TWO PROMINENT PAPERS AN
NOUNCE FOR STUBBS
Two prominent country newspap
ecr added their weight to the over
whelminz support, of Colonel Stubbs
in their editions out this week. One
is a prominent North Louisiana pa
per, "The Caldwell Watchman," and
the other a prominent South Louisi
ana paper, "The New Era," published
by E. V. Strother, at Eunice, St. Lar.
dry Parish.
In speaking of the campaign the
Caldwell Watchman sand"
"Pursuing our policy of stating out
position on all public questions and
issues which effect the people of
Louisiana and believing that we owe
it to our subscribers to state our po
sition in the pre3ent gubernatorial
race, the Watchman this week for
mrally declares its support to our
neighbor and friend, Colonel Frank
P. Stubbs, of Monroe.
"The Watchman to-day is the same
Democratic journal it has always
Seen and its present editorial staff,
believes now as it has always believed
that the hnpe and salvation, pros-;
perity and advancement of the State
of Louisiana and of our entire south
_ ad lies in the Democratic party. It'

the trying times of the reconstruction

KEEP THE RECORD STRAIGHT I
"The West Felician True Demo-I

posed Mr. John M. Parker four years
ago as a ProgressiveRepublc, now 1
is supporting him. It finds, however,'
a good friend is going to vote for
Colonel Stubbs 'because he is a dem
oerat'."
"We must remind our friend that
Mr. Parker campaigned for Weodrow
Wilson's second election, and was
therefore. recognized Natonailly as a
Democrat."
This same statement has been made
by L. E. Thomas and sandry other
office holders and "has-beens" who
three years and a half ago were bias
phemnig Mr. Parker all over the
State of Louisiana as a dangerous
e nemy who, if he was elected, might
turn the State over to the Republi
cans--even in three months, we be
lieve Mr. Thomas feared.
But, as a matter of fact, the state
ment is not true. Mr. Parker did not
stamp the country in 1916 as a Dem
ocrat for President Wilson. Mr. Park
er was not registered as a Democrat.
He was not a Democrat then, what
ever he may be now.
Only a short while before he had
been nominated for Vice-President
by the National Progressive Conven
tion, Mr. Roosevelt and his friends
were making a desperate attempt to
intimidate the Republicans into a re
amalgamation with the Progressive
offshoot of the Republican party,
Mr. Roosevelt as the candidate of both
, ftlionr and. if the movement had
succeeded, Mr. Parer would have
suppored Mr. Roosevelt, even on the,
Republiccan ticket, and would have
done everything in his power to bring
about the defeat of President Wilson.
But the old Republican guard stood
- adamant against a compromise with.
s Mr. Roosevelt, Mr. Roosevelt quit the
Progressive party and went back to.
his old love; Judge Hughes was nom
S!nted by the Republicans and Mr.
SParker was left as the tall end of the
headless Progressive ticket, and hence
its most conspleous representative.
Mr. Parker believed that the Pro-!
s gressive party had been betrayed; in,
s ft to use his then expressior : "He
p had been taken up a blind alley and
loft,.' and be refused to follow jds

for Mr. Wilson, since they had no
where elu to go except to Mr. fges
and t.h old liHane epublican Part.
Mr. Parker, even whi supporting
President Wilson, declared in every
