Il was approached as district

the civil suits, to prosecute these
parties who are charged with be-
ing irregularly registered. Buto on
examination of the law, I came
to the conclusion, and SO advised,
that there was no criminal statue
covering the cases and the only
right Of action was a civil one,
unless it would be shown to me
that Mr.. A. g. Lormand, the re-
gistrar, has committed fraud, in
which case | state | would prose

There is your pick.
For Senator for the 1915 term
you are offered three candidates
Governor ]. Y. Sanders, Con-

and Congressman Arsene P.
Pujo.
Governor Sanders represents
the regular Democracy OF the
State and the young manhood
and intellectual might of the
South and the progressiveness OF
things.
He represents something that
the South and ithe State need in
the Senate of the United States;
nervousness of action, patriotic
aggressiyeness, might of brain
and eIoquenoe, and, for Louis
lana, A DEMOCRAT.
Against this magnificent young
Louisianian, are arrayed Mr..
Robert F. Broussard and Arsene
P. Pujo, the former a repudiated
Democrat and the other a noted
corporation lawyer, both men in
league with the destructionists
of party and State good name,

After twenty years in San Quen-

to-day a free man.
Miller was dazed at what he
saw on the streets -hobble skirts,
electric phaetons, automobiles
driven by steam and electricity,
and electric street cars.
The hobble skirt more than
any other one thing surprised
him. A woman happened to get

Supreme Court Judgeship.
It was further shown that
Judge Hall had been a benefici-
airy of the so-called Ring all
of his life.
It was further shown later on,
from an undenied statement OF
Jas. B. Aswell, candidate for
Governor, that Judge H al
stands pledged to deliver unto
John M. Parker, Republican, the
patronage of the city Of New Or
leans in case Of his election to
the Governorship. This is in
ferred from the fact that Parker
required this Of AsWell if AsWel
desired the Leagues endorse
ment.
Thus the same element com
posing the Democratic Good Gov
eanment League of Louisiana
has shown on two occasions that
instead of their movement being
a holy war of reform, it is q
mercenary and hypocritlcal fight
for Office.

DISTRICT ATTORNEY
SAYS LEAGUE DID IT
Acadia and Lafayette'S Prosecutor Condemns
Attempt TO DIsfraHGhlSe Voters.
HAS TURNED TIDE IN ELECTION
And Acadia and Lafayette Are GslBg Against
the League by Coed HajOritIes..
People Ia Arms.

District Attorney Roblra, OF
Acadia and Lafayette, lays the
attempt at disfranchisement Of
white Democratic voters in AGA
dia parish directly at the door of
the Democratic Good Govern
ment League.
He says they even wanted to
have the innocent voters who
made technical errors in apply
ing for registration prosecuted
criminally, and applied to the
District Attorneys office to
have this done
District Attorney Robira says
that the action of the League has
doomed the League to defeat in
Acadia and Lafayette.
Mr.. Robira's interview, pub
lished in the New Orleans Plea
yune, says:
Il have always kept shy of
newspaper interviews, and of
taking too active a part in this
campaign, though from the very
beginning | have espoused the
cause of John T. Michel believ-
ing him the most capable man of
the three in the race for COVER
nor.
But recent events, particular
" the filing of numerous suits in
the parish Of Acadia, by the
leaders of the Good Government
League, almost on the eve Of the
election, and after the registra-
ton books had been closed, leads
me to believe that my duty as a
citizen is to do what many 9th
ers have done-to come out in
the open and make a fight fol
the Hon. John T. Michel, and
this because | see in the tactics
of his enemies an attempt to dis
franchise thousands Of worthy
citizens on mere technicalities.
THE parish of Acadia, for the
first time in it's history, will goI
for the administration; and / be-
lieve Lafayette will do likeWise
by a large majority.
"AsWell has made some gain
in both parishes, but nothing to
compare with those of Michel. II
should say the Michel gains
amount to a landslide.
THE Creole vote of southwest
is up in arms, and you
can judge from this what the re-
suit will be.
THE people realize that the
Acadia suits were brought for
purposes only, with no
patriotic desire on the part of
those bringing them to cleanse
the registration rolls. Had they
been brought earlier IN the the
campaign, when the men against
they are levelled might
nave had the right to re
there might be something
n the claim that patriotic mo-
ives alone inspired the Good
Government Leaguers.
But they were brought. as II
rave said. after the registration
BOOKS had been closed-at a time
the Good Government Lea
realized they were beaten

'raud charge inethe suits, the Of
'ellses Of the voters whom it was j
to disfranchise were pure |

TUESDA YS ELECTION.

On next Tuesday, the 23d, a
primary election will be held
throughout Louisiana for the
selection of State officers and
parish officers,
Divested of frills and the vile
ness which has characterized the
campaign on the part of the So
called Democratic Good Gov
eminent League" the issue in
the Gubernatorial race is in a
nutshell this:
John T. Michel is the candi-
date of the regular Democracy
of Louisiana.
He stands for all that Demo-
cracy and white supremacy
stands for. its glorious present
and the memories of it's turbu-
lent past.
He stands the best equipped
man for the Office in the State,
by reason Of training, honesty
and a true representative of the
people.
He stands and will carry out
one feature of his platform that
if for no other reason he should
be elected. That is the segre-
cation of taxes and revision Of
assessment, which will place the
burden of state taxation on the
railroads, telegraph companies,
and other corporations, leaving
to the parishes and municipal
ties to fix their own rate of tax
alton for the maintenance of
their own corporations. This
scheme has proved successful in
other States, and in ST. Landry
Parish will save the people over
SAL, 900.
He stands for everything that
is progressive and conducive to
the development of the State Of
Louisiana and the good of its peo-
pie.
He stands for a business adj
ministratisn by a business man.
On the other hand Judge L. E.
Hall is the nominee of 9 conyen-
ton of delegates sent to New
by politicians throughout
the State.
He is a lawyer who has held
successive judicial offices and is
now an Associate Justice of the
Court, a position which
he refuses to resign notWith-
the fact that he is run
ming for another Office. He has
never had any experience in adj
illustrative affairs, and in the
conduct Of his personal affairs it
IS admitted by himself that he
mas been a woeful failure.
He is the creature of a cotorie
If men whose success in this
election wal be a menace to the
whole structure of the Demo
party. 1t is an undisputed
act that ex-Repablicans are
in the leadership Of
lis campaign, and it is a stretch
i the Imagination to suppose
hat they are taking such a part
or the good Of the Democratic
'arty. !
He is the representative of a
lass of men whose policy past !
nd present has been one of ]
essimism and destruction, and
mere is danger in his election of J
backward change in the now !
