KINNEY REID A CAN
DIDATE FOR CONGRESS
CaIGaSleu Sheriff Creates Surprise By EnieP-
ing the Race, But says He's ID Earnest
PROSPER NOT CANDIDATE
Reid IS from PuIO's Parish. and His Being Ii
the Race Makes More Certain
BalIey's Election

Sheriff D. S. Reid, of Calcasieu, IS
candidate for Congress from the
Seventh Congressional District. He
has announced and deposited the
money with the Secretary Of State
and Secretary Of the Congressional
Executive Committee required to
qualify him.
His announcement came as a sur
prise. He is from Congressman
Pujo's parish, and his candidacy must
necessarily hurt the chances Of Mr..
Pujo, and further insure the election
Of James ]. Bailey to Congress.
Mr.. Bailey was considered d win
ner before Mr.. Reid announced him
self, but now his stock has gone up
to a prohibitiYe figure. tt is claimed
by bis friends that he will not lose
two parishes in the district.
Prosper Garuthers, Of Acadia. who
had also qualified as a candidate, has
Withdrawn from the race, and was
refunded the money he had put 10
with the Secretary Of State.

THEY Want JIM BAILEY
in AVOYELLES PARISH
"AVOyeIIes Is for You, But We Want 10 Make II

SPEAK AT MARKSVILLETO- DAY
Prominent Citizens There Pay All Expenses
OF Meeting, Including
Brass Band.

Eve want you to speak at meet
ing to be given in advocacy of your
candidacy here Saturday evening, /"
says, in substance, a letter from
Marksville, received by Hon. James
J, Bailey, candidate for Congress
from the Seventh District.
The letter continues to say that
while AvoYelIes parish is a Jim Bailey
parish, it is the intention over there
to give him killing" majority. Tt
says that prominent men there have
provided for memorable reception
to him, including brass band music.
Mr.. Bailey was away when the let
ter was received, but the message
was Immediately conveyed to him,
and he answered that he would be in
Marksyille in due time Saturday
jim" Bailey is considered a win
nier in the race for the Democratic
nomination for Congress from this,
the Seventh, Congressional District.
Not only is it the prevailing opinion
in the District, but outside of the dis
trict it is freely predicted that the
tall sycamore from st. Landry" will
figure in the halls of Representatives
Of the United States the next term.
The attempt Of some to inject the
issue III the campaign that the adj
ministration is supporting Mr.. Bailey
amounts to naught. Mr.. Bailey can
stand on his Gown bottom" he has
administrationists as well as anti-ad-
ministrationists supporting him. And
Furthermore, were the administration
supporting him, the fact would be to
his advantage; the present adninis-
tration is one Of the most popular in |
the history Of the State, and a candi-
date who would refuse its support
would show very title political sense.
But. as Governor Sanders announces,
he is not a resident Of this district,
and has no candidate. he doubtless
has personal choice that's bis
business and his right.

Mr. Lacombe's absence for several

Of the project, but now he is down

Such an organization is a great
