Dear Sirs:
Now that | have returned to the city
and can view in retrospect the busy
two weeks have just concluded with
the Art Colony, certain things in con-
nection with it assume large proper
tions in the perspective.
At the outset your willingness to
cooperate and the hearty goodwill you
extended towards making the enter
prise of Misses Sompayrac and Brea-
zeale success, was striking feature
of civic consciousness. l do not know
to whom should be given the credit for
the idea and for the hard work that
went to create the historic tableaux
that were featured on the night of the
Fourth of July. Possibly these tab
leaux were shared in by so many that
credit belongs to the whole community,
but in any case, I wish you to know
that the art colony of strangers, in
cluding myself, felt personally grateful
and were struck with the civic CO.
operation in making so difficult q
success and a pleasure to so
many peop:e.
l felt kindness and helpfulness on
every side but in nothing more than in
the giving of the club rooms for the
final exhibition and the generous offer
ing OF prizes and scholarships not only
for this season but to insure the sue
cess of the future.
Moreover, l learned that my friends
Of the art colony idea came from dis
tant cities to lend the encouragement

Second Choice Votes

Former Lieutenant Governor
T. G. Barret of Shreveport, in an
interview in the Shreveport Times,
furnishes a very clear and timely
Interpretation of the law on the
subject of second choice votes at
the primary election, as follows:
"There seems to be considerable con-
fusion" Mr.. Barret said, ''in the
minds of the public with reference to
the provision of the law with reference
to the requirements Of = primary elec-
tion. Until recently the law made no
provision for what il called q second
choice balloting and in the general elec-
ton the voter was entirely ignorant of
the requirements or the value Of the
second choice vote. In order to clarity
the matter certain sections of the pri:
mary election law were amended in
the general assembly of 1920.
Questions. frequently asked are:
Are you compelled in voting to indi.
cate both your first and second choice?
AuS 0uOWSG l0s NO. xVu VOVS your
selection for the first Office and then
you may Indicate your second choice
but you are not compelled to do SO.
Act 2l0 of 1920 uses these words:
" In all cases where there is to be
only one candidate for q
particular Office the elector shall indI-
cate his first choice, and without being
required 50 to do, may Indicate q sec-
ond choice, and the ballot shall be
printed accordingly.
$50 that it is plain that you are not
required to indicate any second choice
unless you want to.
Another question frequently asked
is whether or not you can Indicate that
yol second choice Is the same AZ your
first choice. The answer to that is
edly, no. The same act spe
cifically provides that you cannot vote
for the same man for second choice
that you have already indicated to be
your FIRST choice, and it further pro
vides. and this is important, that If
you should vote for candidate and
Indicate in your ballot that he is also
POUR second choice you have lost your
vote entirely. The commissioners are
iirsctei to throw the vote ont a. q
spoiled ballot.

\ Ma,t,. of Crave In7,-tllce !

The grand old parish of Natchi-
toches bears a most enviable re-
cord, one that has set the standard
for many in the State in regard to
certain matters: a record of carry
ing almost unanimously every tax
when it is a matter of education,
whether to build school houses
and everything pertaining thereto
or roads SO that our children can
reach these schools in safety.
We are on the eve of one, if not
the most important school elec-
tions ever called, one that is
farther reaching than any that has
ever preceded it, inasmuch as it
concerns every educable child in
the parish, and for that reason
every man and woman should be
vitality interested.
This election, set for August
23rd, the same day that we are
going to elect a Supreme Court
Judge, IS for the purpose of yot-
ing a 3-nill tax to maintain the
public schools of the parish
which tax is an absolute necessity,
otherwise they will not be able to
operate the coming session for
absolute lack of money with which
to pay the teachers.
This tax MUST BE CARRIED, for
Natchitoches cannot afford to neg
lect her children. or as a matter of
pride, standing foremost in educa-
tional ranks, the seat of one of
the leading institutions of learning
in the State, she cannot afford to
lose her high standing in educa-
tional circles.
An object lesson can be learned
of practically a similar situation
in Jeff Davis Parish, when an On
enviable precedent was established
last week by Jennings refusing to
vote a 2.mill school tax needed for
the same purpose we need ours.
A fight against some of the
members caused its defeat, but
our people are too broad minded
and far seeing to fail to do their
duty by their children because
they do not approve of some of
the administering policies, and can
not afford to jeopardize and CON-
plicate the situation by 6efeating
this tax.
Nothing disturbs the harmony
and arrests the progress of COM
more than lack of uulty
in school matters and it behooves
our pc ople to think of their chill
dren's interests, purely and simply,
and give a big maj,rity if not
VOC III favor of the
3-mill tax when August 23rd
arrives. se,-5s.t.szs

show.
This may not seem remarkable to
you, but it does seem so to me, and
accordingly take the liberty of express
ing my pleasure in these things which
| observed and Of aiding my sense of
personal obligation that the subject
which came to Natchitoches to rep
resent, the appeal of which is SO tran
scendental as usually to attract little
interest, was 50 well ana generously
supported by the citizens of Natchi-
toches during the session just closed.
When such support can be counted
upon the future of the movement in
augurated by these young ladies Is
sure of useful continuance.
Yours very truly,

Judge Porter's Candidacy

In another column will be found
a letter from Hon. John d. Will
kinson to the Shreveport Times
published in that paper a few days
ago.
The voters in the entire dis
trict will be greatly interested in
the subject matter of the letter.
SO far we have seen no reply from
Judge Land to it.
The insinuation contained in
Judge Lands platform directed
against Judge Porter as being a can
didate of the corporate influences
IN the district is worthy of con-
sideration. Not only because of
the faIsity of the inslnuation con-
tanned IN Judge Lands circular
but because it is vely ugly
method of campaigning for the
high office of Supreme Judge.
Judge Porter to our knowledge
during the many years that he
practiced law at this bar never
represented a corporation in any
litigation or otherwise. His rec
ord both on the bench of the
District Court and of the Court Of
Appeals stands out as a fearless,
just and fair judge. He knew
neither friend nor foe in the per
formance of his duty and what
endeared him to the lawyer and
layman whether he lost or won
his case, before Judge Porter.
was the fact that he felt thai
Judge Porter had been honest and
sincere in his decision, the loser
felt no sting or resentment against
the courts decision.
We heard a few days ago sew
eral lawyers here discussing the
record of the several candidates
for Supreme Judge. the discussion
growing out of the circular letter
issued by Judge Land which one
held in his hand and Was reading
from, we overheard this gentle
man say he had had before Judge
Porter, both as a district Judge
and judge of the Court of Appeals,
many. many cases against rail
roads involving the most impor-
tant questions of law, these cases
ranged from suits for killing
stock, damage to freight, over
charges on freight bills to injury
and death of passengers or work
men, and he had been moderately
successful in the various suits, but
that IN no c4se, one Of which he
recalled the trial had lasted . full
week. had there been the least
evidence of partiality shown hy
Judge Porter. and the cases in
which he was interested that went
to the Court of Appeals for final
trial, there had been nothing in
the decisions Of that court, whether
rendered by Judge Porter or by
the other Judges. which left on
his mind, whether he won or lost
his case, suspicion that the court
had shown the least partiality for
or against his client.
There was unanimitv of opinion
by the gentlemen engaged in the
discussion as to the high standing,
fearlessness, imDartial,ty, sincere
ty, honesty and integrity of Judge
Porter as a man and as Judge.
As q man he stands out in iii,
purity of his life, in his family
relations, as a citizen, the peer o:
any. AS a lawyer, US a Judge, no
man in the state is better qualified
in ability, character, SINGER :ty,
honesty and integrity than Judge
