The resolutions presented by Faith

The last number OF the program
was the report of the committee on

TangipaIsoa Parish.

Amite City, Feb. 27.-With but {
few boxes yet to be heard from
which could not change the result
Sheriff John Saal, who has held thai
position for twelve years, was ct las!
defeated for denomination By John
A. Ballard. Mr.. Ballard carried near.
ly every ward in the parish The
second ward probably will give Mr..
Saal very small majority.
Mr.. Saaps defeat was hastene
when his nephew, F. E. Delnonde,
who has many friends in this section,
withdrew from the race for assessor
in favor of w. l. Kent. Saals hand
was seen in this, much Indignation
was aroused, and it is said the peo-
pie are going to ask for a specia!
election and nominate an iniepend-
ent candidate against MIR. Kent.
They showed their dislike for hin,
to-day, as there were many blank
ballots. Saal turned this trick, it is
said, to get the support of the Kent
faction
In the first primary Mr. Delhonde
led Mr.. Kent by one vote, but he un-
doubtedly would have gotten nearly
twice as many votes as Mr.. Kent had
not his uncle caused hin, to with
draw. Saal is ring man, enc Of
the State machine leaders. His fail
ure to arrest Garfield Kinchen was
used against him in the campaign,
as was the bad financial condition of
the parish.
The vote for sheriff compiled last
night, with the exception Of the few
boxes not heard from, gives Saal
635 and Ballard 821. The missing
boxes will not change the result, and
it is thought Mr.. Ballard will have
a majority of 800 votes when they
all are counted.
In the race for Representative, H.
p. McLendon, the Good Government
Leagues choice, and George Booth,
Of Hammond, are running very close,
with the former 6 little in the lead.

INDEPENDENT TO RUN.
Kent Will be Opposed and Perhaps
Beaten at Election.

Amite, La, Feb. 2S.-The pri-
mary election in this parish resulte
| in the following nominations:
For sheriff, J. A. Ballard; Repre-
sentative, II. P. McClendon, Good
Government League); coroner, DR..
Glen j. Smith; treasurer, F. c. Weist.
It is practically certain there will
| be an independent out for assessor,
and the best informed people predict
that Kent will be badly beaten, the
reason for this opinion being that
many of the voters refused to vote
for him, holding that he is not NOR
ally entitled to the nomination, hay-
ling received less than one-fourth OF
the votes cast.
The race for Representative is
very close, only thirteen votes differ
lence between McClendon and Boos.
cClendOn was the Good Government
candidate, but he was suffered by the
prevailing impression that he was
aligned with the Saal forces, caus-
ing a great many of the Ballard peo-
pie, who were supporters of Gov.
Hall, to vote for Boos, who had not
expressed himself either on the State
fight or the parish.

II, Lonesome American millionaire.

The Lonesome American Millionaire.
An English critic Of American traits.
writing in the Metropolitan Magazine.
says: In America the lot of the rich
man Is not very happy one. He has
very little to spend his money on In
England you might have an income Of
a hundred thousand pounds year and
still might possibly feel the want Of
money, because the means OF spending
money In England are almost uniim-,
ated. In America man who had four
or five feudal establishments, with
great households of servants and de-
pendents attached to each, steam
yacht, a racing stable and a stud Of
motor cars would be an isolated. lone
~ and unoccupied man. There would
be no one to play with him. He might
possess all these things, but he could
not do anything with them. They do
not belong to any recognized life In
the country, whereas in England the
man who Is born to such possessions
finds a whole society of other people
also born to them whose life is spent
in administering and using them. quite
often with grave sense of duty. self
sacrifice and public service which is
beyond the comprehension of any but
the most intelligent Americans. simply
because it is beyond their experience"

Restore Faded and Gray Hair to Ma

Removed. 555 n

Z ~
There is nothing new about the
idea of using sage for restoring the
color of the hair. Our great-grand-
mothers kept their locks soft, dark
and glossy by using sage tea.''
Whenever their hair fell out or took
on a dull, faded or streaked appear
ance they made brew of sage leaves
and applied it to their hair, with
wonderfully beneficial effect.
Nowadays we don't have to resort
to old-time, tiresome methods of
gathering the herbs and making the
tea. This is done by skillful chem
lists better than we could do it our
selves, and all we have to do is to
call for the ready-made product. Wy
eth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Rem
edy, containing sage in the proper
strength, with the addition Of sui
phur, another old-time scalp remedy.
The manufacturers Of this remedy
authorize druggists to sell 1t under
guarantee that the money will be re-
funded if it fails to do exactly as rep
resented.
Don't neglect your hair. Get a
bottle of Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur

few days use.
This preparation is offered to the
public at fifty cents a bottle, and is

4 BIG YEAR BEGINS.

More than ordinary events are
due to be chronicled in the year just
beginning. -. .-
In Minnesota state campaign of
unusual interest is in store: A re-
publican governor seeks a third
term and, although sharply and
more frequently criticised than his
predecessors, appears to lead in the
race for denomination although the
lieutenant governor looms as for
midable candidate. .... 49,
In national affairs a condition ap-
pears which has not existed for
years.
Here are some of the questions be-
ing asked on the threshold of the
coming political battle:
Will President Taft be nominated
for second term?
Has LaFollette good fighting
chance for the Republican nominal
ton? &
Can Woodrow Wilson, with his
progressive platform, get the demo-
cratic nomination?
Or will it be Governor Judson Har-
mon and the conservative branch OF
the party take up the burdens of the
democrats?
Is 1912 to be democratic year?
What will the platforms be?
Not since James G. Blaine was an
unsuccessful candidate against Grow
err Cleveland has political campaign
developed so much interest nor has
there been so much doubt as to the
outcome.

? what he believes to be right, haa
