STAND FIRM.

The fattering majorltleS that
Mr., Wickliffe received in the late
primary has astonished the
State. But in the event of an
other primary, every effort Will
be put forth by his opponent not
only to capture the Lefebvre vote
but to weaken Wicklitfe's intiu-
ence where he has shown him
self strong. Every article that
can be employed, every possible
argument will be advanced tC
change the voter.
So, it is timely to warn the sup
porters of Wickliffe to be on thelI
guard, to stand firm, firm as th'
principles which first induced
them to cast their vote for Thu

non. VICTOR LEF'EBFRE.

In the midst of eur iubilatiOn,
last week, over the central figure
on the stage, Bob Wicklitfe, we
overlooked the third and retiring
candidate, Mr.. Lefebvre. This
we regret, not only on account
of sincere regard and respect
for that gentleman, but because
we recognize that defeat is some
times as honorable as victory.
Mr.. Lefebvre was not so we'll
known or so magnetic as his OPP
pOnentS, and consequently had
not so good a showing, but in the
event Of Mr.. Wickliffe'S having
been third there can be little
doubt that his supporters would
have gone over to the West Ba-
ton ROugean.
Our papers would certainly
have done so. To-day, we would
have been working for Lefebvre,
and we believe the same is true
of every man who voted for
Wicklilfe, from principle. 1t
therefore seems fair that the LIE
febvre vote, since it supported
that clean and honorable gentle
man, should go to one equally as
clean and honorable-to R0bt. G.
WicklilTe. We believe it will do
so in every instance where not
influenced by private considera-
tons or interests, and thus will
add to the unanimity with which
the people will uphold the honor
of the district.

DEMOCRATIC ANNOUNCEMENTS:
yHE PEOPLES CANDIDATE.

We like that term the peo-
ple's candidate" used by the ST.
Tammany Farmer in an editorial,
which we reproduce in another
column. 1t refers to Robert T.
Wickliffe. whose remarkable
race for congress, we'll entities
him to that proud cognomen.
The peoples candidate! Yea,
verify! For whether rightly or
wrongly said that gubernatoriaI
influence was behind one OF the
other candidates, the fact can
not be denied that the office
holders, we're for FayrOt with few
exceptions outside Of the Fellcl-
anas. ana these men Of the most
independent character only,
Favrot. And the men most act,
i've for that candidate throughout
the district were men seeding
some appointive Office, and who
could have had no other reason
under heaven for their zeal but
self interest.
On the other hand, making no
promises, having absolutely no
backing from the governor, go
ING on his own record and per
sonal rectitude, Robert Wickltfe
has gone before the people in a
direct appeal, so distinctlVely
their candidate, that their re-
Spouse has been so great as to
be spectacular.
He is the peoples candidate.
He is not bound in promises to
any e-hOlder or of1ice-seeker.
His promise is to serve the peo-
pie, and their final choice will be
not merely an acceptance of that
pledge, but will be the untram-
meled expression of the people,
triumphant over dictati0n, petty
selfinterest and graft.
1t only remains for all of his
friends, The People, to remain
loyal and to watch seduously
against insiduOus approaches
intended for his defeat, but
which they may turn into his
victory and theirs.

DEFENSE WAS ETHICAL.

A supersensitive friend of
ours criticizes The TRUE DEMO
Graf for replying TO the Gilmore
letter, which appeared in this
paper as an advertisement, a
few days before the primary, in
timating that it was not ethical
to knock an advertiser
An advertiser, dear sir, gets
only the space he pays for, no
more, no less. Did any other
rule hold good no independent
journal could carry both ad
vertiseing and editorial matter.
For example, this paper accepts
a limited number of patent med
icine advertisements, but it has
never sold the right to express
its d!sapprOval Of patent medi-
cineS whenever occasion offers.
1t would have been unethical
to have permitted Mr.. Wickliffe
to answer the Gilmore letter be-
fore publication, although he
could have done so more authOrl-
tatively than we, but any one dis.
posed to criticize US for doing sc
should ask himself if he would
see a friend attacked without re
senting it, knowing that friend
would have no opportunity fol-
reply.
The attempt to make Mr.. Gil
more a martyr is absurd and flu.
tile in view of the facts. The
truth is that Mr.. Gilmore swap
ped horses in the middle of the
stream, and is suffering the con
sequences of such poor politics
in his own disturbed sense O.
right and the very natural crit
cism of others. Whether Wick
life wins or not, no West Felici
aanian can afford to desert his
cause, as by that measure parish
LOYALTY is being gagged by gen
eral consent of the people. Thu
latter feel that Mr.. Wicklife, by
the brilliancy of his success il
the first primary, has not onl!
reflected credit upon himself
but has placed his parish ant
section in an enviable light be
fore the outside world. He is il
a position to cast greater lustr
upon it if not dragged down O
betrayed in the house of hi
friends, hence for it's own sake
as we'll as his, all West Felician
esp0uses his cause.

Youag Bob Wickliffe for Congress.

The defeat of George K. Favrot
for Congress from the Sixth Dis
trict by young Bob Wickliffe
shows that the omnipotent Ma
chine is not entirely invulner-
able.
From the returns, it looks, too
as if Achilles were shot in many
places besides his heel.
He seems to be entirely rid
died!
Which all goes to show that the
spirit of independence is strong
in the country where the wind
blows free and nature all around
suggests the dignity of man.
1t is possible that the District
could not have made a wiser Sc.
lection.
Scion of a great ancestry, son
of a great man-one of the great
est, indeed, in Louisiana history
young Bob Wickliffe will much
disappoint a multitude of people
if he do not, like that sturdy
'Cadian, Bob Broussard, from
the south of the State, evince
more or less of an intelligent un
derstanding of the fact thai
LouisianianS send one to Con
gress, not to warm the Congress
sional chair, but to think and act
on the initiative for Louisiana; tt
make himself known throughout
the country as a Louisianian.
Harlequin will place a bet OF
young Bob Wickliffe.
The nation is going to know hi
is in Congress. Joe Leveque, il

Those who sympathize with
Favrot, calling him the under
dog in the fight, are usually those
who have bets on the under dog.
They seem to forget that he is
the present encumbrance, ito
quote Mrs. Malaprop) and is
said to have official influence be-
hind him; so why under dog?
Unless, indeed he really is.
The true Democrat. [volume] (Bayou Sara [La.]) 1892-1928, 1908-09-12

1t seems a pity that George
Favrot has not such discerning
friends as Mr.. Breazeale has. to
draw him back from the humili-
alton of defeat. Badly advised
by friends, who have the gam
bler's passion for casting all up
on a single hazard, they are urg-
ing him on. He may yet be in
the plight of Emperor Constan-
tine, at, the fall of COnstantinople,
whose one cry in the hour of de.
feat was heard: Can there not
be found a Christian Lfriendl to
cut off my head?'

NKN YORK STOCK MARKET

New York, March 1.-THE stock
market made a striking demonstra-
ton of strength today during the
short Saturday session and gave
convincing evidence of a substantial
speculative revival with growing
confidence in it's expression and
broadening participation in the num-
ber concerned in the operations The
market showed greater digestive
power than at any previous period
of the week, and was sharply tested
in that respect, as the selling to take
profits from time to time was heavy.
The stimulating influence on the
speculation clearly looked to Wash
ington for it's origin, or to the per-
sistent reports Of proceedings at
Washington which circulate in the
financial district The presence in
consultation with the government au-
thorities OF several men regarded as
most responsib1e authorities nf tae
great property interests of the coun-
try has been followed with intense
interest i'm the financial district.
The belief is held that these consul
