has been made, and everybody will be
allowed to step out and cuss the cuse

peerless beer with less than-one per
cent alcohol that St Louis manufac-
lures to sell to folks that dent live
here Will ever fool anybody.
The demonstration would be cut
down by the new film trust, reckon,
to about 500 feet: which would be
perfectly justitiable II they'd march in
a suffrage demonstration from tho

were Of the nice. plump. engaging type
that these middle western suffragists
mostly are.
Sseonding Speeches Sad.
One Of the saddest things about the
national convention as 1t Is now staged
by amateurs, is the secondfng speech
Every state delegation has what old
Senator Cockerill once called a Jay
bird orator, who positively must be
given chance to mount the plat
form" and divest himself Of some
burning words So the nomination for
president is seconded by the first
rate jay birders. and the nominations
for vice president by the little Jay
birds; and it all takes several hours
during which the delegates don't dare
to go to sleep lest 1t might be re-
ported, and they would be refused tho
postoffice on the ground Of excessive
unpartisanship.
But put It in the movies and we
could have all the seconding speeches
in the barrel. in three feet apiece;
total time consumption. maybe quar-
ter Of an hour at the outside. That
gives time for ono more drink, and
convention that's being held four days
in ST. oLuis to do two hours business
in the vain hope that it will drink up
all the beer in the beertropolis. would
surely appreciate that sort Of consid-
Grafton.
Altogether, this project strikes me
as better and better as write more
and more about 1t. Having now writ
ten enough to fill the necessary space,
I shall leave my scheme in the hands
of the next arrangements committee.

Next Tuesday is the date
fixed by Mayor Sealy and the
City Physician, DR.. Carst ons, for
another general cleanup campaign
in New iberia in accordance with
the laws Of the State Board Of
Health. While there is some
yards in this City as clean as
could be expected. still there are
others that the officials will in
slst be put into such condition as
not to impair the health Of the
people in general. On Wedncs-
day and Thursday the garbage
wagons will collect all of the
trash that has been placed in
n location where it can he reached
and carted off as the administra-
ton has been doing for some
wears. This is the time Of the
wear when every community is I'M
a general cleaning up
and New Iberia needs it about as
bad as any other, more especially
that we are not provided with
sewage. 1t then bchOoves our
GOOD citizens to cooperate with
he City officials and thus ahrogate
the necessity Of them invoking the
law to obtain it's enforcement.
We feel certain every real good
citizen will do his best to help the |
officials Of New iberia keep it in

According to the records of the po-

than wet cities Of the same size. Au.

tration, had 1,005 arrests for drunken
ness, while in dry Rockford, with the
same population, there were only 719
arrests. Wet Joliet had 1852 arrests
for drunkenness while dry Decatur had
966. Both towns are of the same size.
Still another instance was the 1919 ar
rests in East ST. Louis as against asa
in dry Galesburg. The reports show
that the majority of these arrests was
due to the introduction of liquor from
the surrounding wet territory.

LABOR CONDEMNS SALOON.

'The time has come in this country
when even men who take an occasion
al drink and feel it their right and
privilege to do so, If they please,
are coming to agree that it is not
right for a ma to make it his bust
ness to cultivate the vices of a COM
munity, and to take from men money
that belongs TO their families, giving
them in exchange liquid madness, bru-
tally, insanity and damnation."
These words were spoken by Rev.
William B. Willard in an address at
a remarkable labor meeting held in
Garrick theaEer, Chicago. 1.-THE labor
union, like the church." continued Mr..
Willard, SHOULD regard the open sa-
loon as its greatest enemy. The time
has come, nay is so near, that the rosy
radiance of the glorious dawn already
greets our eyes, when the saloon will
be abolished and the barkeeper out
lawed, so that a man may no longer
be waylaid on payday and sent home
to his broken-hearted wife and terri.

Tremendous applause greeted these
sentiments. The theater was packed

STARTS A CHARITABLE FAD

Madame Bakhmeteff, the wife of the
Russian ambassador, has taken a flyer
in fashions, and in introducing to the
rich and exclusive set at Newport the
brilliantly colored cotton and silk
shawls such as the peasants of her
adopted country wear. she has at the
same time given a stimulus to the cot
ton trade which should materially in
creas the Russian market for Ameri-
can cotton.
When women of fashion are more
or less taking on the accouterments of
wa in the style of their hats and
coats and the picturesque dress of the
peasants of many of the countries ar
war, this innovation of Nine. Bakme-
teff in the way of a light wrap for
either morning or evening has become
a charity as well as a fad, for the
manufacture of these shawls or scarfs
helps the cottage peasant industries
of Russia. furnishing work to hundreds
of women and children while the men
are at the front. These shawls.ar a
