ON the sands OF time"
Hon. J. W. Elston, for years a resi-
dent Of Bossier Parish, died at his
home in Shreveport, at 1890 O'Clock
last Saturday night from heart failure,
due, it is thought, to a recent attack OF
dengue fever. He lived about twenty
four hours following the fatal attack
and was conscious until the time of his
death.
sThe funeral services were held from
the family residence, at 552 Jordan
Street, Sunday afternoon at four
o'clock, and were conducted by Rev..
III. F. Brooks, of the First Methodist
Church, that city, after which the re-
mains were taken in charge by Joppa
Lodge, #. and A. NJ, and were laid at
rest in Forest Park Cemetery, with
full Masonic honors. A large number
Of friends Of the deceased from Ben
ton and other points in Bossier Parish
attended the funeral.
Mr.. Elston was born in Admission,
Ala, Nov. 8, 1860. Coming from hum
BILE parentage and being left an orphan
ut an early age, he was distinctly a
self-made man. He came to Bossier
Parish during 1885, locating in Haugh-
ton, at which point he was for four
years agent for the w., s. and r. Rail-
road. Later he established in Haugh-
ton a mercantile business, which he
successfully conducted for a number Of
years During his residence in this
parish, he was keenly interested in
public affairs and served for several
years as a member of the Police Jury,
becoming its president, and also repre-
sented the parish in the State Legisla-
ture. During 1912 he went to Shreve-
port to make his home and was for
several years connected with the
American National Bank. During 1915
he organized the firm Of Elston, Prince
& McDade, to conduct wholesale gro
Gerry business, and remained at the
read Of this successful organization
until the time Of his death.
During 1887 the deceased was united
in marriage to Mrs. Elinor Gilmer, and
to this union were born ten children,
one of whom, son, died in infancy.
The surviving immediate relatives are
The widow, three daughters, Mrs. Bu-
ford ID. Battle and Miss Emily Elston,
Of Shreveport, and Mrs. Ross Il. Me
Dade, Of McDade; six SONS, Mr.. d. C.
Elston, Of McDade; Mr. T.. NJ Elstoil,
Of Haughton, and Messrs. J. W., w. W.,
II. l. and H. d. Elston, OF Shreveport
one sister, Mrs. J. W. Prince, OF
ITaughton, and one brother, Mr.. C. II.
ESton, of Dubferly.
Perhaps one of the highest tributes
that could be paid to Mr.. Elston's
character is the fact that one who un-
til the day Of Mr.. Elston's death was
stranger in the state finds it so easy

to prepare this article. The footprints
that he has left upon the sands Of time
are SO indelible and SO impressive that
the very atmosphere seems SO permeat-
ed with his praise that even to those
who never met him personally he
seems almost an old acquaintance, and
of one so universally known and be
loved in Bossier Parish as the deceased
there is little that needs to be said by
friend or stranger. The memory OF
such a man as the late j. w. ElstOn
will never fade, and any attempt to
describe his character must seem
feeble to those who knew him best.
He was man of whom it can truly be
said: "he was a friend of man." He
was the kind Of a man who would
'build his house by the side of the
road" that he might be friend to
those who pass by. He was the kind
Of a man who lived up to that beauti-
full little stanZa:
!" Lord help me live from day to day
In such self n-forgetful way
That even when kneel to pray
My prayer shall be for others"
Though keen, shrewd business man
and active in business affairs, his was
not sordid mind. He never became
SO absorbed. in material things that he
could nots appreciate the beauties Of
Nature He was never too busy to stop
to listen to the song of bird, to ad-
mire the beauty and fragrance Of a
flower, to pat little child on the
head, to speak a cheering word to a
friend or to help some one along hfe's
way" Mr.. Elston's body rests in the
grave; his spirit has passed into that
realm from whose hourn no traveller
returns, but he has left behind him a
character and memory that will be
to him an imperishahle monument, one
that will be an example and an in
spiration not only to those who knew
him, but to those of us who only knew
Of him. It is good to have lived in the
same world with such man. May God
raise up many more like him. Rim.

Even Senator McCumber, in
charge of the bill, and other Repub-
lican senators like Cummins, of Iowa,
Frelinhuysen, Of New Jersey, and
Townsend, Of Michigan, openly ad-
NIT that this is no time to pass q
tariff bill. But this is not the reason
why Republican leaders and the Re
publican administration are trying to
find the way to shelye the bill until
after the election. They fear defeat
at the polls, and this fear is the only
consideration that would prevent
them from carrying out their con-
tract with the special privilege class
to mulct the general public through
profiteering tariff rates.
The tariff bill. which was one Of
Mr.. Harding's administration assets,

TARIFF ALARMING G. O. p.

The detection of Republican sena-
tors over the Fordney-McCumber tar
iff BILL following the general defec-
ton of the Republican press is
alarming the administration and the
Republican national organization.
Like the man who was swing the IT,
ger by the tail. Republican senators
are hollering for someone to help
them let 60. Senators like LaFollette,
of Wisconsin, for instance, would
like to recommit the bill and have
the schedules revised downward, and
are freely predicting Republican de-
feat this fall unless this in done.
Other Republican senators favor
postponing the passage Of the tariff
bill until after the election, and still
others would like 10 throw 1t out the
window and the ship subsidy bill
with it.
Speaking by-and-large the Fordney-
McCnmber tariff bill Is becoming
about as popular as case Of small
pox. The Democratic senators have
analysed it and vivisected 1t SO
thoroughly that all of the infamies
an iniquities OF the schedules SO Tar
discussed have been exposed and
made plain to the general public.
These exposures show that the ex-
tortiate profiteering rates Of the bill
are not comparable to anything short
of burglary In the first degree. The
popular reaction against the bill has
so affected some Republican sena
tors that they tre beginning TO do
clare their intention to vote against
it unless certain schedules are large
ly reduced.
Senator Lenroot, of wisconsin, re-
Gently said, "If rates like this are to
be written in the bill in any great
number I shall be relieved of any OBJ
legation to support it."
Senator Norris, Of Nebraska, had
previously declared, "We cannot de-
fend a bill built on these principles.
You may get the votes to put ii
through. but warn you now that we
will be the sufferers"
The latest insurgent against the
bill is Senator Edge. of New Jersey.
who said, "The passage of this hard
and fast tariff bill without oportun-

WAREHOUSES; NOT NEEDED
BY POOL ARE TO BE SOL

Warehouse and other property
owned by the Burley Tobacco Grow
ers' Cooperative Association. but not
needed by 1t for the transaction of
its business, will be sold at auction
to the highest bidder, Director of
Warehouses Ralph NJ Barker said,
as soon as arrangements can be
made to advertise them and arrange
for the sales.
"In some towns we have two ware
houses, where only one is needed"
said Director Barker. In other towns
we have three or four receiving
plants where two are ample to care
for the business. In some county
seats we have no warehouses and
where it is practicable to do 80, in
establishing new receiving plants,
the warehouses not needed will be
dismantled and moved to the loca-
tion of the new receiving plants.
"In acquiring the warehouse prop
erty we now hold we have also ac-
quired a number Of lots, which could
be sold for building lots, and a few
other buildings, including some
dwellings. Those will be disposed of
at auction to the highest bidder, as
well as our excess receiving plants.
Because of the inconvenience of
handling tobacco in some of the
hurley counties which have been
signed up or which now are signing
up their crops literally to the associ-
alton, the growers being compelled
to ship for considerable distances or
being forced to a long haul to mar
ket, we have decided to establish re-
ceiving plants at four new points in
Ohio, four in West Virginia, one in
Indiana and five in Kentucky. The
Kentucky points are: Stanford. Mt.
OIivet, Georgetown, Greensburg and
Columbia"
Mr.. Barker said that in each case
the warehouse or receiving plant es-
tablished would be financed locally !
and in case of removals of plants |
dismantled at other points the ex-
pense would be paid by local stock
holders. who then would offer the
warehouses to the association on the
same terms as the other plants taken
over by the association have been
bought.
Director aBrker has finished the
work of taking over the receiving !
plants at every point in the district
save two and in those but one ware
house In each remains to be decided |
to the association. OF the 1870 plants
available in the hurley district at the
time of the organization of the asso-
citation y22 have been decided to it
and two more will be as soon as the |
necessary adjustment Of values is
made.
In less than a dozen cases, Direc- |
tor Barker said, in arriving at the
values of the property taken over by
the association, was 1t necessary to
use the services of arbitrators.
