consciousness that he is not sub ject to popular sovereignty" The Chancellor holds the rank of major in the Prussian army, and formerly wore the uniform of the unit pop uarly known as the Queen Victoria Guards" in honor of the late British queen.

How About Carriere?

Will Hiliare Carriere hang for
the murder of Sheriff Marion
Swords, or will crimes previously
committed cause him to be tried
and sentenced and thus defeat or
defer the penalty for one of the
most conspicius tragedies in the
annals of Louisiana? While it is
certain the desperate of st. Lam
day will meet his just deserts soon-
er or later, the public which he
has outraged would prefer to see
him reap the reward for the more
glaring crime. That he would get
a fair trial at Opelousas, no one
knows the people there doubt. The
sons of Marion Swords themselves
declare that vengence must be
through the strong arm of the law
and not through public passion.
