CHOSEN BY VOTERS LOUISIANA
TO KILL RING RULE AND SAVE
THE STATE POLITICAL SERFDOM
John M. Parker
John M. Parker Victorious,
Vindicated and Leader of the
Democracy State of Louisiana
Returns As Far As They Could Be Obtained Correctly
and Other Election Ncws and Notes of Doings
at the Polls in Covington.
Hon Lewis L. Morgan of the Parker State Campaign Committee.
was one of the happiest men at the courthouse, Tuesday hight. The only
word that he had been able to pronounce distinctly for; the past hnonth
was "Parker," and if you wanted him to pay any attention to you, you
had to know how to say "Parker" pretty plainly yourseff.
But when the returns began to come in froif parish iboxes he melted
into praises of the friends who had stood by him and whh had helped him
to say "Parker" louder than he had ever said it before.
Ellis, Mackie, Warner, Schonberg, Moses, Dr. Mayie, and a host
of other strong Parker supporters crowded the Parker headjurers an
rejoiced as the Parker majorities came in.
Chairman E. G. Davis of the Parish Parker Committee, probably kept
the altest hours that night that he had in years, but you could not have
gotten him away before the returns were all in.
Friday night Parker's lead was put at 18,000 and still growing. The
votes counted to date are 89,771. Parker 45,097; Stubbs, 35,674.
Y
The most bitterly fought election
in the history of Louisiana, unless
the lottery fight be excepted, closed
- Tuesday evening, January 20. Prob
1 ably nc harder fight was made in
the parish than in the third ward at
f Covington. Both Parker and Stubbs
5 campaign committees had listel
every voter and used every means
to bring him within the fold, with
the usual result that both have an
idea that there are quite a number of
liars in the third ward. There was
no disturbance and no rough work
of any kind reported. The electan
was quietly and fairly conducted at
the polling booth, and boxes froln
the country wards came in on much
better time than usual.
There was but one ward (the 5th)
that gave Stubbs a majority, the
vote being, Parker, 53; Stubbs, 112.
Slidell (the 9th ward) was the ban
ner Parker poll. The vote was,
Parker, 223; Stubbs, 66. Parker
carried 52 parishes, and Stubbs 12.
The ring majority in New Orleans
was cut down to less than 4000.
J. E. Glisson made a remarkable
run for clerk of court. Without sup
port of any kind save his own ef
forts, he canvassed the parish on
foot, his campaign expenses being
tess than $70. He was beaten by
W. E. Blossman by 315 votes.
It is whispered that evidence has
been secured in one case of vote-buy
ing and that prosecution will follow.
The ring's defeat in the state and
its losses in New Orleans indicate
that at the coming municipal election
it will be wiped out of existence en
tirely. The parish vote is:

An amusing incident of the elec
tion Tuesday night was the fact that
no response could be gotten eithe'*
from the Stubbs headquarters or Tae
Daily States late that night. ParJ
er headquarters In New Orleans was
on the job and kept busy answering
inquiries and giving out Parker ma
jorities, but. the Stubbs people Had
evidently pulled the cover over their
heads and gone to sleep. Finally a
,phone message came to Mr. Morgan
from the Covington Stubbs head
quarters inquiring for news of the
election. When asked who it was
Mr. Morgan said, "Heintz." During
the day Mr. Heintz had exhibited va
rious wonderful telegrams of 14,000
majority for Stubbs, and one young
man named Smith persisted in tak
ing several five dollar bets that
Stubbs would win, even after 'the re
turns had virtually decided for Mr.
Parker.

PARISH AFFAIRS
AND MATTERS
OF GENERAL
INTEREST
The Parish Fair Association
Holds Meeting and
Elects Officers.
J. H. WARNER
AGAIN PRESIDENT
Treen Advises Removal of
Wolves From Cattle by
Simple Process.
The Parish Fair Association elect
ed officers for the the ensuing year,
as follows: J. H. Warner, pres:
dent; C. E. Schon'berg, vice-prosi
dent; Karl Treen, secretary and gen
eral manager; E. G. Davis, treasurer;
W. P. Minckler, financial secretary,
the latter being a new office recently
created.
The president reported that he had
secured option on ten acres of laud
adjacent to our race track nad aero
plane field. The directors authoriz
ed him to close the deal. The aero
plane field will be prepared for use
not only during the Fair but as an
Air Station the year round. New
and larger cattle and horse barus
will be-built. A move is on to erect
a Woman's Building.
As last season was a good one for
our fair, under adverse conditions,
it is confidently expected that this
year's fair will by far eclipse any
fair held here in every department.
The secretary promiess a premium
list in February, so the people will
have ample time to plan and pro.
pare exhibits. Many changes and
improvements will be made to the
premium list this year. The fair is
mainly an agricultural institution.
The farmers are the ones to be bene
fitted most by it. They have been
in other places. The St. Tammany
farmers should plan right now to
take a large, active part. Then they
too will derive benefits. A
The natural and otherwise merite.i
optimism which the officers hold con
cerning the 1920 fair is heightened
by the fact that Slidell promises her p
hearty co-operation this year. She j4
has four directors on the board who st
will be notified of every meeting of
the directors, and we are counting on ac
material help from Slidell in making fr
this the best parish fair in Louisiana gi
in 1920, maintaining our lead over J2
the other parish fairs last year. ci

GOOD SEED.
Governor (Elect) Parker spoke of
the great importance of good seed.
It costs as much ot cultivate plants
from poor seed or to cultivate a poor
stand of plants as to attend to a
100 per cent stand of good plants
which have inherited good qualities
and will make the best fruitage. To
insure these results, first, select from
your growing and matured plants
which possess the beat qualities, and
then preserve the seed carefully un
til next planting season; or, second
ly, purchase seed from a reliable
source, varieties suited to your soil,
climate and market demands. In
this connection, I wish to say that
half-and-half cotton is tabooed and
will be cut in price this fall below
other short staple cotton.
Since there are many ways thru
which the vitality or germinating
power of seed may become lessened,
as by immaturity due to early frost
or diseased parent plant; insects, as
weevils; mold, caused by damp at
mosphere in winter, or diseased con
dition of the seed; unreliable seed
dealers from whom seed may be pur
chased; broken seed, due to thresh
ing or shelling machinery; foreign
or weed seed mixed in with good
seed, and since it' is impossible to
det~t many of these faulty condi
tions by mere examination, and, fur
ther, in view of the fact that a free
and reliable microscopic and germi
nation test can be. had by the State
Agricultural College, it is unwise to
plant untested seed.
The Agricultural Bureau of the
Covington Association of Commerce
will be glad to receive samples of
any variety of garden or field seei
for testing, forward this to the lab
oratories, and return the official re
port to the farmer. Farmers and
gardners should take advantage of
this offer as losses may be prevented
or profits doubled. If you contem
plate buying some seed it would be
wise to request a fair sample which
you could have tested before 'buying
your requirements. As this test
requires from one to three weeks,
depending on the germination period
of the seed, growers should take ad
vantage of this offer early.
KARL TREEN,
Agricultural Chairman.
Ever have a carouacle or "ri
Ing"? If you did not you have seen
people with them. One will pretty
near lay a fellow up. Now imaging
the condition if you had fifty at
them, just for a second, just lon~
enough to appreciate what your poor
cow is up against with from a hail
dozen to six dozen ox warbles or
wolves in its back. And you millk
that cow, and use her milk? At
least Sou feed her, and she should
be doctored. I doubt if she gives
enough milk to justify milking. At
any rate, you don't want to drink
the milk from a cow with fifty sores!
If she gives any milk, it Is on

Mr. D. H. Mason, BJlitor of The St. Tammany Farmer,
Covington, Louisiana.
My Dear Mr. Mason:-As a member of the Parker State Can
paign Committee, I desire to seize upon this opportunity to express
our sincere thanks to The St. Tammany Farmer for the magnificent
manner in which it so ably espoused the cause led by Mr. Parker.
Your splendid paper, from the very beginning of the fight, fAied
shot after shot into the Ring's vulnerable spots, and met and de
stroyed, with logic and truth, every argument ddvanced against the
candidacy of Mr. Parker.
The St. Tammany Farmer did more to mold public sentiment 1*
favor of John M. Parker than any other known factor in this parish.
I also wish to express to the splendid citizenship of thli parish
our sincere gratitude for the loyal and unfaltering manner in which
they rallied to Mr. Parker's support. They soon realized that Mr.
Parker was making their fight, and, hence, supported him in a Way
unparalleled in the history of the parish.
With a feeling of implicit confidence in the wisdom of the collec
tive judgment expressed by the voters of Louisiana on the 20th day
of January, 1920, I remain,
Yours gratefully,
LEiWIS L. MORGAN.

Covington,. Louisiana.
Dear Mr. Mason:-In behalf of the St. Tammany Parker Cam
paign Committee, I want to thank you for the very able and effec
tive support you gave Mr. Parker's candidacy for Governor. We
feel that your unqualified and hearty support had much to do with
the crystalizing of Parker senthment which ultimately gave him
such a splendid majority in our parish.

A TRIBUTE TO YOUNG MEN It
NEW ORLEANS.
I Bernard McClosky and Esmonc
Phelps, city campaign managers foi
John M. Parker, made the followini
statement:
"We wish to pay tribute to the
scores of splendid young men, whc
from early morn to late at nighi
guarded the polls in the interest of
John M. Parker in the toughest pre
cincts of this city. Though greatly
outnumbered -by the Ring bullies,
who attempted to intimidate them,
and in a number of instances assault.
ed them, they stood unawed and in
sisted on the enforcement of the law
The credit for the maintenance of
order at the polls is due to them,
and not to the young men who sipped
tea with the Mayor at the City Hall,
or to the police, who not only failed
to enforce the law, but also actively
violated it in many instances. This
entire community should realize the
debt of gratitude it owes to these
courageous and patriotic fighters in
the cause of freedom."
WET AREAS CONTAIN THE MOST
FERTILE SOIL.
Wet areas in cultivated farm lands
usually are the most fertile when the
soil moisture is properly cofitrolled,
because generally they are depres
sions into which more or less of the
richest soil from surrounding fieids
has been washed. Farm drainagc
transforms these unproductite places
into highly productive land, thus in
creasing the profitable area and the
