THE CHIEFS POSITION MIS-
UNDERSTOOD.

In a lengthy communication, pub
Used in last Tuesdays issue OF the
New Orleans Item, Senator K. B.
Butler Of Terrebonne, takes The
Chief to task for an article appearing
in its columns sometime ago, and up
on which the senator has placed the
wrong construction. -:
Mr.. Butler begins his communlca-
tlon by quoting from The Chief $
article, and then he says among other
things:
"trom the position and use Of the
word 'meritorious' and the tone Of
comment, it is obvious that The Chief
disapproves of the anti race-gamble
movement; while it is retreshlngly
candid in its designation OF those who
urged on the enactment, as 'fanat-
les
The Chief did not disapprove OF
anti-race gambling legislation. On the
contrary it favored and urged the
enactment of such law, as Mr.. But
ler could have ascertalned by refer
ence to other issues of the paper;
but The Chief deplored the fact that
most OF the time OF the session Of the
Legislature was consumed in a fruit
less discussion of the subJect t,sand in
the meantime much other Il -slatlon
of equal merit was neglected. and al
lowed to fall by the Wayside. Nor
was it intended by the wol1 Is ''meri-
torious Legislation" to class the anti
gambling bill as ''unmeritorfous' as
Mr. Butler seems to hold, since The
Chief would not have supported and
urged the passage of any antl~gam-
bling law if it had deemed it without
merit.
Mr.. Butler further finds fault with
the article which he interprets as re
ferring to those senators and repre-
sentatives who supported the meas
ure as fanatics" In this he is very
wide Of the mark. No reference
was made to legislators as "fanatics,' y
nor was it the purpose to reflect up
on the honesty of purpose and in
tegrity of any member Of the gen
eral assembly. There are many able
and splendid men in both houses of
the lawmakers, and these worked
hard to serve the best interests of
their state and people, but they did
not accomplish as much as they might
and would, had not the race-gambling
Legislation been permitted to monop-
olize SO great part of the time of
the session.

Pittsburg Man in Town.

Prof. William Albert Ramsey of
Pittsburg, Pa, a dry cleaning scien-
tist of nation wide repute, was in
town recently Investigating in behalf
Of the dry cleaning business, and was
successful in locating man capable
of operating this modern cleaning
process here in the person of Mr.. B.
Bayard The advantages of this
method are to wash garments in soap
and water without wetting or fading
the garment, and the merits of this
process, which is noted for its sue
cessful cleaning Of delicate fabrics,
such as silks, satins, chiffons, georg-
cite crepes, and also gloves, muffs,
furs and baby robes, and mems
clothing as well, are depended upon
in every large city in America. But
it is to be remembered this system is
to be operated exclusively by Mr..
Bayard, who has gone to quiet an ex-
pense to install this method of clean
ing in order to supply this commu-
nifty and his patrons with higher class
work, which demonstrates the fact
that he appreciates the patronage of
his establishment. Prof. Ramsey, who
is an authority in this line, advises all
dry cleaning to be taken to Mr. Ba-
yard, in order to receive the modern
results of today.
