ment of Tulane University in 1890;
was elected district attorney Of the
Twenty-second Judicial District IN
1892; was elected delegate from the
State at large to the constitutional
Convention of 1898; was reelected
District Attorney in 1900; elected dis
trict Judge in 1904, and elected to Con-
gress in 1906.
Although Mr. Favrot was first NOM
mated for Congress nearly two years
ago, his term Cf Office first began en-
March 4, 1907, and the Congress did
not convene until December, 1907, and
adjourned May, 1908. Thus his actual
service in Congress has been but SIX
months. During this short time he
had to encounter and to overcome the
obstacles which beset every new
member He was speedily recog-
nized as a coming man." destined to
become a power in the councils of the
Democratic minority, and was as
signed to so important a committee as
the Committee on Education. He was
also placed on the Committee on Mi
litia, and later was appointed to a va
cancy on the Committee on lmmigra-
ton and Naturalization committee
in the work of which Mr.. Favrot
takes particular interest, and which
is of vast Importance to Louisiana.
This vacancy was created especially to
make a place for Mr.. Favrot on this
committee.
During his six months service in
Congress Mr.. Favrot introduced thirty
four bills, each Of vital Importance to
some of his constituents. He gave
most scrupulous attention to the
numerous private claims arising in his
district. One of three claims from
Louisiana incorporated in the Omnl-
bus Claims Bill in the House is to the
credit of Mr.. Favrot. His attention
to departmental work in the interest
of his constituents has been equally
careful and conscientius.
Mr.. Favrot has made two speeches
in Congress, each of which drew high
est praise from those who henrd them
and f1attering attention from the press.
One was delivered ii April on the SUBJ
iect of the Naval bill advocating a
greater increase in The navy, and the
other, near the close of the session,
advocating the disposal of the philip
pines, Mr. Favrot taking the oppor-
tunity OF this occasion to pay beauti-
full tribute to the south, and present a
powerful argument for the Demo
cratic Party.
We present to the Democratic vo-
ters of the Sixth Congressional dis
trict Mr.. Favrot's claim for re-nomi-
nation on the record which he has
made, with perfect confidence that he
will be returned to Congress.
Respectfully,
THE FAVROT CAMPAIGN COMMITTEE.

Some OF the men seeking ONCE have
been campaigning for year These
have spent practically all they had
and many OF them are deeply in debt.
Bankruptcy is the prospect OF some
facing defeat
These men simply keep going
feverishly. shaking hands, making
friends, not allowing themselves u
stop and think OF the future.
TWO contests particularly engage at
tention-the mayoralty nomination
and that for sheriff. In each the situa-
ton is OF a man who some time ago
appeared TO have a certainty of nom.
nation being rapidly overtaken by
another with third factor dangerous.
Philip Breitmeyer started the
mayoral race with lead that seemed
insurmountable. He has a knack OF
making friends that only one other
man has had In this city. But the
vigorous speeches OF William T. Dust
have caused the latter to draw up in
the closing weeks. Dr. Carstens has
many enthusiastic friends and his
support is largely an unknown guam
tfty although not reckoned dangerous
by the two rivals.
George T. CASTOR likewise started In
the lead in the shrievalty contest, but

Gus friends have done much to dimin

Is the third element in the problem
and he has a large silent following
that will cut a big figure.
The city clerkship fight with hve
entrants Is the closest OF the lot. II
would puzzle a bookmaker TO figure
odds any way. Nichols. Eisman
Busch. Lindsay and Jerome have all
campaigned desperately and IT will be
a question until the vote is all counted
as to which is winner.
The county Offices all furnish pref
ty fights but there has not been the
public interest In them that would de-
termine a result on the surface. IL
will be the voters who have not been
heard from that nominate these can
didates. The same applies TO the JUS
tice of the peace fight.
The races for the Legislature ana
for estimators- are always
guessing matches and more so than
ever this year as both have drawn
unusually strong fields OF aspirahts.
