MUNICIPAL OWNERSHIP

The question of selling the
city's light and water plant to the
trolley line is being again sgitat.
ed. 1t Is claimed by the advo
Gates of the consolidation of the
two plants that only by this
means can the trolley be made to
pay. The city of New iberia is
now getting from it's light and wa
ter plant service easily worth
$1,000 per month and for which
the city Is not paying one cent.
Should there be demand, for
some special occasion, for some
200 or 800 lamps strung along the
streets for night, week, or a
month, they can be had for no
greater cost than the material and
labor for putting them up. If the
Fire Department decides that an
extra fire bydrant would do much
towards reducing the risk of fire
loss, or towards the protection of
some factory or business concern,
such hydrant could be put in un.
der existing conditions at no
greater cost than the needed mate
rials and labor. With a privately
owned or controlled water and
light plant such services would In
volve a cost of materials and la
Dor plus a fair rental.
1t is demonstrable that the
plant owned by the city is not
costing the people more than the
special tax voted sixteen years
ago to pay for the plant. That
tax, we believe, expires this year
by limitation. The plant as pres
emily equipped should MAINTAIN 1t.
self. II 20, New Iberians have
the rare privilege of enjoying free
public light and water services.
Why should Iberians give this
away-either for the present or
for the future.

N. o. Item.

N, o. Item.
John Nj Parker sent a telegram
to the third district congressional
committee of the Progressive par
ty Monday in which he calls on
the Bull Moose of Louisiana to
keep up the fight against the Dem
ocrats. The message, which ans
wers the question of whether Par
ker will return to the Democracy,
was AZ follows:

form unanimously adopted and
unanimously restlirmed in 1916,
says:
"Tbe deliberate betrayal of its
trust by the Republican party, the
fatal incapacity of the Democratic
party to deal with the new issues
of the new time, have compelled
the people to forge a new irstru
ment of government through
which to give effect to their will
in laws and institutions

"We should demand immediate
resignation of those endorsing
other parties, should strictly ad

support and cooperation of all
parties working for national good
and human welfare.

A new COMPLAINT.

A German whose wife was i'll at
the Seney Hospital, called the
first evening she was there and in.
quired how she was getting along
He was told that she was improv.
ing.
Next day he called again, and
was told che was still improving.
This went on for some time, each
day the report being that his wife
was improving.
Finally one night when he call
ed he was told that his wife was
dead. Seeing the doctor, he went
up to him and said, with a world
of sarcasm in his voice:
"Vell, doctor, vat did she die of
improvements" si"-Medical Pick

PROGRESSIVE MEETING

The Progressive executive com
mittee met here today with a full
quorum, Mr. e A Pharr presid
ing Primaries were called for
Sept. 2l Judge w. p. Martin
Congressman from the third dis.
trict gave out the following state
ment.
Statement made by Judge W :.
Z. Martin before Third Congress
sional Executive Committee:
Two years ago large majority
OF the voters of this, the Third
Congressional District, resenting
the free trade policy of the Demo
cratic party, as embodied in the
provisions Of the Underwood Bill,
severed their connections with
that organization and joined a
party that stood for the fair and
adequate protection for all Amerl
can industries
Party ties are not lightly brok-
en-. and this step was not taken by
the voters of this District until
after careful consideration and
due deIiberatlon
But when we were deserted by
those who stood pledged to pro.
tect us, when our every interest
was attacked, when the Under
wood Bill, with one tell swoop,
placed our products upon the
"Free List" aud ruin and disaster
stared US in the face. self respect
and self preservation compelled
US to leave the Democratic Party,
and affiliate with a party for
whose principles we could stand,
and whose platform held out some
hope for the future.
Upon this clear out issue of pro
lection versus free trade, the vOt
ers of the third Congressional dis
trict, did me the distinguished
honor of electlng me an their Rep
resentative in the Gath Congress
by a majority of approximately
fifteen hundred votes.
And, now, upon the eve Of a
charge in the National Admins.
tration, the people of this District
are again called upon to decide
the Issue of protection versus free
trade.
The Democratic party, in Ma
tional Convention Assembled has
again declared in favor of free
trade by endorsing the provisions
of the Underwood bill, while the
progressive and republican par
ties have both reaffirmed their be-
lief in protective tariff, fairly
and scientifically adjusted, SO as
to assure adequate protection to
all American industries, and |
American Labor.
AS the Representative IN Con-
gress Of the Third Congressional
District, / have consistently advo-
Gated, voted and stood for protec
tiOn.

and adequate duties upon sugar,

and all other products of this

and With any Party that stands
for the protection of such Indus
tries.
Upon this issue, now an

Certain papers with glaring
headlines announce the three
quarter extra tax, by saying 1t
was to cover debt left by Gov.

IL goes. but they might in common
decency have said it was created
BY previous administrations, espe.
