ANNOUNCES HIS
PLATFORM
IN A CONCISE MANNER HE SETS
FORTH HIS CLAIMS FOR AS
PIRING TO THE STATE'S
HIGHEST OFFICE.
HIS ATTITUDE IS A PLAIN ONE
THE NEEDS OF THE STATE ARE
EXPLAINED AND PLANS ARE
GIVEN FOR BETTERING
CONDITIONS.
Insists That the State's Insane Should

Election Expense.
To the Democratic Voters of Loulsi
ana:
In an authorized interview, pub
lished May 7, of the present year, in
which I formally announced my can
didacy for governor in the next gen
eral primary, I said: "At the proper
time I will make an unequivocal
statementqf my attitude on all mat
ters which I consider as live issues
in the state of Louisiana."
JOHN T. MICHEL
In my opinion the state campaign
has reached a stage of development
which renders the fulfillment of that
promise necessary. Being a native
of the state and having been' honored
with the confidence and support of
the people in a position of high re
sponsibility during many years, I
shall not contume time and space in
introducing myself, or with generali
tles dealing with abstract principles of
government.
Long experience in one of the de
partments of state government serv
,ed to familiarize me with the prscti
cal side of public administration and
with the defects existing in our meth
ods, and enables me to suggest im
provements required to place Louisi
ana in the front rank of progresstve
and wisely-governed American states.
The popular demand for economy
in the conduct of the government is
reasonable and just. Upon the backs
of the people the burden of govern
ment rests; hence, every expenditure
made should be in response to some
imperative public necessity, and not
for the maintenance of mere tax
eaters who render no returns pro
portionate to the compensation they
receive. It goes without saying that
all profligate expendituresm, whether
for the maintenance of unnecessary
offices, for excessive compensation
or for extravagant appropriations,
should be rsigidly eliminated, and that
the smaller leaks, more apt to be un
detected because of their apparent in
significsan9e, should be stopped.
True economy may be effected by
the following means, among others,
vis:
(A)-Holding down- approiriatlons
well within the limits of the public
revenues.
(B)-Abolishing every useless of
flee.
(C)-Consolldating offcees, commis
sions and boards wherever this can
be done without Impairing the effi
ciency of the public service.
(D)-Reorganising departmen
commissions or boards wherever such
reorganiation may be required or is
practicable, in the Interest of greater
economy and effilciency.
(E)-Compelling the frequent and
accurate accounting to the govern
ment by all public officers charged
with the duty of handling public
'money.
State Taxation.
There is pressing need for vital re
form in our system of assessing and
taxation. Under our antilated
methods the burden of taxation is
unevenly and inadequately distribut
ed, bearing most heavily on those
least able to endure it.
In 1906 a commission was appoint.
ed to consider the assessment and
tax problem and report thereon. The
commissulion formulated a report con
taining much valuable data bearing 2
on the subject of Its inquiry.
The time is propitious to evolve a
plan whereby, without injustice to
ay particular interest, the burden of
taxation shall be distributed more
qquitably and greater discretion be
given to the people in the adminis
tration of their local finances.
I favor the segregation of state and
local taxation, believing, as I do,
that It will conduce to a more just
and fair distribution of the tax bur
diams of the holders of all classes of I
tSkbl property, who are required
rdet the Jaw to uomtribute to the
Srth ·estate ad Its political I
S rg our system of assesmat I
* teka r .rs tUrs, pattans
I favor the appointment of a commas
sdon, to serve without pay, to take up
the work of tax revision where the
commission above referred to left offt
in order that when the general assem
bly acts on this important and neces
sary reform it may have ftll infor
mation and data at its command.
The Income Tax.
I favor toe passage, by the Louisi
ana general assembly, of a joint reso
lution giving unqualified indorsement
to the proposed amendment to the
constitution of the United States, as
enacted and submitted to the states
by congress, authorizing the impo
sition of a federal tax on incomes.
The fear has been expressed in
some quarters that the proposed
amendment, as passed by congress,
may serve to reduce the marketable
value of mady of our nontaxable pub
lic securities, by burdening them with
a federal tax, and force the state to
pay a greater interest on its bonded
indebtedness than it is now charged
with. I do not share this appre
hension.
The fact that a large number of the
Democratic states of the union and
many of the Republican states, have
accepted the income tax amendment,
.s congress passed and submitted it,
indicates that it bears the stamp of
popular approval. The levying of a
federal tax on incomes has long been
recognized as a legitimate source of
public revenue, and its imposition by
congress has only been prevented by
lack of constitutional authority.
I am of the opinion that Louisiana
should at once join the ranks of its
sister Democratic states which have
indorsed the Democratic principle of
an income tax, urged in many expres
sions and enunciated in the last na
tional party platform.
Public Education.
Great progress has been made in
our efforts to place the advantages
of a common school education within
the reach of every child in Louisiana
and to afford vocational, technical
and advanced scientific training to
the youths and young women of the
state who desire to fit themselves
for various lines of human endeavor.
It should be our constant effort to
place the educational institutions of
Louisiana, from the kindergarten to
the university, upon a plane of effi
ciency exceeded by that of no state
in the union.
I am particularly impressed with
the splendid work accomplished by
the agricultural schools in a number
of the parishes, and favor systematic
development of this form of educa
tion. It is of the utmost importance
to the future welfare and prosperity
of the state that the youth of the
agricultural districts should be af
forded an opportunity to obtain tui
tion in scientific farming, in order
that the agricultural wealth of the
state may be fully developed, and
those who follow agricultural pursuits
profit by modern methods of treating
and tilling the soiL.
Dual Office Holding.
I condemn as undemocratic and un
just the holding of more than one of
fice of public trust by any single
Democrat of the state. Dual office
holding has gradually, but surely, be
come a political evil in Louiplana, and
I pledge mysel', if elected, to devote
my earnest and conscientious efforts
to its suppression.
Honest Elections.
The ballot box, aptely termed the
"ark of the covenant" in popular gov
ernment, must be protected with Jeal
ous care and vigilance by a free peo
ple; for in an incorruptible electorate,
and the honest casting, counting and
returning of the ballots lies the safety
of the commonwealth.
American liberty is constructed on
a foundation of enlightened and hon
est government, and the man who
robs another of his vote, or by trick
ery, fraud, connivance or eonasent,
contributes to the corruption of the
electorate, in any manner whatsoever,
aims a deadly blow at society at tho
same time that he violates the statu
tory law.
The Daily Picayune, one of our
great conservators of thought, in its
issue of May l21 last, said editorially:
"It Is the Picayune's demand that the
approaching battle of the ballots shall
mark an epoch in Louisiana's history,
that it shall speak to the world of the
fair and square deal one can expect
when either running for office or vot
ing for it within the confines of this
great Pelican state, that it shall an
nounce that within- Loulslana's do
main every ballot is counted as it is
cast, no matter for whom......"
I heartily subscribe to these senti
ments. There is no crime defined by
statute that has a greater influence
for evil on our system of government
than the corruption of the ballot, in
whatever form it may be committed.
for the reason that it strikes at the
very keystone of government, and
makes of the very term "liberty" It
self a hollow mockery.
To the protection of the electorate
from the influences that make for
fraud, dishonesty and the gimrsntee
to the people of this state of the safe
guarding of those sacred electoral
rights conferred on them by the or
ganic law, I pledge my earnest en
deavors.
Governor and the State Legislature.
The executive and legislative de
partments are coordinate branches
of state government, but in no way
interdependent. Each has its sept
rate duties to perform; one is largely
administrative in character, the other
purely legislative.
1 have always believed in the com
plete separation of these two depart
menta of government, and it will be
my purpose, -if elected, to carry out
that idea in the conduct of the office
of governor. It Is made by law the
4uty of the executive to recommend
to the general assembly the enact
ment of such legislation as, In his
judgment, the public interest de
mands, and he is clothed with consti
tutional authorlty to exercise the
right of veto for the purpose of pre
venting the enactment of pernicious
or unnecessary legislation,
But the executive's control of the
legislative department, if he can be
called, should end there. And I
pledge myself, if eklectetd, not to em
ploy the power with which the people
elothe me to fore, the lpassage or de
feat of legislatloa penling n the eea
eral asembly.
-eir Cenvegtem Lat'
The llaw, hr *k eearsite auA
protection of oysters, fish and game
of the state have been more or less
eiperimental. The general assembly
of 1910 merged the oyster and game
commissions. It is apparent to all'
in touch with conditions in this state
that the operation of this merger bill
has not given satisfaction.
I believe in the conservation of the
fish, oysters and game of this state,
along practical and scientific lines;
however, it is imperative that there
should be a reduction by the present
board of some of its charges and the
number of its employes; that there
should be greater economy in the ad
ministration of its affairs and a more
generous recognition of the principle
of public control.
I am in favor of legislation rele
gating to the constables of the state,
under methods of compensation which
insure their efficiency in the dis
charge of their duties, the functions
of the office of game warden.
Forestration and the protection of
our forests is a problem that is be
ginning to confront the people of this
state as it has the people of every
nation in the world.
I favor constitutional legislation of
such a character as would afford the
opportunity of owners of cut-over
lands to dedicate large stretches Of
forest reserves; such legislation to be
modeled and patterned after the
laws of foreign countries and some of
the advanced states of the union on
this subject, which laws will tend to
encourage and promote the dedica
tiod and setting apart of lands for
forestry and game purposes, and at
the same time, fully protect the state
and its public fisc.
Anti-Lobby Law.
I strongly favor and will urge th'e
passage of a state law to restrict the
practice of lobbying at the state capi
tal during the sessions of the general
assembly, to legitimate uses. Duly
accredited representatives of inter
ests affected by pending legislation
should not be denied an opportunity
to appear before the committees of
either or both branches of the gen
eral assembly and argue for or
against measures then under con
sideration, but I believe a pernicious
system of promiscuous lobbying, such
as has been repeatedly made the sub
ject of well-grounded complaint in
Louisiana, is an unwarranted inter
ference with the functions of the law.
making power, and I am in favor of
its suppression.
The Liquor Traffic.
The principle of local option is
democratic in character, and I am in
favor of its application to the liquor
traffic. In this as in all other pub
lic questions, it is the duty of offi
cers charged with the administration
of the law, to see that the expressed
wishes of the people are carried out
Those sections of the state which
voted, or may vote, for prohibition
are entitled to the protection of the
law in their efforts to suppress the
sale of liquor within prohibitive terri
tory. Strict regulation, as provided
by existing law, should govern those
communities where the local unit has
pronounced for the licensed saloon.
Recent legislation has done much
to improve the saloon situation in
this state. Many abuses have been
corrected, and better conditions pre
Sll In practically every section where
the sale of liquor is licensed by law.
Corrupt Practices Act.
A law compellitn the puolication
by all candidates for public office in
Louisiana, senatorial, congressional,
state, district, parish and municipal,
of their campaign expenses, would, in
my opinion, constitute wise legisla
tion, and I will recommend its enact
ment if elected.
* The law referred to should be so
enacted as to embrace all primary
nominations as well as regular elec
tions, and so drafted as to include
campaign expenses both before and
after the primary, publication of these
campaign expenses to be made at
stated intervals before the election.
I would urge as the state central
committee has the power at the time
it orders the primary for state offi
cers, etc., to adopt regulations gov
erning candidates In the primary elec
tion, a resolutlon be adopted requir
ing each and every candidate who
enters said primary for United States
senator and state officers, to publish,
under oath, at stated intervals before
said primary election, the source of
all campaign subscriptions and an
itemized statement of all disburse
ments.
Caring for the insane.
The task of providing properly con
strncted and equipped and well-con
ducted Institutions for the care-of the 1
state's insane is a sacred duty of the 1
commonwealth. These helpless and
unfortunate wards of the people ap.
peal with pecular force to the sympa
thy of those chargaed with the duty
of administering public affairs. Two 1
state asylums for the care and main
tenance of the indigent insane have
been providled
Great as asnu been the provision
made for these dependents, however,
it falls far short of requirements, ara 1
the spectacle of insane men and
women languishing in prison cells,
ill-suted to their treatment or their
needs, is unfortunately, by no means
a rare one. The city of New Orleans
has met the situation with the con
struction of a properly equipped and I
well-constructed hospital for the de- I
tention of its indigent insane, but a
number of parishes are not in a po
sition financially to emulate the city's
example.
I strongly favor providing such
additional facilitiers' at Jackson and
Pineville as are needed to meet the i
pressing and growing demand for c
larger provision for the state's insane.
It is a blot on the fair name of the
state that any man, woman or child,
afflicted with a mental disorder, cur
able or incurable, should be forced
to languish in a prison cell beranse
the state failed to make ample pro
vision for his or her maintenance and
care.
Honoring Confederate Veterans.
The gallant men who responded to t
the call of the State in the hour of I
peril and who by their fortitude and a
h~mns gave to m4akad a new .x
ample of manaD chivalry, have stab
"ahed a laim ean oar grstitnu ind t

Capital and Labor.
The right of labor to organlse for
its protection and advancement is
as inalienable as the right of capital
to combine its interests. within tha
law, for the same purpose. -Equal
rights to all and special privileges to
none is a fundamental prnaciple of
our democratic government, and I am
in favor of applying it, with the strict.
est impartiality, to the treatment of
capital and labor in the passage and
enforcement of laws governing these
two interests.
The toilers of civilzation are the
builders of the world, and they have
a just claim to the protection of the
law in the formulation and exocution
of legitimate plans for the betterment
of their condition. Measures intend
ed to minimize personal danger to
those engaged in hazardous occupa
tions, or which aim to improve work
ing conditions in any particular line
of industry, should receive, when pre
sented, the earnest consideration of
those officials charged with the duty
of framing our laws.
Immigration and Land Reclamation.
Although Louisiana is perhaps
richer in agricultural resources than
any other state in the union, there re
main large areas of virgin lands
which are capable of being converted
into prosperous homes for many
thousands of industrious farmers. The
work of reclaiming low-lying lands,
which has been successfully carried
on during the past few years, is
fraught with tremendous importance,
adding, as it is even tiow doing, un
told thousands to permanent values
and wealth of the state.
These reclaimed lands, being fan
ned constantly by the salt breezes of
the gulf, and being located ., the
most salubrious and healthful section
of this continent, produce a continu
ous and great variety of crops. Many
Western farmers have already made
themselves homes in this sectiori, and
a strong effort should be made to di
vert in this direction the stream of
immigration now flowing from the
Northwestern states and Canada.
Reclamation and the peopling of
every section of our state with hon
est, industrious white American farm
ers should engage the earnest efforts
of the state administration.
Charity Hospitals.
The state maintains, for the benefit
of suffering humanity, two charity
hospitals, one at New Orleans and
one at Shreveport. By reason of the
fact that it is situated in a more
populous community, and the scope
of its activity is, necessarily, greater,
the Charity hospital of New Orleans
commands a rger share of public
attention tlmn the institution at
Shreveport.
The North Louisiana hospital is
capably administered, and is perform
ing a splendid work, and it is a pleas
ure to testify to, its great importance
in the world of humane philanthropy.
The New Orleans Charity hospital
occupies a commanding place as an
institution to which suffering men,
women and children may turn for re
lief from the ills that beset them. Its
nursing, clinical, medical and surgi
cal corps rival those of any American
community. The main hospital, clin
lcs and children's hospital go to make
up an institution of which tae state
may well be proud.
The constantly increasing demand
upon its resources and accommoda
tlons has created the necessity for
expansion, and I favor proper legisla
tion to meet the urgent needs of the
charity hospital at New Orleans in
the way of facilities for the treatment
of the sick and wounded. The public
alimony could not be more advanta
genouly expended than in providing
such facilities as the pressing re
quirements of the institution demand.
The administration of the affairs
of this great institution, in all its de
partments, has commanded the admi
ration of the people of the state and
of the Unioa, and in my opinion
should be maintained in Its present
organisation.
Executlve Patronage.
Under existing laws the executive is
charged with the duty of filling va
cancies in a number of minor parish
offices. These officers are close to
the people they serve, who can fill
the vacancies occurring in their ranks
more intelligently than can the gov
ernor. I shal advocate the return of
this power to the people, to whom it
rightfully belongs, elections to fill
such vacancies to be called by, re
turns made to, and commissions is
sued by, the respective parish boards
of supervisors.
Public Printlng.
Under the incumbent administra
tion the cost of ppblic pzlnting has
been appreciably reduced. As a
further step in the direction of eaon
omy, increased efficiency and local:
control, I suggest the laws be amend
ed so as to require the certifieation
by the secretary of state to tho re
spective boards of supervisors oi
elections throughbeOt the state of
Louislana of the names of all candi
dates for all offices, congressional,
state,.district, etc., and. that the prin
ting of the offictal ballots and,fttrn
ishing of the necessary election sup
plies be done by said boards, through I
the parish printer, at thd expense of
the parish l~ which the election is
held.
At the thme of the passage t the
present laws on this subject many
parishes were without printing offi
ces. Now they all have them, and the
change suggested will relieve the
state of considerable expense each
year, conduce to greater accuracy
and promptness in the printing and
distribution of the ballots and sup
plies, and encourage the development
kf the printing ndustry ain the parf
ishes.
Maintenanc of Levees.
.By heroic sacrifice, the people in
the riparian districts of Loulsiana
have constructed and maintained a
syctem of levees along the Missal
alppi river and its tributaries which
finds no counterpart elsewh..e.
It is but just that the federal pov
ernment should relieve the peop'e of
the lower valley from the burden of
proteeting their property from de
struction by the waters of the great
national river.

The charaeter sad quality of th4
roads ot a state or mstis are S1
est indies of their dvlbsatien am
prosperity. The absence of goo
roads throughout the state oft Loual
ana in the past has been the -m
dominant factor in holding back he
advanceent. The present body o
road laws existing in this state, is, it
my opinion. excellent sad well cel
culated to accomplish the objects de
sired.
I favor the utilizing of these laws
to the full extent of the resources o
the state and parishes, and I will use
all the power of the executive office
to advance this great cause.
Recognition of Women.
The mothers of the state have a
peculiarly vital interest in the propel
education of their children. Upon
them the burden of rearing our fu
ture citisens falls with the greates
force, and the work of preparing
them to meet successfully the vary
ing fortunes of life is to the mothen
the highest and holiest privilege. I
heartily indorse the suggestion tt
amend the organic law so as to ren
der women eligible for service as di
rectors on boards of education
throughout Louisiana.
Other subjects may be presented
from time to time during the can
vass, and I shall attempt to meet m
fellow-Democrats in every parish of
the state and discuss the measure
in which they may feel Interested.
If loyalty to the principles and
teachings of Democracy; it a faith.
ful devotion to duty, publie sad pr
vate; if wide experience in the pub
lic service, may be esteemed as as
sets of value and pledges of future
fidelity, I pffgt these to the considera
tion of my fellow-citsens of Louisi
ana in extenuation of my temerity in
soliciting their generous support for
the highest office within their gift.
I am a candidate for governor on
my record, my merits and my plat
form. I am soliciting this exalted
public office as a native citizen of
Louisnian and a Democrat, and I
would be grateful for the confidence
and support of all my Democratic
fellow-citizens.
