IT. .. Adams.

3 The Ruston Callgraph, a lottery
paper of most decided views, pays
the following tribute to the worth
of Hon. T. S. Adams, on hearing
that he was announced as a candi.
date for Governor:
Upright and conscientious, Of un-
sullied record, brainy, executive and
energetic, and the chief representa-.
tive of a numerous and worthy class
of Democratic citizens, he stands far
in advance of nominations already
made, and will do honor to our
State and people should the high
trust be bestowed upon him.
Mr.. Adams course as head and
front of the Farmers Union in our
State has been marked with justice
and prudence, and his wise counse,s
and firm restraint have contributed
in a large measure to the present
organization and power Of the
Farmers Union. For To say it is
without power or force of purpose
would be stating an a~bsardity, com.
posing as it does a large proportion
of our citizens, united by ~fraternal
ties and directed as a unit in the
contamination of purpose. Mr..
Adams has labored hard to keep his
order 10 our State free from false
screed and schism, and how well he
has succeeded let the record of his
actions in the late Congressional
contests in the Fourth and Fifth dis
tricts show, when he suppressed dis.
sension and upheld the success of
the Democratic party, when a few
malcontents, stimulated by willy
politicians, sought to use the order
in a destructive triangle. Louisiana
is Democratic, and in the promulga.
ton Of these principles oil frater-
nifty is forgotten for the time in the
grand J~effersonian brotherhood.
Mr.. Adams is a Democrat, able and
worthy, and with the unanimous en-.
dorsement of the bone and sinew Of
our State deserves serious consider
alton at the hands Of Louisiana
Democrats.

Company should, and are herby solic-
tied to, organize into nti-lottery clubs
or leagues in their respective wards.

GEN. w. T. SHERMAN died at his
home in New York city on the 14th.
Although 70 years old the General
enjoyed good general health and
his death was as unexpected as it
was sudden. General Sherman was
educated at the Military Academy
at West Point, graduating in 1910.
He served in the Florida and Mex
lean wars, and was one of the most
prominent of the leaders on the
Union side in our late civil war,
and was a man of undoubted mill
tary ability and very popular with
the army. Taking little or no part
in politics, he was less widely known
than his famous brother, John Sher-

ONLY a few years ago Bismarck
ruled Germany and her King with
an authority which his great popu-
larity made absolute. The Iron
Chancellor was on the lips Of every
mouth in Faderland and elsewhere,
and he was as much the fetch of
the German people as a Chinese
Emperor is of the Chinese. It is
doubtful whether any other man in
the worlds history, not soldier,
was ever so much adored by his
countrymen. But these things are
now of the past, and Bismarck, an
idol no longer, is defendant before
