late to save the little, restless figure
restless and now gone! For one
moment Johnnie stared blankly down,
and there, catching a f1eeting glimpse
OF a tiny form in the deep water, over
which the guelders bent, he, too,
climbed up and over. Catching the
branches as he plunged madly down.
he landed on the banks, trembling
and eager. She was not far away. He
could see her right out in the center
Of the pond. He had seen a boy
drowned there, and he knew how deep
it was. AS the thought flashed
through his brain, his face grew even
paler. Essie was not dead yet. He
might die with her IL he couldn't save
her.
Other folks heard them by this

came running down to the boat

the conclusion was reached by
many. including not a few of the
Louisiana Legislators. that the
election was a declaration against
other radical policies of the HOke
Smith regime. on moral issues,
including prohibition, and it was
proclaimed that the first act of
the Brown administration would
be, if not to wipe out prohibition,
to at least modify and weaken
the existing prohibition law that
it would amount to nothing. The
Democratic platform sets this at
rest, and declares that the pro
hibitiOn question is removed from
the field of legislation" and that
all efforts to repeal, emaSculate
or weaken the present law" must
be defeated and Its honest and
strict enforcement carried out.
Prohibition is, therefore, not to
go out and the liquor traffic is
not to be restored because Joe"
Brown will be Governor of the
State instead of HOke Smith,
which was what was expected
when both candidates ran on a
prohibition platform.
Other planks in the platform
declare for an economical admin
istration of the State government
and a reduction in the rate of
taxation; the passage of strin-
gent laws against lobbying; the
abolition of unnecessary Offices,
and "a careful scanning of Geor-
gia's payroll to the end that all
sinecures be cut off"-all of
which and much more of
the same character can be re
ferred to the Louisiana Legisla.
