WHAT WEST FELIciANA IS DOING.
(Woodville Republican,


Dr. R. A. Gregory, who has charge of
the tick eradication work in West Fe-
liciana parish, in commenting on the
work in that parish during a recent
visit to Woodville, said 1.-THE build
ing of sufficient watts and carrying on
dipping of cattle in the parish of West
FeIiciana during the season of 1915
will cost about $780, II systematic
dipping is carried on in the parish
next season it is probable that the
parish will be entirely free from ticks
by the fall of 1916, at total cost of
$4,000 to the parish" He also said:
when systematic dipping is started
and after five clippings at intervals of
II days tick-free certificate may be
issued which entities cattle to be re-
moved to any tick-free district
This statement, which is incontro-
vertible, coming from man who knows
what he is talking about, shows at
what small cost a county may get
rid of cattle ticks if the work is carried
on Systematically, and it shows also
that under certain regulations we will
be able to ship our cattle to tick-free
sections even before the county had
been declared entirely tick-free.

|OR. PERSON WILL NOT
| RUN FOR GOVERNOR

DR.. Clarence Pierson, superintendent
of the East Louisiana Hospital, an
nounced Saturday his withdrawal from
the race for governor, for which he
had made tentative canvass.
While DR.. Pierson gave greater
promise of giving good business ad-
Iministration than either of the other
two Democratic candidates for gov
ernor, he was not well enough known
politically to hazard a campaign in the
present crisis. He was not likely to
develop sufficient strength to with
lstand his two opponents and the Bull
Moose candidate, and wisely saw it
was useless to divide the vote. This
| is shown in the opening paragraphs of
his formal announcement, which read
as follows:
After much reflection and a confer
ence of friends, have concluded to no
longer be candidate for the Demo-
cratic gubernatorial nomination. Re-
Gently unexpected and ill-timed issues
and conditions have arisen. Mr.. Barret
has precipitated statewide prohibi-
ton fight. Mr.. Parker, as Progress
sive, has challenged the Democracy of
Louisiana. Principles and issues are
at stake; men, factions and personal
ambitions must be laid aside.
LAS loyal Democrat and an humble
citizen, willing and anxious to serve
my party and my State, even at politi-
cal and personal sacrifice, | have
weighed matters carefully and deter
mined to withdraw from the race, and
in pursuance to the urgent desires Of
the Board of Administrators of the
East Louisiana Hospital for the Insane,
to continue my duties as superintend-
ent of that institution.
when the contest in the Democratic
ranks has ceased, the fewer the fac
tional scars, the less the number Of
gaps, the stronger Democracy will be
to combat and conquer the opposition.
Political chickering's fractional strife
and personal ambitions should play no
part at this critical juncture in the
party welfare, and solid Democratic
Iphalanx must be preserved"

now. Remember that on an average
fall-sown oats yield double oats sown

Empire ranch with the officers who had taken them from town the night before. This situation at once aroused suspicious that all was not right and a posse of about 20 Mexi- cans accompanied by the justice and MT, Hitch went out to search in the direction taken by the officers and their prisoners.
 After the posse had gone about two miles one of the Mexicans fired his pistol and the justice of the peace and MT Hitch went to where he was. There they found the dead man and another about dead They were two of the Leon brothers The dead man was stretched out on the ground and the other man was sit ting bent over under a tree on which there was a large limb several feet above the ground.
 The wounded man had laid out all night Monday night and all day Tues day up to about three o'clock in the afternon in the hot sun. He was not in his right mind when found
 Deprived of Commissions.
 Upon the return of Sheriff Forbes last night from his investigation into the reported gun fight, Moore and Renter were deprived of their com missions and lodged in jail.
 It is understood that Moore and Renter claim that they strung the men up in self defense It appears, from their story, told upon their first return to the city Tuesday af- ternoon, that the three Leon broth CTS had threatened them with re- volvers on Sunday night while they were sleeping in shack near Great ery file.
 When they came to the city Tues day afternoon the officers said that one of the prisoners had been killed when their camp in gulch near the settlement was attacked Monday night The men had been taken pris- oners early in the day because of their threats.
 It is believed that Moore and Fen tar gave the three men the third degree in crder to obtain informa- tion about Antonio Encinas for whom they were awaiting. Encinas had participated in a gun fight with 3 deputy last week. He is wanted in with the disappearance of Mrs Loretta Yanes. 60 years of age, widow.

BOOM IN OIL LANDS.
More Than Two Hundred Location

More Than Two Hundred Locations Are Made in Cochise County. That there is a boom in the oil industry in the vicinity of Benson with in short time is evidenced by a large number of placer claim filings with County Recorder Owen B. Mur- | phy of Cochise county within the past several days.
 A strong company is known to have organized in Benson a short time ago to acquire and at once de- velop a large number of oil claims, and the filing of the location notices
 with Recorder Murphy gives evil dence that something is about to start in that section.
 That oil exists in the Lost Hills Basin in southeasterly direction from Benson is the opinion of ex- perts who have reported on the situ- ation. Those signing the location applications are z. T. Phillips, J E. McCarty, w. D. Calkins, L. C.. Cald- well, O.. H. Lincoln, C. R. Eddy, J. A. Johnson and J. D. Johnson
 Fully 5000 acres will have been taken up when all the locations are filed with the Recorder, according to word received here today, and it is said that drilling is to begin at once, so confident is the company that oil exists in that locality.
 Should oil be struck in this dis trict, Tombstone, as well as Benson and closely towns would benefit wonderfully thereby.
