upon them than some of them fall off and
others close up; and others continue, flower

Our Congressman.

Hon. Michael Ryan, of Rapides, has
been elected to Congress from this dis
trict by an overwhelming majority.
His opponent has carried only three
parishes and those by small MAORI
ties.
This result is exceedingly gratifying
to the friends of Judge Ryan, and to the
Democracy of the State with whom he
has been so long identified. Thorough
~ acquainted with the interests of Lou
isiana he cannot fail to represent them
ably on the floor of Congress where the
State has been so long without repre-
sentative. With fine natural talents,
cultivated by an excellent education
at one of the best literary institutions
in Europe, with a Judgment matured
by long experience, and readiness in
debate, we shall expect to see repre-
sentative take high rank among the
ablest debaters in the next Congress.

be freed of these pests and pauper-

and tried, and who have interests here,
shall rule US and fill offices OF trust and
profit. We care not for their bowls of
re- 9 and persecution, that is played and
soon must they play out themselves.
They are entitled to no sympathy from
us, shall not be spared and, at all times
and under all circumstances, must steer
clear of the white people of Rapides.
I'm all other respects, we shall strive to
make our Journal welcome visitor to
the firesides of our friends and patrons
and our whole aim shall be to please
them and to cater to their intellectual
wants. We ask our friends to back us
and stand by us, in this our hour of
need, and, our word for it, they shall

From our Extra of Thursday ]
We hasten to lay before our readers,
in extra form, the official vote of the
Parish of Rapides at the election for
President on Tuesday last. To say
that the Democracy of our Parish have
acted we'll, nobly and did their full
share in the redemption of our poor
accursed State, from the infamies of
Radicalism, is but feint praise. Be it
remembered that the majority against
us in April was 1910, and that during
the whole of the late canvass, our enc
mics moved hell and earth to retain
their foothold in Rapides, and in spite
of all the odds in their favor, we have
now reduced that majority to 273! No
party ever had such odds to encounter,
such enemy to face. But undismayed,
unsubdued, armed in a sacred and just
cause, the faithful and true white men
of Rapides, aided and assisted by a
true band of colored men, have proved
triumphantly victorious. We have a
right to crow locally and make fuss
over our home doings, and according
ly place our joyous notes on record.
The Plaisance Box has been rejected
and not counted. The Commissioners
were never sworn in and the election
was held, or pretended to be held, two
miles from the Precint on one of
| Z" Sweet Willie's" Plantations, and
was and is a simple cheat and fraud.
In New Orleans, up to 1890 Tues
day, all was quiet and the Democrats
doing all the voting; the Radicals
know the State is gone and have 6z-
zled. In Shreveport up to 10 o'cloc!.

more than redeemed our pledge made
for her and her honor. Only eight fell

latter was thrown out on account of
palpable frauds committed at that

for the benefitof Trinity Church, which
needs many repairs. We trust that
