A LAw-BREAkER.

IIc was very wicked man.
Blue laws did not respect e.
But nearly every one of them,
This criminal bold wrecked.
The peace and welfare of tho state
lie did impcril much,
BY getting shaved on Sunday when
lie felt he needed such.
~
Good citizens endangered were
When he would not forbear.
AT times when blue laws did decree
lie should not cut his hair.
He threatened ruin OF all law
And order in a tricc,
When In the hottest summer days
lIc bought his Sunday ice.
Had he lived In the good old times
When blue laws all obcycd
There Is no telling what he'd do,
And never be afraid.
Perhaps he'd gone to church at morn,
Then with rebellion rife. 'a
AT these good laws. come right
straight home,
Apd gone and Kicked his wife.

Political Gossip.

Four months ago Mr.. Sanders
doomed far ahead of all others in
the gubernatorial contest through
out the State. Not so now; his
candidacy is on the backward slide.
| predict that Jastremski and Will
kinson will be the men to measure
strength in second primary; in
other words. figure that Mr.. San
ders will be eliminated from the
second primary, for one is sure to
follow unless there are radical
changes IN the present situation.
The followers of Congressman
Broussard are divided between
Jastremski and Wilkinson; Colonel
Wilkinson was supporter Of JAS
tremski in the last gubernatorial
fight; you will notice that in his
Lake Providence speech, Colonel
Wilkinson said he was proud of
the fact that he had supported the
General, and credited him with re-
form moves in Louisiana politics.
There is three cornered contest
in Acadia parish. Calcasieu is
likely to give a small majority to
Jastremski.
In the city the leaders are afraid
to come forward and declare them
selves; they realize that Jastrem-
ski and Wilkinson are both beut
on smashing machine politics
throughout the State, and the tri-
umph of either of these two candi-
dates for governor means the death
knell of ward bossism in New Or
leans. The bosses, realizing their
predicament, are not going to align
themselves openly with Mr.. Sand
ers, for if they do, hue and cry
all over the parishes will go uI
against machine methods.
| Yes, its going to be pretty fight
it will be the triumph of the peo
pie at the primary over the fonda
system made possible by the enor.

Fay.,rs Wilkinson.

Hon. Theodore S. Wilkinson
formally launched his campaign
for Governor at Alexandria when
he addressed large audience at
the Opera House at that place.
He said that he wore the collar of
no man or set of men; was not the
candidate of any Governor or
United States Senator. On what
may be termed the moral issues,
Mr.. Wilkinson's platform will meet
the appreciation of the better class
of people more fully than that OF
any other candidate. He would
regulate and control horse racing
in New Orleans, favors high license
and local option for. the liquor
traffic and is opposed to gambling
Wilkinson is an able man, a clean
man, a man of independence and
courage, broadminded and pro.
gressive and has always been Oh
the right side of public questions
He is one of those men who have
the faculty of doing things. d.
is not a mere dreamer or theorizer
but man who accomplishes re
suits. Wr. Wilkinson will be I
very formidable candidate for Gov
ernor. As we see it now, the con
test will be between Wilkinson ant
Sanders with the chances in favo
of the former.-Guardian Journal

The river at Colfux has raised fully
three feet since this time last week,
and ut points in ward six moth OF

banks. The rise on yesterday was
about one inch, and it will probably
rise two or three inches more before
it begins to fall. The river was ex-
pected to reach stand at Shreve-
port ON yesterday, so the crisis OF
overflow is about at its highest, and
we can look for it to begin to fall in
the next three or four days.

Open Issues are Plentiful.

The New Orleans Daily States,
Shreveport Times, Monroe Star,

deprecating mysterious hints OF
scandal about one or more OF the

and as yet we have to see where
any of them have scandalized any
body. Is it that these city breth-
rem know something pretty salty
that they desire to be kept quiet?
If SO, their stirring the mystery IN
