Michel DENIES THAT
HE MADE DICKER WITH
SEGREGATIONISTS
REGULAR Candidate Declares That he Was Not
Even In Shreveport On the Date he Is
Charged to Have Hads Compact

New Orleans Aug. 1.-The
DALEY Item says: Mr.. John T.
Michel, the regular candidate for
Governor, Monday morning
branded as a falsehood Shreve-
port story printed in an after.
noon New Orleans newspaper
Sunday to the effect that he had
promised the "segregationists'
to deliver" the New Orleans
delegation to the next legislature
| in return for their support in the
primary,
The Shreveport story declared
he had promised to hand over
the city delegation stock
and barrel in return for the en-
tire voting strength of the seq
regationists'' who were con-
spicuous during the 1910
regular session of the general
assembly the Shreveport local
LIQUOR interests are looked after
by an anti-prohibition league.
The story declared:
The ideas running through
minds Of many people in North
Louisiana is how the New Or
leans liquor interests will take
Michels stirring up of a phrase
on the liquor question in North
Louisiana which may have a ten
dency to precipitate a state wide
prohibition campaign, for segre-
cation carried to its logical con-
clusion will batter down the bull
Wark of local parish option which
is New Orleans greatest pro-
lection and start an agitation in
in any parish now quiet on the
the subject, and thereby possibly
lead to state wide campaign
as was the case recently in
Texas. F."
THE Story was cut out of the
whole cloth, said Mr.. Michel.
1t is simply a wild dream, with
out even a shadow of truth in it.
I am represented by the Shreve-
port correspondent as having
gone to Shreveport two
weeks ago to make this
alleged dicker with the segrega-
ltionists. AS Nlatter of fact L
was last in Shreveport in the
middle Of May. Nor has any
one authorized to represent me
gone there to make the alleged
deal.
7 have had no talk with the.
segregationists of Shreveport or.
any other section of the State.
The idea that could, or would,
deliver the New Orleans delega-
ton to the segregationists, 4or
any other faction, is.so preposter-
Gus as hardly to be worthy of
serious attention. Why, the
delegation has not even been
selected by the people; and the
gentlemen who comprise it, ]
imagine, will have well defined
issues in their platforms when
they seek the endorsement OF the
Democratic electorate.
MY position on the liquor
question was thoroughly defined
in my platform. I have nothing
to add to or take away from
that declaration. The ShreVe-
port story is absolute rot; there
is not the barest vestige OF truth
in it. -

LARGE CROWD WILL
ATTEND SANDERS DAY
81. LandrIanS VIII Leave This Morning for
the Capital to Hear the Governor.
GOO COOS At LAFAYETTE
Counter Attraction viii Also Have Some Al
tendance from the Empire
Parish.

st. Landry went overwhelm-
ingly for J. Y. Sanders in his
race for the Governorship; and
there is no reason why the EN-
piae parish should not do the
same this time in his race for the
Senate.
The interest in the Sanders
Day to be held in Baton Rouge
to-day would indicate that the
people here are still loyal to the
young Governor, who is now
seeking Senatorial honors.
There will be a large crowd to
leave from here, and other points
in the parish, for the capital city
this morning, and it is safe to
say that st. Landry will come up
in points of numbers to any par
ish in the State.
Governor Sanders will make a
tour of St. Landry shortly.
mere is, as announced last
week, a counter meeting, under
the auspices Of the opposition to
Gov. Sanders, to be held on the
same day in Lafayette.
This move, however, will re-
dound more to the detriment
than to the benefit of the Goo
Coos.
People like fair play more to-
day than ever before.
And moreover, it is plain that
the Lafayette meeting wa s
prompted by fear on the part of
the Goo Coos that people whom
they have enthralled would be
swayed by the eloQuence of Gov
ernor Sanders. and the business
of his claim to the Senatorship.
But the people are wise, and
these little tricks don't count

AN INVESTMENT
La ke/and
Highlands
Will Prove Profitable.

We have sub.divided cur prop.
erty in Lakeland Highlands,
centering around Banana, Scott
and Seward lakes into Bungalow
lots and ten.acre tracts.
We are developing this prop.
erty as a high class resort: we
have sold a large portion Of this
property to people Of means in
the northern states, who will
build beautiful homes and plant
grapefruit, orange and tanger-
inc groves on their holdings.
A number Of sales have been
made to residents of Polk county,
who realize the investment op.
portunity and who further de-
sire to take advantage Of the
pleasure and social features Of
this high class Club Colony. The
Elevation Of Lakeland Highlands
is 300 feet above sea level. The
panoramic views are unsurpass-
ed in Florida. The land is roll.
ing ard naturally drained. The
climate is pure and invigorating
ard there are no mosquitoes nor
malaria at Lakeland Highlands.
The improvements now under
construction, consist of a mag
nificent Country Club House,
Spanish Mission style Of archi-
lecture, schoo, and chapel, boat
houses, stables and garage.
A golf course is now being
planned in addition to many 9th.

ments. The approximate cost to
be $4,000.
With the above improvements
and developments it is obvious
that property values in this Sec
ton will increase very rapidly
during the next few years.
An investment made now, at
the present low prizes and easy |
terms, should yield very hand |
some commercial returns. 1t |
would not be surprising to see
this property double in value
during the next two years.
