bELLEf UE, La, July u, 1OtU.
Pursuant to a call published in
the Bossier Banner, there was q
meeting of the Conservatives this
day at the Court house, and of
which B. F. Fort was chosen Pres.
ident and j. E. M'Carty Secretary.
The President stated the object
of the meeting to be to select dele
gates to a Senatorial District Con-
vention to be held at Minden,
which convention was designed to
recommend to the Conservatives
of the district irrespective of par
ty, candidate for the Senate.
The meeting resolved that four
delegates for the parish at large
and one from each ward should
be selected and accordingly the
following were chosen:
For Parish at large. DR.. w. M.
Swami, j. r. Griffin, j. E. M'Carty
and B. T. Fort !; for ward 1, Isaac
billiard, ward 2, R. 7. Stinson,
ward 3, Capt. J. II. Nattin, ward

1t was further resolved, that
each delegate be authorized to

vote of the parish, but each dele

pointment and of the expected

DIED.-At his residence near
Bellevue, on the evening of
the third ofthis month, Charles
P. Knighton, aged about So.
Deceased seemed to be en-
joying good health up to the
moment of his, death, which
occurred simultaneously while
he was calmly sitting in his
chair. y heart disease is given
as the cause. He was one of
the pioneers of Bossier parish,
coming here many years ago as
an agent of James B. Pickett,
in searching ont and entering
those valuable river lands
near BentOn. Deceased was
in easy circumstances, and
leaves a widow to mourn his
loss.

We have been much pleased

We have been much pleased
in the reading of the speech de-
livered by Senator Harris, on
the End of June, on the ques-
ton of Mississippi levees. He
is in favor OF the proposition
to subsidise a company to be
chartered by Congress, for the
projections of the swamp lands.
This is the plan most generally
favored, and we must declare
ourselves also its advocate.
By allowing a company to
levy such a tax on every acre
of land affected by its works
under the special agreement
that it is to pay all damages
resulting from overflows, and
by advancing to that company
some funds the work could be
finished in a few years. The
company would become rich,
but the country would have in
conceivable wealth added to it.
The Senator estimates in
round numbers the acres of
land to be benefited at twenty
millions. A tax of one dollar
per acre per annum could be
easily afforded, giving cheap
protection to the land and a
splendid income to the compa-
ny.
Red River bottom, above Co
tile, is entirely distinct from
that of the Mississippi, and
comprises a million acres of the
best cotton land in the world.
Why could not Congress make
an experiment here before at
tempting so big a thing as the
Mississippi?
We ought to raise a company
and memorabilia Congress at
it's next session for a charter.

Shreveport is still excited
with apprehensions of the col
ored militia.
We did hope that all fears
would have been dissipated
by this time but as such is not
the case, doubtless; the fears
are we'll founded. What should
we do should the militia come
lis a question we acknowledge
our inability to answer.
For it is our candid opinion
that the whole intention in
sending the militia among us
is to cause a collision between
the whites and blacks in order
to make political capital.
Nine out of every ten of our
white citizens are so perfectly
law abiding that they would
suffer the Radicals to take and
control every department of
the Government by the unfair
est of means rather than 1eop-
ardize our prosperity by making
any resistance. Let the Gov
eminent, under the election
bill, declare all our elections
here void; let it appoint what
ever officers over us it pleases,
and we will submit and pay
our taxes. Again, let the Gov
eminent send colored militia
here and we will submit to them,
but we cannot guarantee that
they may not be insulted by
some of our citizens, and that
some collisions may not take
place. 1T is here like it is every
where else, occasional fights
take place between our citi-
zens, and at election times the
fights are more frequent than
at other times.
We greatly fear the effect
that this militia will have on
our negroes. They will be very
likely to quit work, have meet
ings and drills, and get drunk
and become a terror to our
women. We want to make
cotton to pay our taxes with.
just let us alone and we will
support the administration
handsomely, and let it carry on
the Government just as it
pleases for two years longer.

Shall it be the Monopoly Of
Savages.

Sooner than the juice of the
crushed strawberries served at
the White House to Spotted Tail
had dried on the war-painted jaws
of that savage, and while yet it
mingled with the black and YER
million which menacingly bar the
cheeks of Red Cloud, both of
these men, who have been known
to us, mainly as murderers and
horse thieves, demand of the gov
erRment fixed ammunition and
breech-loading rifles, and impe-
riously require that the construc-
ton of transcontinental lines of
railroad shall be stopped.
What is the question, what is
the bloody issue, which Gen.
Grant wraps with tobacco smoke,
and propitiates with gifts of meer-
schaum pipes, candy kisses. and
sugared berries smothered in
cream? Senator Stewart of Ne
vada, in debate in his place, pre-
sented it the other day with the
vigorous terseness characteristic
of the public utterances of this
brave and sensible statesman
''The country between the Mis-
souri, and the Columbia rivers,n
said the Senator, sis not only not
open to settlement, but is not ac-
cessible to settlers. 1t is monopo-
lized by Indians, by mountains,
by deserts. / ask Senators ifthey
prefer the monopoly of inaccessi-
BILE regions, the monopoly of desc
lation, and the monopoly Of bar
barism, to the monopoly of rail-
roads ~
That is all there is of this ques
ton. Spotted Tail and Red Cloud,
representing the Sioux and Chey-
ennes, say that inaccecsibility,
desolation, and barbarism shall
monopolize the existing buffalo
range. The genius Of the country
demands that the Northern Pa
cific Railroad be constructed
through the valley Of the Yellow
stone. Which shall prevaiI-the
civilized sentiment of the nation,
or the barbarous pleasure of saw
ages too lazy to till the soil, too
proud to change their hunter lives
too insolent to acknowledge the
control of the Government?
In behalf of the public interests
of the country, we demand that
this most important question be
discussed and settled with other
diplomacy and other influences
than strawberries and cream, gar
landed with dollhouse and open
air flowers. The Sioux are in
blood earnest. They mean war if
we do nat yield to their intolera
BILE and preposterous demands
Is there not spirit enough in this
Administration to meet the tenn
per of these warriors in a proper
mannerg We pray Gen. Grant to
spare us the humiliation of any
further effusion of cream and
candy, upon the peril of a Sioux
outbreak against the Govern
ment's military posts on the
Northern Palms, N. 7. Sun.
