For District Judge.
To the Democratic Voters of Rdpides
and Grant Parishes:

To the Democratic Voters Of Rapides
and Grant Parishes:
The Legislature, just adjourned, has
submitted an amendment 10 our State
Constitution to create an additional
Judge for this district, SO as to give
kapides and Grant parishes two judges
instead of one. The amendment, to
become law and thus create the Office,
must receive a majority vote all over
the State in the general election in
November. think it premature, at
this time, to announce myself formally
as a candidate for an Office not yet ere
ated, or to make an aggressive cam
paign in an election which may never
be held.
If. however. the people create the
extra judgeship for this district, now
announce to my Democratic friends
and the voters of Rapides and Grant
parishes that shall be candidate for
the nomination for the extra judgeship
by the Democratic party, and will an
nounce my name formally as soon as
the Office is created. Until this hap
pens, respectfully request my friends
before making any pledges to consider
the fact that shall be in the race.
Respectfully yours,
JAS. ANDREWS.

A Fine Array of Home T,ient.

The examination of white ap-
plicants for certificates to teach
in the public schools of Grant
parish is in progress as we go to
press. Eighteen applicants, an
unusually large number, are pres
Fifteen young ladies and
three young gentlemen. Another
encouraging feature of the ex-
animation is that all of the ap-
plicants are home-raised talent,
pupils of Grant parish schools,
except one young man. and he
comes from our neigbboring par.
ish of Natchitoches, just across
Red river.

Judge E. G. Hunters Candidacy.

In our announcement column
will be found the name of Judge
E. G. Hunter, who is an aspirant
for the additional judgeship to
be created by constitutional
amendment in this district.
Judge Hunter is one of the best
known lawyers in central Louisi-
ana, and is personally known
perhaps to a majority of the vot-
ers of Grant parish. He has
been closely identified with the
people of Grant parish from the
days of Reconstruction until the
present. He started the practice
of law at the age of 81 at Colfax
forty-one years ago., and since
that time his life has been an
open book to all of our people.
He served us for three terms
as district attorney, and for four
years he was Judge in the adjoin-
ing district, at the time Grant
was associated in judicial dis
trict with VIM and other par
ishes. Judge Hunter has many
friends in Grant who will give
him a strong support. He is
we'll qualified for the position in
ability and practical experience,
and if elected can be counted or
to discharge his duty with faith
fulness and prompt and earnest
efficiency.

The Election of School Board Members.
Under the law the members of
the parish board of school direc-
tors have been elected to serve
for two, four and six years. and
in this way preserve a board with
an overlapping membership. The
Grant parish board at its organi-
cation segregated the parish in
to three divisions two years ago,
drew lots for the short, inter-
mediate and long terms, and the
result was a follows:
Short term Wards A and 6, E.
A. Wall and Gus St. Andre, to
serve two years, terms expiring
Jan. /, 1915.
intermediate Wards 8,
5 and z, l. ]. Rhinehart, M. A.
Walker and M. E. Jackson, terms
expiring Jan. 1, 1917.
Long Wards l and 2, j.
H. McNeely and A. w. Stewart,
terms expiring Jan. 1, 1919.
Hereafter every two years the
members elected will be for full
terms of six years, so the over
tapping terms will be preserved
| in regular order. Messrs. Wal
and st. Andre, or their success
sors, will therefore be elected
for a term of six years.

Europe Threatened With Big War.


1t appears quite probable that
all Europe will soon be engaged
in general war. Austria has
made certain humiliating de-
mands upon Servia, which the
latter resents with promptness
and decision. Austria has As
600, 600 population and Servia less
than 1000, 600. and yet with this
disparity of eleven to one in num-
bers the little nation bravely de-
cides to go to war rather than
suffer indignity and humiliation.
Russia, England, Germany, Italy
and France are all likely to be
mixed up in the fight if it is not
settled soon. Wheat and pro-
visions have jumped to high
figures, and stocks and securi-
ties have sunk correspondingly
low, and the world stands with
bated breath to watch the out
come, which may change the
whole map of Europe. Our lit.
tie fracas with Mexico has dwin-
died into a settlement by media
ton, and all eyes are now turned
across the Atlantic.

The only error we have been able to
locate in the above very interesting
excerpt from the Star-Telegram is that
norton which declares that "the peo-
pie. or at least considerable part OF
the people" Of Louisiana, are propos-
ing to swap representative government
for commission oIigarchy. As mat
ter of fact, there are not enough peo-
pie of Louisiana thinking about the
proposition to make it necessary to
count. Such a proposition was intro
duced in the Legislature. and the MEM
burs of the assembly played with 1t
somewhat probably just as matter
of courtesy to the introducer. But the
matter has never been seriously con-
sidered by the people of this State
has never even been discussed outside
the capitol walls. As an experiment,
the commission government for States
might prove interesting. but Louisiana
is hardly the one, out of the forty
eight States of the Union, to be first
to try such an innovation. Louisiana
will wait until some other States have
tried il out, and then maybe Louisiana
will fall in line, And then, again, may
be Louisiana won't t. Shreveport Jour.

Letter from Judge Blackman.

Alexandra, La, July q. 1914.
Editor Collar Chronicle:
In your last issue / see that
our friend Mr.. R. M. Dunn has
resigned his position as police
juror on account of some irregu7
larity in the assessment valua-
ton of his property. | am sorry
that anything of this kind occur
red. The district attorney is not
to blame, for the reason that
there were quite a number OF
people who called his attention
to the fact that there were some
of the police jurors that were in
eligible in not having the neces-
sary property valuation of $3.50
as the law requires.
Mr.. Dunn has made a good
member of the police. jury, and
was sorry when he did not
agree with me about the lights
in the court house.. For over
twenty years / have been holding
court without good lights, and
before these lights were placed
/ held court sometimes at night,
and couldn 't5see the faces of the
jury when / charged them, and
could not even see to the back OF
the court room. / called the at
tention. # several individual
members If the police jury about
necessity Of the lights, and founc
that it was necessary for me t.
4 order the sheriff to place thu
lights in the court house, so al
to allow me to hold court at night
which ha, done since the cour
room has been lighted up. Three
nights holding court from sever
! until ten paid for the lights il
the criminal term.
/ hope the constituency of my
friend Mr.. r. M. Dunn will re
, turn him, as he has made such ;
good member. Yours truly,

WOUNDS HEALED !
IN SHORT PERIOD

London, Sept. 2s--The rapidity with
which the wounds of soldiers are heal
ed. and the practical absence of blood
poisoning cases, has been a surprise in
view Of the deadly effectiveness" Of
the modern army weapons.
"The antiseptic treatment of
wounds almost Immediately after
their infiiction has a great deal to do
with the fact that cures are effected
in such q short time as has been dem
onstrated in the London hospitals" !"
said one of the physicians in attend
ance upon the wounded British SOL
diers. -.
while surgery has made wonder
full strides in the last decade. the re-
suits might have been different were
1t not that the antiseptic preventive
measures have been applied with the
utmost efficiency.
Another very important reason
lies in the fact that the bullet fred
from a modern rifle travels with such
velocity as to obviate the danger of a
ragged wound, and unless vital or
gan lies in the path Of 1t, the recovery
presents no difficult problem,

SERV|ANS Brave:
POOR MARKSNEN
Austrian Officers are Marks
of Cracks Who Conceal
Selves in Trees.

Rotterdam. Sept. 2s.-An Austrian
captain, wounded in the battle of
Sjabats, Is quoted in The Bohemia, a
newspaper published at Prague, in
part as follows:
The Servian infantry is very brave,
but does not shoot as we'll as 1t might.
The only good shots the Servians have
are the Komitadje irregulars, who,
concealed In the foliage of bushes and
down the Austrian officers.
THE Servian artillery is excellent,
accounted for in part by the circum-
stance that fighting in its own coun-
try 1t is fully familiar with the err
rain. AS result their range is good,
all the more so since they are given
by the natives information which we
cannot get, of course. Generally the
direction of advance of our army is
army by the lighting Of great straw
fires. In the sepulchre under the
church Of Sjabats we found a tele-
phone station with wires running to
the various Servian headquarters.
But the Servian soldiers are
brave. Some of their tactics are Pc
culiar. Now and then numbers of
them permit themselves to be made
prisoners Of war for the mere pur-
poSe VI supporting plau OF anpuSn.
Cases, too, have been known In which
prisoners of war made attacks on our
men with hand grenades concealed by
them. The confusion resulted from
this has in many instances resulted
in the escape of the prisoners.
I'VE have found that women fight
us with rifles, while even children are
employed to throw bombs. A. I2-year-
old girl, who was shot through the
legs, and was taken into the hospital
at Neusatz, boasted OF having thrown
sixteen bombs among Austro- -Hunga.

NEW PRIVILEGES IN
LONDON THEATERS

London, Sept. 2s.--The war has
brought about two Innovations In the
leading London theaters, a reduction
OF prices. and the privilege of sitting
In the best seats without wearing z,
ming dress. The stalls Of London
houses, which correspond to orches-
ira seats in America, are ordinarily
sold at two and half dollars, but
several Of the principal theaters have
reduced the prices to two dollars. AL
though there was no hard and fast
rule there was q custom which only
few Independent people had the te-
merity to violate that every occupant
of the stalls should wear evening
dress. The exceedingly fashionable
theaters controlled by Sir Herbert
Beerbohm Tree and Sir George Alex
ander were among the first to recog-
nize that war IL a time when formali-
ties are at a discount. =.
When people are cutting or their
luxuries. and many In mourning or
oppressed with anxiety for relatives
at the front, theater-going suffers a
sharp decline. In the interests Of the
many people who depend upon them
for living the managers are doing
their best to keep their houses open.
PROFIT sharing has been adopted by
many London and provincial estAb-
lishmente.

BRITISH way OF TAKING
war GRIM IN COMPARISON
WITH EMOTIONAL AMERICA

London, Sept. 2S.-No con-
trast between English and for
eign ways has 90 impressed Amer
ican tourists as the reception of
the recruits here during war
time. An idle crowd stands dur
ing the day around the recruit
ing stations watching the apph-
cants. At evening when the new
ly enlisted men march out in .
column of fours with some at.
tempt at = military swing, sing.
ing or whistling, "It's . long, long
way to Tipperary," heads pop out
Of windows and crowds gather on
the curbs, but there Is seldom
more than faint cheering IL any
at all. There is none of the rum
ming up to hand the men tobac-
co, fruit or flowers, common to
more emotional peoples.
Once in the forces the recruits,
who are mostly youths, may. be
seen marching to the parks for
drill, but even then they are
watched only by voiceless idlers.
The last seen Of them in London
is on the platform of one of the
great railway stations, to be sent
no one knows where. Generally
they depart in the night.
There is something grim and
impersonal about the English
way Of taking the war. But the
American cannot turn on q Lon
don street without meeting an ex-
tended hand for some fund to
benefit the soldier. "Tommy At
kins" Is not made much of in
dividually, but collectively his
comforts are we'll looked after,
even to the question of tobacco in
the firing line.
