Freedoms Inspiration.

True patriotism is not a sentiment,
but a life. Understood in any other
way it is a delusion.. If all Americans
were to live easy, luxurious and SELF

their duty to country, our liberties
would not last over night. Fortunate

Not q siener Of Declaration.

A portrait In Independence hall, rec.
0gnized for 20 years as that of Will
liam Whipple, a signer of the Declare
ton of Independence, has turned out
to be in reality picture Of Joseph
Whipple, a brother of the signer. As
the latter parsonage had no historical
association, the painting has been re-
moved from its place in gallery No. l..
The discovery was made by Ports
mouth IN. H. woman who is a de-
scendant of the Whipple family. The
original portrait, of which the one that
hung in Independence hall is copy,
was handed down in her family as that
Of Joseph Whipple.

LAFAYETTE COUNCIL OF DE.
TENSE SCORES GAMBLING

Reports from various sections of
the parish show that gambling is
carried on very openly and quite ex-
tensively, and many instances are
cited where great hardship has re-
suited to families whose natural
protectors have been fleeced by
sharpers. Not long since the city of
Lafayette abolished gambling and as
a result Of the strict enforcement of
the law compelled the profession
to quit town, but they have found
other pastures fresh and green in the
rural districts where they are "mak-
ing hay while the sun Shines" Gam
blers are parasites and should be
eliminated with all of their kind by
the strong arm of the law, for the
State Constitution declares the bust
ness 'vice" and directs the Legis-
lature to suppress it.
It would seem to be eminently
proper and opportune therefore that
the Police Jury should take up the
subject and enact such ordinances
as would protect the people, especi-
ally the young men, from this Wis
cious class who prey upon the hard
earnings of honest men dipping them
in hundred ways. Not only does
much suffering follow among inno-

REDUCTION OF FIRE RATES

Now that the City of Lafayette has
rectified good many defects in it's
fire protection, installed first
class alarm system and possesses a
splendid fire engine with a full
complement of apparatus for ex-
tinguishing fires, the Gazette would
again call attention to the fact that
Insurance rates still stand as high as
ever and in many sections are posi-
lively prohibitive. While it may
not be that the city can be rated
first-class it would seem to be an
easy matter for rating in the second
class which would materially lower
the figures in all parts of the town.
II in addition to the splendid equip
ment for the paid fire department,
the city would enforce ordinances as
to defective flues of all kinds and
especially metal flues running
wooden walls and single roofs,
thousands could be saved in lower
rating. Every individual risk must
pay for every exposure and every
defect in the flues and these cause
the charge to be so much higher.
An appeal therefore should be
made for new survey of the town
by the Fire Prevention Board for
the purpose Of adjustment of rates
and new classification for the city.
The Gazette would suggest that the
City Council make the request and
the Board act promptly giving all
material facts and reasons therefore.
Lafayette has splendid fire record
and for years no serious conflagra-
ton has visited the city, mainly due
to our fine water system and the
prompt and efficient work of our
gallant volunteer department. Let
no time be lost in this vital matter.

President Tener Tells
Umps to Wipe Out Rowdies

New York, June 19.-President
John X. Tener of the National League
was just beginning to enjoy the i'm
preston that his umpires were keep
ing the players we'll in hand, when
his dream of peace on the diamonds
in his league was rudely shattered at
the Polo Grounds. Player Fitzpat-
rick, of the Braves. was the principal
disturber in an alteration with Um-
pire Quigley, and was later fined $50
and suspended indefinitely.
Following the trouble, Governor
Tener issued a new set of laws to
his arbiters He told them to stamp
out the troublemakers at the first
sign of an outbreak. and hereafter
the squawkers will be banished when
they get rough If the governors or
ders are carried out. BanishinS play
ers often works a hardship on a ball
club, and as a rule the arbiters are
as lenient as possible. But when play
ers become unruly there is only one
thing for the umpire to do, and that
is to hang the ancient order of tin on
him. In cases of this kind the man
ayers are partly TO blame. They
should warn their players against
kicking beyond a reasonable limit.
