A REAL PIoNEER.-During our recent
visit to Cinnabar we had the pleasure of
meeting Col Stephen II. Meek, an an
cient patriarch and pioneer now SO years
of age, and who first visited California
in 1888, and afterwards in 1896, lS45 and
1916. The Colonel was Rocky Noun
tain hunter and trapper and at one time
in the employ of the Hudson Bay Com
pany he was the companion of Kit Car
son, Col. Walker and others of their day
and class. He is now engaged in writing
a history of his life, travels and adventur-
es, which will be fraught with thrilling
interest,

SET AsIDE.-In the County Court
Monday last, on motion of District At
|torney Irwin the indictment heretofore
found against Neal and Pinnel was set
'a'dO, on the ground that a sufficient
Fumber of names was not drawn from
|the jurybox nor the proper number of
lurors empanneed to form q Grand Jury.
'Ihe necessity for this disposition Of the
case arose from the fact that the law gov
|erning the formation of juries was chang
|ed by the Legislature last Winter, the
Pew law going into effect on the first day
|pt May. Under the present jury law not
Jess than twenty-five nor more than
lhrty names must be drawn from the
lurybox, and of these who appear and
pre- not excused nineteen, selected by lot,
Constitute the Grand Jury. Changes are
AlSo made in regard to the summoning

BALL AT Coxs' BAR.-As will be seen
by the notice in another column, the
people of Coxs' Bar will celebrate the
Centennial by ball, the net proceeds
of which will go to the school fund of
the District. The Cors' Bar people have
a knack of making everybody enjoy
themselves at an occasion of this kind
and as the object of the festivities is
laudable in a double sense, we hope to
hear that they have succeeded we'll in
their aim. The ball will be given at the
house of Mr.. j. A. Tinsley, which is a
sufficient voucher that the preparations
will be all that could be asked.

The FOURTH IN WEAvERvILLE.-
Since our last report the various Commit
tees having the Centennial Celebration
in charge have not been idle but on the
contrary have been very busy and done
much in the way Of making necessary
arrangements for grand demonstration.
The celebration will certainly prove a
success, because our people and more
particularly the Committees have taken
hold of the affair with determination to
make it such. Below we append reports
made by sub Comm ittecs to the Gener-
81 Committee, each of which reports
speaks for itself and forms part of the
programme:
We your Committee on Salute, have
decided on the following programme:
lst-At Sunset of the 3rd day of Jnly,
salute Of 5 guns.
2nd-At Sunrise ofthe 4th, salute of
IS guns.
Srd-At Noon of the 4th, salute of l3
guns.
4th-At Sunset of the 4th, a salute of
IS guns.
Your Committee would further report
that the expense Of repairing gun Car
rage, procuring ammunition, etc., will
not exceed 500.
Your Committee should suggest that il
there would be any surplus funds, that
they could be expanding in repairing the
Gun and Carriage and provide some
suitable place wherein to house it.

The delegates to the late Con-
vention performed the work as
signed them by the Democracy
of the State, in a manner that
reflects credit on the people rep
resented and on their represen-
tatives. There never has been
in the history of our State a
more unexceptionable ticket pre-
sented to the voter, and If it is
not elected, it will prove conclu-
sively that ignorance and vice
predominant over intelligence
and virtue in our State, which
we are 10th to believe. General
Nichols, who heads the ticket,
has wrung encomiums from the
most bitter of our political foes,
aud his associates are all men OF
whom we may well feel proud.
The delegates who gave us the
ticket, displayed rare wisdom,
even in the organization OF the
Convention, by calling our
townsman, Col. j. A. Snider, to
preside over their deliberations.
The Colonel is well-known and
appreciated in North Louisiana,
for his ability and zeal in the
cause Of the people, and Bossier
parish cannot but feel and ap-
preciate the compliment paid
her in the recognition Of quail.
ties in one of her citizens, thai
eminently fitted him for the dis
charge of the delicate duties Of
temporary and permanent Chair
man of the Convention, and We
feel satisfied that he acquitted
himself with honor to himeel
ond the C0nvhuttnn over whose
deliberations he was called Il
preside.

Hon. ]. B. Elan, the Demo-
cratic nominee for Congress from
this District, was not our first
choice before the nomination, but
is decidedly SO now, and we have
this to say of him, that he is an
able and true man, and if elect
ed-of which there is but little
doubt-will reflect credit on his
constituents. Mr.. Elan is an
indefatigable worker; will make
a splendid committeeman, and
will have something to say on
every important question, and
will know how to say it, and
will do it if it kills him! He is a
popular man in the District
eminently conservative as a pol
itician, and perhaps q little too
much so for the times, and the
character of the enemy we have
to fight.
We predict that in the can
vass about to open, he will be
found in the front ranks, and
where the battle wakes hottest.

HANDS Orr THE SoUTH.-In
this canvass one demand should be
made by all who love their country,
irrespective of party sentiment
Let Grant take his heavy hand off
the South. OF our soldiers we may
say to him as Richard III. said to
Stanley:-"What do they in the
south when they should serve their
country in the westi" Why should
Mississippi be strongly garrisoned
while troops are wanted to fight
Sitting Bull in Dakota and all that
religion which is now threatened
with . long, cruel and possibly q
disastrous war; Senator Bayard in
q recent debate showed how Missis-
sippi has suffered under ono of the
worst State governments ever
known, and how much moderation
and wisdom are wanted to enforce
the much needed reforms. The
views Of Mr.. Bayard are not extreme
in this case. Mississippi and the
whole South, indeed, are orderly
enough, and . Presidential cam.
paign is not the time when large
bodies of troops should be stationed
| in any State when they are needed
to fight the common enemy. There
| is q dividing line between caution
and rashness, and We hope the ad
ministrati0n may find it.-iN. Y

Cough Cordial, sold in the northwest
within the past year, on a guarante to

to cure, there were less than fifty bot
ties returned, being less than one fail

volumes in favor of this wonderful
remedy for Colds, Coughs, Sore Throat
Bronchitis, Asthma, &c. Physicians
everywhere acknowledge their surprise
at the wonderful results from the use
of this medicine. We authorize Rob

after using one-half the bottle. It is
very pleasant to the taste, making it a
very desirable remedy for children.
