Hon. Thos. c. clYnn the Man.
Advertisement.

There will be an election in September
for member of the Board of Equalization
/ from the sixth district The value of this
board to the people is more largely de
pendent upon its personnel than any
board we have Upon the ability of its
members depends the encouragement OF
| legislation that will give it power to adj
minister its affairs effectively and in the
interest of the whole people, unhampered
| by litigation or the opposition of large
moneyed interests. 1t is in a position in
which it must necessarily be conservative,
and its progress must be graduated by
difficulties that are insurnountable under
existing conditions. 1t is therefore inn
portant that its membership should be
kept free from radical influences th4t may
precipitate conflict, opposition and litiga-
ton, without the accomplishment of any
good; yet it should have that degree of
firmness that will not submit to dictation
or the sacrifc of public interest.
Hon. Thos. C. Glynn will be candidate
for reelection from this, the sixth district.
His services have been of a character to
win the esteem and confidence of the peo-
pie. While firm and unyielding in his con-
victions of right, he is not dogmatic or be-
yond the influence of reasoning. He is a
man of strong personality and good judg-
ment, and while he is progressive and in
itiative, he is not radical or extreme and
above all, is incorrupt;ble. His following
lieve it is throughout the entire district.
for aside from his obliging and genial dis
position, his familiarity with land values
the situation and grading of standing tim
Der and its opportunities for handling and
marketing, has marked him as pre-emi-
nently fitted for the position.
Nobody can beat Glynn, is common
expression in this district. But we trust
this feeling of confidence will not keep his
friends from turning out in full force and
giving him the vote he is entitled to as a
compliment-St. Tammany Farmer, Aug. 6.
Having been in attendance at the meet
ing of the State Board of Equalization at
Baton Rouge until Aug. 10, Mr.. Glynn has
not had an opportunity to make as
thorough canvass of the sixth district as
he should have liked to and WOULD have
done had there been more time at his
disposal. He solicits the support of the
voters of the district, and assures them
that if he is reelected he will continue to
represent their interests to the best of his
ability and knowledge.

by the noise of some one pulling on the
door of her bedroom, and aWoke just in
time to see the door open and the negro
enter the room. She jumped from bed
and ran into another part of the house,
followed by the negro. In the meantime
Mr.. Bfaud had been aroused and when he
made his appearance the negro dashed
from the house and escaped in the woods.
Mrs. Bourg recognized the intruder as a
man who had passed her home earlier in
the day, and was able to give coed de-
Scription of him. Posses secured the New
River section and the black fend was
finally captured at Galvez by Deputy
Sheriff Nick Delaune and Messrs. William
Sevario and HILBERT. He was taken be-
fore Mrs. Bourg, who positively identified

The local theatrical season will be for
mally opened on Monday, Sept. 10. when
Manager Nolan of the Gondran Theatre

the pen of G. Herbert Kerr, who wrote
THE Beauty Doctor, Little Doliie Dim

fine soprano voice and was engaged. at a
high salary to make two records a month

sing number of high-class selections as
well as several of the catchy order, the
latter including 'Mafiutch, If the Wind

exceptionally interesting season.

Invited to Participate in Ohio Exposition.
The DonaIdsonville Progressive Union
is in receipt Of the following communica-
ton:
New Orleans, La, Aug. so, 1910.
Progressive Union, Donaldsonville, La
Conference.-The management of the
Ohio Valley Exposition at Cincinnati has
designated September S as New Orleans
Panama Exposition and Dixie Day. To
our mind, this is a most happy blending,
for while it is true that the entire Missis-
sippi Valley will be benefited by this ex-
position, it is Dixie who will reap the rich
harvest Dixie so long dormant has
awakened to the value of her natural re-
sources; capital has turned in our direc-
ton and, through the medium of this
Panama Exposition, our hidden wealth
will be revealed to the world.
"A special program has been arranged
for September s. Among the speakers
will be Governor Sanders, Mayor Behrman,
some Of the representatives of our EXPOSE
ton, and in all probability, at least one
address by some prominent southern
orator.
We understand that the railroads have
made low rate for this occasion and it
is earnestly hoped that the attendance
on that date will be very large and repre-
sentative, both as an advertisement for
the south and for the efforts New Orleans
is making to secure congressional recog-
milton as the logical point TO celebrate the
Worlds Panama Exposition.
We would be very glad indeed if some
representative Of your organization could
be IN Cincinnati on above date, and would
thank you to see that your local papers
give publicity to this matter.
Awaiting your reply, we beg to remain,
Yours very truly,
IT. P. THOMPSON.

has been seriously i'll for the past fortnight,
was taken to New Orleans on the steamer
St. James last Wednesday night and con-
veyed to the Hotel Dieu to undergo
course of treatment. 1t had been feared
that Miss Terrio was suffering from an at
tack of peritonitis and would have to sub
NIT to surgical operation, but since her
removal to the Hotel Dieu the physicians
OF that institution have diagnosed her ill
mess as typhoid fever and state that an

tent was resting quietly at last accounts,

set in it is believed that her recovery is
assured. Miss Terrio was accompanied to
New Orleans by her parents and Miss

Crop and Weather Notes.

The past weeks weather was clear and
dry up to Thursday, when a soaking rain
fell throughout the entire afternoon. Rice
cutting. fall blowing and cotton picking.
which are the chief agricultural pursuits
now being prosecuted in this neighborhood,
were seriously interfered with by the
doWnpour. and about the only benefit ac-
cruing from the precipitation was derived
by the cane crop, which stood in need of
a little moisture after several days of dry
warm weather.
The work of harvesting the pea-pine
hay crop was inaugurated during the past
week and is being pushed with all possible
vigor. The yield is quite fair, considering
the handicap inflicted on the crop by the
unfavorable weather during the greater
part of the growing season. and sufficient
hay will be stored on most of the planta-
tons in this locality to feed the stock for
e{months.
Fall blowing was also started this week
and is proceeding as rapidly as circum-
stances will permit. Owing to the intense
heat it is not possible to keep the teams
at work throughout the day, only few
hours early in the morning and a like
period in the cool of the afternoon being
devoted to the task of putting the ground
in shape to receive the fall planting of
cane. This work is the order of the day
on all the sugar farms in this neighbor-
hood and is engaging the attention of a
large proportion of the field forces, the re-
mainder being employed in the task of
gathering and storing the hay crop.
Cane continues to develop in a most
satisfactory and promising manner, as
certainly it should under the influence of
the exceptionally suspicious atmospheric
conditions with which it is being favored
this season. Preparations for the open
ing of the grinding campaign about the
middle of next month will soon be actively
instituted at all of the factories in this
section.

The City of Rome

Last Thursday morning the City of Rome, owned by Albin Baritello and M. J. Q'Cornor, started from the city dock for tour of the waters to the southward. Besides the owners, she she carried Henry Erie, Ed Andrews, E. M. Peters and the News Man.
 At Limestone inlet plentiful supply of crabs was easily obtained, and then the boat was headed for Gambler bay, one of the large indentations on the east coast of Admiralty island. This was reached late at night, and she bright sunshmeos the following morn. ing revealed a most beautiful scene. The quiet waters of the bay were GOV. cred with Aocks of ducks mum 5ering many hundreds. When disturbed they rose from the water like 9 cloud and the noise of their wings was as the rushing of mighty waters. Overhead circled the wild geese and their "honk, houk" was heard continuously. From the wooded shores came the boot of the grouse, and more careful inRestiga- kion revealed the Aaants of the deer and the bear.
 At the head o&Snng cove, an arm of the bay. the mountain stream adds beauty to the landscape, as 1t clashes from the snow crowned hills and rans n placid contentment through the val ley, clear and cold.
 After few hours the boat was again beaded into the restless waters of Frederick sound and a few hours brought Us to Pybus bay, where the beauties of Gambler are duplicated. Here, too, the geese make their nests and hatch out hundreds of fluffy little goslings. Pybus bay seems to have no inhabitants other than the animals and birds, but in Gam bier bay is family of Indians ruled and Led by chiet called Gambler Jim. bn bis mind, Jim is the monarch of all hs surveys, his rights there are none to dispute, and when the white hunter comes into this secluded spot, Jim seeks to levy tax on the sport of killing the game. Some, times it works, but then again it fails
 Too soon the time arrived when the boat must be turned toward home, back to the grind of steady work, say ing good bye to the charm of those beautiful solitudes. Any good gas boat will take yoa to Gambler bay in thirteen hours, and ityouare not made better and happier by such g. dip into natures fountain of joy we miss oar guess. And if you can be fortunate, and find the sunshine there, you will be more than repaid for your trouble The party reached home Monday night without mishap of any kind.

Who are rough necks2

Who are rough necksS
 They are nea who toll iu the mines or upon the seas or on the farms. They are men who surveyed in the cold and rain like Washington did; who tanned leather like Grant and who split gails as did Lincoln. Wherever men have worked under the burning sun or nip ping air OF in dCst.6arksned mines un' til their hands and faces have been roughened by toll, they have been scornfully referred to by tbe self styled "better element" as trough necks." The term is common among railway men and Is ase6 in spirit of pleas antry.
 A few days ago the Washington dis patches stated that Governor Clark, iD giving bis evidence before the inVesti- gating committee, sneeringly said that the supporters of Marshal Sutherland were only the trough necks." He im- piled that the lily fingered "betrer ele- ment who toll not, were opposed to Sutherland, opposed to Boyce, opposed to self government, opposed to the Declaration of Independence and the constitution of the United States being applied to Alaska; in fact, opposed to everything except emolumeas and easy money.-Ketchikan Miner.
