We hereby extend our sincere
thanks to the Louisiana Appeal
Sugar Planter, Webster Signal, Bat

ley Signal, and New Orleans States
for their complimentary personal
mention of us in our candidacy. and
feel complimented, with full sppre-
citation, that these brethren of the
press would not allow their political
faith to dwarf their personal feeling
sufficiently to induce them to utter a
word of unkiudness during the cam
palgn.
To the Shreveport Times, Bossier
Banner, Natchitoches Enterprise,
Theoda Independent, Sabine Banner,
Lecompte Messenger and Louisiana
Democrat, those which opposed Us
outright. and those who did not, we
extend our profound gratitude for
their silence on the one part and fir O.
dom fro N personal abuse on the other
during the late struggle for Congress
sional honors.
To the Montgomery Mail, VIM

zette our hearts 90 out in profound
appreciation for their generous,
grand fight for our success in the late
congressional race, and we hope the
day may come when The PROGRESS
will be able to reciprocate with the
full force of its assistance. Nor shall
we forget the generous assistance
rendered by the Ruston Progressive
Age and Alliance Forum, which did
what they could in our interest.
To the Shreveport Caucasian, Rus
t Leader, Democrat Journal and
Boyce Enterprise, which were 50 un-
g .nerous, uncharitable and prolific in
their unkind remarks about US per-
s0nally, we have no word of censure.
II they can draw pleasure from such
source, enjoy sucn unholy aud I'M
warranted pastime, we would not say
word, or interpose single obstacle
between them and their pleasure, and
sincerely hope they enjoyed their
fancy full measured.

Do You Want a Kitten2

half of 2-weeks-old kittens in the

members Of the family and taken in

kittens are lively little fellows of all
colors and sexes, If any boy or girl

been named Hicks, because it was
too slow in getting to the milk pan

If the Caucasian furnished the milk
we will venture that it was SO well
watered that the lively kitten didn't
find enough ndtriment in it to repay
him for the exertion necessary to
reach the pan, and we feel assured
that the gray and white one knew it
too, and didn't try to get there.

well, the long and short Of it was
we could get nothing sent that wasn't
