Almost Immediately an unemploy-

notary public's office and took the
same oath, on the theory the office
OF governor had been vacated.
Meantime, Long had ordered AL

the state senate, sworn in as lieu
tenant governor. He cut Cyr off
the state payroll
Yesterday two more native sons
took the oath.
L. D. Smith, also UNEMPLOYED
and also from Shreveport, grabbed
himself an office as he put it.
I'm not related to any of the
present governors, and am not on
the state payroll. That qualities
me- he added.
No sooner done than Grocer E. II.
Reed of Shreveport announced he
would also take the oath. Three
OF a kind beats a pair. even in
louisiana he announced.
While the oaths were flying and
Cyr talked of yellow backs and
Long discoursed on potlikker and
cornpone, the three negroes sched-
uled to be hanged today, awaited
action.
Long said the executions would
proceed as planned"
Cyr said he would decide today"
whether to issue stays until I have
a chance to study the case on their
merits"
Sheriff Coyerdale of Monroe said
as far as he was concerned the ex-
ecution scheduled there would take
place as ordered.
