As you are doubtless aware it
takes a large amount Of money
to pay the absolutely legitimate
expenses Of a campaign. Even
the matter Of postage is a big
item and to prepare the cam
paign matter and mail it to the
voters require a small army of
stenographers and typewriters.
The postage, preparation and
stationery of a single letter to
every voter In the State costs
$15, 900 and all of them will have
been written to several times be-
fore the election. Besides there
are many other expenses that
must be met such as office rent,
office force expense, travelling
expenses for speakers, etc. The
Democratic party has no large
contributors to rely upon, no Wall
Street, no railroad managers. The
expenses of the campaign must
be met by the people as l Will
not seek the contribution Of a
single corporation in the State.
President Wilson, supported by
a Democratic Congress, has a
chieved more In the last three
and a half years of control than
was ever before achieved In ten
times as many years by any ad-
ministration. Its useless to enum-
crate the list of splendid laws
that have been passed on the
statute books which have vltallz-
ed the nation. The people owe 1t
to President Wilson and to them
selves to retain him in office to
continue the good work he Is do
ing.

Three or four new cases of
scarlet fever have been reported
this week and the health officers
have deemed it best to close
down the schools for a short
time to prevent a spread of this
disease and diphtheria. Stubbs
school was closed Monday. DR.. j.
NJ. Hubbard also closed the West
Hickman school Monday and the
college yesterday. While there is
not enough of the disease to
close a city school, DIR. Hubbard
said sentiment here seemed to
demand it. Since the schools are
closed, all parents should assist
the health officers by keeping
their children close at home until
they are opened again. 1t will
not do much good to close the
schools if the children are allow
ed to roam the streets and play
with other children. Three new
cases of scarlet fever have de-
veloped this week, one at George
Wright's S in West Hickman, and
two in the Stahr property near
Swift's store, also at Will Rice's
in the country.

LOUISIANIANS GET FINE
FLOODED CATTLE

As a result Of the Louisiana
Farmers Observation Tour
through the dairy belt more of the
finest cattle in the country will
make their home in this state.
Members of the party and others
resolved to improve their herds or
introduce better dairying and
cattle among the farmers in their
sections. and DR.. w. R. Dodson,
head Of the agricultural educa-
ton forces, detailed Professor C..
H. Staples to select the animals
and consolidate the purchases
into single shipment.
The largest purchaser was DR..
Guy A. Shaw. banker-farmer at
Loreauville, who bought twenty
three Holstein heifers and bull,
and Guernsey bull. The Hol-
stein bull was the prize-winner at
the dairy congress at Waterloo as
well as at several of the state
fairs. C. A. Schexnayder. at
Baton Rouge, bought twenty p
vear-old Holstein heifers. The
State University was given s
special price on three Holstein
cows which have produced their
way into the record of merit.
The animals are to be used for
educational purposes. w. f.
Lawson. Of Crowley. member of
the agricultural committee of
the Louisiana bankers, gets three
Holstein heifers for his parish.
Senator Emile Sundberry. of Ma
poleonville, who had bought some
of the finest HOlsteins in the coun.
try for his dairy and breeding
herd, purchased an outstanding
bull of great produciE" pedigree
which is expected to prove cham
pion in any company.
DR.. A. J. Price. who is building
up fine dairy herd on his plan
tation at Thibodaux. where he
says there will be no return to
sugar cane, is represented in the
