"Our treatment could not have been
delighted with France We are glad
to have met the Frenchnen and Eng
lishmen on their own stamping
grounds and hope to give them all they
are looking for when they come here
next month for our championship.
"Yes, Vardon, Ray and Reid are com
ing from England, while Arnaud Mas

come along. We surely will have to
60 some to keep the title In America,
but guess we're equal to It.
IT have no regrets nor excuses" con.
tinued Smith I'VE had a glorious
time and were treated like princes.
We were beaten at La Boulie by golf
ers who knew the ground, and they
simply putted like fiends. The criti-
cistn sent to America of the links there
was true to the extent that the man
who pulls and slices can get away with

The Louisiana Democracy.

Is the attitude Of the Louisiana
Democracy III accord with the We'll
defined prononncemenls ol the
rartv. which il pledged 10 tarli1 re
form?
Is ii deniablr That tie policy OF
the Democratic party III HE Natlon
is to relieve Tho masses from the
burdens arising from projected i'll
dustrics?
In opposition to this policy and in
alignment with the Republicans arc
Senators Rans,lell and Thornton Of
Louisiana.
Are these senator's the represen-
tatives Of the Louisiana Democracy,
or are they the allies OF The sugar
industry?
The unqualified and enthusiastic
endorsement Of Senators Ransdcll
and Thornton at the gathering held
all New Iberia. where nlne-lenths 81
the attendants are growers Of cane
and makers Of sugar, is significant
This endorsement is as q chal-
! lenge TO the Democracy OF Louis
lana, whose many representatives at
the rally at huston OH July dis
approved The action Of Tile Louis
lana senator's, III their opposition to
the Underwood Democratic tariff
bill which offers no protection To-
sugar.
The alignment as proclaimed at
New Iberia is sugar protection
against the long cherished creed Or
the Democracy. as cnunciated by
jefferson. Jackson and Tilden and
by Woodrow Wilson and Bryan and
The leaders Ut The party whose
struggle is directed tn The cmanci-
patton ol the masses from the
clutches of selfish, interests and
greed. .
In This alignment The Democracy
of Louisiana will mol hesitate. In
deed the Democracy Of Louisiana
has never sWcrved in It's, allegiance,
nor can it be seduced now through
the demands of sugar harons, who,
perhaps, would have no compunc-
tion OF conscience If Democracy
would be overwhelmed in the pro-
lection Of sugar.
From Our view the parting Of the
ways is not far distant.
The Democracy of Louisiana can
not and will not stand betrayed. The
men. living. who breasted The storm
of reconstruction; tie men who re
deemed the Stale from the political
adyenturers and spoilers who have.
maintained the rule OF intelligence
and white supremacy, will not fail
to exact from tho Louisiana sen-
ators an accounting Of their action,
and il they should discredit the
] Democracy by voting with the Re
publicans for The protection Of SUI
gar, they will be invited to resign,
hut should they persist ii holding
their seats they will then be. elassed
with the Republicans as protection
lists.
There can be no compromise on
an issue which is vital To the DEM
ocracy The political alignment in
Louisiana must be distinct. A Dem
5oerat must be Democrat, loyal and
true TO his party. He can not be
sugar Democrat or some other kind
zof 4 Democrat because he has some
Interest for which he demands pro-
steetion. II he IL not i Democrat III

OF i1s Significance, measured by the
purity creed, he should join some

Then the entertainer addresses the
audience and requests them to think of

Is to add and then to divide the rc

Lawn Bowls.

Each player is provided with two
balls gayly colored, q little larger than

is first thrown to the end of the lawn.
The players who stand at this end aim
to send their balls so they may lie as
close to the white ball as possible.
Sides and colors are chosen. The side
whose balls are nearest to the white
ball counts one point for each ball 80
placed. Seven, fourteen or twenty one
makes a game, as agreed upon before
beginning.
The art of bowling in this play con-
sists in knocking away the opponents
balls from their positions near the
jack or In striking the Jack ITSELF
from among them; also in bowling
nearer than any other without dis
tufbing ones own balls.
