Keep Cool.

In view of the prevailing hot
weather a little advice in regard
to keeping cool, given by prom
inent physician in New Orleans
may not be amiss. The doctor
said: "Nervous and cxcitablc
people suffer most from the heat,
consequently unnecessary excite
ment or worry is not compatible
with keeping cool. Therefore my
first piece of advice is take every
thing easy. Don't let the triviali-
ties of life worry you, because you
won't know the difference in
twenty years from now. Then,
again, abstain from drinking large
quantities of ice water. Not only
will this practice injure your con-
stitution, but by so doing you ac-
tually heap Goals on the fire you
arc attempting to quench. Fire.
quent small swallows of ice water
will do no harm and at the same
time will accomplish the desired
result. If you feel warm, immerse
your hands and wrists in cold wa
ter. Few people know this little
scheme for cooling off u heated
system. Let the cold water COW
er the pulse and you will find the
results most beneficial.

Political Conventions Under the
New Constitution. !

Possibly the greatest edks tm-
braced in the new CGent, t'1ion is
embodied in Il few il,he sent look
ing words in articlr> 200, which
are as follows: "&nd in all po-
litical conventioas in this State
the apportionment of representa-
ton sheteAe-on the basis of pop
ulat; n. -
The constitution DISTINGUISHES
ohe negro and then says that he is
entitled Misrepresentation in all
"political Conventions which
means in every Democratic NOM
mating convention. The injus-
tice of this is apparent. To show
the incqualityA and iniquity of
such a requirement we will COM
pare the parishes of Bossier and
DcSoto. They are entitled to
delegates each in q Democratic
nominating convention, yet Bos-
sicr's white population is 4lO2,
while DeSeto's S is 663S, according
to the last census. This means
that Bossier will have about 800
voters entitled to registration un-
der the new Constitution, while
DcSoto will have 1900. In other
words, if Bossier, under the new
Constitution, is entitled to s del
egates in Il nominating conven-
ton, DeSota ought to be entitled
13. .
But Bossier makes up in ne
groes what she lacks in whites. 1t
has 1922. So the new Constitu-
ton deprives the negro of the
right to vote in the general elcc-
ton, but gives them the repre-
sentation in every Democratic
convention held in the State.
We cannot believe the white
Democrats of the State will long
submit to such an outrage, and
in the interest of fairness. good
government and pure elections
we will hail with delight the first
movement set on foot to wipe
this Infamous sentence out of the
Constitution and to put in place
thereof one providing for repre-
sentation in all political coven-
tione based upon the total regis
tered vote of each parish. Either
we must make this change or par
ty nominations will soon become
a thing of the past.-Manstield

Confederate Bonds.

An opinion was rendered in the
United States Supreme Court re-
Gently in the case of Marianne j.
Baldy vs.. John II. Hunter, ad-
ministrator, affirming the validity
of the investments in COnfede-
rate bonds during the Civil war.
Ia rendering the opinion of the
Court, Justice Harlan said: The
transactions between persons ac-
tually residing within thc terrific
ry dominated by the soversf1>ent
of the Confederate States were
not invalid for the reason only
that they occurred under the laws
of that government or Of any To-
cal government recognizing its
authority. The preservation of
order, the maintenance of peace
relations, the prosecution of
crimes, the protection of proper
ty, the enforcement of contracts,
the celebration Of marriages, the
settlement of estates, the trans
fer and descent Of property and
similar or kindred subjects were
during the war under the control
of local governments constituting
the so-called Confederate States.
What occurred or what was done
in respect of such matters under
the authority of the laws of these
local de facto governments should
not be disregarded or held invalid
merely because the governments
were organized in hostility to the
Union established by the national
constitution, because the exist
ence of the war did not relieve
those within the insurrectionary
lines from the necessity of civil
obedience or destroy the bonds of
society.
The case came to this Court on
a writ of error from the Supreme
Court of Georgia and the opinion
of that Court was affirmed.

Newspapers have very generally
decided that communications ad-

laudatory articles are objects of
legitimate revenue. There is no

Geronimo, the most noted In
dian in America, chief of the Apa-
ches, is 80 years old. He is as
straight as an arrow and his eye
is piercing and keen. When at
the post at Fort Sill he plays
monte, but when he can get per-

his time is spent in hunting, of
of which he is very fond.
