within half a million votes of
election
"Mr. Bryan has said that the
80 delegates from New York are
under the influence Of Morgan,
Ryan and Belmont. He has
stated that no man could be
elected by reason of their infiu-
ence. desire to say to him there
is no man In the number who is
under the influence of the men
he has named.
Colonel Bryan has never in
tended to vote for the candidate
of this convention unless he was
Bryan himself.
A majority supported Gov
ernor Harmon and we supported
him until we came to the concIu-
sion that Speaker Clark was the
strongest candidate before this
convention.
New York Is today in favor
of any democrat who can be the
friend of the democratic party
and win.
with this explanation, I want
to say my personal vote Is cast
for Woodrow Wilson of New Jer-
sey."
This caused sensation, as
Stanchfield was expected to vote
for Clark.
Bryan sat quietly in his seat
chatting quietly with Mark Sui
livan and smiling occasionally at
Stanchffeld's remarks. He made
no attempt to reply.
The poll of the New York dele
cation: rs for Clark, 8 for Will
son, 2 for Underwood and l alb
sent.
Under the unit rule, however,
the 80 New York votes were cast
for Clark.

Get Away QuliGks' BallhnBaame

"Get-Away-Quick" BalAngame
was as clipper as ever this FRI
day morning when he arrived at
the office of Carr, Lode, Lott C
Co., where he was clerk. And
why shouldn't he be? He hadn't
missed a ball game in two weeks.
One excuse after another had
won for him many afternoons ~
the ball park.
His superior, Dudley Jones, the
bookkeeper, was on the job when
he arrived and had been for half
an hour. He bestowed on Ballin-
game one of those citrus smiles
that savored of envy. i
Say, Ballingame," said Dud-
ley, "help me out. l want to go
to the ball game this afternoon
Let me in on your system" -
Sure" said Ballingame. "rll
think up a scheme for YOU" =
In ten minutes Ballingame
sided over to Dudley's perch and
unfolded his plan.
"About 2 O'clock" said Balm
game, you tell Mr.. Carr, the
Boss, that you neeV postage
stamps. Then you duck for the
ball park. About 1880 you call
Mr.. Carr by telephone and tell
him you stepped on a banana
skin and got hurt and won't be
back. See?"
Dudley "saw" quickly enough,
Right on schedule he invaded
Mr.. Carr's office and with much
blushing and faltering he got the
information out of his system
that the stamp drawer was
empty. Dudley slipped out and
called the Boss later with the tale
of the accident. A
Jones got hurt over at the
postoffice," said Mr.. Carr to Bal
lingame.
"Thatso," said Ballingame,
maybe somebody'd better go
over and help him?"
"You go, ~Ballingame," said
Mr.. Carr.
So it wasn't half an hour after
that when Ballingame greeted
Dudley in the grand stand, just
after Ty Cobb had tied up the
score with triple.
did you tell the boss you were

to show up at the office tomor-
row with both eyes in good
shape?"
"Gee," said Dudley, II never
thought of that"
Dudley cogitated deeply; then a
bright idea hit him. He beckoned
to Ballingame and led the way to
the rear of the grandstand. Soak
me in tn eye, Ballingame. good
and plenty"
Ballingame gave him wallop
that raised a shanty on his eye In
a couple of minutes.
IF you'd asked my advice, .
said Ballingame, 81 could have
told you some iodine or lamp
black would have BACKED your
eye without PAIN"

the Clark leaders insisted early
today that they would stick. They
declared that even should the
break promised by the Wilson
men occur enough anti-Wilson
men would remain hostile to pre-
vent the New Jersey governor
getting the necessary two-thirds
vote.
The Wilson managers recog-
nize this danger. but are count

democratic leaders for a presi-
Dental victory to force even the
most bitter of the Clark parti-
sans into line should Wilson APP
proach the required vote. Their
chief dependence today was on
the kilograms reaching delegates
from their constituents. The
messages are actually pouring In
by thousands from the home dis
tricts and most of them urge the
recipients to name Wilson.
The managers of the New Jer-
sey governor say that these tele-
grams actually reflect the senti-
ment of the rank and file of the
party.
The moment the Jerseyite pass
es the 500 mark. the floodgates
would open, his hackers say. and
the rush to climb aboard the
Princeton bandwagon would
start.

Wilson men admitted that they

All attempts to date to secure
a compromise candidate have
failed. Senator Kern. endorsed
by Bryan, has as yet kindled no
enthusiasm for his boomlet.
The Foss boom has apparently
collapsed. The attempt to swing
Bryan into line for 1t failed.
The MARSHALL boom has never
been taken seriously. AS for the

Texas, is popular but many feel
that he comes from too far south
to be a factor.
Underwood has been eliminate

there is still considerable
strength for the Alabama con-

already refused because they did
not care to risk denunciation by
Bryan--up to this time. at least.
But they insist that when the
time comes for the earnest eff
fort, the Underwood strength will
surprise the opposition. The
Gaynor supporters were much In
evidence today. Much literature
sounding the praises of New

ROUGH RICE BRINGING
NEARLY $500 PER SACK
Highest Price of the Season Paid
for 1000 Sacks of Mixsd Lot
of Japan and Honduras

c. H. Hurd and Dr.. c. H. Wrigh,
made a sale of 1000 bags Of rice on
Tuesday, at Mermentau, through the
Southern Rice Growers Association
that probably holds the record for
this season In regard to price.
The lot consisted of about 800 bags
OF Honduras and 700 bags of Japan,
all grades, and the price paid was
IS. u per barrel Of about S4S5 Der
sack, all around, for all the grades.
The buyers were Freeland Bros, OF
Crowley, owners of the American mill
at Crowley.
The prices paid for this rice are
above any figures that have been re-
ported, not only in Crowley, but in
any market in the rice belt. The
highest price paid in New Orleans has
been S4.35 and other markets are
lower. Houston and Beaumont hav-
Ing reached the $500 mark. Repre-
sentatives Of the Southern Rice Grow
ers' Association assert that rice will
go still higher before the season
closes.-Crowlev Signal.

the sack. Messrs. H. +. Estrada and
NJ. h. Pearce came here from the
vicinity of Rustin and took charge Of
the fremont hotel the first of the year.
Presenting fairly good appearance
these gentlemen were extended liberal
line of credit by the different firms of
the city. At the end of the first month
Mr.. PearCe supposedly withdrew from
the partnership, leaving Mr.. Estrada
sole proprietor OF the hotel, which
seemed to be doing good business.
As late as Saturday afternoon Mr..
Estrada assured certain of his cred.

counts the following Monday morning,
while doubtless intending all the
while to leave on the night train.
AS long as the business men OF
Welsh allow grafters and dead beats
of the Estrada type to throw the hooks
into them in the manner in which he
did, there is no reason to deny the
assertion OF a professional bum who
worked the town few weeks ago,

OPPOSES THREE PARISHES
Attorney Sugar Makes His Position
Clear. Will Work For
Parish Division.

ATTORNEY Leon Sugar, OF Lake
Charles, who is a candidate in the
second primary for the position OF
State Senator, was in Kinder TneS-
day in the interest of his candidacy.
Mr.. Sugar stated to the Gazetteer that
he is unalterably opposed to the three
parish division plan of the sO-Called
"Parish Division Committee, and
further stated that he will use his best
endeayOr to bring about the division
of the parish upon fair and equitable
lines, and that the three parish prOpO-
sttion is manifestly unfair, unjust and
indefensible. He stated that he had
heen assured that the tbree-parish
lines as proposed by the "committee"
were merely tentative, and could and
would be changed to division on
far and equitable lines.
Mr.. Sugars signed statement fol.
lows:
II desire to state to the people Of
Calcasieu parish, whose sutrages !
am soliciting for the position of State
Senator in the second primary, that |
am in favor of the division Of Calca-
sieu parish on fair and equitable
lines, conducting to the best interests
of the parish at large, and that conse-
quently | cannot support but will op.
pose the proposed three-parish divi-
sion, as it is unfair and uni ust, and
would work hardship upon many Of
our best citizens, without any com.
pensating benefits to the parish at
large.
"My previous statement that | would
support the action of the 'Parish Di-
vision Committee' was based upon
the understanding that the three-par-
ish lines were merely tentative, and
could and would be changed to bring
about the best results to the greatest
number Of people. | hereby pledge
my best endeavors to bring about a
fair and equitable division of the par
ish, if elected, at the first session of
the incoming legislature in May,
