DEEPLY INTERESTED IN HIS
SUCCESS.

Without question of a doubt
one of the most highly priced let
ters that has been sent to the
headquarters of Governor San
ders during the present campaign
is the one received on Monday
last from that noble little lady,
Miss Sophie Wright, who is more
widely known than any other
woman in the State, or We may
saw in the South. Miss Wright
besides being at the head Of the
Home Institute, an institution for
the education of girls in New Or
leans, was the originator of the
free night school in New Orleans
where thousands of young men
and boys have been educated.
Regarding her inability to attend
the grand ovation that was given
Gov. Sanders here on Sept. Is,
she says:
81 was sorry not to be with you last
Saturday, but had just returned to
the city and was not strong enough to
travel, but was bitterly disappointed.
| pray daily for your success. and
read with interest and admiration all
that you say.
IF at any time you need m2 or if
can serve your cause in the slightest
why | am at your service. | follow
| YOU with eagerness. and am praying
| for your success.
my heavy work has told on me,
and do not go out very much. so you
must come and see me. but remember
that am always praying that you may
| be victOriOuS.'

MR.. SANDERS AT FRANKLIN.

With possibly the exception of
few meetings held in the city of
New Orleans, the ovation given
Hon. j. Y. Sanders at Franklin,
Saturday in his home parish OF st.
Mary, was by far the largest
political mass meeting ever held
in the state Of Louisiana.
This meeting, held in Franklin,
attracted wide attention for a
number of reasons, and was
watched with much interest by not
only the Sanders contingent, but
the Wilkinson following as we'll.
The meeting was watched by the
Sanders element with the hope of
either confirming or refuting the
claims that Mr.. Sanders could not
and would not be able to overcome
tthe opposition to his candidacy in
his home parish; the meeting was
watched by Wilkinson supporters
in an effort to determine just how
far their claims of strength in St.
Mary parish and Southern Louis
lana had been overestimated.
The result of the Franklin meet
ing is that both sides now have
the satisfaction of knowing how
st. Mary parish stands, and it is
unlikely that we shall hear any
further wild and unfounded state
ments concerning how Mr.. San
ders' home parish will vote in the
coming election.
The Franklin meeting was a
demonstration that has set at rest
the slanderous inuendos that have
been slyly and sneakingly inject
ed into this campaign concerning
the private life of Mr.. Sanders.
The circulators of these anonys-
nous and libelous statements have
quietly smiled and said: swat
until he goes before those who
know him best. and you will see
, that ne is repudiated." The result
of the Franklin meeting shows
that it is not Mr.. Sanders who has
been repudiated, but his unknown
accusers, and they have been re-
pudiated not only by the voters of
st. Mary parish and Southwest
Louisiana, but also by the fair
wives, daughters and mothers OF
families that represent the culture
and refinement of that God-gifted
part of the state.
In conclusion let us say that this
meeting at Franklin brought out
one more strong point which
the level-headed element of the
Wilkinson following should not
anG probably will not-fail to
grasp, and that is. if they hope to
accomplish Mr.. Sanders defeat,
they will pick some other part OF
the state in which to make their
fight.-Lake Charles Daily Press.

A HORRIBLE CRIME.

On Of the most horrible crimes
that has even been committed IN
this parish occurred on last wed
nesday in the rear Of Bellevlew
plantation, when Mr.. and Mrs.
Chas. Seifreith were murdered at
their home by some unknown
parties. The deed must nave
evidently been committed early IN
the night, as Mrs. Seifreith was
making bread when she was shot
at through a window nearly tear
ing her arm of. Mr.. Selfrelth,
who had retired early was awaken
bv the shot, and in his attempt to
get out OF bed was shot at through
a window and his left side nearly
torn off by gun shot which was
loaded with old slugs, he was also
shot in the eye, under the cnln
and in the abdomen with pistol
bullets. Mrs. Seifreith who about
his time had made her escape
from the house, and wrapping he1
manglcd arm in her apron started
towards the plantation to give the
alarm, when from the loss OF
blood fell about an acre from the
house where one of the assasslns
approached her and placing a
oun to her head fired itand nearly
severing it from the BODY.
The circumstances which sur
rounds the crime leads US to
believe that the deed must nave
been committed by more than one
person, as the shot which was re-
ceived by Mrs. Seifreith in the arm
was inflicted with bird shot, while
the one Mr.. Seifreith received in
the left side was with old slugs,
and the ones in the eye, abdomen
and chin were inflicted with pis-
toll balls. If the act was COM
mi,ted by only one person, he
must have been armed with two
or more weapons.
There is no doubt that the crime
was committed for the purpose Of
robbery, as Mr.. Seifreith was q
Woodworking man and spent very
little of his earnings outside of his
family expenses, and the muir
derers must have known this be-
cause after the killing the house
was looted, but the general sup.
position is that the assassins die
not recover any booty for thei1
dafsardIy crime, for the day afte1

question raised at that time:

Observation-Disclosures RALLY.

The meeting at New Iberia held
Wednesday has been named a
Broussard- Wilkinson Rally. This
name was not given by political
opponents, nor was it given in
derision or in ridicule. 1t is the
the name that was solemnly and
officially announced by the Will
kinson headquarters themselves.
Realizing the weakness of their
candidate they have hyphenated
his name with that of Bob Brous-
sard, trusting that Broussard's
popularity would serve as a cloak;
and that it would act as a draw
ing card. In hyphenating they
have even gone so far as to put
Broussard's name first-the sup
porter overshadows his candi-
date. In an attempt to lead the
voter to Colonel Wilkinson, not
because he is best fitted for the
position, but because Broussard
is supporting him. and thus do
these valiant defenders of the pri-
mary law carry out the spirit of it..
What is Broussard running for?
Why should his name be hyphen-
ated with Wilkinson? Is Wilkin-
son any more fit to be governor
because Bob Eroussard is sup
porting him? Does Broussard's
support elevate him, and will it
make him consistent, keep him
from trimming and stop him from
losing his temper and indulging
in personal abuse? Why not ar
range it so that Broussard could
run for Governor, and if he won
turn it over to the "Colonel." Is
the "Colonel" going all over the
State and hyphenating his name
in the second place with local
supporter in each section, in order
to mislead the voter and hide his
own infirmities and shortcomings?
This method of campaigning
would then do away with the
necessity of his having platform
" an ISSUE. He can run on the
popularity of his principal sup
porters. We have few hophen-
ated rallies we would like to sug-
gest to the Colonel" also the
subject for discussion at these
rallies:
. Caddo, Blanchard Wilkinson
Rally-"The Governor of Louis
lana should be allowed to dictate
his successor"
Ouachita: Stubs Wilkinson
Rally-"Railroads are above the
law.
Rapides: Brakeman Wilkinson
Rally-"Young men should be
taught their place and not allowed
to run for Office"
Plaquemines: District Attorney
Jim Wilkinson-T. S. Wilkinson
Rally-"Slot machines, poor
schools and a low liquor license
are the most powerful agents in
elevating the morals of people,"
There are a good many parishes
where the "Colonel" would be
unable to hold the hyphenated
meetings, as he would have no.
BODY to hyphenate With, but IN
the city of New Orleans we would
suggest the following:
Farrar Wilkinson Rally
TRUSTS, corporations and rail-
roads must not be disturbed in
their race for wealth."
Dufour-L eake- Wilkinson Rally
