There was plenty of pep on tap at
a meeting of republicans last night,

In spite of the state of

hberations of the committee of sew

NATIONAL PAINTINGS

II is strange how poor our wealthy
government is in pictures that should
belong to the whole people. There are
plenty of them in art galleries and mu-
seums, but the nation itself owns very
few The fact gives point to Senator
Lodges effort to have the government
buy William f. Halsalls painting
"Our Glory" which depicts the chase
of the Spanish cruiser, Cristobal Colon,
by the Oregon. The government al
ready owns Mr.. Halsalls Battle Of

only his later work but Walkers

A Business Administration.

III 1t be true, as stated by Governor
Hall, and there can be no doubt of it.
that the States financial system is
broken down, the first thing needed is
change of doctors, then ought to fol-
low change of treatment. What is
primarily wanted in all the fiscal de-
partments of the State is trained, ex-
perienced and reliable financiers, men
who know all about the system and
will stick to the patient day and night
and see that he gets the right medicine,
the proper treatment and scientific nurs-
ing.
In this crucial emergency we natu-
rally turn to DR.. 0. B. Steele as a sci
entific expert, who has proven a sue
cess in both his public and private prac-
tee. Capt. Steele is probably the best
posted man in Louisiana's finances in
the entire State. When he was Audit
or. when he was Treasurer, the system
did not BREAK DOWN. 1t thrived and
prospered and properly cared for every
demand of all its institutions.
The beauty about Capt. Steele's adj
mInistration of the Auditors office is
that he sits on the job. His deputies
do the work of deputies, but his head
and hands run the Office. He is prac-
teal financier. and State finance is his
speciality.
The Auditor and Treasurer with the
Governor are to bring order out of
,haos in the States money matters.
The State cannot fail to secure such
services as Capt. Steele possesses
