The Transatlantic Elections,

To-day the elections in Pennsylva-
MIA begin, and while there will be
great excitement, if not something
worse, there, the whole country will
await with solemn pause the result of
those elections. They involve trc-
mendous issues, not only to us of the
South, but to the whole of the United
States. 1t is conflict between radi-
cal and conservative democracy. The
fo,mer seems to be in the ascenaancy,
and ifit prevail, our gioomiest antici-
pations, will be realised, we fear.

An Accident Open Wells,

One day last week John Mcclure,
jr., while covering ain unfinished we'll,
slipped and fell nearly to the bottom,
depth of ahout forty .feot, and lodg-
ed upon some curhiag which had been
let down i'll the well. l. came near
proving serious fall to tho young
man, although he escaped without any
broken bones. ft q. t.
In this connection it may beproper
to call attention to the danger to the
community from the open wells in va
pious parts of the town. Already a
horse and cows have fallen into these
pits, and it will be fortunate if some
person doesn't meet with similar ac-
cident. CAN nothing be done to so-
cure our citizens against the danger
from these open wells on vacant lots

The ATTEMPTED AssAssINATloN.-
The indianapolis Herald publishes a
list Of prominent citizens, ofice-hold-

the recent disgraceful riot in that

vented from speaking. 1t boldly
charges that the riot was inciked in or
der to cover the assassination of MIR.
johnson. One pistol shot evidently
aimed at him, struck within a. few
feet of his head The evidence of a
youth is given to the effect that he
was paid five dollars to hurl stone at
the President, and further proof is, ad-
duced that desperate characters were
brought from others places to engage
III the riot. Threats were openly
made for several days before the visit
of the President that he should not
leave Indianapolis alive. Such are
the legitimate fruits of radicalism.
The Cor'ToN CRoof.-A highly in
telligent gentleman, writing to the
says:
"some friend sent me yoar paper,
and see you have inserted in it the
report of the Mississippi Cotton Grow
ing Association, which leaves the i'm
preston that there will be. something
like 100000 bales of cotton raised
this year. Since the Association
made that report, there has been
great falling off of the cotton crop.
We had six weeks dry weather here
in the West;,%hich caused the cotton
to cast off fully one-half Of its crop.
In the Mississippi Valley and ada
cent section, the rot, the bolI and
Sherman worms, have effected she
crop seriously. We will not exceed
100000 bales. 7

NUMBER NINETY.

After the regular installation of the Spanish
authorities in Louisiana, census was taken
of the inhabitants and we find that the num-
Der of houses in the city of New Orleans was
set down at four hundred and sixty-eight, to q
population of upwards of three thousand two
hundred, which makes near seven persons or
inmates to family. Again we find that in the
year 1888, or some eighteen years later, after
the former enumeration under O'ReilIy in
ITO, the number of inhabitants of the city
had then increased to some five thousand three
hundred, or some two thousand more, which
at the formerratio of seven persons to a family,
would give us between seven or eight hum
bred houses or dwellings, Now, it is also re-
lated that in that same year, 1888, fire, which
broke out on Good Friday at three o'clock in
the afternoon, nearly destroyed the whole
town, or as it is said, some nine hundred
houses and other property to large amount
When we first saw New Orleans in 1876 which
was then only twenty-eight years later than
the year of the great fire above mentioned
our memory serves us in recollecting num-
Der of brick buildings, as well as wooden
frame houses, that certainly dated beyond
twenty-eight years existence nay, some of
them might have been fifty Or sixty years old,
and all these of that time, it is an easy mat
ter for us to point out at the present
day, where these old relics of former
times have been preserved, renovated OF
transformed under more modern appearance
Hence we may infer that the ehronicler or
historian included in the enumeration of the
800 houses destroyed by the fire in 1888.
number of outhouses, kitchens or other build-
ings belonging to the principal establish
ments, for otherwise there could have been
none left standing, and we ourselves in 1915
could have found none of the old build
ings of the former French colonial
times, which, by ocular demonstration.
we know to have been the case. In another
city work we read that another eonfiagration
visited New Orleans in the year 1894, under
Baron Carondelet's administration, which laid
a great many houses in ashes. This was six
years subsequent to the former one in 1888,
under the government of Don Estevan Miro
