an announcement from the New
Iberia Chamber of Commerce, to

enforcing the tick eradication law.
The local Chamber Of Commerce

urging the stock rsisers OF Iberia
Parish to be on hand when the
fireworks begin. Below is Governor
Parker's appeal to the stock meD:
TO TIE LIVE STOCK RAISERS
OF LOUISIANA:
A number of parish officials
openly defy the state law ID regard
to dipping.
The state would be absolutely
tick free within SIX months if We
conscientiously dipped all of our
cattle and strictly obeyed dipping
regulations. Politics and lack OF
proper attention have cost ell of
our parishes q great deal Of money.
With the hearty cooperation Of
the judge aud district attorney,
We would certainly DO tick free in
= short time. We must either
observe the law and 60 tick free,
or else the law should be abolished
The time has come for action.
A meeting of the live stock men is
called in Gsrlg Hall, Baton Rouge,
at 1000 A. NJ. on Tuesday. August

Forget It-If you see tall fellow ahead of a crowd, a leader of men, know of a tale whose mere telling aloud, would cause his proud head to be mournfully bowed, it's pretty good plan to forget it. If you know of skeleton hidden away in closet, and guarded, and kept from the day in the dark, and whose showing, whose sud- den display, would cause grief and sorrow and lifelong dismay. it's a pretty good plan to forget it. If you know of a thing that will darken the joy of a man or woman. girl or a boy, that will wipe out a smile, or the least way annoy, or Eghtness of heart and good spirits destroy, it's pretty good plan to forget it.

Tragedy-Silently, with emotions too deep for tears, she laid the still white form beside the others which had gone before. She did not cry, she did not weep. Such a moment was too precious to be spent in idle weep ing. But finally nature prevailed and she raised up her voice, cried loud and long. Those who stood near cried with her. until the earth resounded with their mourning. But what was the use of it all? For tomorrow she will lay another egg.

was small pox. In his opinion,

War Memorial In China.

At Its last meeting the Shanghai war
memorial committee considered the
various suggestions for civic memo
rial to those OF the allied citizens who
fought and died In the war, and 1t
was unanimously agreed to erect a
cenotaph at the junction of the Bund
and Avenue Edward VII. The tram
lines will have to be diverted to either
side of the memorial. Shanghai archi-
tects are to be asked to submit de-
signs for the cenotaph. and presumably
they will base them upon home mod.
els, with due allowance for local con-
dltiOns and space at command. Pro-
vision will of course be made for roll
of honor. as complete as 1t can pos
sibly be made. The memorial will be
paid for by public subscription. with
the possible addition of grants from
the foreign and French municipal
councils.-North China Herald.

PROGREssIvES

A large portion of the voters of
every community are independent
voters. They seek no Office and
acknowledge no party allegiance.
Less than one-half of the voters
of Colorado have ever taken part
in any primary election. And
probably one-half of those who
have taken part in these elections
were induced to vote, not for par
ty reasons, but to assist some
friend who was running on one
of the tickets.
But there must be some reason
for more than one-half of the vot-
ers failing to vote at any of these
elections and taking no interest
in the nomination of their candi-
dates for office. The only logical
explanation of this lack of inter-
est in the primary election is that
the voters who remained away
from the polls, were progressive
or independent voters and did not
care to align themselves with
either of the old parties and felt
that the issues involved did not
affect any vital interest.
If this assumption is correct,
an opportunity presents itself to
this class of voters in the COM
ing primary election, where they
can do much in the way of ad-
vancing constructive legislation
and progressive ideals by voting
in the Democratic primaries.
For the first time in the history
of primary elections in this state
a well defined issue is offered to
the voter in the Democratic prim-
ary. And that issue is, shall the
Democratic party of this state be
progressive party, devoted to the
peoples interest, or shall it's pur-
pose be to retard the wheels of
progress and to aid the big inter-
ests?

FIRST PLACE ON THE TICKET

Because a candidates name oc-
cupies first place on the primary
ballot is not in itself any evidence
that he is the best candidate, or
any reason why he should be the
choice of the voter. If the voters
follow the lead of the assembly
it would be better to let them
nominate in the first place, in
stead of going to the trouble and
expense of holding an election.
The purpose of the primary law
is to allow the people to select
their own candidates for office.
Nominations made by conventions.
under the old system, were often
brought about by a lavish use of
money, or were slated by polite
ians, or were the result of barter
and trade among them. Under
our present system the first place
on the ticket is sometimes obtain
ed in the same way. 1t follows
that the candidate first named on
the ticket is as apt to be the poor
est candidate named as he, is to
be the best. Then again, candi-
dates designated by an assembly
are named on the spur of the mom-
ent and oftimes are but little
known. The time that elapses be-
tween the assembly and the elec-
tion gives them an opportunity to
give the people their views upon
public questions. If they avail
themselves of this opportunity the
people will be in a position at the
primary to render an intelligent
verdict as to who is the best can
didate. The candidate who evades
the issue by refusing or failing
to give his views on public mat.
