BOB ADV|CE'S
POSITION MADE CLEAR

The following cad appeared III
Lafat cite Advertiser on last Mon
day and explains itself:
For the benefit of my friends
and Bob Advice's many admirers
in and around the Lafayette sec
ton | wish to make my position
clear as to why [ withdrew my
horse from the Fair.
When the hour had arrived on
Wednesday evening to make the
entries for the "free for alp race,
the race director called the own
ers and agents OF horses to come
up and make their entries. They
had previously agreed among
themselves that they would MOI
enter unless Bob Advice was bar
red. This they tried TO do but
the officials would not stand for
1t. Someone then tried to smooth
things over so that the race would
go on, but | had instructed my
agent not to make any compro
mise with any one. Mr.. +. v.
MOutOn then explained that the
Association had advertised this
race several months as being one
permitting any horse to enter, and
that they could not apply any ex
ceptlOn to Bob Advice.
They then refused to enter their
horses, the race was cancelled and
the books closed.
On Thursday morning | met Mr.
RaOul Pellerin on the street coming
from the Fair Grounds, who told
me that two of the horse owners
had gone and others were talking
about going too, and that he was
afraid that the fair would have no
races. ! expressed my disappoint
ment at not being able to enter
my horse In the "free for all" but
rather than see the races cancelled
and the public disappointed after
the officials had SO energetically
laboIed to make the fair a success.
[ would be willing TO take Bob
Advice back home provided thai
they would sign the following tc
be a true statement of conditions:
LEONARD II. MESTAYER,
Owner of Bob Advice.
Lafayette, La Oct. 8, 1914
We, the undersigned, hereby &C
knowledge that the free for all
race scheduled for today at the
Lafayette Parish Fair, failed to
take place, because Bob Advice
was feared as the Champion by
owners of other horses, who refus
ed to enter their horses if Bob
Advice was entered.

Senator Rristow who wa interviewed in Washington the other
day took occasion @ predict that the organization OF the Progressive
party would not succeed. The dul+witcd senator seem to have
entirely overlooked the Iact that it has already succeeded.

In the last presidential campaign the Progressive party was a

old party and did yolhan service in routing it. 1t was the ally OF
the Democratic rarty in that great triumph OF human rights and no

The credit due these p triotic men who broke the party shackles
and fought as ic mon, should not be withheld in This hour Of

If Senator Rristow has overlooked the fact that the Progress
