HoLcoMBE NOT A CANDIDATE.
East Baton Rougean Withdraws from
Congressional Race.

Charles A. Holcombe, district at.
torney of East Baton Rouge parish
will not be a candidate for the con-
gressional nomination in the sixth
district. Mr.. Holcombe issued a for
NAL statement Wednesday,, announc-
ing his withdrawal from the race.
This leaves the field to ex-Gov. j. Y.
| Sanders, of Bogalusa, and Amos L.
Ponder, of Amite City. A Baton
Rouge despatch to the States says:
Report in political circles at the
capital is that the Holcombe people
generally will go to the support of
Governor Sanders. Further rumor is
that the Ellises and other powerful
influences in the St. Tammany- Tangi-
pahoa country, which at one time are
said to have been hands off, have de-
cided to support Sanders. The Pom
der people, on the other hand, say
the withdrawal of Holcombe will help
their candidate, and they are pleased
the third man has been eliminated"
Mr.. Holcombe's announcement of
his withdrawal is as follows:
Il have, on reconsidering this mat
ter, concluded to withdraw. In doing
SO, | desire to say that I am simply
yielding to my own personal wishes
in the matter. With three candidates
in the field, two primaries were almost
certain. | believe, had | continued in
the race, | would have been in a sec

candidates. However, one campaign
covering twelve parishes is task

campaign. The proposition has APP

conclusion that, after all, / would be
better satisfied by devoting my entire

ney, and had so expressed myself to
my friends.

GREECE DELAYED PLAN
ATTITUDE OF ATHENS NULL.
FLED AID TO RouMANiA.
Allies Sought to Cut of Germanys
Supplies Of Men From
Turkey.

London, Nov. Interpretations In the
Roumanian theater of war for the
time being must be regarded as of
merely local Importance, according to
the Petrograd correspondent of the
Morning Post. The correspondent
writes:
1.-The allies whole plan of campaign
in this quarter fell through as soon as
1t became evident that the forces at
Saloniki were unable to devote their
undivided attention to their task owing
to the attitude of Greece.
IF the adhesion of the Roumanians
had been accompanied by similar ac-
ton by Greece-which it is believed
here could have been brought about
by the use of couple of warships at
the proper moment--matters would
now be very different and joint action
from Saloniki and the Dobrudja would
by now have cut off Germany's sup
plies of men from Turkey. The Turks
have always been among the finest
war material In the world and under
German sergeants they must be con-
sidered extremely formidable. Greece
has been allowed to prevent the allied
scheme for cutting off Germany, or at
any rate to postpone the scheme for
another year."

DRINK AND DIVORCE.

"The story of the divorce court
reeks with whisky and brutality" says
Jack Lait, who writes for Chicago
Herald. He has lately been dropping
into the courtroom Of Judge Kersten,
the busiest iurist in Christendom. and
watching and listening" He has
found that ''the fist is the symbol OF
divorce and the bottle Its inspiration"
Liquor is responsible for more than
ten out of twenty cases. "Those are
the tales" he says. that do not get
display heads in news columns. They
are not important, they are not pic
turesqae." Judge Kersten has spent
so years "adiudicating criminal mat
tiers, from murder to splitting on the
sidewall;-and of It all. the blacklist.
the sorriest, the saddcst, are the d.
vorce cases"
And the states, most Of them. go
on licensing the sale of the stuff
which inspires the drunken fist-go
on in money partnership with the
drunkard maker!

HALTS MEXICAN AGREEMENT
Chairman Of carranza Body salks az
Form of Compact With the
United States.

Atlantic City, N. j., Nov. 15.-Vig
orous opposition by Luis Cabrera,
chairman of the Mexican representa-
ton, prevented a formal agreement by
the Mexican-American commission or.
the principal and essential POINTS of
the plan for the withdrawal of the
American troops from Mexico and 9th
err questions that have arisen between
the two countries.
1t became known that while Mr.. ca
brera was in Philadelphia comforting
with Rafael Nieto, subsecretary of the
department of finance, Carranza's two
other representatives and the Ameri-
can commissioners came to an agree
ment which the Mexicans believed
would be ratified by Mr.. Cabrera.
When Cabrera appeared before the
commission, however, he objected to
certain terms in the proposed agree
ment and for an hour addressed the
commissioners, protesting against the
plan as agreed upon by the other Mex
leans.
This unexpected opposition by Mr..
Cabrera is believed to have brought
the commissioners once more to a DO.
sition where solution of the inter
national problems cannot be reached
for several days at least.

WOMEN ON THE RACE COURSE
In Years Gone BY Many Have Shown
Skill In Plotting Their Horses
TO Victory.

The lady who recently shocked the
national hunt committee of England
by applying for a Jockeys license can
quote precedents in support of her
application. In recent years several
races have been gained In America
by female Jockeys. One Of these,
Miss Mary Mooney, crossed the At
lantic in 1908 and vainly tried to get
license from the French Jockey
club.
Then there Is the case Of Mrs.
Thornton, who, In the early years of
the nineteenth century, used to ride
her husbands racehorses. She made
her debut as a Jockey by riding a
match at York for $4,000 over four
mile course.
On this occasion she lost, but sub
sequent ventures proved more sue
cessful, her turf career being closed
by q match over five miles, which
she won by half neck. Mrs. Thorn
toms racing costume was somewhat
startling-purple cap and tunic, long
nankeen skirts, purple shoes and en-
broidered stockings.

FOLLY OF NATIONS.

In an address at London university
before the Child Study association on
Serving the Future" DIR. G. w.
Saleeby, an eminent English scientist,
stated that he had 1t on the highest
authority that the increase in infant
mortality since the war began was al
most entirely due to the fact that
mothers had been drinking more alco-
hol--had, in fact, been using to kill
the future the money given by the ma
ton TO save the future. People do
not realize" the doctor declared, "how
much Of the finest food is being de-
'trOycd tO make poison. 1t is the mad
lest thing you can imagine! There
ire not enough ships to carry our COM
mercc, yet many ships are being used
o bring to these shores the material
for making poison that our mothers
may buy at the corner of the street"
TO Illustrate the national need Of
caring for children In their earliest
years, Doctor Saleeby remarked that
during the past II months the army
had been rejecting immense numbers
of damaged" men, who were really
damaged as long ago as 1390-05. Ger
many had been having the same diff
Guilty, but in her case it was even
more serious. That country, he said,
was now paying for her characteristic
militarist neglect of the mother and
the child, FOR it was certain that n
high rate of infant deaths meant
proportionately high rate of dam
aged" or unfit men.
