THE REASON THEREFOR.

Mr.. Amos Ponder, the $1,000 game war;
den attorney of the present administration,
is now making public addresses in the
State in the interest of Mr.. Michel's cam
didacy for Governor. Recently at Eros
he lauded Mr.. Michel's peculiar fitness for
this high office, his character and business
ability to the skies, at the same time be-
lifting the policies of Judge Hall and the
Democratic Good Government League.
Eros is in Jackson Parish and, near Mon
roe, Judge Halls homeland, in addition
to this. Mr.. Ponder is said to be practically
a stranger to the Judge. So the inference
is that Mr.. Ponder is merely grinding his
ak, or turning the stone for the ringsters
by way of showing his gratitude for past
patronage.
Just such acts as this, the abuse of the
appointive power by Mr.. Sanders and his
very evident purpose in the past to use
patronage to its fullest capacity as step
ping stone, not only for himself but to
barter, has turned many against the game
commission. We are persuaded that the
sportsmen Of our State, and all free think
ing people for that matter, believe strongly
in game protection and propagation, and
the conservation of all our natural resour-
ces, but the one thing more than another
that has turned them against it is the infu
sion of politics into the plan. Mr.. Sanders
just had to build up his fences as he went
apparent in Mr.. Ponders position of to-
day on the Gubernatorial question. There
are many others in our State constant to
the welfare of the ring and its bosses on
account of such patronage.

We notice that no one offers to bet thai
Mr.. Aswell will even be in the second race.
But surely the teachers of our State who
contributed one dollar per to the Aswel
campaign fund, as we'll as himself, must
think that he is in the race. Poor teach
ers! They'll yet need that coin for rubber
shoes and more wraps when the great frost
steals over them and their elf-styled
peoples candidate.''

Those knowing ones who so freely
assaled Judge Halls character remind us
of the goat that wore himself to FRAGILE
butting hickory block suspended by a
rope from the limb of tree. The block
always swung back to receive another
blowout unlike the goat in this story re-
NAMED unframed from the blows. The
goat, in its frenzy, cracked its poor skull
and perhaps its brain.

Had it Ever Occurred to You?

Had it ever occurred to you that you
had as we'll try to be a successful physician
without attending a medical school, or a
successful lawyer without attending law
school, or a successful minister without
attending theological school, as to try to
be successful banker or merchant or
business man of any kind without first get
ting practical business training? If you
wanted to make first class doctor, lawyer
or minister, you would attend university
with reputation. Why not use the same
good judgment in selecting a business
school in which to secure your training?
The Tyler Commercial College of Tyler,
Texas, is the business university of the
South. 1t enrolls more students annually
for bookkeeping, business training, short
hand, typewriting, telegraphy and station
work than any other similar school in
America. It's students have come from
thirty-six different States; it's graduates
are holding the very best of positions in
the leading cities of the United States.
If you will spend 500 for tuition, board
and books for course of shorthand and
typewriting or S11O for bookkeeping and
business training, or S115 for biography
and station work, or better still, spend SITS
AN SoA1PiSSO 0hy wv VI IucS0 COuFS6S,
you will have made the best investment of
your life. What young man or woman
with grit and determination cannot raise
this amount? Hundreds of students who
borrowed every cent of the money to attend
our school have found it the best venture
OF their lives. They were soon able to pay
back the borrowed money, continue hold
ing a job, or go into business for them
selves, with assurance of success. If you
always remain where you are you will
always be what you are. More than one
hundred new students will enroll before
this month closes. Why not you be among
the number? You can enter any day and
take up the work.

If you wish to vote with the people and
for the candidate of the people you are for
Judge Hall; but if you are for Michel you
are for the bosses and the ring of the city.
But surely you do not wish to see four
more years of ring rule and corruption in
our State. Let US make an effort to nomi-
nate Judge Hall in the first primary, for if
there is second with himself and Mr..
Michel as the two candidates the latter's
chances will be greatly augmented by
reason of the fact that the vote in the
second primary will be much smaller than
that in the first. At any rate don't burn
your vote by casting it for Mr.. Aswell
who isn't properly in the race and never
was. One vote may go a long ways.
Cast it for the man who stands ior your
interests and is in no sense candidate of
any ring, clique or machine. Vote for
Judge Hall!

FORECASTTNG TIE PRIMARY VOTE.

The total number of registered voters in
New Orleans last Saturday was 40 1851, as
against ,211 for 1908, the increase being
7,14O. The registration list is being thor
oughly purged and up to that time 1851
fraudulent registrations had been dropped
from the list, and the Times Democrat says
there are about 1900 yet to be erased.
These are represented as hoboes and others
who have crept back on the registration
at the substations in the several wards
after having had their names erased at the
central office. Four years ago the total
vote in the city was 80, 119. 1t is estimated
that greater percentage of the total reg
istration will be polled in the coming pri-
mary than that of four years ago, or that
the total vote will be upwards of 5000.
1t is estimated that upwards of 5000 of
the bona file voters of the city to register
during the last few days the books were
open to registration were Hall men. This
for the reason that the ringsters always see
that their vote is registered promptly. It
is known that big vote will be polIed in
the city because of the great majority that
the parishes will give Judge Hall. In
previous primaries those opposed to the
ring have been Indifferent in the matter of
registering and voting because their
chances to defeat the ring were slim and
this fact was we'll known. However,
things look very different now, and with
the encouragement that the city has had
from the parishes it would be little wonder
if Judge Hall polled even as large vote
there as Mr.. Michel himself.

Honestly, friend, between you and me,
it is real laughable to review the many
claims made from day to day by the
Michel and Aswell organs of "growing
popularity" ''undived support 'will
lead in forty eleven parishes" etc. Yes,
sir, it is to laugh.
