SoIicits Your Support for Sheriff.

In announcing myself as candidate
Tor reelection as Sheriff and ex-officio
Tax Collector of Bossier Parish l desire
to solicit the support of every law
abiding citizen of the parish.
My reputation for honesty and fair
dealing is well known to every person in
the parish, and as to my record as
public official this can only be ascer-
tanned by an examination of my record,
which is open to all.
| / have given the affairs of the Office
my personal and undivided attention,
and desire to call to your notice the
closeness of the collection of all taxes
and the promptness with which I make
my settlements. My collections the past
season, exclusive of all interest and pen
alties, were 100 per cent on the dollar,
less two tenths of 1 per cent. This is
substantiated by my books and receipts.
As to my record as criminal officer,
| will leave this for the people to say,
but do know that during my incumbency
in office crime has decreased, and it
will be my effort TO further stamp it out
by continually waging war against the
evil doors and the yiolators of the law,
so long as authorized by the statutes OF
the State Of Louisiana. / have always
tried to be punctual in the discharge OF
my duty to the extent of aiding brother
officers of sister parishes whenever
could render them assistance.
Before closing, would like to ask my
opponent to whom he refers as the
"politieal bosses of Bossier Parish" fol
if he calls my ardent and open sup
pofters "political Bosses" he refers to
about $50 of the best citizens of the
parish, and majority of them are right
on the farm.
Again soliciting your support, an
Respectfully yours,
J. F. EDWARDS.

the people, Mr.. Edwards formal an
, nouncement is to be found in the proper

, the Banner. Affairs inside the Office

business like precision and the crimina
; work coming under its Jurisdiction ha
at all times been fearlessly executed. II

CHICAGO. July 2.-Corn broke more
than cents a bushel today. The smash
in prices resulted from general heavy
rains, especially in Kansas and Nebraska
The consequent benefit TO the crop caused
the market. many stop-loss orders being
brought into action. The buyers were
principally shorts grabbing profits A
large part of the selling was from the
country, but fair support developed on
the decline. Opening prices were Ia to
2is lower. September started at az to tr51a
a fall OF Halls to 2a21s, and rallied to
637s
Wheat suffered from the weakness of
corn, but maintained comparative firm
ness. The bulls were encouraged by
hopes of export business. by the lower
ing of estimates in the northwestern
states and by decreasing deliveries of
winter wheat. Cold weather in the
Canadian fields counted also against the
bears. The opening was 4aA off TO a
