DEATH CLAIMS
FORMER EMPRESS

Doorn, Holland. April 11.-Former
Empress Augusta Victoria of Germany
died here at 6 o'clock this morning
By strange coincidence the end came
just one year after she suffered her
first serious attack of heart disease.
It was while she was preparing to
enter the house of Doom, the present
home of the former emperor of Ger
many, after her long residence at
Anerongen, that she was stricken
what at the time was believed to be
a fatal attack. That was on April II,
1920. For few days there were re-
ports that her death was momentarily
expected, but she rallied and accom-
panied her husband to Doom May Is
last.

The message of President Hard
ing to the Joint session of the
SiXty-seventh Congress, at
o'clock, Tuesday, sounded the key
note of the policies of the ad
ministration. Many of the most
pointed declarations of the mes
sage were greeted with applause;
that regarding the league of ma
tions, turned the solemn assembly
into a noisy ovation for the presi-
dent. Many constructive policies
are outlined and concrete plans
suggested, but the message is not
able for the absence of sugges-
ton that might be construed as
dictorial; the president has stud
iously aimed not to encrOach up
on the province of congress. As
a whole the message is manly
and business-like declaration of
principles-the ground plan of
business administration; in view
of existing conditions it will rank
as among the greatest of Ameri-
can State papers.

SLATTERY FOR
U. s. ATTORNEY
Congressman Riddick and Mccormack
Recommend Glasgow Man For
Appointment by Pres.

Washington, April 14.-John L.
Slattery of Glasgow, state senator
from Valley county, is the selec-
ton of Representatives Carl w.
Riddick and Washington J. Nc
Cormick of Montana for the Of
flee of United States district at
tOrney in Montana and he has.
been recommended by them to
President Harding for appoint
ment.
The recommendation of Sena-
tor Slattery comes as the cOnclus-
ion of a contest which has been
participated in by number of at
tOrneys of the state who were
candidates for the office. Among
these were w. H. Meigs of Great
Falls, Justin Smith of Bozeman.
O. A. Gerth of Great Falls and
ii. l.. Wilson of Billings.
Senator Slattery is one of Glas-
COWS most distinguished and popular
citizens, and the news was received
with pleasure by his fellow townsmen,
many of whom We're congratulating
him this morning on the recommend
alton, feeling that congressional en-
dorsement was conclusive. He has
lived here for sixteen years during
which time he has been very active
in civic affairs, besides practicing his
profession; he married Miss Lear f.
Humphrey, who had been county sup
erintendent of schools, and both him
self and Mrs. Slatterv are important
units in Glasgow social and business
life. He has been quite active in pol
itics, having always been a Republi-
can, and having made an enviable rec
ord as county attorney, an office to
which he was elected at two separate
terms. During one of these terms out
of 72 criminal cases he obtained 70
convictions.
In speaking of Senator Slattery it
was said: "He is lawyer whose liber-
al education and scholarship have Civ
en- him enlightened views of mans re-
lation in human society, and of special
and economic justice. His law prac-
tice has not given him the ingrained
views of certain class-he can see
the other fellows point of view, and
comprehend what is right between
man and man."
In modestly mentioning what he has
done in Glasgow, in answer to a re-
porter's question, he said, "There is
one thing | am proud of, among other
war activities, l was chairman of the

PROFIT IN POTATOES

4 clear profit Of SO per acre was
realized by Peter Peterson on 100
acres of corn in 1920 when neighbors

shape for wheat or other small grain
and he is confident of making an even
greater profit.

RESOLUTION
Senator Knox Re-Introduces ResoIu.

Recommendation.

Washington, April Ex-senator
knox of Pennsylvania introduced
today his resolution to end the
state of war with Germany.
The measure is similar to that
which the last congress passed
and President Wilson vetoed.
The resolution, which also
would end the state of war with
the Austrian government, was
referred to the foreign relations
committee without discussion. 1t

rights under the treaty of YER

men will be acted on by the Presi-
dent soon, and the appointment, if
made, must then be confirmed by the
senate. Senator Slattery had receiv-
ed no word from Washington up to
noon today, and naturally declines to
say anything regarding the honor
which is to be conferred upon him at
this time. To hear that the appoint
ment has been made and confirmed,
will afford great pleasure to the Sen
ators large circle Of friends and ad-
mirers. 1t is the concensus of opin-
ion that no better appointment can
be made for this office.

article, as to the needs and advan
tages of these projects, would be M
unnecessary matter.

sources of game, fish. lumber. mos,

this business would mean to New

have water and road connections di.
rect with the salt water coast of the
Bay.
+ One feature, however, seems to
have been overlooked in the discus
sions Tuesday night, and that is the
possibilities Of developing for this
city a great tourist trade, built upon
the fact that we would then be the
most accessible point between Gal
weston and the Mississippi Gulf Coast
for tourists to get to salt water bath
ing, fishing and camping. With the
Old Spanish Trail nearing completion
and the great Pershing Way almost
ready to turn its thousands of tour
lists south through our parish, it is
high time for New Iberia to begin
preparing something for their enter
talnment if we expect to induce them
to stop over for day or two when
they reach our city. 1t is only when
they stop in a town for time that
the town gets the real benefits from
tourist tarilic.

out very strongly in the talks ofI
several Gentlemen on the road to the |
Bay project, and that feature alone
more than justifies the necessary ex

CITY PARK PROJECT is
GOING STRONG,
Movement Received With
Universal Support.

When it was made known last week
that the citizens Of New Iberia were
gong to finance City Park, and
that plans were well under way for
securing this adjunct to our commun-
ity life, there were some Of our less
optimistic citizens who said 1T can't
be DONE This expression is very
familiar around New Iberia, and
probably in the past few years has
done lot Of harm to the city The
spirit Of Cant BE Done,' however,
seems to be almost dead around this
burg, and "Sure We Can" is fast
taking its place.
With very little effort, and very
little time spent on the proposition,
by three or four men, something over
five thousand dollars has been pledg-
ed already, and the notes signed up
Over a thousand dollars more have
been promised but not signed for, but
can be counted good as cash,
1t is expected that within few
weeks at the most the sale to New
Iberia will be passed, and we will be
able to boast Of the finest City Park
in the State outside of the Crescent
City.

NEW IBERIA MAKING RENEWED EFFORT FOR CONNECTIONS BY ROAD
AND CANAL WITH BAY, LAKE AND SWAMP REGIONS
Enthusiastic Mass Meeting
Of Procedure, AT Court Tuesday

Renewed interest has this week de
veloped in the two projects that have
from time to time been discussed in
this city, looking to the connecting OF
New Iberia with the swamp sections
around the lakes and the Vcrmilion
Bay Coast line
Responding TO a call for special
mass meeting, issued by the Cham
ber of Commerce, nearly a hundred
citizens and taxpayers assembled in
the Parish Court House on Tuesday
evening ut eight O'Clock to talk over
! these two propositions, and to devise
means for carrying out the projects
The meeting was called to order by
| Mr. Alphonse Davis, acting Prcsi-
| dent of the Chamber of Commerce
He stated the purpose of the meet
ing, and then introduced Mr.. f. r.
Weeks, who spoke quite at len sth on
the adviSability, need, and benefits to
canals and roads under discussion.
Speaking of the canal and road to
the Bay, Mr. Weeks stated that there
are fully five hundred people residing
at Weeks Island, that would be glad
Of an opportunity to bring their trade
and business to New Iberia, if they
were afford means of communication
with this city. At present most of
this business goes to Franklin
1t was further stated that there
are many hundreds, if not few
thousand people living in the lake
region and swamps. that would be
only too glad if we were to open up
means for them to get into this city |
to do their trading. Their money
is now spent in either Morgan City
or Plaqumine, and it amounts to
thousands and thousands of dollars
each year.
Mr.. T. II. Burke was the next
speaker. He went somewhat into de-
tails ms to the different routes the
canals and roads might
take, and into the lie al aspect Of the

large amount of business that would
be brought to this place were the

the way from Fine to Rotten. How
ever, the most numerous criticisms
apparently are to the effect that il
was an average good home talent
performance, some parts being hi h
class, and other features being not
much to speak of.
Some remarkable talent was dis
covered in the staging of this per

ing the "stunt" wherein Mr. Tom
Berard gave an imitation Of n la
waiian Ukelclc, This was probably
the most interesting part of the en-
tire show, and novel in the extreme.
The act Of Mr. Bcrard and Mayor
LaSalle, in Satisfied" also had more
than ordinary merit. In fact we have
seen numbers of acts on the Orph-
cum stage, drawing large salaries,
that were not in the same class with
this stunt.

sible that at some future date these
