BROUSSARD

THE CAREER OF Robert f
Broussard must Impress his PEG
pie with the inspiration that talent
and character, unalded by fortune,
may bring place, power, and repu-
tation. 1t must stir in them a sol
emn pride that a long tide of pow.
er and repute may come to an hon
est man, and leave him whole
hearted and pure minded, unscar-
red 10y temptation 10 yield the
right for victory, or to stoop low
for gain.
As lawyer, as district attorney.
congressman, and senator, "Bob'
BrOussard made multitudes of
friends. He was entitled to them,
for he was loyal ard generous.
Affection for him was widespread
and deep, both in Louisiana and
Washington, and extended to
many of those with whom he con
tended. He had that faculty Of
winning and captivating men,
which belongs to the warm heart
ed. HIS passing will bring a tear
to many an eye in Louisiana and
sadness to many hearts more.
MAGNETIC IN personality,
and natural leader, Broussard
established himself as political
chieftain Of the Third Congress
sional District. By the force of
those qualities, and by the practic
81 value of his services in Congress,
particularly to the sugar interests
of the state, during the many
years he was there, be so won the
district that opposition to him was
never considered.
He never "fell into line" for old
abuses, even though those who
profted by them might be in a pc.
sition to give him trouble in his
campaigns. He held aloft from
combinations of politics, and upon
all specific state issues he stood
for cleaner and better conditions
10 life and politics.
He refused to profit by oppres
sion or to submit to it. Upon one
occasion in his campaigning, he
encountered what he took to be
tactics in his adver
'aries. He made speech, at one
,f his meetings. in the Third Dis
riot, denouncing those tactics.

mates of the Navy Department for the
