TO THE CITIZENS AND
VOTERS OF

[ am a candidate for Chief
of Police of the City. / am no
stranger to you and, therefore,
need no formal Introduction.
Hence, I feel that I have a
right to enter into this politi-
cal contest on equal footing
with my opponent insofar as
personal acquaintance with
the citizens is concerned, at
least.
The respective qualifications
of my opponent and myself
for the Office, from a purely
personal or private standpoint,
is not a matter for him or me
to decide-or even discuss
but is a matter for the people,
the citizens and voters, to con-
slider.
The salient question is
whether you, the taxpayers,
are receiving a dollars worth
of value in service for the dol
lar you pay in taxes for this
service?
Some individuals may be
able to assert that they are re-
ceiving possibly more than
they expected to receive con-
sidering the amount they are
charged with, as taxpayers,
while others may consider
that they are NOT.
Being known to you, and be-
lleving that you have no rea-
son to doubt the sincerity Of
my statements relative to my
conduct in office SHOULD you
select me as your marshal)
| have only to say that / will
expend my full energy and eff
forts towards fulfilling the
position of Chief of Police
without displaying undue
haste IN s~uspecting wrong in
alleged offenders, or exhibit
ing negligible delay in bring
ing real offenders to justice.
Asking your support, I am,
Respectfully,
F. F. BUTLER,
Candidate for Marshal.

KELLY ANDRUS A
IN ASSESSORS FIGHT
Popular Young Creole VIII
Defeat Opponents in
Their Home Polls

From all appearances a sec
ond primary for the election of
assessor in St. Landry will be
unnecessary, as A. L. (Kelly)
Andrus, is gaining grounds
daily, and will probably re-
ceive a substantial majority
in the first go-round.
Reliable information re-
ceived here is to the effect
that Mr.. Andrus will secure a
good majority at Coulee
Croche, the home poll of one
of his opponents, while he will
be given a handsome plurality
at Eunice, the home of his
other opponent.
The fact that it has been
learned that Mr.. Andrus will
defeat his opponents at their
home polls, leads many to be-
lieve firmly that this splendid
young Creole will receive suf-
fcient votes at the January
primary. to elect him assessor
of st. Landry.
Mr.. Andrus is undoubtedly
the best fitted aspirant for the
Office Of assessor; his wide ex-
perience in and his intimate
knowledge Of the assessors
office rank him as one of the
best posted men on taxation
and assessment in st. Landry.
His unfinching loyalty to
duty, his noble and honest
character, experience, eff
cheney and ability all go to
make Mr.. Andrus the man
sought after for assessor.

HALF-BREED JAPANESE
CGAFESSES BURGLARY

A half-breed Japanese boy, seven
teen years old by the name of Mlwa
fiashaka, yesterday entered a plea
of guilty before Judge Taber to the
charge Of burglarizing the car occu-
pied by Halleck Mayer, the Southern
Pacific pumper at Elburz. An infor-
Indtion charge lad been filed against
Yiashaka, and the officers had all the
evidence to insure a conviction.
Last Friday the young Jap stopped
at Elburz and asked Mr.. Mayer for a
meal. The latter fed him and the
boy remained over night. The next
morning he was given his breakfast
and after Mr.. Mayer had finished his
work for the day he went fishing.
When he returned he found that his
car had been rifed, and a rifle, a
pistol, clothing. and various other
goods were gone. The officers here
were notified and they caught the boy
when he was entering town. Some of
the stolen goods were found on him
and the following day the boy took
the officers to the place where he had
cached the rest of his plunder. All of
the goods were recovered excepting
the pistol.
Judge Taber fixed the time for sent
ence for ten o'clock this morning, but
today he continued the time until to-
morrow morning at ten.
The judge and the district attor-
ney's office are trying to arrange in
some way to hold the boy until the
Detention Home Is ready for occupa-
ton, and not send him to the state
prison.
