retire. Like other factions or par
ties that hold the jobs and the pow
er a long time, this dominant ele-
ment in Louisiana became objection
able to the people and was given a
black eye. The good government
league hopes to blacken the other eye
at the forthcoming municipal election
in New Orleans.
1t is OF interest to know that the
leader of the good government or
ganization, John NJ. Parker, was one
of Colonel Roosevelt's rough riders.
John T. Michel was the candidate
of the old organization for governor.
Luther E. Hall licked him to fraz-

Sanders appointed him to a minor as

the great glee of the victors.
Governor Sanders himself ran for
the United States senate, but was
beaten by Congressman Robert
Broussard, in everything but name.
Louisiana raises sugar and cotton,

The democratic national commit

There is a little sentiment for Har-

These people were ticketed for
western Minnesota, NORTH and South

Washington and western Canada. The
first four days of April showed a
greater average per day in the people
still moving than any day during
March. The reduced passenger and

are moving continue until April Is
and officials of the railroads expect
almost as many people to pass through
st. Paul and Minneapolis during the
next two weeks as during the month
of March.
The moveables e coming from all
sections of the United States. It is
significant thing that the trains of
the Great Northern and the Northern
Pacific which start from St. Paul
show the greatest increase in the
number of colonists carried. The
trains from Chicago do not show such
an increase. This indicates that PEG.
pie from the mic lie west are the ones
who are moving and not the down

The movement of colonists is said
by railroad officials to be greater than
ever this year, due to the northwest

out the country and particularly to
the efforts being made by these
states to show the farmers of the mid.

DIDN'T GET

WILD ANIMAL PHOTOGRAPHY
REQUIRES ALERTNESS AND
SKILL. LOCAL CAMERA MAN
ALMOST COT SNAPSHOT OF
DEER IN NATIVE HAUNTS-BUT
NOT QUITE.

There is fascination in securing
photographs of wild animals in the
native haunts. Hunting with the
camera is even more exciting sport
than hunting with firearms, and there
is less danger OF extinction Of game
There is a distinct pleasure in prow[
ing through the woods with all the
senses alert to everything that Is
going on about you. Pushing through
dense underbrush, entagling yourself
from invisible vines and hanging
creepers is sometimes exasperatig but
it is part of the game, and the re-
suit is worth the hardships.
Animal photographers are rare.
There are comparatively few men that
are capable OF running down game
in it's native home and securing good
snapshots of it. Bismarck has one
camera hunter, but his first attempt
at wild animal photography was de-
void of results.
AL Stratum is a camera fiend. He
takes some fine snapshots Of events
around the city and he and his CAM
era are inseparable. During the re-

around sizing up the situation, when
he heard noise in the underbrusl.
Looking around he saw handsome

close he could almost touch him. Had
A! had his camera in hand he could
have secured splendid picture. AS
it was the camera was on the tripod
some few feet away and before he
could reach it the deer had passed
out of sight. So AIS first chance at
animal photography vanished. He

At any rate he will be more on the
