The Presidents Reply to the Pope's
Peace Proposal.

Washington, Aug. %. -Tele-
grams from all parts of the coun-
try began pouring into the White
House today, approving the pres
ident's reply to Pope Benedict's
peace proposals. The reply is
regarded here as finally settling
the question of dealing with the
present German rulers, uncon-
quered or uncurbed at home.
The president makes it clear that
lasting and durable peace can be
negotiated only on a, complete
understanding with the German
people, and NOT alone on the un-
stable guarantee of the existing
German government.
Upon the motion of Senator
Brady, who characterized it as
the last farewell to the autocracy
of the world, President Wilson'S
reply to the Pope's peace propos-
al was ordered printed in the
congressional record.
The text of the Presidents re-
ply is to hand too late for us to
print in this issue of the Chroni-
Gle, but we shall endeavor to
print it next week, or at least a
synopsis of its chief points.

Council of Defense to Organize OF
Sept. Is.

~F~~ 49,
Governor Pleasant has issued
his proclamation declaring Satur-
day, Sept. Is, to be organization
day for the Grant Parish Council
of Defense. The parish organi-
cation is to be a unit in the State
Council of Defense, which has
for its purpose to aid in the pro-
duction and conservation of food
stuffs and the practice of econo-
my along all lines. This is an
essential and patriotic movement
in which all can join.
Mr.. B. F. Thompson. of Alex
andria. is to be in Colfax on the
18th to address our citizens in
behalf of the organization, and
also to help in the formation of
a council. 1t is hoped a good
crowd will be on hand, and that
as many citizens from a distance
will attend as possible.

for which he would make ample
apology and correction in the
next issue of the Enterprise. He
wrote a-letter to the Grant par
ish board acknowledging the
gravity of his mistake. saying
that the whole thing was an error
for which he offered an apology
and would print his apology and
correction in this weeks paper.
Not a breath of suspicion of
wrong has prevailed here in
Grant as to the integrity, patriot
ism and absolute fairness of our
board, and why and how it is the
Enterprise could ever have re-
ceived any such impression is a
mystery.

Believes in Oil to the Extent of $1,000.

Believes in Oil to the Extent of $1,000.
Mr.. R. C. Potter, vice presi-
dent Of the Three Rivers Oil Co.,
of Kansas City, Mo-, who was
here two weeks ago with an eye
open to business, and while here
made a deal with the Nantachi
Oil Co. for an interest in their
holdings of 1870 acres held un-
der Oil leases. Since his return
home he has sent the Nantachi
Oil Co. a check for 100000 as
the share of Three Rivers Oil
Co. in the exploitation of the
Nantachi Oil Co.'S. holdings.
Mr.. Potter was particularly i'm
pressed with the fact that good
indications of oil were developed
both at the well drilled on Lake
Iatt and also at the one drilled
on Lake Nantachi. In common
with the people hereabouts, he
regards the territory between
the two lakes as being fine for
development. The Nantachi Oil
Co. is getting ready to sink well
in that territory at once.
Mr.. Potter is president of the
Red River Land and Cattle Co.,
which bought the Bynum planta-
ton of 3705 acres seven miles
southeast of Colfax, and we un-
derstand that he also intends to
have wells bored on and near this
property for the purpose of de-
veloping oil and gas in that
region.
Since writing the above we
learn that the Nantachi Oil &
Gas Co. have tentatively selected
the point to sink their next well
at or near Paul Roshto's place,
in section 80, township s north,
range A west. 1t is expected
that this point will be definitely
agreed upon. work to begin in a
few days.

Parish Superintendent of Education

Foresight in purchasing goods in ad-
vance of rising market is sound busi-
ness sense, but business firm which
exercises this foresight and then gives
the public the advantage in price is to
be classed as patriotic, particularly in
these times of inflated prices. Such is
the case with c. H. Tumminello, who
has protected his patrons in the pur-
chase of large quantity of school sup
plies, which he will sell at the prices
prevailing before the advance. For in
stance, tablets now worth loo will be
sold at sc, pencils now worth SC each
will be sold 2 for SC. and 10c crayons
will be sold at &c. These prices will
obtain only SO long as the present sup
ply lasts, and it will be to the advant-
age of all to buy before the present
stock is exhausted.

Our Republican Representative Demo
cratic Government.


Among the compliments paid
this editor over our address be-
fore the Louisiana Press Associ-
alton April "a, 1917, at Alexan-
dria, there are none that we ap-
preciate more than that of our
old friend. Bedford E. Woods, of
Montgomery, printed in this is
sue of the Chronicle.
With the freedom of a friend
he takes US to task. about what
he is pleased to call our harsh
criticism of Socialists, |. w. w.,
etc. He insists that they have
many brainy and patriotic men,
and for that reason, forsooth,
their vagaries and opposition to
American institutions should be
passed over without comment.
Well, we don't think that is ex-
actly the way to combat error.
We have some pretty good Soci-
alist and |. w. w. friends, and
we feel very kindly toward them
but that don't prevent our say
ing that they are mistaken when
they become marplots and disor-
ganizers in the best government
the world ever saw. They should
help to strengthen the govern
ment. not undermine it.
Friend Woods also seems dis
turbed over our statement that a
pure Democracy is mob. If he
will read over our statement as
to the difference between our
Representative Republican form
of government and a pure Dem
ocracy, where the people ruled
directly and mad no Representa-
tives, he will see our meaning
very plainly.
The leixcons tells US that the
word Democrat" is derived
from the Greek. Demos, the peo-
pie, and Kratos, power-the peo-
pies power.
Republican" is the noun for
believers in a republic. 1t is de-
rived from the Latin, Res, a
thing, and Publica, public-a
thing public.
Ours is a Republican epresen-
tative government, ruled by the
people, but it is not a pure Dem
ocracy, because the people only
rule by or through their repre-
sentatives. We have the chief
element of Democracy, but it is
restrained so that the people can
only rule by representatives. and
danger of anarchy and mob law
by the people is thus avoided.

Outrageous SANDER Nipped in the
Bud.


The Adjutant General has or
dered an investigation as to
charges of corruption, on the
part of the local board of exemp-
ton in Grant parish. The clerk
of court who is a member of the
board, is said to have taken in as
much as two hundred dollars per
day for filling out exemption
blanks. This is astounding if
true, because he was simply prac-
Using law before his own court,
and had to pass on the validity
of his own work. This matter
should be probed to the very bot
tom, and if any person is guilty
they should be penned for life
without delay. 1t is also claimed
that men got exemption because
OF their political pull, which is
just as bad. = Mansfield Enter
