The two most contemplate and
abominable politicians in the United
States are the two alleged Democrat
ic Senators from Louisiana-with the
possible exception of Henry Cabot
Lodge, Of Massachusetts, and Jim
Reed, of St. Louis and other German
settlemnts in the State of Missouri.
These alleged Democratic Louisiana
Senators would sell their souls to the
Devil for $3.50 hundred tax on for
eign sugar. These sugar senators
voted for the Fordney-Cummins tar

DOLLARS in custom duties-and
take THREE BILLION DOLLARS

GUMS TIME NOT UP /!

Editor Southern Herald. K
Mr.. H. V. Wall in his cam
paign letters to the voters gives
notice that the time is up for
Mr.. Quin's tenure in office as
our Congressman. He seems to
be unconscious of The fact that,
that is a matter for the voters
Of this district to decide. He
assumes to proclaim an edict to
the people that would be pusum-
p!ivus and embarrassing to the
Kaizer of Germany or7itof the
Gar of Russia to proclaim. Mr..
Wall has not convinced anyone
but himself that Quin's term in
office is up, and the voters on
August 18th will go inform Mr..
| Wall. For ten years Mr.. Quin
has been weighed in the balances
and found to be up to the full
standard. lie has been proven
to be true and loyal in every
instance.
Mr.. Wall places great en-
phases on his effort in obtain.
ing an education.
But few if any yonng men
ever had as hard a struggle as
did Percy E. Quin ia obtaining
his education; he taught school,
sold books ard picked cotton in
vacation, and denied himself
everything except the bare ne
cessities OF life. The following
will illustrate Mr.. Wallis pQsiti-
OIL in the races for Congress.

Voter, what do you think of a

The misrepresentation seems to-
consist in my statement that Chan

October 18th or 16, 1918, and no
commission was issued until Apr.
| 9, 1914, yet he drew salary the
latter half of October 1913. AT
Port Gibson on June 18th, Judge
Cutrer said that he took office
about the same time in which
Judge Brine became Circuit Judge
which was the 1st of January,
1914, and that he had served about
eight years, and had only been
reversed about eight or nine times
by inc Supreme Court.
