the fight is being made. 1t is not
pleasant task; it is not an easy
tas k; but it is very necessary
task.
The things that are worth while
| in this world are the things that
are hardest to achieve, the things
that must be fought for, forught
for tenaciously. persistently.
If we who are fighting for Pro-
gressive thought ana Progressive
principles on closely questioning
ourselves believed we were
wrong, then the situation would
be far different; but close
scrutiny of the principles we
stand for. close scrutiny of the
principles that other political or
ganizations stand for, convince us
that our principles are right; that
we have done nothing to be
ashamed of or toregret, and as our
principles involve the very fund
amental principles of government
and prosperity for our people,
what can We as self-respecting
men do except to continue the
fight until in some form or other,
we win out?

4 Vast Difference Between A Boss
And A Leader.

We should take the time anc
pains to make it perfectly clear
.hal there is vast difference bet.
ween boss and a leader.
There never was time when
people had such little use fol
bosses and such real need fol-
leaders.
The boss appeals to ignorance
and cupidity.
The leader appeals to intelli-
gence and patriotism.
If you arc for principles ulti-
mately, you will stick.
If you are for patronage inn
mediately. you will quit.
There is nothing sacred about
political parties or their names.
They are all ephemeral. butt up
to serve the needs of a certain
generation or two at the time Ct

pear. This has been the history
of all time.
The manufacturer who does not
discard his old schinery when
he sees that more modern and
efficient machinery would give
him better or more economical
output soon finds himself in q
receivers hands.
If, because an old machine has
served i'm well aud earned him
profits in the past, he sticks to it,
in the face OF progress, he fails.
The same should be true of our
attitude toward political organi.
and parties.
The need of the hour is for me n
OF broad enough vision to com pre-
bend the mighty changes that are
taking place in the world o.day:

patriotism to stand up and make

i've and subject to the will Of
the power appointing it!
The States, from its stand
point as one Of the leading
Democratic papers Of Louis
lana, has answered the ques-
ton. 1t says:
s. If it is his (the
Governors purpose to d.
vorce the. registration from
the Clerk and make the for
mer appointive by some PUB.
Lie BOARD 4 ," - Aye,
some public board controlled
by the Democratic party,
that will be more partisan
and unfair.
And the States gives its
reasons, that because the
Progressive party has elected
a Congressman in the Third
District and are now fighting
for the local Offices as a part
Of a plan eventually to cap
ture the State government.
If the Progressive party
elected a Congressman in the
Third District it was fairly
accomplished by the will of
the WHITE PEOPLE of the
District. If. honestly be-
lieving the Progressive Par
tvs policy is best for our
State government, the white
people have a right to align
themselves with the party Of
their choice and fight legally
for it's supremacy. 1t is I'M
just to denounce the Pro-
gressives in the Third Dis
trict as CONSPIRATORS.
They are loyal white citizens
Of the State and the peers of
their auversaries in every
respect. And we submit,
that it is wrong because you
are in power to use methods
and weapons which were
only excusable in the dark
days of Louisiana's history,
with the evident intention Of
unfairly throttling loyal
white men Of the State, whose
only fault is an honest diff
ference in party and govern
policy from those in
power.
Why cannot the people of
each Parish be trusted to
elect its Registrar Of Voters,
and why should that privi-
lege be taken away from
every Parish in the State Of
Louisiana, because any one
party happens to have a ma
jority Of the vote in any par
ish!
