The Solid South.

From the Shreveport Cdncdsidn.1
The leaders of the Republican party
have met in convention in Chicago.
formulated platform which Is Sec
tional and unnecessarily abusive of
President Wilson, who is held account
able for the COMMISSIONS and cOmmi-
sions for which others are chargable.
1t is conceded that President Wilson
as Il human and a mortal has failed III
the realization Of some of his plans
and anticipations. but his record. in
It's entirety. will by contrast compare
favOrably with the most illustriOus of
the presidents of this nation. Neither
his name nor his fame can be furnished
by the invectives Of men who are
moved by the ranking of the extremity
of jealousy The Democracy did not
escape the vileness of some of the Re-
publican leaders. Such is politics. at
least as proclaimed by leaders of the
Grand Old Party.
Is it surprising that the South should
remain solid? What would profit any
state of the South to become an ally of
the Republicans of the North?
II the Republican leaders had been
wise and would have accorded justice
to the South instead Of trying to force
upon them the equality of the races,
probably some of the border states.
such as Kentucky. would have respond
ed but the South has been strength
ened in its solidarity since the Repub-
lican denunciation of President Wilson
and the Democracy by this Republican
convention.
The Solid South must in self-defencp
and for self protection remain united
since the intelligent people Of the South
are fully alive to all evils and all dan
gers of this party's domination.
The Solid South at the next election
for President will record solid vote
for Democracy and for the standard
bearer of the National Democracy The
present indications are favorable for
another four-year term of Democratic
rule.

Public Efficiency.

From the Monroe yers-Sfar.l
Governor Parker Intends to prove
that political office. like any other
that is held, should lie made an avenue
for public efficiency. He has set an
example that all of us might do well to
follow. 1t IS to be hoped the Governor
will continue to prove an example for
work and efficiency as the leader of the
people of the state and we feel certain
he will do this. We need big men I'm
big positions and one Of the proofs OF
their higness is their Willingness to
work. During the last few years some
Of our public men have set good ex-
amples of this kind. They have worked
bard. But Governor Parker seems to
lie a pioneer in return to JeffersOnian
simplicity. He rises early. works late
and advocates simple. honest reforms
such as the masses of the people are
In need of.
