Charles A. Nugent for Constable of
Ward Four.
In our announcement column
this week will be found the name
of Chas. A. Nugent, who is a
candidate for constable of ward
four, subject to the regular Dem
ocratic nomination. Mr.. Nugent
is from a family well known in
Grant parish as among our early
settlers, and of established worth
and integrity. We understand
that he is endorsed by a number
of the citizens of his ward, and
that he will have their united
support for the position. If elect
ed he promises to fulfil his duties

John Randolph for Police Juror.

We are authorized this week
to present our readers with the
name of John Randolph as a can
didate for police juror for ward
one, subject to the Democratic
nomination. Mr.. Randolph was
once a member of the police jury
and gave great satisfaction in
that capacity. He is a man of
large affairs and sterling quail
ties, and is eminently suited for
the Office of police juror. By
agreement heretofore the rule of
rotating the member from Colfax
and the lower end of the ward
has prevailed for many years,
and as Colfax has had two con-
secutive innings. at the solicita-
ton of his friends Mr.. Randolph
has consented to allow his name
to be presented as a candidate
for the position.

The city of New Orleans was
visited Sept. % by the severest
hurricane that has occurred in a
great many years. Sixteen dead
and fully two hundred injured
persons are reported for the city,
while thirty deaths or more are
said to have occurred along the
coast. The wreckage Of build

estimated at So, 500. 900, and in
the country the damage to crops
is extensive. Telephones. tele-

H. +. Gray for Assessor.

We are authorized this week to
present the name of Henry P.
Gray, of Pollock, to our readers
as a candidate for the Office of
assessor, subject to the will OF
the Democratic voters of Grant
parish in the primary election to
be held for the nomination of
candidates. Mr.. Gray informs
us that he has lived in Grant par
ish for fifty years. has always
tried to be on the side of right,
and this is the first. time he has
ever asked the COED people of
Grant for any office. He is fully
competent to fulfill the duties of
the office, and if elected he prom
Uses to do his duty faithfully to
one and all alike.
Mr.. Gray is we'll and 1avOraDly
known as a business man, and he
has a great many friends who
will accord him a hearty support
for the office. He is especially
we'll known among the members
of the Farmers Union, having
been selected by them a few
years ago as Receiver to settle up
their warehouse business, which
we understand he accomplished
to the general satisfaction of
those concerned. Being of steady
and pains taking habits he is well
suited for the Office of assessor,
and should he be elected we feel
sure he will give a good account
of himself in the discharge of his
duties as a public official.

Holy Roller Tabernacle Burned.

The newly built tabernacle be-
longing to the Holy Rollers, Pc
culiar religious sect, was destroy
ed by fire at Pollock on Friday
night of last week. The fire is
said to have been of incendiary
origin, as the mode of worship
of these people is objected to by
most of the citizens. If it was
the act of an incendiary, tits a
reflection on the people of Pol
lock that such a high handed act
of intolerance should occur in the
community. There is absolutely
no defense for such an OCCUR
renee, and the perpetrators if
convicted in court of justice
would certainly be severely pun
ished.

Mr.. w. A. Brownlee has author
lied the presentation of his name
as a candidate for police juror
for ward one. Mr.. Brownlee is
recognized as a man of fine ex-
ecutive ability, and if elected
will doubtless administer parish
affairs with credit to himself and
satisfaction to the public. He is
accustomed to the handling of
large interests. and should he be
chosen for the position can be
relied upon to make a good show
ing of his management of parish
affairs. He has many friends
who will give him a hearty sup
port for the position.

money comes from funds appro-
priated for that especial purpose,

who is not regularly enrolled in
one of the four clubs will be
given a prize.
Arrangements have been made
whereby all pigs exhibited by
club members may be vaccinated
against hog cholera, at the option
of the owner, without cost. This
IS deemed advisable as cholera is
oretty general in parts of our

How the GuberrafGrial Candidates
Stand.
During the past week the four
candidates for governor have
made their formal entry into the
campaign, and all nave given out
their position on the main public
questions at issue.
Lieutenant Governor Thos. G.
Barrett declares himself in favor
of female suffrage, and on the
liquor question he comes out
in favor of State wide
prohibition. He says: Il favor
immediate extension of the pro-
hibition unit from the parish to
the congressional district and
providing for an election therein
on the issuance of liquor license,
as demanded by the people. |
stand pledged to do all in my
power to see that the question
of Statewide prohibition is SUBJ
mitted to the electorate of the
entire State for decision during
my term of office as governor,
if elected. My position will be
fully set forth in my platform,
now in course of preparation. -
The position of Attorney Gen.
eral r. G. Pleasant on prohibit
ton is a distinct disappointment
to the friends of temperance.
He does not want any change
that will injure the liquor inter-
ests. He says: Il favor local
option with the parish as a unit.
Should be elected governor and
the legislature passes a State
wide prohibition bill would veto
it. My reasons will be given
fully and frankly in my platform
and public speeches"
DR.. Clarence Pierson also is
sore afraid of the whisky inter-
ests, and sits on the fence thus:
Il am local optionist favoring
the present statute of parish unit.
/ oppose agitating the liquor
question at this inopportune time,
but if the next legislature, fresh
from the people, should change
the unit from the parish to the
congressional district, | will give
the bill my approval. / am un-
alterably opposed to Statewide
prohibition. Such a law could
not be enforced and l will exert
every influence at my command
to defeat such an effort"
John M. Parker, the Bull
Moose, independent Republican
candidate, in reply to the Secre-
tary of the Louisiana Anti-Sa-
loon League, wired as follows:
In reply to your telegram 9th.
beg to say | advocate local option
and strict enforcement of the
law. If officials elected by the
people are derelict in their duty
and cannot or will not enforce
the law, dismiss them and put
in their place men who will fear
lessly perform their sworn duty.
| am opposed to Statewide pro-
hibition. which is never enforced,
brings the law into contempt,
and if elected governor, shall We
to such legislation"
