THE SONG OF PEACE.

THE SONG OF PEACE.
"HE grass is green on Bum
ker Hill,
The waters sweet in Bran
:. DIVINE:
The sword sleeps in the scab-
bard still.
The farmer keeps his flock and
vine:
Then who would mar the scene
today
With vaunt of battlefield or fray?
The brave corn lifts in regiments
Ten thousand sabers In the sun;
The ricks replace the battle tents,
The hammered tassels toss and run.
The neighing steed, the bugle's
blast,
These be but stories of the past.
The earth has healed her wounded
breast.
The nno pillow the field no
more;
The heroes rest! Oh, let them rest
In peace along the peaceful shore!
They fought for peace, for peace
they fell:
They sleep in peace and all Is we'll.
The fields forget the battles fought,
The trenches wave in golden
grain;
Shall we neglect the lessons taught
And tear the wounds agape again?
Sweet Mother Nature, nurse the
land
And heal her wounds with gentle
hand.
Lo. peace on earth! Lo. flock and
fold!
Lo, rich abundance, fat increase,
And valleys clad in sheen of gold!
Oh, rise and sing a song of peace!
For Theseus roam the land no
more
And Janus rests with rusted door,.

Barnes attorneys today introanc-
ed letters that passed between

tatiyc Parsons regarding the nolni-
nation of Hughes for governor In
August, 1908, Barnes wrote that he
had burned all the bridges behind
HIM.
In one of Rooseyelts letters he
wrote that he realized Hughes had
noedless1y alienated many yotera'
but held that there was no other
candidate in sight who could get the
votes that Hughes could While
want to disclaim any intention of
seeming TO dictate the nomination.
he continued, Il think | ought 10
tell you that in my Judgment tie
convention ought 10 nominate him"
Another Roosevelt letter quoted
Hitchcock as saying the failure to
renominate Hughes would hurt the
campaign outside of New York" He
closed by saying that everybody had
agreed TO keep silent, but somebody
talked to the newspapers.
Roosevelt disclaimed saying any
thing to the newspapers In a let
ter to Parsons Roosevelt wrote in a
similar strain. Barnes wrote sec
oDd letter to Roosevelt, saying tie
BARRIERS were against Hughes This
he con idered good criterion.
Roosevelt wrote to Barnes saving he

EDWARD MYLES
To The Voters Of w ASKING
tor Parish,

In announcing my candidacy
for the office of Sheriff for Wash
ington Parish | realize that the
other candidates are good men
and against them I have nothing
to say. I simply place myself
before the people of the Parish
for their consideration believing
that I am competent to ill the
office | seek. For the past four
wears I have endetVored TO faith
fully fill the position Of Parish
Treasurer and [ submit my work
in that office to every voter as a
testimonial of my service.
I believe in the enforcement OF
the law, and especially do l be-
lieye the violations of our prohi
bition laws should be rigidly en-.
forced. 1t is FROM the influence
OF liquor illegally sold that caus-
es a large per cont of the crime
in this Parish. If elected ]
pledge myself to use every eff
fort to wipe out boot leggers anf
blind tigers. | will select gooc
sober upright citizens for peace
officers, if elected, and Will serve
the people of the Parish faithful
ly and without partlallty, carr
estly solicit the support OF eacI
!. and every voter.
l.. A. Brown
