BULL MOOSE.

Hon. John J. Robira, a former
resident of this city, but now OF
Jennings, has announced his can
didacv for congress from the
seventh congressional district on
the Progressive ticket. Mr.. Ro-
'oira says that the Democratic
party has been unfair to the peo-
pie Of Louisiana and that it is
high time for new blood to enter
into the political arena of the
State. "The time has come
when We can no longer continue
to pay tribute to party which
has ignored our interests as has
the Democratic party" said Mr..

TRIBUTE TO THE EDITOR.

The Arkanhas Democrat pays
the following compliment to the
newspaper men Of the State who
gathered in Little Rock last
week:
"Too much cannot be said for
the men who devote their lives
and energies to the boosting of
their respective localities and
the State at large.
"When simmered down it must
be acknowledged that the editor
is the one individual who is al
ways willing to hide his ham
mer' and get down to real boost
ing.
"The editor, as a rule, is short
on money, but mighty long on
giving space in his paper to the
things that mean prosperity for
his community, and too often
the fact is lost sight Of that the
editor so willingly gives to aid
his community and his people is
his bread and butter. It is what
he has to sell, and when he gives
it away it is just the same as il
the grocer dished out gratis his
coffee and sugar.
"The average editor is not a
rich man, yet he gives Of what
he has with free hand. If the
people who directly and indirect
lv benefit from the free publicity
given them by the editors Of their
community would only stop to fig
.ure up what the editor really
gives them they would be SUR
prised, and would undoubtedly,
be inclined to hail the editor as
not only the most loyal but as the
most liberal man of the commun-
ity. "-Ex.
