The people have by their voice

no mistake.
The Clarion thought another

It knows how, do everything in
its power to help Judge Hall give
the people and the State a good
administration.
The fact that it opposed his
election will at no time have
weight with this paper in its
criticism of the acts Of Judge
Hall. !,
If he comes up to the standard
to be expected from a man who
has promised the people SO much,
the Clarion will laud him.
If on the other hand he should
fall short, The Clarion will take
him to task.
In every instance it will be our
endeayor to treat our Governor
fairly and squarely.

SOUTHERN RICE "
ASSOCIATIONS.

The Clarion is glad to learn
from dispatches appearing IN
this issue that the Southern Rice
Growers Association is pushing
It's work of activity for the COM
ing season, and that it proposes
organizing in st. Landry Parish,
for which purpose a series OF
meetings will be held throughout
the parish at dates to be named.
The Southern Rice Growers
Association proved Of great value
to rice planters last season, and
fully demonstrated its necessity
as a working agency in compe-
tition to the organizations which
have for their purpose the low
ering of prices on rough rice
in other words, the interests, :
which to-day have such q firm
hold on American farm products
of all kinds.
The Association is particularly
needed in st. Landry Parish, for
this parish is destined in the
near future to take front place
as a rice producing section. The
completion of the Schell canal
will work this end beyond a
doubt.
When the dates for the meet
ings of the Southern Rice Grow
ers' Association are announced it
is hoped that the people Of St.
Landoy Parish will show such
interest in the purposes Of the
Association as will insure its or
ganization here and its active
