SELF HELP.

The main idea of every man
who labors is to make a comfort
able living without rigid economy.
There should be exercised in
farming the same business prin-
ciples that are practiced by
the merchant or other business
man. When the farmer adopts
the same methods by curtailing
useless expenditures for the nee
essary supplies tina; he can raise
at home, such as meat, corn, hav,
fodder, with the products of the
dairy and garden added, he will
never worry about the price of
cotton. nor become tied to the
caprices of the commission or
other merchant.
1T is the advances made, iron
bound with conditions, and the
credit system, that have kept the
cotton raisers tied to the jugger-
naut wheels of necessity that
has crushed out his means of livli-
hood. that has made him mortgage
his farm. and bound him to the
chariot wheels of a self-imposed
serfdom.
He is awakening rapidly from
the thraldom that has heretofore
directed his efforts, and is march
ing stea lilly forward into the light
of manhood independence. Elim-
mate the causes that have hereto
fore dictated his labor and TOM
manded the nature of his products
and he will become in verify, a
free American citizen, proud in
his independent manhood and
monarch of all he surveys. Self
help is the best help. and the man
who is eager. earnest and method
ical in supplying his own wants
first, need have no fear but that
other necessary things will be
added thereunto.

ANARCHISTS.

The anarchist is the exponent
of assassination or murder in order
to overthrow government and
establish social institutions. He
is the foe to peace and order.
With frenzied martyrdom he car
ries out his 6astardly purpose by
the murder of the heads of a gov
ernment or the chief executors OF
the law. He covers his purpose
with secrecy and executes it in
the dark. He is the modern Cain
of civilization, and the worst type
of the fanatic.
The methods Of this class of
human hyenas are in violation of
every principle of this free govern
ment and the deadly enemy OF its
simplicity and the free intercourse
of the rulers with the people.
They are deadly peril to the
peace of society and the lives of
those who freely mingle with each
other without any personal safe
guard. Their presence in America
is a menace and danger 10 its
every institution.
President Roosevelt is eminently
correct in suggesting a rigid en-
actment that shall compel their
deportation and future exclusion
from the shores of America. Free
dom does not mean license to kill
and destroy by secret methods.
1t is not requisite of the insti-
tutions of this country to establish
an espionage and secret detective
force to safeguard the persons of
officials from murderous assault.
Public clamor and public indig-
nation against this class Of foreign
assassins is most pronounced for
their exclusion. The lawmakers
of the land will perform a most
sacred public duty by the passage
of an enactment that shall rightly
exclude these human tigers from
the shores of this country.

WINFIELD BANKS.

For sometime past there has
been negotiations on foot in re-
gard to a change in the presidency
of the VIM Parish Bank. which
was consummated last week but
the entire details were completed
after our forms were made up for
the last weeks edition. MIR. NJ.
NJ. Fisher, who has been the pres
ident of the VIM Parish Bank
since it opened for business. found
that he had to devote too much of
his time to the bank, thereby
entailing loss in his other inter-
ests, on Red River and Jena. His
interest was bought by Mr.. j. s..
Hunt, who was elected President
by the directors ut a meeting held
on the resignation of Mr.. Fisher.
Mr.. Hunt is young man well
and favorably known to the busl
ness men of this section; has been
enc of the officers and managers
of the Sulphur Timber & Lumber
Co., Winfield Furniture Co.
Winfield Mercantile Co., Winn-
field Electric Light 6 Power CO.,
besides being one of the largest
real estate owners i'm the town.
The business men of this section
regard him as one of the most
progr esslve, at the same time con-
sentative business men in this
community. There is nothing
that will advance the interest of
the town that he il not one of the
first tn lend his energy and purse.
Winfield can well I've proud of
her banking institutions. During
all o. the stringent times no Lu,i-
ness man can say that he has not
received all of the financial aid
that his business justified. With
Mr.. H. 7. Pye at the head of the
B INK of WINFIELD and Mr.. j. S.
Hunt at the helm of the VIM
Parish Bank, we are sure that
Winfield will be able to secure
all of the financial assistance that /
will be necessary to do whatever
business that may come within
our borders.

PLAY AND WORK.

"Whea you play, play hard;
when you work, don't play at all. +"
This is the terse action on which
is based the strenuous life of
President Roosevelt, and 10 which
his success and distinction are
largely attributable. 1t is the
placard that announces the key
to human endeavoI. Whoever
follows it as the guide 10 action
need have no fear OF the rewards
that will compensate its practice.
Whenever young man, is ambiti-
Gus to rise in the scale of useful
ness and distinction, he should
recall this axiom of the President
and direct his efforts in strict
compliance with its teaching. The
results will prove eminently salts
factory. Play hard; work hard
These are the two essential COM
bination that will achieve elevation
in life's vigorous combat.

FORTHCOMING LEGISLATION.

The next pending session OF the
Louisiana Legislature will be one
of the most important in the re-
cent years ofthe State. The wave
of great moral reform that is now
sweeping over the land. md parti-
cularly the Southern States, has
aroused public sentiment and a
widespread demand for enact
ments that will stay the tide of
vice and crime that seems to have
become a veritable epidemic Of
late years. Among the most
potent subjects for legislative
consideration will be race track
gambling. the liquor traffic, con-
solidation of the levee boards.
reduction oftaxation. the payment
or refunding of the State debt and
other complex topics. with numer-
Gus other pressing subjects that
may develop among the masses,
that concern the public welfare.
There is a large element among
the next Legislature who are un-
tried in the consideration oil pub
lie matters. They are the repres-
sntatives of that public demand
that desires a new order of things,
that is clamoring for a release
from some of the ills under which
they have heretofore toiled and
suffered.
The people are demanding they
shall be freed from many of those
abuses which have heretofore
clogged the wheels of governm mt
and such wise aid benefcient
measures shall be adopted as will
accelerate the progress OF the
State. upbuild its prosperity and
add to the general welfare of all
the people.
This Legislature has been chosen
under peculiar and positive
pledges from each and every
of its body TO carry out
those wise measures and demand
ed reforms that have been and
now are agitating the the public
mind. They will not be denied
and will watch with closest scru-
tiny and jealous glance every
that may be presented
for consideration.

There is something remarkable
in the history. the preservation,
the destiny of the American rep
ublic. A nation of peace, not OF
conquest, it has expanded under
the DEGREES and protection of a
mysterious Providence, until today
its feet rest on the Sandwich
Islands. the Aleutian islands, in
Alaska, in Panama, in Samoa, in
Guam. and the Philippines. 1t
holds the key to the peace and
destinies Of the nations of the

the threatened conflict between
the white race and the yellow
race. A nation of peace. it will
soon be in a position to command

HIDDEN WONDERS.

There are wonders and possibil-
tiles buried beneath the soil OF
Louisiana that will eventually
awaken scientists and biologists
to the superficial Investigations
that have heretofore characterized
their researches. Just who Inhab-
tied the hills and valleys of North
Louisiana is still an unsolved
mystery of the past centuries.
But eviderces are coping on,
that will eventually unfold tht
secrets of past ages, and proclaim
that people once dwelt in a sec
ton of the State where there ex-
isted no lofty hills and who have
left the evidences of an advanced
civilization and cities and paved
highways that are now hidden by
forest, the growth of ages. and by
volcanic upheavels in the long
years of forgotten and unknown
past. Mark the prediction and
watch the development that will
attend the Investigations of the
disciples of the Academy of
Science when they delve into the
history OF the earlier ages of this
continent.

NEED OF REST.

How very few people have sense
enough to go to bed early. says an
exchange. II is a fact that the
lassitude that follows a day of
work. whether mental or physical,
imperauvely demands healthful
rest. 1t is natures sweet restorer.
Those who defy or fitch from its
demands inevitably pay the pen
atty in wasted energy and depleted
physical powers. No man or
woman can defy the memorable
laws of nature without paying the
penalty of their lnfraction.

Some journals blame the people
because the preparation of frauds
in the primary, was emphasized by
them in the election, because they
refrained from voting. Yet no
effort was mace by those who had
the power to rectify the original
wrong and hence the peop.e had
the right to antic pate that it
made little difference how they
voted or whether they voted at
all. as in either case their ballots
would be mere cyphers when op.
posed to the methods of the
bosses. The voters we're disgrun-
tied and they manifested their
feelings by staying at home.
