Pleasant and The RING.
Shreveport Journal:

Shreveport Journal
On August 3Oth last, Mr.. Thomas re-
garded the New Orleans ring as a bale
full political influence, that would not
hesitate to use its club of twenty thou
sand votes in the state primary to Sc
cure the particular advantage it was
seeking. Mr.. Thomas appealed to the
country to save the state from this
ring terror. Today, the New Orleans
bosses are supporting the candidacy of
Col. Pleasant and fighting Mr.. Barrett
What do Mr.. Thomas and Col. Pleasant

ured during the few months that
We elapsed since Mr.. Thomas gave
blicity no intention to parity the at
moSphere Of the Augean stable to
which he referred with such striking
emphasis? Is not the duty of the coun.
try to save the state just as imperative
now as it was when Mr.. Thomas rallied
the rural voters against the ring? If
ring support is predicated, as Mr..
Thomas said it was in August, on recl-
procal benefits, why does Mr.. Thomas
not protest against Col. Pleasant re-
Ceiving the organized support of The
ring now?

The Pleasant Meeting in Jefferson

Shreveport Journal:
Mr.. Barrett is the relentless foe of
boSSiSm and as Jefferson justice is the
most acute form of ringiSm demanding
attention at this time, he rightfullY
conceives it to be his duty to bring the
people to realizing sense of their peril
in the premises. For Jefferson justice
is making strenuous efforts to assault
the strongholds of state government in
Louisiana. The political leaders of JEFF
ferson are supporting the candidacy of
Colonel Pleasant. The first gun of the
Marrero- Pleasant Jefferson campaign
was fred in Gretna, at meeting held
in the rear of the Tuxedo Cafe" last
Thursday night, with the usual band,
Weiner and beer accomplishments.
From this time on the saloon and ring
atmosphere of Jefferson will ring with
the name of Pleasant" Mr.. Barrett
will prove to be an "opportunist" of the
right sort if he succeeds in making 1.-THE
people Of Louisiana understand what a
menace to social peace and order JET
ferson justice has become and how
necessary if is that it's blighting in.

HOPE HOLDS THE HEART
(For The Rice Belt Journal BY W,
LomaX Childress.)

Hope holds the heart, the stormy days
are passing,
The rainbow brightens over the hills
afar,
Below the frigid ground the little
flowers are masSlng
The ship you look for soon will cross
the harbor bar,
Hope holds the heart, the hours OF
pain and passion,
Tomorrow will have passed to joy and
peace,
The stricken soul will find some hands
in kindly fashion
Bringing sure release.
Hope holds the heart, the faith that
failed and faded,
StriCkened by falSehood into severed
ties,
Kindled anew will to some larger trust
be aided
A dawning glad surprise.
Hope holds the heart. the poverty we
got for gold in seeking,
The rags and hunger, and the thirst
along the way,
Will change at last unto the voice of
Angels speaking
Merging into the May.
Hope holds the heart, the cry of lonli-
ness for loved ones taken,
The hot tears on the garments left
the picture, and the ring.
Is but a dream, and SOON to see them
we shall wake,
And feel their dear arms cling.
Hope holds the heart the discords in
lifes broken measure
The toys that time forbade our hands
too long to hold,
Will all be perfected and given to us a
larger treasure
Than ever tongue has told.
Holds the heart and helps it in it's high
endey0ur,
TiS not a vain an idle or an aimleSs
quest,
Fuller the vision grows unto the per.
feet day in that forever,
Bringing the weary rest.

No body who was at Sylvia last
Saturday need want further proof
of the efficiency of the prohibition
laws. There was a crowd of ap-
proximatly 5000 people in this little
city, and in a! that number there
was not one who was under the in
ago that would have been an i'm
possibility. Gentlemen, it is an IT.
REPUTABLE argument for the pro hibi-
ton cause.
Here's hoping that before another
Fair rolls round, Jackson County
farmers will have the services of a
demonstration agent.
For some unaccountable reason
the Southern Railway, after Offering
inducements to the people to come
70 Sylvia, last Saturday, failed to
furnish adequate Accommodations for
the big crowds that were here. The
trains both ways were crowded and
people were hanoin to the windows
by their teeth-figuratively speaking.
Says the Canton Observer, we
are in receipt of the premium list
of the Jackson County Fair, to be
held September %, 20, 80 and Oct.
l. The catalogue is creditably got
ten up and the premiums offered
are in keeping with the resources OF
Jackson. The association is to be
commended for their courage in
going ahead with the good work
after the loss of the fair buildings
by fire last years; and secretary
Jones is to be commended for his
untiring efforts in securing the
better class of exhibits and attract
ions for the fair.
Once again the time has passed
swiftly and before another issue of
this paper is On the press, the Jack
son County Fair will be in full swing.
The management of tire Fair has
been doing world Of work for the
past two weeks, getting every thing
in readiness for the county's annual
feast of frolic and pleasure mixed
with the educational value of the
Fair. The Fair Association. under
great disadvantage, has done it's
part and more 1t has replaced the
burned buildings, graded new roads
through the grounds and has secur-
ed attractions that are seldom found
at the smaller county fairs. The sue
cess of the enterprise now rests
with the people for whose pleasure
and profit it was innaugurated, the
farmers of the county. The indica-
tons at this time are that they
are coming forward n0bly and will
bring such an exhibit that will swell
the hearts of all jackson people
with honest pride.

ter when his smartly swatted liner lodged safely in the glove of McGee- han. So was Mac astoniShed, but he acted just as though he meant to play it for the side pocket. Hester lifted one to Stroloff, and the inning began to assume the appearance of Ia barren and fruitless thing. Even McArdle's walk seemed futile, with so many down. Then along came Ruth-that is to say. Bill Bowling. and he lined the ball between Barton and Fuller. Lynn helped the good cause with a stinging liner along the third base line. and because Bowling had taken the precaution to steal second. he easily scored on the hit, right back of Harry, and it was two very acceptable runs that Hall had to work on.
 Demaggio waited out the Red Head in the third, advanced on Hester's pretty bunt and scored when Me Ardle got his thousand percent hit. Later. McArdle was wise enough to walk twice more, so that his bat ting average for the game was just as flawless as it could be.
 From that time. until the very last. Red Fulwider saw to it that nobody got the semblance of a sefety. Except for walks in the sixth and eighth and a hit batsman (yes, you guessed it-Brown) nobody as much as got on for Phoenix all the rest of the game.
 Meanwhile. Tucson was worrying Hall as a purp worries a bone. A hit. walk. hit batsman-any old thing at all was good-put men on as the innings were laid away in record, and every time. something would hap they wanted most in the world right then. Even if the funny Second Sack to McArdIe to Hester. put out hadn't convinced 'em they couldn't win, the lightning double in the seventh ought, but they kept right on fighting as will be shown later on in this chronicle. Callan developed his habit of getting two base hits, and in the second took this route to second. Bar tons single advanced him. then Full wider grimly determined not to hear again the folorOus voice of the um- pire, announcing the third strike, smote the ball in the general direc- uion of home plate.

 GLOBE, May 6.-Players on both the Globe and Miami baseball teams are practicing regularly in anticipation of the opening game of the season at the School Hill park in this city next Sun day afternoon. The game is to be called promptly at o'clock in the afternoon and it is anticipated that a record breaking crowd will be in attendance.
 The Miami lineup has not yet been announced but the position to be filled by the Globe players have practically been decided on. The Globe boys were on the field early yesterday afternoon and in practice showed up to the best of advantage. The boys declare that they are confident of winning Sundays game in spite of the fact that the play CTS at the Concentrator City have been practicing for several weeks longer than the Globe team.
 It is expected that there will be a large delegation of Miami fans in at tendance at the game and it appears probable that wagers amounting to a considerable sum will be posted on the outcome.
 Managers of both organizations as - sert that their teams are stronger than the clubs of last season and fast ball is promised.
