Soldiers Cant Get
Ballot For Sept 10

BATON ROUGE, La, Aug. IT,
1t is the opinion Of Adjutant Cen
eral McCrory after wrestling with
the matter for several weeks. that it
is utterly impractical to carry out
the provisions of the act Of the extra
session of last year, providing for
taking the ballot of the soldiers of
the state in the army of the United
States.
The law provides that the adjutaEes
general shall furnish the address Of
these voters, who are soldiers, to the
secretary of state, and the adjutant
general says he cannot do this be-
cause he does not know them and
cannot find them.
If the adjutant general can't get
the addresses, then the secretary of
state cannot send the ballots and the
soldiers cannot vote.
It is the duty of the parish regis
trar of voters to furnish a list of sol
der voters to the adjutant general.
Few parish registrars sent in this list
and then could only give the camp
to which these men were sent. the
parish registrar getting these ad-
dresses from the local boards.
Practically all Of Louisiana's sol
diers were sent to Camp Pike and
Camp Beauregard, but none Of these
troops are there now, and the United
States government has said that in
no case will it furnish the address of
soldiers to the state, neither will it
forward ballots to these men.
''The law cannot be carried out, ("
says the adjutant general, and about
the only way the soldiers IN tne army
will get chance to vote in the Sep
timber primary is to come home.

CROWD TO HEAR SANDERS SECOND

Hundreds Unable To Gain Admittance When Bogalusa
Citizen Lauches Campaign No Time for Political

BATON ROUGE, Aug. 15.-For-
mer Gov. Jared Y. Sanders, of Boga-
lusa, opened his campaign for re-elec-
ton to congress from the Sixth Con-
gressional district Wednesday night
with war speech before an audience
that taxed the EIks Theatre to capac-
ity, and forced scores of both men
and women to remain outside, unable
to gain admission. The crowd rivaled
that which packed the same theatre
just one week before to hear William
Jennings Bryan,
Only once during an address that
lasted one hour and a quarter did
Gov. Sanders digress from his recital
of the nations war activities in which
he, as a congressman, had partici-
pated, to refer to Louisiana politics,
and to his own candidacy, and he pre-
faced this one reference with the
statement;
Il have neither the time nor the
inclination to discuss politics with
you tonight"

tain gentlemen would seriously OBJ

streets, after the meeting, as being
a covert rap at the New Orleans or
sganization.

either BY word or act" he said.
Neither the city organization, nor
the leaders were in mind. 1 had
reference to the whisky people Of
this state"
Gov. Sanders made no reference,
either by name or inference, to his
opponent Chas. E. Schwing. He never
spoke Of having opposition.
He did not refer to any of his polit-
ical achievements in this same hall,
which he had hired in the summer Of
1915, with "a view Of defeating the
constitutional convention, and which
he again hired early last May for the
purpose Of uring ratification upon
the legislature.
Makes War Keynote.
His speech was war. He made war
the keynote Of his candidacy and his
support Of the Wilson war admins
tration. In opening, after the ova-
ton had subsidized, he paid passing
tribute to the present legislature.
We ought to be proud of our leg
islature, for its ratification of the ma
tionaI prohibition amendment. It's
record is unique among the legisla-
tiures of this country. It is a body of
independent minds. They we're made
up in May; they came back in Au-
gust of the same opinion and voted
the same self convictions despite any
pressure that had been brought to
bear

are at war with the Prussian autoc-
raey said; s'Had I not voted for

'.Now, in my opinion, is no time for

what prevented me from running,

of group of colonies, Old Glory has
become the banner of a world power,
the emblem of the mightiest free people
that ever existed.
From generation to generation, since
Old Glory was born, flags have died,
but Old Glory has had new birth. The
white flag Of royal France and the
standard Of Napoleon have given way
to the tricolor, but Old Glory still
waves. From generation to generation
our flag is born anew, recreated In our
hearts, ever better loved and more
sacred In our eyes, because 1t is the
flag for which our heroes have died
and because 1t is the symbol of the
only government that can endure-a
government Of the people, by the
people and for the people. 1t is the
flag of no king or car or emperor, but
