Without a vision the people per-
ish'' is very true 1t was the vision of
religious liberty
The Vision of that brought the
Woodrow Wilson. Pilgrims across
the Atlantic. 1t
was the vision of a land of freedom
and political equality that inspired
the soldiers of Washington at Valley
Forge and led them to victory at
, yorktown. The vision of a united
country sustained the union forces
throughout the civil war.
1t is the view of Woodrow Wilson
that the party of which he is now the
standard bearer would not exist had it
not been sustained by a vision. In
his speech last week at Cleveland the
governor laid bare his political soul
I'VE have been waiting for your at
tention for long time: now will you
be kind enough to listen? Will you
be kind enough to realise what our
ideals are? Will YOU be kind enough
to open your eyes to the vision which
has led us on through dark days for
a whole generation?"
For We would not have carrie
this burden of exile if we had not seen
a vision. We could have traded; we
could have got into the game we
could have surrendered and made
terms: we could have played the role
of patrons to the men who wanted to
dominate the interest of the country
and here and there gentlemen who
pretended to be democrats did make
those arrangements. l could mention
sCme Of them; | have known them.
They couldn't stand the privation.
There was too little in it. You never
can stand it unless you have some i'm

of those visions of the spirit where a

fruits Of imagination-those invisible
things of the spirit which are the on

without fainting.

SIMPLY ABUSED

Throughout the State, we note
where Grand Jurles are condem-
ming the abuse Of some of the Jus.
tices of the Peace for taking any
and every case that comes up be-
fore them, regardless of the fact
that they are incurring unnecas-
sary expenses to the parish.
"In one parish ninety-four cas-
es were sent to the Grand Jury,
out Of which fifty-four were
thrown out Of court.
"Some Of our Magistrates seem
to think it is an honor to send az
many as they can to Court in or.
der that they be singled out as
good Judges.
"Some of these Officers do not
live up to their titles and are
brooders Of troubles instead Of
pacifiers.
"On the coming day Of JAN
uary next is the day to select men
who are going to do their duty ac-
cording to law, and reject those
who convene court simply to act
as Judge regardless of costs to
our parish. '-Lafourche Leader.

While The Daily Times is op-
posing the candidacy of DR.. James
B. Aswell for Governor and sup
porting Hon. John T. Michel, it
can not but condemn the attempts
made by certain Of the Doctors
political enemies to misrepresent
him before the voters. The Daily
Times believes that both DR.. As
well and Judge Hall will be beat
en- in the first primary by Mr.. Mi
chel and that the Natchitoches
gentleman stands but small chance
of figuring in the race after Jan.
%, but should he gain unlocked
for support and be selected as
the Democratic candidate for gov
ernor the people of Louisiana
would, we feel safe in saying,
have no great cause to regret it
in the future. DR.. Aswell is 4

and who has been of great service
to his state and to its people. Any
attempt to misrepresent him in
the present campaign will only re-
act upon those who are guilty Of

MICHEL IN OUACHITA
PARISH.

Now that Hon. John T. Michel
has appeared before the people
OF this parish and addressed them
on the issues of the campaign,
The News-Star will give it's estu-
mate of the strength of the three
gubernatorial candidates in Qua
, chlta parish. the adopted home Of
Candidate Hall. This estimate is
, based upon a knowledge Of po-
lltical alignments in Ouachita and
the sentiment of many of the
foremost citizens. A desperate
effort has been made to create the
impression abroad that Candidate
Hall and "Castro" Gueydan
would sweep Ouathita parish, en-
tirely eliminating John T. Michel.
This "claim" is one of the alb
surdities of the campaign, and is
only made by the sanity goo COOS
in order to help bolster up a
cause that was doomed from the
very minute John M. Parker and
Don Caffrey assumed control.
That Candidate Hall cannot, by
any means, carry Ouachita parish
by a majority is as certain as any
thing in the future can be. He
will be extremely lucky if he man.
ages to obtain a small plurality.
In round numbers, there are
2500 registered voters in Ouachita
parish. If 80 per cent of these
participate in the January pri~
mary, it means about 1000 votes.
If this number is east, we believe
it will stand as follows: DR..
Aswell, $50; Hon. John T. Michel,
700. and Candidate Hall $50. If
only 1900 votes are cast it will be
about like this. Aswell, 400; Mi
chel CTS, Hall 725. If less than
100 votes are cast Michel will |
receive 600, no matter what the !
others receive. We say this ad-
visedly. The solid citizens be-
hind the candidacy of John r.
Michel in Monroe, West Monroe
and the remainder Of the parish |
of Ouachita are men who will vote |
and work earnestly and zealously.
They are not merely "fair wealth
er" Democrats. but are the class

A BATCH OF FLOWING HINTS

If deep plowing or subSoiling is
to be done, the fall of the year
is the best time in so far as the
effects on the land are concerned.
The subsoil is seldom dry enough
to make subsoil plowing satisfac-
tory except in the fall of the
year. At this time the clay sub
soil will crumble and break up in
small lumps the size of marbles.
This is + IDEAL condition of the
subsoil fo. Dteaking. To sub
soil in the spring Or early sum-
mer.. when it is wet is of doubt
full value, and sometimes does
much actual harm.
The same facts also largely ap.
ply to deep plowiny, that is, to
plowing that is deeper than the
land has been previously broken.
The objection to deep plowing in
the fall is that if winter growing
crops are sown stand is difficult
to obtain unless rains fall at the
right time. This can only be
overcome by early breaking and
frequent narrowing before the
seeds are sown
Another objection to deep
plowing Or subsoiling in the fall
is, that the ground is so hard that
it breaks up cloddy and too much
team force is required to do the
work. The first difficulty can be
overcome to some extent by disk
ing the land before it is plowed,
and then narrowing or disking the
same day after it is plowed.
The necessity for more team
force can not be avoided. 1t re-
quires more teams to plow hard
ground, but it requires more team
force than we possess to do good
blowing at any time and we may
as well begin to shape our plans
Tor securing the needed increase
in work stockholm in numbers
and weight.
The disk plow will break hard
land better tahn the moldboard
plow, but it requires force to pull
it. There is no way Of avoiding
this. We don't need plows that
run light; for no one ever saw a |
plow do good work that ran light. |
The plow that does what should
be expected of a plow is certain |
to pull hard and require good
team force to handle it.
Don't plow deep or subsoil !
when the soil that has not been
broken befroe does not crumble.
