UTURE QUALIFICATION

= FUTURE QUALIFICATION
While the balance Of The world IS
wrapped in war reports the Slate-makers at
Baton Rouge are busy at work on the sena-
toria! ticket for next year These efforts
are intensely interesting, though premature.
In fact the tickets suggested will leave many
voters in doubt as to the choice between
staying at home on election day and gong
squirrel hunting. Nor do We see how it is
possible TO formulate ticket at this early
day when war records are yet incomplete.
Fur it must be understood that the usual
platform will be relegated to make room for
that of the warrior who about that time will
return from the front covered with laurcI3
and medals. This glamour will make the
average political clap-trap look like fifteen
cents. We have experienced these coHdi-
tons before, and we think it opportune to
warn the slate-makers to go slow.
Tariff and taxes will be dead numbers
when the new issues are put in motion, and
we would say that the prospects are that no
man will have ghost of a chance for the
big Offices unless he brings back from the
front at least d6Zen scars.
We know that suggestion Of this kind
will put heavy work on the enlistment Off.
GERS, and that we will risk some OF our big
tnen, burt it is just one more hardship that
war has forced on U.s.
For the next quarter of a century wal
record will be sine qua non. Now is {
splendid time to begin making it.

The last three weeks have brought to
the world some idea OF the Internal discon-
tent that prevails in Germany. While the
present extent Of the dissatisfaction cannot
be measured there seems to be no reason to
doubt that the German masses are beginning
to get clear understanding of the weak
ness Of the kaiser's policies. That it will
not require much further agitation to de-
velop a revolution is the general opinion.

why could not the United States put mil

ALW AVS ON THE JOB

The program mapped out by Governor
Pleasant for the special session is receiving
prompt and favorable consideration by the
the general assembly. The members seem
inclined to promptly enact all the war meas
ures suggested by the executive. The ses-
cion would be one of perfect harmony except
for the stir created by the prohibitionists in
an effort to inject their schemes into the
proposed legislation.
The project to make Rapides parish dry
has aroused local members and there has
been some sharp discussion of the matter.
You can depend on a prohibitionist to
edge in no matter what the circumstances
may be. 1t does look like the anti-liquor
man could afford to be little discreet when
sentiment is going his way. We will soon
have world prohibition, if we can keep the
fanatic quiet and give natural laws q chance
to work out the solution.

The Press Of the north is getting but
little consolation out Of the race clash in

point, it is not general in the south to infiict
wholesale punishment. The actual perpe-
