Sty S-- ch INSURGENCY. era Last week the editor of this re paper attended the extra session th: of the Legislature at Baton Rouge col during the election of the United po States Senator and was present at the "gab'fest" which preceded the pr balloting. th' We left home thinking that du there was something to the move- Pr ment called insurgency and looked for an arraignment of the regular to democratic leaders that would make them "sit up and listen." Our idea was that their following was a formidable factor and that a fair percentage of the democratic n voters were in the revolt. at We found nothing like this to p, be the case. A train load of b( Broussard's constituents had been hauled from the sugar belt to boost "Cousin Bob" for Senator. A few is of the new set of democrats of the B C. Ilarrison Parker type had fore- tc gathered to see the fight, but the regulars calmly ignored them and g . went placidly on with the business b for which they had come together. a An analysis of the situation has b : convinced us that the insurgents ' are armbitiovs politicians who are e iseeking a place and that the peo- . :-I:ple who constitute the rank and ?:file of the democratic party are ;: '..very largely in the majority and iare satisfied with the state of :affairs. c `:The bulk of the people" are not r =in favor of the insurgent move- f :nent. - -- --1 IP you expect to vote in. the si next general election or the prim. a:,ry that precedes it you MUST pay your poll tax .to the sheriff before midnight of December 31st.

Farwell and is self explanatory: During the past week a few of the friends of the late Senator Samuel Douglas McEnery met to consider how properly to honor the memory of that most worthy son of Louisiana. I was made chairman of this meeting and charged with the duty of appealing to the people of the State for funds wherewith to pur. chase a lot in the Metairie Cemet ery and to erect over his remains a stone inscribed with a su:itable record of his services; it being felt that the most unselfish way to ac complish this purpose was by popular subscription. This is written and published to prepare our people, so that both those who are moved by a sense of duty and those who esteem it a privilege may quickly respond.
