The Elections.

Elections were held this week in
eleven States, some of them for all
of the State and most of the county
officers, while in others the election
was for only portion of these officers;
and VIC acknowledge that we are
somewhat surprised at the result in
most of them. The combination
greenback and workingmcD's parties
po,led a pretty heavy vote in most Of
tho Nor, bern States. carrying one
county in New York by large plu-
ralitv of votes. In this Stale the
Democratic candidate for Secretary
of State was elected by majority OF
perhaps $4,000, bur it is supposed both
houses Of the Legislature will be
Republican.
The Republicans carried Massachu'
setts by pretty large majority; also
Connecticut, Wisconsin, Minnesota
and Kansas.
The Democrats carried Pennsylva.
mia, Virginia, Mary land. New Jersey
and Mississippi. One thing that
surprises us is that the Democrats
gained so much in Pennsylvania, and
another is that so few votes were cas-,
in Mississippi; but the fact is there
was no opposition to the Democratic
nominees on the State ticket, end the
opposition there was to the county
and district tickets was made by
independents, most of them claiming
to be Democrats. and the people
seemed to think it made but litt.'
difference whether they voted or not

The Monroe Observer is puzzled
to know how the BEACON arrived at
such exact numbers in finding the
celtral point If SO irregular figure
as that of Rich!and parish" There
is scarcely anything more simple or
easy. We measured a sectionized
map from every point on the different
lines of the parish, and found the
exact centre Of the parish TO be on
the sixteenth section of this township,
and at a point in that section about
one and half miles from Rayville.
ANY one who will take the trouble to
do so can easily see that what we say
is true. The Observer is also mis-
informed as to the centre Of the popu
lation. We would have given this
information last week, but an ex

We see. from recent number OF
the Shreveport Times, that the Mis-
sissippi & Red River and North Lou
isiana Railroad Companies were
negotiating a consolidation OF the two
companies, which there was very
lllle doubt would be accomplished;
and as little rs our readers may think
about il. this North Louisiana COM
pany is going to build q road from
Shreveport TO Monroe, and that before
n great while. 1t is composed of the
right kind of material to do it; have
already broke dirt and are coming
right ahead with the work. One
section, ut least, is being graded very
rapidly.
We do not know whether this
company has charter or not, nor do
we care, just 50 they build the road
but if they have not got it we presume
they can get it during the next session
of the Legislature. The people OF
Shreveport aud those who inll"bit the
country lying between that city and
Monroe are in dead earnest abou, this
mater, and they are going to build
the road whether they get any help
from this end Of the road or not, and
we bid them god-speed with the good
work, assuring them that they have
our best wishes for the success of the
enterprise, which, We regret to say, is
all the capital we now have to invest
in this or any other enterprise. But
we do think that the people of Nicks
burg, Monroe and the intermediate
country, who are able to do so, should
take stock in this read and assist Ou
neighbors west of the Ouacbita il
