1t Will Never Win.


Some smart politician has
passed the word around through
the Jastremski crowd, all over
the State, to. claim everything
and get up a hurrah on all sub
iects and all occasions. The
''drummer' and the '1abOring
man" have grown to be regular
press correspondents. All their
writings have the same jingle.
They bear precisely the same
ear marks. They never chirp
except to circulate some terrible
"whopper" and they are parti-
cular to generalize and always
show their sincerity by signing
a fictitious name. This is con-
venient, to say the least of it, for
it gives the opposition press bu-
reau the chance to work over
time.
They have Caddo "sewed up"
Bossier is in the bag, Pointe
Coupee, East and West Baton
Rouge. all the Florida parishes,
Calcasieu, Assumption, Ascen
sion and every other parish that
has any considerable vote. They
now have Wilkinson county,
Mississippi and Turkey county,
Arkansas, and two large counties
in Texas, absolutely solid and
sure. 1t is really absurd and
disgusting. 1t has grown so
systematic as to disclose the fact
that the order canes from head
quarters, ''claim everything"
'beat the bushes,' yell and
holler," "useyour lungs, - swell
the figures, never mind the
facts' It was started with the
emphatic declaration, Il will
win this election
This was the key note and it
has been played on the same
string without ceasing. 1t will
affect neither any body nor any
thing. The people are with
Judge Blanchard. They know
he will give oneYof the cleanest,
finest, grandest administrations
in the history Of the State. The
little dab Of true democrats,
backed and supported by the
horde of disgruntled and de-
feated ex-Office holders, popul-
lists, independents and republi-
cans, cannot. dictate to nor
dominate the democratic party
in Louisiana.

O,VENTION FOR RELIGIOUS
EDUCATION HELD AT CHICAGO.
nousseline.

Never in our country has there met
a convention with nobler and higher
aims"
These words of President James B. An
gell opened the Convention for Religious
Education, Feb 10, at Chicago. As he
spoke he faced an audience OF over 1000
in the great Auditorium.
Decidedly different had been the i'm
preston regarding the convention In
some quarters. IL had been asserted
that the movement was due simply TO the
pique OF few men over the action of
the lost International Sunday School Con-
vention. Others asserted that II was en-
gineered by higher critics"
But the attendance of 400 leaders In
church and school circles from all over
the country confirmed President Angels
estimate. Such men would not leave
their work In the midst OF the busiest
season TO crafty personal feelings or to
promote any theological party. Nor
were those who gathered fit candidates
for the Restless club" of which one
speaker told. whose motto was, ANY
where, but where we are. They came,
as the opening prayer expressed IL. with
the sense OF a great need in their heart.
Nor was this need unsatished. "What
grand session. 'IniS Is the greatest re-
ligious convention that ever met In this
country" Such were some of the COM
ments overheard among the delegates.
Only two Rhode Island delegates were
In attendance, Rev. Gregory ID. Wolcott,
assistant pastor of the Central Congrega-
tional church OF Providence, who served
on the committee on enrolment, and the
writer.
The main thoughts of the many strong
addresses were as follows; Human life
cannot be divided into water-tight COM
partments. Hence. education must en-
brace the whole man. Religion is as
| natural TO the child as any other faculty.
! Education must develop every faculty.
| Therefore education must include reli-
| gion: nay. more. all education must be in
tha-broad, neR-seetarian sense--religous
| and moral. To promote this conception
| and its application to education through
| home. public school and Sunday school. Is
| the purpose OF the new organization.
There was also general agreement upon
! three main principles OF method. FIRST,
religious and general education must be
| co-ordnated. Second. the best modern
| principles OF psychology and pedagogy
| must be applied To the work OF the sun
| day school. Third, the Bible, as inter
| the only and the ideal text book OF re-
| ligion. Not learning. but life Is Its end {:
