VIGOROUS PROSECUTION OF
ELECTION FRAUDS NEEDED

" HERE cannot be doubt as to
! what course Republican lead
rrs should take in reference
10 the allegations OF fraud in the Viii
son ballot law counties. Before the
election charges were repeatedly made
that the laws were being violated. and
after the elction the charges were re-
teratcd with emphasis. II is the busi-
ness OF the State Attorneys and the
Grand Juries of the various counties
to see that proper investigation is
made OF such allegations and that pro-
secution IS undertaken where il is JUS
tilted, but experience has demon
Strated that no matter how much
fraud may be committed in these
counties. there is little likelihood that
the authorities will attemnt TO bring
anybody To book ior il.

tionS are conducted in these counties
is well worth the trouble and expense
required To make it, Even il there is
not proof enough at hand to convict

grossly unfair election officials can

If some of our local Dry Goods
merchants would do good, judi
cious advertisements of their goods
giving some of their prices, and
few illurtrations of their novelties,
there might be less of the mail Or
deg business which is now going
outside. Our buyers know of the
Chicago, st. Louis and New York
houses only through their adver.
tisements and the mention of the
goods they have for sale. If our
local stores would only retain here
the trade that goes outside in one
year, the profit on this would more
than pay for their advertisement
bills for ten years. Some wonder
why their business is dull, they do
not realize that every buyer in
this town and parish get plenty of
the outside advertisements, with
prices. That is why.

Home Made Soap.

Put one can of lye or potash in
one quart of cold water. When
cool add six pounds of clean
grease, stirring continually for
ten to fifteen minutes, then pour
into a box or pan to cool. When
the soap becomes a little stiff cut
it into bars. The next day remove
it from the box or pan and place
it on Il shelf to dry. This soap is
so white and pure that it is used
often for toilet purposes.
