Not regulars from the Posts with banners waving high
But husbands and brothers who week ago here
Sharers OF the home life unutterably dear.
It's our flag, OURS, that sends the clarion call
Across mighty nation and the tools of commerce fall,
While the fathers of children take their to-day

That God in loving mercy let the end be late

Governors Address

The inaugural address of Governor
Pleasant was significant in the things he did
not say and the promises that he did not
make. The whole tenor of the document
indicates that Mr.. Pleasant appreciates the
the complexity of the problems that his ad-
ministration must unravel, and shows that
he is adverse to pledging things that cannot
be carried out. Mr.. Pleasant has been in
public life long enough to learn that perfec-
ton IN government is accomplished by
gradual development and not by sudden and
radical changes; that it is not safe to at
tempt at one time too many reforms, for the
reason that every item of reform attempted
carries with it some opposition. A combina-
ton of the individuals opposed to each pro-
ject of reform would result in the defeat of
any reform movement, hence the only
practicable way to approach the matter is
by degrees and with caution. The pledges
made to the people in the recent campaign
were not radical, but were so conservative
as to warrant the belief that Governor Plea
SAINT will have the full cooperation of the
legislature in redeeming them.
Taken altogether there is ring about
the address that convinces us that Governor
Pleasant knows that he has a heavy Job
ahead and that he will make haste slowly.
Anyway We appreciate the fact that the
Governor is going at the task deliberately.

Still They Come

Approximately 5000 applicants for
jobs under the Pleasant administration
have been filed with Private Secretary
John Marshall. Places on the Conserva-
ton Commission are most sought, there
being on file over $50 applications for
these three jobs.
The State penitenliary board OF con-
troll comes next, with 100 patriots of
fering their services for the three posts,
there is a chance all three may be
abolished and a general manager Gre
ated.
The fire marshal is popular card
there being Is on file for it. For cattle
Inspector at New Orleans, there is only
one formal applicant, j. Floyd Hodge.
There are half-dozen seeking the
post of Orleans registrar of voters, and
it requires special wire baskets to hold
letters seeking membership on the levee
boards.
This weeks executive mails have
been loaded with letters endorsing Oscar
Bowling for reelection as president of
the State Board of Health, and this
mornings post brought boom for L. A.
Tombs for acknowledgement.
The above Baton Rouge item from the
Daily States.
Now what does this greed for office
mean. Some of these applicants want office
Tor pecuniary advantage; some to satisfy a
vain ambition, but most of these offices pa,
10 salaries and in fact carry no high honors
Just think of it! The Governor barrel,
n office and 5000 applicants already re.
,elved.
The majority of these applicants are
capable men, who could accomplish success
n other walks Of life with half the energy
md effort that they spend in trying to Sc.
ure public office. We pass up the problem.

Let George Do 1t

The sheriffs elect want the sheriffS to
oe elected four years hence to stand the cut
N the fees of that Office
This is the only error made by them in
connection with the pending legislation. The
JOURNAL has never believed that these Off
Gals were overpaid and has contended that
IN office of this Importance should carry such
salary as would attract to it the best men
in the several parishes. But if after calm con-
sideration of the facts the legislature con-
cludes that a change should be made-then
chat change should be made effective at
once, else we will have the same fight to
make again in 1920.
All the officials who stood for this office
.new of the campaign pledges made in rela-
Lion to the salary thereof, these conditions
we're practically part of the democratic
nomination.
The JOURNAL, with a great many others
believes that there is but little merit in this
scheme to change to salary basis, but the
fact stares us in the face that the party
stands pledged to it.
The time has arrived when the people
must insist that politicians carry out ante
election promises; build up, we may say, a
kind of political morale
Unless the Press and indep voters
force this course the politics of the State will
develop into q simple job-seeking contest.
We are glad few promises were made,
but it is common duty to hold to the fire
the feet of the men who made them.
1t is not opportune to advance the
doctrine 'let George do it."
