CoIFAx GRANT PARISH La SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 25 1911

Some of these contests have been
pending more than twenty years,
and still they have no relief. The
United States instituted suit against
the railroad company and have SO
far got no relief for the settlers. Who
has been in fault? There had been
such racket kicked mp something
had TO be dune.
Only recently Hon. NC. Blanchard
has been appointed attorney to pro-
secute these claims. The writer was
in conversation with Mr.. Blanchard
few days ago, and he said that
should the Lord spare him long
enough that he expected to sue these
cases fought out.
Now, in twenty to thirty years what
has become Ola great many of these
settlers? The writer has seen nearly
all of these claims, and knows that
many difficulties are in the way.
The best Of counsel represents the
railroad side, with only Mr.. Blanch-
ard and the poor old settlers on the
other side. These settlers are very
poor people. and have not been able
to employ the proper help. Let Us
give Mr.. Blanchard our praise and
help him with our hearty co-orpora-
ton.
Recently the Chronicle and other
papers OF the State have been notify
ing the people to send In their appli-
cations for these lands. The Cover
ment WILL act on all claims in accord
ance with their representations, and
render decision on the proofgiven by
thern.i But it was never said that
the government could give the people
the relief they desired.
Take the act of March 2, 1895. 1t
plainly says that the United States
shall only bring suits to annual pa
tents to lands within five years after
the passage of this act, ind suits to
annual patents hereafter issued shall
only be brought within six years af-
ter the date of the issuance of such
patents. Now We see there is quite a
job of litigation yet ahead Of us.
What will be the end? And when?
Only the great Creator knows.

To the Democratic Voters and Citi-
Gems of Grant Parish, L0uisiana:
In becoming a candidate for the Of
fee Of Representative Of your par
ish, do not deem it necessary for
me to introduce myself to the people
from the fact that l was raised here
among you.
As to my paet life great many
of you people know me. OF course l
am better known in the central and
eastern part of the parish than in the
western part, as l have been practic-
ing my profession as Doctor of Medi-
cine for fifteen years near Pollock.
Therefore say to the people of the
parish if they confide in me sufficient
ly to elect me representative of their
parish l reserve the right as an
American citizen to vote upon all
questions that may come before me
to the best of my knowledge and be-
lief, and to the interest of the great
est number of people, and therefore l
make you people few promises.
As to cliques and rings l know
nothing OF them, for I am over, so
years of age, and this 10 my first
effort IN politics.
1t IL reasonable to suppose that
being Doctor OF Medicine / would
advocate measures regulating all
sanitary matters, and husband the
health 81 our State, as Iclaim we are
living in an age Of preventive medi-
cine.
/ endorse part of the platforms of
Others, and some parts / do not, but
educationally l wilIeNpress my views.
shall favor n measure that will
eliminate the Governor of our State
from the State Board Of Education.
do not think that he shouldbe con-
nected with the State Board in any
way, as it gives him more political
power with which toIbuild up a poll
tical machine.
shall do oil ran for the cause OF
education, and thereby keep up the
progressive movenen along this
line into which our parish was usher
ed a lew years ago which has placed
her among the most progressive par
ishes of the State. In conclusion. will

Y .. ay was the first of July. Being the first
Of = )nth it was also rent day-pay day for the
renCo- collecting day for the landlords. On the
way home at noon one landlord who has remained
quiet all during our campaign for more economical
rents, made a confession,
This morning" he began, II went to collect the
rent from one of my tenants He had been reading
your editorials on the rent situation but he said
nothing to me about it and paid his rent right down
AS he was writing the check l said to him: Just
deduct $3.50 from the BILL your rent is lowered that
much per month He was exceedingly grateful l
rent houses but your campaign is timely and in the
interest of our city Rents have been too high"
So you see it is beginning to bear fruit-ths cam
paign for more reasonable rents Not all of the
landlords are acting in so Commendable a way; not
all of them are subject to criticism for there are
instances in Tusa-have been all along where the
rents are fixed equitable basis in proportion to
the service given.
And some Of the landlords are terribly indignant.
They say the World is knocking that it is running
Tulsa Think Of the World doing anything to injure
the town on which it depends for it's support The
one, stable immovable fixture of town or city is
the newspaper 1t can't be moved No matter what
happens, it must stay and see it through And yet
there ethose who are fond of charging that this
or that paper is running the town.
Others assert that Tulsa was made by the land
lords, and that, instead of knocking the rents, the
World should bolster them up; that high rents mean
the landlords will have more money with which to
build more houses from which to collect more rent
And that such an arrangement is good for the peo-
pie as it learns them thrift industry and economy
and diScourages the reckless extravaganza of spend
ing twenty five or thirty cents week attending the
moving picture shows.
In the following communication, such an argument
is seriously put forward

UNUSUAL CONDITIONS.

The bank clearings for the past
week were S57S,5S6, the daily aver
age being, $S5.59S. The total of the
bank clearlngs for the month of June
was S2,G57,272.
The postoffice receipts for the
month Of June were $5,642.32. or
about ten per cent greater than
those for the month of June In the
year 1910.
II is expected that the business
reports for the coming week will be
good. 1t being Fourth OF July week
there will be one less business day,
but the fact that Independence Day
is a day for Celebrating" will mean
that money will loosen up. Yester-
day being the first day of the
month, several large payrolls were
turned loose 1t was payday for the
city employees and for the govern
ment employees The workers at the
pos.offlce and in the various city

this, there are the railroad employ
