To The Democratic Voters OF The
Parish of ST. John.

We wish to seize this oppor.
tunity to extend publicly, oul
heartfelt thanks to each and
every voter of st. John who cast
his ballot for Our friend, l.. M.
Reynaud of Lucy, who made a
most excellent race, and a record
one in the short time allotted him
and ourselves for the campaign.
we are indeed proud of the re-
suits, and all the supporters of
Reynand should feel equally
proud especially when we
consider the many and great odds
that faced our candidate. Hisop
nent bears an unblemished re-
putation of long standing, and is
known to each and every voter
having frequently come before
the people as candidate for dis
trict Judge on several occasions;
while Reynaud being just from
the University, had to come out
and meet the voters, create a
favorable impression and to do
all this he had but three weeks
time, and still from reports up to
this writing, he appeare to have
lost by the close margin of forty
four votes only. In view of these
facts, we feel that Reynaud is
deserving of the greatestof credit
and honor for having given hr.
Chenet such a close race, and
every Supporter of Reynaud
should feel proud of this young
mans first attempt in the poIiti-
cal field
The Reynaud Club is proud of
the work accomplished by the
campaign Boosters in the diff
ferent wards even though in the
sixth. the results were somewhat
surprising; however the club feels
that a very strong fight has been
made in this parish, o fight that
will produce unexpected results
in the January primary elections
at which election, we hope to
see every free and Independent
Democrat rally to the banner of
the regulars, -. With thanks to
the good free and independent
voters Of st. John for the loyal
given Mr.. Reynaud,
We are, Respectfully,

in this parish on tuesday
was very quiet. Judge james
Y. Chenet was declared the
winner by 46 majority.
Mr.. Reynaud made a splen-
did race defeating Judge Che
net in almost every ward of
this parish excepting the
sixth, fifth and fourth wards
Strange to say the fifth ward
gave the Judge only 5 ma
Jority, and hadit not been
for certain unforeseen events
Mr.. Reynaud would have
carried not only the first,
second, and third wards, but
would also have carried the
fifth ward by a good ma
jority.
The Reynand men are
proud of the good sho wing
made throughout the parish
and are already preparing
themselves for the next fight
in January.

A COMMUNICATION.
TO THE CITIZENS OF ST.
JOHN THE BAPTIST
PARISH.

We, the Undersigned en-
| ployees of the Lyon Cypress
Lumber Company, of Garyville.
Louisiana, holding positions
which give US more or less au-
thority over others, solely for the
proper conduct of the Cnmpanv's
business. have been accused
repeatedly of using our authority
as a political weapon.
We wish to call attention to the
fact that these accusations never
come from an employee of the
company, but from outsiders,
who require no grounds for such
assertions as have been circu-
lated, since the methods and
practices imputed to US are such
as would perhaps be freely used
by the accusers, were they in our
positions, and if they but knew
it, they are only exposing their
own attitude toward political mo-
rality.
We do claim the right of the
American Citizen to have an
opinion, to talk about it and to
vote for it; we claim the right to
argue political questions with
those either above or below Us
in authority, but We brand as
false any statement that we, or
any one of US, has ever threaten
ed or fntimidated any employee
for political reasons, or promised
any man employment or advan-
cement as an employee, for the
purpose OF influencing his vote.
And, In conclusion, we wish to
state that the Management of the
Lyon Cypress Lumber Company
has never expressed itself for or
against any faction or political
body, nor has it ever requested
once of the undersigned to use his
in a political way, and
while we, the undersigned, are
of different factions
and cannot agree politically, and
while some of as will oppose
others to the last ditch, for the
of the faction we
favor, We feel it our duty to join
each otheri in the above statement
which is intended to draw clear
line, for all future times Of poIiti-
cal stress. between our business
associations and our political in

HOUSE DEFEATS
SUFFRAGE BY 78
VOTE WAS 2o4 TO 174 AGAINST
SUBMITTING CONSTITUTIONAL
AMENDMENT.
FIGHT WILL CONTINUE
VOTE WAS SECOND IN HISTORY
VOTE WAS SECOND IN HISTORY
OF CONGRESS ON WOMAN
SUFFRAGE ISSUE.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Notwithstanding House OF Repre-
sentatives, by vote Of 204 to 174, re.
fused to submit to the states an
amendment to the federal constitution
to enfranchise women.
The vote, the second in the history
of Congress on the woman suffrage
issue, came at the close OF day OF
long prepared for oTatOry, during
which many of the speakers, inciud-
ing Representative Taylor of Colo
RADIO, were listened to with frequent
evidence of approval or disapproval
by packed galleries. The question
was before the House on the Mondell
resolution to submit constitutional
amendment providing that the right Of
suffrage should not be abridged "be.
cause of sex"
A two-thirds affirmative vote was
necessary to pass the resolution; it
Party lines were not strictly drawn
/ in the fight, though Democratic Lead
er Underwood, voicing the attitude Of
his party that suffrage is state is-
sue. strongly opposed the resolution,
while Republican Leader Mann was
one of the chief speakers for the suf-
fragists.
Enthusiasm mingled with detection
when Speaker Clark announced the re-
suit, end into the corridors from op-
posite galleries fled the hundreds of
suffragists. with their purple and yell
low sashes, and the red-rose bedecked
anti-suffrag.sts.
This was the second defeat for the
suffrage cause in the national legisla-
ture within year. March 10 last an
equal suffrage constitutional amend
ment proposed by Senator Chamber
lain of Oregon, received a vote of 35
to "a in the Senate, securing bare
majority, but failing Of the necessary
twothirds. However, suffragist lead
ers were not dismayed.
AS they left the galleries led by DR..
Anna Howard Shaw, Mrs. Carrie
Chapman Gait and other champions of
the cause, they declared that the fight
was by no means over and that the
suffrage propaganda would be pressed
forward and onward until every wom-
an in America should have the right
to cast ballot.
