Whitecastle's bitter political con
test for municipal offices terminated
Tuesday in the election of Il. S. Bait
as mayor over the incumbent, Gus
WE'LL, by majority of three votes.
Mr.. WE'LL has made one of the most
progressive mayors Whitecastle has
ever had, and some regret is ex-
pressed that he was not continued in
office. Mr.. Bait is a successful mer-
chant long identified with the towns
progress, and will doubtless make
a most capable official. With Mr..
Bait the following councilmen were
elected: Lee Joseph, Luke Babin,
George Adams, Ed. Barbay and H.
Copet.

TRUSTING IN HIM.

UsI they have had the fullest confidence most
complete approval of his dealing with Mexico
ing the past the majority OF the American people
today standing Loyalty by President Wilson in the drastic
he taking force the Huerta regime respect the
American government
The people would trust him fully in a program as
they have trusted hun IN peace program.
The Sentinel in with the American masses believes
that Woodrow Wilson has been right throughout his dealings with
Mexico.
We voice the sentiments expressed in the opening
OF powerful editorial appearing Yesterday great daily paper
which did not support Wilson for president and which IS not
with hinl on many policies, being Roosevelt paper:
War with Mexico long deferred seems to be ineva-
Bile Never has nations executive faced the possibility of great
conflict sobery Never in the history wars has gov
ement sought meet its responsibilities honorab and at
the same time to avoid violence Never the history of states
craft has considered the war with such clear
vision and such understanding of its meaning for all the people
During his thirteen months office Woodrow Wilson has
been peacemaker international ethics The ned States
the sight of all has stood by honor and fair dealing
All know that the decision which the president may be
driven finally by the rgor of circumstances has nuenc
ed the slightest degree by the of oily dollars
vested in Mexico They will know that William Randolph
iearsts hdeo shriek for protect his supou estates
have avaed nothing They will that secret LOBBYISTS with
their attempts selfish ntermedng have not been able
