AND 70PROsPER
President Cooke Goes On
Record As Predicting
Future
POPULATION TO Be $4,000
And Big Things Are Being
Planned For The Magic
City
POPULATION TO Be $4,000

Every citizens Of Bogalusa from
time to time has heard the Mayor
tell about how large Bogalusa is 60
ine to be in the next five or ten
years; but never before has the
President of the Great Southern
Lumber Company gone on record
on this subject as Mr.. Cooke did at
a recent meeting Of the heads Of
department in the directors room
of the office building. Mr.. Cooke
said
Gentlemen, want YOU all to
know that am firmly convinced
that there are going tob be big things
done in B0galusa within the next
few wears, and l want to predict
that Bogalusa is going to have 25.-
900 population in five years.
Such a statement coming from the
head of one of the great institutions
in the state of Louisiana means far
more than the average person would
think. Mr.. Cooke going on record
with such a statement means that
he has studied conditions and has
decided upon some things which
will do much towards seeing that
his prediction is fulfilled. IS

"PARKER'S ELECTION MEANS
NEGRO TO VOTE SANDERS

~ OF the statement OF MT. TdIkel
that Col. Pleasant and the Demo-
cratic nominees was a hand picked"
ticket. If it was there were $4,000
hands doing the picking for Mr..
Pleasant had not received a single
vote in the Parish Of Orleans he
would still have been the choice Of
the Democracy of the state.
PLEASANT NOMINEE AUG 81
Mr.. Sanders then reviewed the
memorial constitutional convention
when Mr.. Pleasant was the only
thought of candidate for Governor
thathad the nerve to try and beat
the greatest combination that was
ever known. The New Orleans ward
bosses Gov. Hall. Jno. M. Parker
and every daily paper in New Or
leans were fighting Mr.. Pleasant
and were for the constitutional con-
vention. The country vote defeated
the convention and on that day
Aug, 81 Rufin G. Pleasant was
practically nominated as the standard
bearer of the party.
THE MORAL OBLIGATION
Sanders then discussed at length
the obligation of Democrats who
participated in the Democratic pri-
mary to support Col. Pleasant and
the entire state ticket He called
attention to the fact that certain
Parker newspaper urged to voters
