Mr.. A. v. Carter has been re-
appointed returning officer Of
Natchisoches parish. Returning
Officer Carter recently went be-
fore the police jury Of his parish
and declared that he would not
give the regular Democratic ticket
representation in the appointment

COL. YOUNG VS.. DON CAT
FIERY.

Col. John S. Young says that he
interprets the meaning Of the words
ito abide BY and sustain" to mean
that the voter who votes at the pri-
mary election "agrees to vote for
the ticket nominated at the cleo
taon, Il there is any opposing ticket
in the field at the final election ia
April"
Don Caffery says: ''Now, my
construction Of that pledge is this !:
that while you agree that you will
abide BY and sustain the result Of
the primary election, it forces no
man agAinst his conscience to vote
Tor either one or the other Of these
candidates" At the general election
In April.
Col. Young is . Foster member
and Chairman Of the Committee Of
Seven, and was in favor Of the ad-
justment for the safety Of the
Democratic party. Mr.. Ca3ery is
. strong partisan Of the Statehouse
Ring, and Is willing to ruin his
party unless It surreuders to his
dictates and does his bidding.
The above statement made by
Mr.. Canery in . recent speech in
New Orleans was the occasion Of
the following correspondence be-
tween the Chairman OF the Demo
cratic Executive Committee and
the Chairman Of the Compromise
