uAxg MONK.
A s,npls ss.ry OF [. ninp,s Liss.

OF all the stage-dhyers who have
drawn the strings over kyuse and mus
tang horses that no n but q Western
man would think OF Harvesting. Hank
Monk Is probably the best known. Not
that he is the best driver on the coast,
for Hank is too modest to assert any
such u thing. but circumstances and his
fund Of quiet humOr have made him
famous, and no was we'll known oven
before the big drive in which Horace
Greeley was SO reluctant n participant.
Hank seldom speaks Of this ride. and
really does not consider 1t anything
wonderful. d.
Hank Monk was born in the town OF
Washington, 81. Lawrence county. New
| York, March "a. 1896. He always bad
A fancy for horses, and once drove eight
horses abreast in the city OF boston.
upon tho occasion Of a great celebration.
| This was In his younger days. and at
that time he regarded 1t a great achieve
ment.
Monk came 10 the Pacific Coast in
1862, and first drove stage In Califor-
MIA between Sacramento and Auburn,
a distance OF forty miles. for the Caliior-
mia Stage Company. Of which Burch 4
Hayward were then the managers. he
afterward drove on the Placerville road
into Sacramento. and in 1851 came to
Nevada. His first route here was be-
tween Genoa-at that time the metropo-
lis Of tho State-and Placerville in
California. J. v. Crandall wns the
proprietor Of this road. and sold out TO

tho fastest time made by him was one
hour and eight minutes from the hotel
door In Virginia to the 0rmsby House
in Carson. He has at different times
driven to Steamboat Springs and Reno.
and since those lines have discontinued
has been ON the Lake Tahoe line for
Doc. Benton.
Hank never seems TO DO In much OF a
hurry. and some have gone 30 far as to
say that he was not remarkable for his

Other Meetings,

AS announced last week, meeting
and torchlight procession will take
place in the fifth ward, at what is
known as Crevasse settlement, this
evening. Our local campaigners will
be out in force, and q good time is
expected.
Congressman Darrall writes that he
can he hers next Saturday, and a
meeting for that day will be an
nounced during the coming week. 1t
will probably be held in the first
ward, as DR.. Darrall, has not yet ad-
dressed the people in that portion of
the parish. Other meetings will also
be appointed and announced by the
campaign committees. Senator Lam
dry will probably be in the parish
and lend his aid to the canvass. Judge
Marks is advertised to speak at Hahn
vile to- day, but is expected home to-
night to attend the eighth ward meet
ing tomorrow.
The regular weekly meetings of the
fourth ward central club, which have
been for a fortnight interfered with
by other appointments of the CAM
paign, will be resumed, commencing
this evening.

Republican ticket is the white men
who are candidates upon it, and other
similar insidious insincere suggestions
| intended to deceive and arouse the
cupiditity of the parties addressed.
Such stuff as this, however, will en-
trap no one. The most ignorant man
will understand its purpose, and es
pecially when he knows that these
same sudden converts, who pretend to
be moved by an irresistible impulse to
elevate the colored citizen to power
and prosperity, were two years ago
denouncing the Republicans for nomi-
mating what they called black ticket,
and have never heretofore been known
to expatiate upon the advantages of
having colored men in office.
We do not pretend to say that the
Democratic managers will go into the
independent movement and indorse
incapable c0lored candidates with any
expectation or desire of olecting them.
They know from past experience, if
not otherwise, that this can not be
done, and that for every Republican
gained for such ticket two Demo-
cratic voters will be alineated and
disgusted. In 1874 there was believed
to be a tacit if not specific agreement
between the Dunn Republicans and
the Democrats to swap votes, but
when the ballots were counted it was
found that Gen. Thomas, Judge
Cheevers and the other white candi
dates had polled the full strength of
the combination, but Milton Morris
and Bill Kenner were wofully be-
midland. And so it will be this
year if such ticket is put in the field
as that proposed by the ",independ.
ents."
Chief engineer Wilson of the In
dependent boat which will sail up
Salt river in November is in close
communion with the Democratic lead
ers in this town, and such questions
as g Wilson, what have you done for
us to-day9" are not entirely foreign
to the vocabulary of at least one of
the prominent Democratic managers.
The Donaldsonville chief. [volume] (Donaldsonville, La.) 1871-current, 1876-10-07

but he spoke any how and seemed to
bear his misery with good grace.
The high privilege of addressing an
audience of hite people tickled Nose
immensely-his grins were frequent
and industrious in dimension. The
speech of Mr.. Sims was good one.
Much of his logic was faulty, and many
of his premises wrongly based, but his
arguments were ingenious, his tone
temperate, and he expressed some
sentiments to which all honest men
can give accord and applause, what
ever may be their political status. Mr..
Carver did not do his oratorical abili-
ties justice. His speech was rambling
and disconnected, and he left many
points half made to begin upon others.
His anecdotes were appreciated, how
ever, and he deserves commentator
for several very liberal and logical ut
terances. Mr.. Jones of Assumption and
Col. Rogers of Kentucky were called
for, but asked to be excused from
speaking. A motion to change the
meeting night from Thursday TO
Saturday was adopted.
The Democratic club of the fifth
ward was called to meet at Mr.. Ben.
Aliens place last evening.
1t is currently reported that several
Qlored Democratic strikers yesterday
received an installment of the wages
of sin, in the shape of Uncle Sam's
greenbacks, at the Office of a promi-
nent local Democrat.

The Eighth Ward Rally.

There is every Indication of large
meeting in the eighth ward to-mor-
row afternoon. The speakers stand
will be erected under the trees near
Moore's bridge, point accessible alike
to residents of the seventh and eighth
wards. The presence of Congressman
Darrall was anticipated, bat on ac-
count of the nominating convention
in his own parish being held to-day,
he will be unable to come. Promi-
nent orators from the city are ex.
pected, however, and together with
the local speakers will afford ample
entertainment to the assembled peo-
pie.

THE LOCAL CAMPAIGN.
Republican Meetings in the First and
Fourth Wards,

Fourth Wards.
Saturday evening well attended
and in every respect successful Re-
publican meeting was held in the
yard of the Adlard Landry school
house, first ward. Hon. Louis Butler
was chosen president, with Messrs.
VIM. Diggs, Jack Smith, Manuel Ian
dry and Solomon Smith as vice presi-
dents, and Mr.. A. P. Dominique as
secretary. President Butler took oc-
casion, in opening the proceedings, to
deny emphatically the current report
that he had joined tile Democrats.
The speakers were Messrs. A. Har-
rison, Jno. A. Cheevers, B. f. Evans,
p. A. Jones, III. F. johnson, WIN.
Diggs and L. E. Bentley, aud their
efforts were received with marked
approval. A couple Of parties who
had been absorbing too much corn
juice at a Democratic gathering which
took place at little deadfall known
as Allemania store, showed DISPOSE
ton to obstruct the proceedings and
annoy the speakers, but the indignant
protest of the chairman, backed by
the evident approval of the audience,
had the effect of keeping the obstrep-
erous individuals comparatively quiet.
A number of Democrats were present
and gave respectful attention to the
speakers. After the meeting a torch
light parade took place, and although
about 900 torches had been provided
for the occasion, there were not
enough to supply the demand. After
long march, enlivened by hearty
cheering and inspiring music from
the st. Joseph Band, the crowd dis
persed, having heartily enjoyed both
the meeting and the par lde.
At Mount Bethel Church, lower end
of the fourth ward, Sunday evening,
one of the most successful rallies of
the campaign took place. The spa
cious building, which affords sitting
room for about five hundred people,
was mfortably filled with an atten-
tive aud appreciative audience. Mr..
Edward Cantey, president Of the
fourth ward sub-club, acted as chair
man. aud James Randall as secretary.
The first speaker was Senator Landry,
whose address was one of the best we
have ever heard him deliver, and pro-
duced profound impression upon
the audience. Messrs. a. Harrison,
w. w. Bnford, P. A. Jones, A. p.
Dominique, Fred. Fobb aud L. E.
Bentley spoke in the order named,
with excellent effect. After the meet
ing torches were lighted aud parade
indulged in which pleasantly con-
cluded the harmonious and gratifying
reunion of the Republicans of Que of
the most populous sections of the
parish.

Ward Nominations.

In the fifth ward last Saturday the
Republicans nominated Mr.. Peter
James as their candidate for Justice
of the Peace and Napoleon Carroll
for Constable. Both are reputable
and competent men.
There is some dispute about the
third ward nominations. At meet
ing held two weeks since Messrs.
Minus Nelson and james Bailer re-
ceived the highest number of votes
for Justice aud Constable, bat owing
to some informality and confusion in

ALLEGED MURDERER ARRESTED

ALLEGED MURDERER ARRESTED
Constable James 'Bailer of the second
ward on Thursday arrested colored
man named VIM. Smith, who is charged
with having stabbed and killed an
other colored man in the parish of
Iberville about three weeks since.
Henry Harrison made the affidavit
upon which the warrant was issued
for Smiths arrest. Accused is lodged
in jail, awaiting requisition of the
Iberville authorities, who have been
duly notified.

the balloting, it was agreed to have a
new election on last Saturday. AT
this meeting Mr.. Scott North received
the highest vote for Justice and Mr..
Raphael Lewis for constable. We
understand, however, that Messrs.
Geo. Turner and James Bail4r claim
to have been elected. The matter
will probably be referred to the par
ish committee for adjustment, unless
the parties interested come to an
agreement among themselves, OF
which there is said to be a prospect.
Delegates from the fourth ward to
the parish convention assembled at
the Court House Wednesday evening,
according to notice, but owing to the
absence of several of the delegation,
and the fact that Il full representation
could not be procured without the
participation of several delegates or
alternates who are candidates for
nomination, it was decided to post
pone the nominations until Monday.
Organization was effected by the Sc
lection of Messrs. n. NJ. Conway and
Francis Vicknair as chairman and
secretary, and the delegation ad-
journed to meet ut the same place
Monday evening, at 7 o'clock.
We believe the first ward nomina-
tions will be made to day.

Report has reached us that Geo.
Washington, eolored man who was
recently shot to death seven miles
from Clinton, East Feliciana parish,
was formerly a resident of Ascension,
having lived on the Linwood planta-
tion prior to the war. If it is the
same man, he has been managing a
plantation for Mrs. F. A. Brown, pro-
prletress of the Linwood place, and
this lady has gone TO East Feliciana
to ascertain if he was the person MUIR
dered. Two whites and a colored
man have been arrested for the crime,
and there seems favorable prospect
for their punishment if proven guilty.

ATTEMPT TO PoIsoN.-Nichols Lin
coin Joseph, colored boy about IA
years of age, was last week incarcera-
ted in our parish Jail upon a commit
ment signed by Parish Judge Tete of
Assumption, charged with attempting
to poison the wife of Hon. E. F. X.
Dugas, or the 23rd of September, by
putting strychnine in cup of milk
placed beside that lady's plate al the
supper table. 1t seems some money
had been stolen from Mrs. Dugas a
short time before, and the theft was
traced to Nichols, who occupied the
position of dining-Ioom servant. The
boys father chastised him severely
for the offeuse and compelled him to
remain, against his will, in the en-
ploy of Mrs. Dugas, hence his alleged
attempt to take the life of that lady
Accused has been remanded to prison
to await trial before the District Court
