Middleton Warmly Greeted
In This Parish.

Hon. Fred A. Middleton opened
an active campaign for the Dis
trict Attorneyship, in st. John,
last Saturday, night when he ad-
dressed the electorate of Gary
vile. A large gathering was pre-
sent at Gray's Theatre to greet the
young attorney. Mr.. Brown,
manager of the Lyon Cypress
Companys' mill, called the meet
ing to order and introduced DR..
McGehee as chairman. Messrs.
Middleton, Gosserand, Brown,
Berthelot, Vial and Elfer occupi-
ed seats on the stage which was
artistically decorated for the oc-
casjon.
Speeches were made by Messrs.
Berthelot and Middleton in Eng
lish, Mr.. Gosserand speaking in
French.
Sheriff Berthelot took up the
charges made by Mr. Marrero
against him for making improper
use of Judge Edrington's proxy;
denied that he ever held said docu-
ment, and otherwise favorably
impressed his auditors.
Mr.. Gosserand's address in
French was welcomed-by many in
the assembly who speak and under
stand this beautiful language. The
speaker laid stress on the political
domination Of the schools of JEFF
ferson parish by the Marreros.
Mr.. Middleton was the third and
last speaker. In presenting the
candidate to the audience, Chair
man Nc Gehee declared that he
was glad of the opportunity to in
troduce something good coming
from Jefferson parish. Mr.. Mid
dleton spoke for an hour, during
the course of which he expatiated
on the deplorable conditions poll
teal existing in his parish. Hepaid
| q tribute to Sheriff Berthelot and
the administration of public af-
fairs in this parish and otherwise
favorably impressed his many ad-
mirers present. Many grasped the
candidates hands, congratulated
him and proffered him their un-
divided support.

THE GREAT BATTLE OF ARMA-
GEDDON.

Col. Roosevelt closed his speech at
the Chicago Convention on August
9Th, with the sentence, 1--WE stand al
Armageddon and battle for the
Lord"
The Caucasian has had many in
quiries for information about the
Battle. of Armageddon" We have
asked a prominent minister to pre-
pare for us statement as to his con-
ception of the meaning of the refer
ences in the Bible, especially in Rev
Citations, about the great battle OF
Armageddon, which is predicted to
occur sometime in the future, prob
ably just before the millennium, be-
tween the forces of good and evil.
The statement which the minister
has prepared and handed to US is as
follows:
THE battle of Armageddon
relates to the great world battle
that is to be fought some time
in the future between the
of Anti-Christ. 1t will doubtless
take place in the Valley of Me-
giddo, where other battles of the
Lord were fought in ancient
times.
AT some time in the future,
unknown to man, the Lord
Jesus Christ will appear in the
sky, and with the trumpet of
the archangel and the voice of
God raise from the dead the
bodies of the saints who sleep,
and change all bodies of the
righteous living into the glori-
fed state. These will then dis
appear with Him in the sky for
a season, the length of which is
not definitely known.
After their departure, there
will arise great world empire,
the capital of which will be old
Babylon rebuilt This will be
presided over by a great king,
man of wonderful ability, of
fascinating powers, who is called
in Scripture, The Anti-Christ,'
The Beast etc. He will be the
very embodiment of evil and
will be in league with Satan.
His powers will be SO great that
men will be impressed that he
is supernatural and will worship
him as god. Grew. 10; 2

ROOSEVELT INVADES NEW ENG.
LAND.

On last Friday Col. Roosevelt wen
to Providence, Rhode Island. TO make
his first speech in this campaign. i
is the worst monopoly and boss rid
den State in the Union. Ii is the
home of Aldrich, with whom Senator
Simmons voted nineteen times. The
Colonel was given by the masses o.
the people one Of the greatest ova
tons he has ever received. Hi:
speech was largely devoted to the
rotten boss machine of both parties
who are agents of the trusts.
Colonel Roosevelt said in part:
Il take peculiar pleasure in
making my first speech as nom
inee of the Progressive Party
here in Rhode Island. You have
suffered, as in my own State of
New York we have suffered,
from boss politics in the most
extreme form of development
The Progressive movement is
aimed at the rotten machines
the rotten boss system of both
parties. Only by supporting the
Progressive party can you strike
any effective blow against boss
rule and machine and ring poll
tics in the United States.
THE success of the Demo-
cratic national ticket means en-
throning in power one set of
bosses. The effort at this time
to rebuke one set of bosses by
voting for the candidate of the
other set of bosses is from it's
very nature bound to result in
mere futility.
THE differences between the
men who dominate the two par
ties are merely the differences
between great corporation attor-
neys who for the moment repre-
sent different corporations, but
who come together instantly
against any movement which is
meant to establish the people as
masters over both. To try TO
punish one set of defenders of
political and industrial privilege
by occasionally voting for the
nominee of the other set is to
play into the hands of both.
We progressives stand against
both. We propose to drive them
both from power for all time,
and to substitute for their power
the real and genuine rule of the
people"

MORE PAID ADVERTISING MAT
TER PUBLISHED AS NEWS.

The Raleigh News and Observer, in
its issue of August 18th, has pub
lished a long article, as news matter.
written by J. W. Bailey, boosting
Senator Simmons and amounting to
five hundred and thirty-eight lines.
1t will be remembered that when
Governor Kitchin complained tina,
the Raleigh News and Observer and
other papers were publishing boost.
ing articles for Senator Simmons as
news matter, and receiving pay fol
the same withiut marking them as
advertisement, that the News and OBJ.
server came out in an editorial expla.
nation and admitting that it did
charge for such articles in excess OF
two hundred lines.
Governor Kitchin came back in a
statement saying that he had no OBJ.
lection to the News and Observer OF
any other paper publishing paid mat
ter supporting his opponents, provid.
ed the same was marked as adver.
tisement. To this complaint of the
Governor there has been no explana-
ton or answer by either the News
and Observer or any other paper that
have offended in this matter.
Since that time, another long ar
ticle of five hundred and thirty-eight
lines has appeared, boosting Senator
Simmons, and is not marked as ad.
vertising matter. Therefore, after
the statement or explanation made BY
the News and Observer, we must con-
clude three hundred and thirty-eight
lines of this Simmons news matter
will be paid for at probably ten
ten cents a line.

On last Saturday. Governor
Kitchin. in a speech in Rockingham
County. declared with great heat,
that his enemies were charging that
he promised the people when he was
a candidate for Governor that If he
was elected he would use his efforts
TO put criminal trust officials in Jail.
He said he never promised TO do any
thing OF the kind. Further on. how
ever, he admitted that he did say
in his speeches that the only way TO
deal with the trusts was 10 put the
criminal trust officials in Jail instead
of prosecuting the criminal trusts on
the civil side of the docket.
It will be remembered tina: when
Governor Kitchin and the extrava-
CANT Democratic machine had run
the State so far in debt that bank
ruptcy stared them in the face, that
they began to sell bonds TO meet the
deficit. 1t will further be remember
ed that the last issue of bonds offer
ed by this Democratic administra-
ton could not be sold at par, the
price fixed by the Legislature. 1t will
also be remembered that at this juno
ture, after the Governor had called
a special session of the Legislature
TO lower the interest rate on the
bonds SO as to make them sell at par,
the great American Tobacco Com
pany came to his rescue and agreed
to take the bonds and pay for them
more than the market price, to lift
Kitchin and his Democratic machine
out of the hole. By this act Cover
nor Kitchin and his administration
mortgaged the State to the trusts
completely, if it was not securely
mortgaged before.
We can understand why it is that
Governor Kitchin feels disappointed
and aggrieved that these trusts are
not supporting him, but are showing
a preference for Senator Simmons.
However, he should remember that
Senator Simmons was apparently
most satisfactory to the trusts before
Governor Kitchin got friendly with
them.
Governor Kitchin should remem-
Der the warning which the late Sem
ator Vance gave the people of the
State about Senator Simmons. Sena-
tor Vance not only denounced Sena-
tor Simmons as being unfit to hold
any office of profit or trust from the
people, but he pointed out the dan
ger ahead to the party and to the
State if men of the low and cunning
standard of Simmons should get con-
trol OF the party. He pictured how
the party would be debauched and
how the state would suffer.
The picture which Senator Vance
drew has unfortunately become true.
Therefore, today Senator Simmons is
proper and fitting representative of
the Democratic party thus debased
and prostituted. Hence, it seems fit
ting that Governor Kitchin should
withdraw from the race for Senator
and permit Senator Simmons to be
elected as the typical representative
of the Democratic party in it's pres
ent condition.
