SPEAK AGAIN, MR.. SNYDER.

In an editorial, under the head quoted
the Monroe News says:
Some months ago ex-Lieut. Governor
Robert Snyder wrote a strong article
dealing deliberately with the patronage
handled by Louisiana governors, setting
forth the evils of this abundance of pat
ronage and advocating curtailment of it
The article was read and this part
heartily endorsed by the masses and
many leaders of the party. The ex-le,l-
tenant governor also in the same article
said something about white primaries
but failed to recommend what is needed
He recommended state convention, the
delegates to which shall be selected by
white Democratic primaries. . -.
Yes, it is in order for Mr. Snyder to
speak again, and when he speaks again
he should say: Il am in favor of white
primaries for the election of delegates to
a state nominating convention because
this would be somewhat concession to
the people and would be a direct help
to me because in my parish and the par
ishes like mine the Democrats or white
people are in hopeless minority; few
hundred against thousands of negroes
who figure in the count of population
and the basis of delegations to con-
vention. II the nominations were made
by primary elections at which only
Democrats could vote, | fancy | would
scarcely rally eorporars guard to my
support My strength lies in the popu-
1ation basis. which includes the negro
who is disqualified from all participation
in Democratic political affairs, consti-
tutes the population" -..-@
In speaking again he would explain
that delegates to the Democratic conven-
ton, on the vote of the population with
the disqualified aggregated therein, sell
ected by white Democratic primaries,
fill the bill to his notion and give him
a grab in the convention where cut and
dried program may be unhxed.
Mr.. Snyder is, as are the other gentle
men who are aspiring for of6ce-who
are wishing to be struck by political
lightning. but Mr.. Snyder, in speaking
again, as other politicians should,

must not forget that all the people may
be fooled sometimes, but they are no.
idiots when they are called to figure the
difference between a convention of dele
gates elected on tn basis of population
and primary nomination direct by the
Democrats who vote, and whose votes
are not neutralized in a convention
where the majority of representatives
may be from the parishes in which the
disqualified predominant, but figure in
the basis of the population.
What the Democrats who vote want
is a square deal, and they propose to
have it.

BOHNSTADT WILL PLAY
IN ALL BASKETBALL GAMES.
He VIII Graduate in January, but
Will Not Receive Diploma Until
June-Says He Is Eligible.

President Louis Bohnstadt, of the Manual
Training High School Athletic Association,
announced last night that the sum of s724
was cleared for each of the contesting
teams in the Thanksgiving day football
game at Washington Park. The treasury
of the two schools is now in better shape
than it has been for a number of years and
the athletes of the two schools are jubilant.
Bohnstadt, who is also captain of the
Manual Training High School basketball
team, stated that the reports that he would
not be allowed to play against Shortridge
in the basketball games because of his
graduating In January were without the
least foundation. Captain Bohnstadt said:
1.-The report that 1 will not be allowed to
play in the games against the Shortridge
team in the City Basketball League are
erroneous. The agreement drawn up be-
tween the two schools states that those who
have received their diplomas shall not con-
test in any games of any sort. Spohr Did
die and myself will graduate in January but
will not receive our diplomas until June
and for this reason We will not be barred
from playing.
Part of the S724 in the NJ. T. H. s. treasury
will be expended for new suits for the

have been ordered and will be worn for the
first time against the Charlottesville Bust
ness College team in Charlottesville next
Friday, when the blacksmiths play the first
