. RETIRE. FROM FARM

Our true friend Christ Brick
from Foothills township was in the
city Tuesday night looking. happier
than we had ever seen him before,
and his friends Immediately sus-
picioned that he had got hooked up
with some fair damsel, and would
be living in. married bliss during
the balance of his life. 1t didn't
take Christ long to tell his friends
what had happened, and he told
them while he was not a married
man yet, he might man of that
kind before long. The reason for
all this happiness was the fact that
Christ had during the fore part. of
the week sold all of his farming
equipment to Rolla Gee of Flaxton,
and had rented his place to the
same gentleman for three years.
Christ will stay on the place till
spring to look after the live stock,
but with the. first signs Of spring will
leave, and is not saying where he is
going. He says the farm will take
care of itself, and he. himself will
work wherever he gets the biggest
wages. Christ is now 46 years old.
He came to Burke county when he
was 26 years old, and put In the
best part Of his life in Foothills
township--on his farm. There were
many Joys and many SORROWS con-
nected with these 20 years, but
there was hard work all the time
and not as much money as there
might have been. Christ saw
chance now, where he could clean
up, pay every cent he owed In the
world and still have.his place clear.
and he did this. He is now free
to roam wherever. he chooses, and
told us that he felt better than he
had since he was a kid. r

The Campaign For Governor
Opens.

The campaign for the nomination OF
Governor opened in earnest at Hot
Wells on 4th of this month. From
the utterance of the candidates who
will not only be interesting, but 1;
bids fair to be full of pepper. Each
spoke we Judge that the campaign
candidate informed his hearers that
the political welfare Of Louisiana Ia
in great danger Of the dominance OF
the New Orleans political ring. led
by Behrman and Robert Ewing. They
united in proclaiming that the ring
must be. destroyed "in order to sava
the State" And naturally each one
of them endeavored to convince his
hearers that he was the proper per.
son to be selected to bring about this
destruction. In other words, the
battle cry of each is: Down with the
ring by voting for me-"
The personal education is always
prominent among those who seek pc.
litical honors. Few of them can
see clearly beyond their nearest hor-
lion of their thought-self None will
deny that the autocratic power and
methods of the New Orleans ring sys-
TEN should be destroyed. or at least
confined to New Orleans itself, pro-
vided that its people are favorable to
such political methods. But 1t Is
almost certain that the opponents of
the present political system cannot
nationally hope to succeed by run
ming plurality of persons against
the ring candidate. The ring always
plays politics to win. The reformers
are about to make the same Old mis-
take-dividing their strength between
several candidates. and. thus weak
eneG. running losing race.
IL these candidates. who claim that
the defeat of the ring is impera-
tive for the safety of the State, are
really actuated by unselfish patrio-
tism, they will be willing to forego
their personal ambitions and unite
on one candidate, fight, follow and
support earnestly one leader against
the common enemy. We know that
this is difficult of accomplishment
now-especially as each reform can
didate honestly believes that he is
the one instrument favored by fate
to destroy the ring and save the
State.
