militia. subject to the command Of the Gov
ernOr."
The police act of New Orleans was en-
acted in 1869. at time when the militia
laws of the United States, as applicable to
that State, were in suspense. Congress, in
July, 1867, suspended those laws with refer.
ence to Louisiana aud renewed them in
1869; so that, whatever reason there might
have been for the passage Of such law at
denunciatiOn Of it does not apply nor per-
tain to the present government.
But it was not considered judicious to
arm the militia there in that State at
that time. 1t was neither lawful nor
judicious. Subseq uently it became law
full; but it never became judicious, be-
cause the White Leaguers, who were
sworn in by the Governor of the State to
protect its laws. to maintain its constitu-
ton inviolate, ANONYMOUSLY laid down
their arms at the first demand on them to
do their duty. That is the kind of militia
we had in New Orleans and in Louisiana.
"By the creation in some places OF mono
poles in markets"
True, the Legislature of Louisiana, under
the Kellogg administration, has passed an
act with reference to markets. Ttat act
was proposed to them and solicited from
them by the Dem ocratio administration IN
the City Hall of New Orleans. What was
that legislation! Simply as the markets
belonged to the city of New Orleans, and
as Democrats were their lessees, it was due
to those Democrats to protect them in the
value of their property by preventing the
Of private markets with.

of markets that is charged
hero upon the Republicans; which was
done to keep the Democratic Golfers OF the
city of New Orleans replete with revenue,
and which il now taken exception to.

Now, sir. what was the effect upon the
election OF 1868 of such violence and what
were the violences that preceded the last
election and what was the effect of them!
The day of election in 1868 was as peace
able and quiet an election day as ever oc-
CURED in this country. Yet in the parish of
Orleans, where there were from IL, 900 to
10000 registered Republican voters the total
vote cast for General Grant was only 30: in
the parish of Bienville. out of rs registered
Republican voters. one vote was cast for
Grant; in the parish of Bossier, out of 1895
registered Republican voters, one vote was
cast for Grant; in Caddo, out of 3l34 regis
tered Republican voters, one vote was cast
Tor Grant; in Calcasieu, out of 245 Repub
iican voters, nine votes were cast for Grant;
in Claiborne, out of 1898 Republican voters,
two votes were cast for Grant; in Morehouse,
out OF 1880 registered Repu blican voters,

committee. Speaking about the resentment
that should be entertained against white
Republicans, it says:
"But in no case should you permit this
resentment to go further than to withdraw
from them all cOuntenance, association and
patronage. and thwart every effort they
may make to maintain business and So
cial foothO]d among u.s."
Republicans are to be thwarted in every
way, not to be allowed to follow the ordirk
airy pursuits of life. They are to be treated
as pariahs and outcasts and not to be ad.
mitted within the sacred social circle. That
was the gospel of peace that was promul.
gated in 1868, and it has been followed out
bitterly and mercilessly up to the present
hour. In the documents that were sent to
us in the message Of the President of the
United States, the same prescription was
lterated and reiterated over and over again,
according to the excerpts that be sent us
from the press throughout the State In the
city OF New Orleans, a merchant of high
and honorable character and unblemished
repute who had the independence and the
csndor to come before this committee and
to state IN words. scarcely using the strong
terms have today, that he believed the
action OF the Republicans Of Louisiana
since they last came into power has con-
tributed to the interest of the people,
became an outcast on the following day
among his friends and acquaintance of
fifty years. He was leading banker pre-
siding over an institution of million dol.
lars of Northern capital; he had been for
several years president of the Chamber of
Commerce, and because he had the in
dependence and candor to go before that
committee and to state that he believed
that the evils of the hour were not alto.
gether attributable to the Republicans, he
was made an Outcast and an exile, and this
cruel treatment brought him to deaths door.

WHEN YOU'RE DOWN.

What legions of friends" always bless us
When golden success lights our wayi
How they smile as they softly address us
So cordial, good humored and gay!
But ahi when the sun of prosperity
Hath set, then how quickly they frown,
And cry out in tones of severity:
"Kick the man! Don't you soc is down9''
What though, when you know not q sorrow,
Though your heart is as open as day,
And your 'friends''when they wanted to borrow
You obliged, and ne'er asked them to ''payf'
What though not soul you e'er slighted?
As you wander about through the town,
Your friends become very near-sighted,
And don't seem to see when you're down,
When you're "up' yoare loudly exalted,
And tralers all sing your praise;
When you're"dOwn" you have greatly defaulted
And they really don't fancy your waysr'
Your style was "tip-top'' when you'd money,
$50 sings every sucker and clown.)
But now-'tis exceedingly funny a.-; r..
Things are altered, because you are 'down.'

Is free from this worlds selfish rust.

Is to raise fallen man from the dust .l

A TOUCHING INCIDENT.

: The struggle to keep up Appearances
is one of the saddest things In the
world any way, and it has added
mournfulness when child is the act
or in the generally hopeless endeavor.
Just, before the close of the last session
of the, public schools in st. Louis An
incident took place which, as an illus
tration, is more than touching. At
one of the schools a number Of the pu-
pills were in the habit of bringing their
luncheon with them, which at noon
they ate together. Among those who
did not 60 home for dinner, the teach
er in particular room noticed > little
girl who always sat looking wistfully
at her playmates when they went out
with their luncheon, but she never
brought any herself The child w0
always neatly but plainly clad, and
one of the closest students In school
hours. This odd action Of the child's
lasted some time when one day tho
teacher noticed that. the little thing
had apparently brought her dinner
with her. The noon hour came, and
the children took their lunch as usual
and went out to eat it. the little girl
referred to alone remaining in tho
room with her dinner wrapped up in
paper on the desk. The teacher ad-
vanced to the child and asked her why
she didn't go out to eat with the rest,
at the same time putting her hand to-
wards the package on the desk. Quick
as thought the girl put her hands over
it, and exclaimed, sobbing: "Don't
touch it, teacher; and don't tell, please
It's only blocks!'' And that was tho
fact. Having no dinner to bring, and
being too proud to reveal the poverty
of her family, the child had carefully
wrapped up number Of small blocks
in paper, and brought the package to
present the appearance OF q lunch. 1t
was nothing; mere ridiculous incl
dent in school life; but it was suffi-
cient to make one who heard the
story feel badly.

opinion that these are cenvicts or men
who fer some reason have been ban
ished from the warmer and more hab-
table lunar hemisphere as to sort Of
Siberia, where they must work out
their own purposes and live only
through their own incalculable exer-
tions.
If this supposition be correct, it
shows that on that portion of the lu-
mar surface which is hidden forever
from us high degree of civilization
must have been reached. 1t seems
impossible that the huge mirror could
have been constructed by those beings
who use it, under the circumstances
in which they are now placed, for to

There are other considerations
which render this great discovery
highly probable. The moon, during
the long ages since it was first cut off
from the earth, has passed through all
the phases of the earth; Meteorie
stones which haye fallen on the earth
| show that the celestial bodies are
composed of the same substances az

through changes analogous with those
which have taken place in the earth
it must have had its azoic, pal@ozsit
and mesozoic ages and, as time pass
ed on and it grew into such condi
ton as that which on earth rendered
possible the existence Of man, being
like him must have appeared on thu
moon. Where we now are the lunar
men were ages ago. and if they have
had that peculiarly human ability t.
adapt themselves to their surround
ings, SO that, through climatic changes
which kill off less intelligent beings
we are enabled to live on, they woult
certainly, in modified form, be able t.
cope with such adverse circumstance
which, without human Intelligence
would crash off other animals excep
those which, like the birds seen by NJ

GEORGE GRANTS FARM OF $4,000
ACRES. Ea

ACRES. as
Among the prominent visitors at
the fair is Mr.. George Grant, of Vie:
toria Colony, the owner of the largest
farm in the world, with the exception
perhaps, of that of the Duke of Suth-
erland, whose broad acres consist
largely of hill and heather. Mr..
Grants domain covers SIG, 600 acres in
the heart of Kansas, about go miles
west of Kansas City to Fort Hays,
the center of the tract His effort is
to establish model farm, for which
great credit is due him, as well, as far
his successful efforts in introd ucings
imported stock. and showing the re-
suits in crossing imported with native
stock, and also the best methods 0t
sheltering and feeding cattle in winter.
Mr.. Grant is going to Europe in about
five weeks to arrange for the bringing
out of more people, and large por-.
ton of high-bred stock, which he will
exhibit at the Centennial, with the in
tention ultimately of shipping it to
Victoria. Mr.. Grant states that one
herd of eighty-one short-horns Of the
Booth strain cold five weeks age at
the sale of the late Mr.. Torrs' proper
ty in England, at an average price
from young to old of $4,000. They
were of the same family that he has
at Victoria, and many Of the animals
were bought for America.
Mr.. GrsnSs colony has swelleG this
season by immigrants, and another
English company has just bought 49,
600 acres adjoining the Victoria colo
ny. One Of the New York Gunthers
has started with 5000 acres, and Mr..
Dickinson, of st. Louis, has bought
two square miles, and is out there
now making arrangements for putting
up a house. Mr.. Grant says he j,
more than satisfied with the produce
of his crops this season. ..,:...,
The rains have been abundant, but
last year the grasshoppers swept eve.
rything. One field of eighty acres ol
his farm has produced 776 tons Of fod.
der and !, LA bushels Of seed, giving
profit of more than 5000 per cent, on
the cost Of putting in the seed. He
put in three hundred acres of alfalfa
a kind of fodder much used in Cali
fornia. The land will grow three
crops of this grass in year, at the rate
Of six tons to the acre, but it affects {
deep, dry soil. Mr.. Grant has increas
ed his flock of sheep to 10000, anG
1000 cows. In less than five years h,
expects to increase his sheep to 100000
His wool alone this season brough

tined to be a profitable business il
