For three or four days after the first

mails Full Of Spirit That Want to
Get Along Rapidly.

A slow moving colt can be taught
to walk fast by hitching it beside a
fast walker and urging it to keep up,
although it requires good handling to
obtain full success with this method.
The best results are secured with
animals full of spirit that want to
move rapidly. At the same time a
young horse that is full Of spirit, If it
IS allowed to work too hard, will be-
ccme too tired, lose it's ambition and
develop into a slow walker. The best
training is to use the young stock at
such light work that they can move
along rapidly without feeling it, let
ting them have only enough Of it SO
that they will get into the habit OF
moving rapidly and keep up the trait
after they are older.

contend that sheep can get all the
water they require from the dews.
This Is certainly a mistaken idea, and
one that is absolutely cruel, for sheep
need water as much as any Of the
other farm animals, though they do
not drink as much as some others.

PONDER's CHARGE

Amos L. Ponder is a candidate
, for Congress from the Sixth Con-
gressional District Of Louisiana He
is opposed in the race by former
Governor Sanders. Gov. Pleasant
appointed Henry L. FuQua, of Baton
Rouge, manager of the penitentlary
system of this state. This appoint
ment, Mr.. Ponder charges was made
to help the Sanders candidacy, a
charge which. upon the evidence,
The American believes is unfounded.
What is the evidence? 1t consists
of statements from Gov. Pleasant,
Mr.. Fuqua and Ex-Gov. Sanders.
They all deny the charge which Mr.
Ponder reiterates, saying; Now if
there is a man in the district who
believes this portion Of their state
ment, he really ought to be inter
dicted and sent to the asylum.
Now this is strong language, but
as unseemly as it is strong is not
right to call in question the veracity
of the Governor of this state with
out proof, merely in an attempt to
make political capital for a candl-
date for Congress. MIR. Fuqua is a
business man. He is not politician
and has never held office. The
state penitentiary system is a mil
lion dollars behind in its fnancies.
1t needs a business man at its head.
This is the reason assigned bv the
Governor for the appointment and
the people Of Louisiana are inclined
to accept his word.
Mr.. Ponder saws that Mr.. FuQua
will use the prison patronage in
favor o. Ex-Governor Sanders. This
is intended as a reflection on Gov.
Pleasant, Mr.. FuQua and eX-Gover-
/ nor Sanders. But is it not also a
reflection on the voters of the Sixth
Congressional against another, for
the candidate whom Mr.. Ponder
accuses of being bad and against
the candidate whom Mr. Ponder
claims to be good?
Does not Mr.. Ponders charge
show either that he is INSCRIPTIONS
in making an allegation which ne
can not Prove to help his candidacy
or that his eeolism since he has be-
gun to run for office. has grown so
great that he sees in an appoint
ment by the Governor to a state
office an attempt to interfere with
the paramount patriot Ponder III
the Sixth District?
Gov. Pleasant has the confidence
of the people Of Louisiana, who
placed him in Office by large ma
jori1y. Mr.. Ponder should Temem

The PUMPS WILL
REMAIN ON STREETS
CITY COUNCIL ACCEDES TO THE
WISHES OF THE PURE WA
TER ADVOCATES.

At the regular meeting of the city
council held Tuesday afternoon at
three O'Clock to hear the petition of
those citizens who objected to that
body's recent order to remove the
two pumps from Main street, as well
as the objections by certain citizens
who maintained that the pumps were
an obstruction to the streets, and a
general nuisance, the council decided
in favor of the pure water folks and
the pumps will remain on the streets.
Col. H. A. Wilkinson, who had been
employed by those who opposed the
pumps remaining on the streets to
prevent their being put up again by
injunction if necessary appeared be-
fore the council and made a plea
against the pumps obstructing the
streets.
City Attorney Marlin, assisted by
Coils. w. H. Gurr and j. G. Parks,
appeared in behalf of those who ia
vored the maintenance of the pumps.
City Attorney Marlin advised the
council that it had a perfect right
under the city charter to maintain
the pumps in the streets. After
hearing from the attorneys of both
sides the council voted to re-estab-
lish the pumps, Alderman Hamilton
voting against it.
The foundations for the pumps are
being reduced in size, and will not
occupy more than half the space they
did formerly.

CITY COUNCIL AT A REGULAR
MEETING FIXES RATE FOR
THE YEAR 1916.

The tax rate for owners of Daw-

1916. This rate was adopted at the
regular meeting of the city council

This added to the tax levy aggregates
$38, 883.44. The expenses of the city

at SAL, 883.44, which is $7,248.79
more than the estimated income. The
borrowing capacity of the city is $5,-
10000, which is $2,248.79 less than
the amount needed by the city this
year to defray estimated expenses.
