But two dead soldiers were singled

From all that had stung so we'll
The evening before they had heard
That now they refused to tell,
The other dead soldiers had boastes

OF how they had helped the din.
And some of them laughed as they spun
their yarns
OF intrigue and lust and sin.
One told Of a woman who toasted death,
And one Of a country lass
Who followed the path of the primrose
way
Straight down to DISTINCTIONS pass,
And one gave the words of a plotted
crime.
or murder and drcgs and shame.

WIcKLIFFE's SHOWING

!. Inc election shows that Robert C. Wick
me developed more strength than was
thought possible in candidate running on
=, ms own merits and handicapped by the po-
htlcal machinery of the State.
without other influence than the voluntary
support OF those who know him and recog-
nlze how valuable his services would be to
the people OF this district as representative
IN Congress, he has shown that he is able to
night his own battles and that he is "a Win
ner. That is the kind of man the people
OF the Sixth District need to battle for their
interests.
The power that was brought to bear by the
Favrot forces to secure his election compelled
the alliance OF many politicians who could
command large number of votes, and who
Gid all in their power to land their candidate
Mr.. Wickliffe was the peoples candidate,
and the people have given him a majority
that makes it positively certain that he will
be nominated in the coming primary.
Recognizing the fact that it will be impos-
slble to defeat him now, that large number
OF voters who dislike to be on the losing side
and who shift with the current will vote for
him at the next election. It is also probable
that Mr.. Wickliffe will get majority of the
votes cast for Mr.. Lefebvre.
1t will be remembered by those who had
the pleasure of listening to Mr.. Wickliffe
when he spoke in this parish that he calico
special attention to the results anticipated
when the votes should be counted in East
and West Feliciana and in East Patton Rouge
His prediction of the result of the election ii
those parishes was not mere braggadocio, anc
to freshen the memory of those doubling
Thomases who said it was all bosh' we
quote from letter written by him to the
Farmer on the morning Of September 1:
The two Felicianas will poll to-day some
1900 hundred votes Of which will receive
twice or three times as large per cent al
Favrot will receive in East Baton Rouge
where fully 1900 votes will be polled."
Mr.. Wickliffe's prediction was more thar
verified, and the confidence he felt in thu
support of his home people was born of thu
knowledge that he was deserving of it.
