TO THE VOTERS Of WEST
FE[|C|ANA PARISH:

Having announced my candidacy as
delegate to represent West Feliciana
Parish in the Constitutional Conven-
ton, called to meet in Baton Rouge on
Nov. 10th, take this means of inform
| ing the voters of the parish that am
DESTROYS of their support, and will ap-
preciate all assistance rendered me in
my race for the honor.
My reason for making the race, is
that desired to see West Feliciana's
| vote in the Convention recorded in
favor of economy and expediency, and
| / believe my record In public matters
| in this State in the last several years
lis guarantee that ! may be depended
upon to do the right thing. /, have
not entered the race in the hope that
this honor will be but stepping stone
to something higher, as have no de-
sire for personal gain in politics.
II elected to represent this parish In
the Convention, expect to stay on the
| Job and vote straight,
The time before the primary is so
short that may not get to see each
voter in person. However, / desire the
support OF all and will endeavor to
prove that any confidence reposed in
Ime will not be misplaced.

length of time and the amount of work
involved. That his fixing of the rate
as prescribed by law would be subject
in all events to the approval of the
Court.
AS for the matter of appointment Of
the special agent, the time limit for
objection as fixed by law, 30 days, had
expired. that Capt. o. B. Steele was
entirely competent and he did not
propose to make any change, either
as regards him or the attorney. Meth
er could he therefore in the circum-
stances take note of any of the minor
suggestions offered.
He said that only about $4,000 had
been collected to date and this was de-
posted in the Bank of Baton Rouge
drawing 2k per cent interest. Prop
erty was in course of sale but no 9th
er payments had been made.
Depositors, Mr.. Young said, could
not expect any dividend under six
months, as legal notice of all claims
against the bank had to be advertised
for ninety days.
The complaint that the bookkeeper
had refused to post the passbooks
was not sustained by the Examiner,
as the former was carrying out in
structions with regard to the regular
procedure of business, 1.-Two book
keepers, it is true, were employed at
present, but this was only temporari-
ly, and later, Mr.. Young said, one
would suffice.
