self-expressfon If our vision is that
of a new heaven and new earth. X.
If we are sincere, seek to have that
new heaven and new earth at once,
right here No man possesses any
ideal he does not seek to express and
realize No man has any religion he
does not use.
Putting religion into practice becomes
at once a much broader matter than do
ing things at a church, passing the
plate or serving in the choir; it means
bringing to prevail in human relations,
IN society, every principle, ideal, and
hope that we cherish religiously; it
means helping men to the projections
we may dream of the deity possessing,
causing our dull earth to bloom with
the glory of a long ago Eden and max
ing the streets of our city to ring with
the songs of children and shine with
the glory of the new Jerusalem.
Religion is becoming intensely prac-
teal; 1t means brooms, bricks, asphalt,
votes, primaries it means honesty,
square dealing; it means plain, clear,
simple justice instead of maudlin char
ity it means IA fair wage instead OF
robbery condoned or palliated by the
sop to Cerberus. the library or the hos
pital it means that man cannot eX-
press his religion in singing psalms on
Sunday, then pack it away in cotton in
the pious pigeonhole late on Sunday
evening embalming it for week so
that he may, conscience free, go on his
selfish way
Modern religion will not lift up its
voice in pious phrases while 1T grinds
down the face of the poor, pays to shop
girl a wage that forces them to vice
and to men such pittance as prohio-
it's their rising even i'm ambition above
duh content with being parts OF the
money machine In simplest terms pos
sible, it means that man will express
his religion through his thorough going
morality.
We greatly need to moralize our re-
ligion, to make it stand for the work
ing out OF right and right relations In
every detail of life, for teaching us to
live together for bringing US all to so
cial service and social efficiency.
Not less do we need to spiritualize
our morality We need that men shall
be good not because they have been told
it paws. not because fashion prescribes
certain forms OF conduct, not because
ancient laws mark out the paths OF
moral rectitude, but because high ideals
point out these paths with their clear
shining, because one seeks goodness for
the good of oil,
Morality because sit pays" is immor-
alfty: it is refined, civilized selhshness.
Morality with the spiritual ideal, the
morality that somehow compete man
to lose in the great battle, if but the
cause he loves may win, the passion
that makes US give mp our individual
rights and likes for the right the eter-
nal right OF all; this Is what morality
means when it is lighted with religion,
with devotion to an ideal.
The morality becomes simply the ex-
preston of religion, religion simply
the inspiration Of morality; both are
seeking truth In life, the true life for
all mankind

After several sudden jerks and abrupt
stops the Chicago man on the southern
railroad became apprehensive. Calling
the porter aside he said:
"Sam, is the train safer"
"Safe as any, sah," assured the por-

OUR NEXT GOVERNOR.

It is now but a few days
when the people will tell you
by their ballots at the polls
what they think Of Jared Y.
Sanders, and demonstrate the
utter ineffectiveness of SANDER
and false charges. It is seldom
a man is given an opportunity to
exhibit to the public such power
of self-contol, such a masterful
domination over the passions
and impulses that are a part of
every human organization, and
it's effects cannot be but to
create a feeling of sympathy
and admiration for Mr.. Sanders.
His power to control self, his
great knowledge and ability, his
vast acquaintance with men
and his retentive mind will give
the people a Governor who will
accomplish great things for the
State. That he will be elected
is generally conceded, and we
do not consider that our re-
joicing is premature. He is
our next Governor and we are
proud of it.

MORGAN is THE MAN,

In reference to Bono's appeal
for the election of Mr.. Hebert,
we would suggest that the abili-
ty to run a hostelry, or the fact
that a man has sons in business,
is a rather peculiar basis for his
fitness to beome a useful law
maker or representative of the
people. We desire to see Hon.
Lewis L. Morgan elected, be-
cause he is fitted for the posi-
ton, is a through and through
Democrat, and an energetic,
competent and successful man,
who is devoted to the educa-
tional interests of the parish,
and will accomplish something
for this community when he
takes his seat in the legislative
hall, which he surely will do.

To The Public.

I am reliably informed that
one of my opponents is circulat-
ing a report that | have cheat
ed the school children out of
several thousand dollars. It
seems absurd that any sane
man would for a moment &C
cept such a statement as truth
full. The Assessor does not
handle one cent of the public
funds of the State or Parish.
| have always co-operated
with the School Board to
further the interests of the
public school of the parish, and
in confederation of their state
ment | refer every one to Hon.
]. S. Jones, President of the
School Board, and w. G. Evans,
Superintendent of the Public
Schools and Secretary of the
School Board.
The unWary are frequently
hoodwinked, by trumped up
charges, just previous to cleo
ton, circulated for the puf-
pose of securing votes, and | am
pleased that this story has come
to my errs in time to be refuted.
Yours respectfully.
Warren Thomas.

AS State Senator for the 18th
District, Mr.. Smith was Chair
man of the Committee on Audit
ing and Supervising Expenses
of the Senate, and a member Of
the Finance and other prominent
committees. He was Register
of the State Land Office during
Governor Heard's administra-
ton, and his services in this
capacity will long be remember
ed by those people, many of
them poor and without means
of securing other homes, who
are indebted to him for secure
titles to their homes. The af-
fairs of this office were in an
awful tangle when he took
charge, and it is due to his
systematic and intelligent con-
duct Of it's affairs that matters
were Strengthened out. His
varied experience and high
sense of honor would make him
an invaluable official in the po-
sition he seeks. And to his
credit it may be said that if he
be elected Auditor of Public
Accounts, and we believe and
hope that he will be, he will
enter upon his duties without
any strings tied to him free to
conduct his Office as he thinks
it should be conducted.

FOR AUDITOR,

State Treasurer James M:
Smith, candidate for Auditor
of Public Accounts, was in Gov
ington last Saturday. While
this is Mr.. Smiths first visit to
our town and parish, he is very
well known to the people here
through excellent record he has
made in the various positions
with which the people of the
State have honored him, and he
expressed with great warmth
his high appreciation of the
support the people of this
parish gave him when he was
elected to his present position.

Bright as Day.
Suggested on reading Bono's
article in the Covington News of
the 18th instant.

Suggested on reading Bono
lrticle in the Covington News O
he 10Th instant.
o, have you seen the News" to-day,
And read what Bono said?
The lime light is the light o. Day
That shines upon his head.
No mudholes in the road you find,
Steel bridges span the creeks,
'Tis road machine work of the kind
Day introduced that speaks.
No stranger to the town can come.
There's none to welcome him.
We need another change, by gum
To put him in the swim.
He says seat-warmers now abound,
And views with scorn the lot,
But if seat for Day is found
He'll let him keep it hot.
And soon the wind would cease to blow,
We'd haye all summer days;
And frost and sleet and ice and snow
Would quit their freakish ways.
And nighttime, with its shroud of black,
Its stars and milky way,
At changing things would take whack,
And be as bright as Day.
Well, Bono, since your lime light search
Makes him in such demand,
Why take him from his present perch
From shake of strangers hand
So much in four years he has done,
No tic should bind him tight.
Forsooth, the sheriff's Office won
The stranger'd loose the fight.
His business cares would tie him down
Should he the battle win,
And strangers passing through the town
Would raise an awful din.
So, Sheriff Brewster, stand aside
And watch the people vote
No change like this could they abide,
It's more than they could tote.
We have tried you, Sheriff Brewster,
And you've run your Office right,
And your record is the booster
That will win for you the fight.
