ScAMPIsH TRAMPs. "A brace of
tramps lately stopped at Fridays
Station-Jim Smalfs place in Lake
Valley, Mrs. Small gave them per-
mission to make their beds in the
bar-ioom. The Genoa News tells
what ensued as follows: During
the night young man sleeping up
stairs heard a noise below. Jump.
ing into his trousers. he proceeded
to investigate. Creeping down on
tiptoe and peering into the bar
room. he saw one of them making a
bundle Of the blankets they had
slept in, and the other was rum
maging about the parlor, probably
picking up loose things. Grasping
anil cooking a convenient shotgun.
the young man stole for the parlor
door, and through nervousness,
pulled the trigger, when bang went
the fowlingpiece, lodging the con-
tents in the ceiling. At this unex-
pected salute the tramps sprang
through the door, one leaving his
hat and boots, and started down the
road ct a quarter-horse gait Mean
while the women folks were fright
enea half to death by the terrible
rumpus so suddenly kicked up. 1t
is said that Wednesday man, short
of hat and boots. landed a-foot,
greatly demorlized. at Woodford's.
He is probably one of the heroes of
the littleAffair at Ex-senator Small's.

NEW MEXICO will again make ap-
plication for admission into the Union
at the next session of Congress. Ari-
zona IS agitating the same question
and if the emigration to that Terri
tory keeps on as heavy as it has been
lately the chances are that she will
have enough inhabitants to demand
admission. The great argument
against New Mexico, and which pre-
vented her admission at the same
time with Colorado, was her people
were known to lack the intelligence
necessary for self government. This
claim cannot be truthfnlly made
against Arizona and that Territory
will soon be applying for permission
to make the thirty-ninth star On the
American flag,

Discussion Of the Various Levee Acts
where IL the Money to Come From?
The State Board Of Engineers, Gov. Nichols
presiding, was held yesterday at the State
House. Yesterday, when after the minutes
were read and approved, Mr.. Hardee offered a
resolution setting forth that the board declare
itself ready for business, and that it keep an
accurate record Of oil proceedings. Adopted.
Mr. Harrod then called attention to the pro-
visions of the various acts relating to the
construction Of levees, taxation and appro-
priations for salaries, etc, and stated the inn
mediate necessities of the board, such as
chairman, rodman, etc, which had
NOT BEEN PROVIDED FOR
in the various measures passed by the Legis-
lature.
The various acts were then examined at
length by the Governor and members of the
board. and the Auditor was called in to ascer-
tain his construction of the laws, but no con-
cluaion was arrived at.
resolution was adopted authorizing the
Secretary to have printed circulars calling
the attention of presidents of various parish
police juries to provisions Of the levee act,
requiring certain amount of levee work
from the citizens Of the parishes, etc, where
upon the board adjourned until to-day.

PRESIDENT wHEELoCK's VIEWS.
The Pacific Railroad will be Pushed
Through to Completion.


Now that the railroad tax question has been
settled by the election much interest as to what
the action of the company will now be is felt
by great many who voted against the rail-
road tax on principle, but who favor build
ing the road, and to give to the public all the
information proeurable on the subject a
DEMOCRAT reporter visited President Whee-
lock Monday morning.
Mr. Wheelock stated that notwithstanding
the result Of the election, the road would be
pushed through with all the speed possible,
as the funds came In. He felt satisfied that
many who had voted against the measure
would respond to a call, and 1t is proposed to
give them an opportunity. The Board Of
Directors will meet this evening and the SUBJ
ject will be laid before them.
Mr. Wheelock regretted the result Of the
election, as he feared it might prejudice Con-
gress against the scheme. Yet he spoke
cheerfully Of the prospect ahead, and his de-
termination to carry out the line II the public
would do their duty.

uHOEs FROM THE GRANITE TOMB.
THE CHAMPION BOND CANCELLEn ON
THE RAMPAGE.

The champion official bond canceller's ar
rival docs not. IL seems, digest very well with
acme OF tho Custom House officials from the
rumor thot he intends TO
ysuLnpozE COLLECTOR KING
into the appointment Of few dozen OF ms
friendyy, and Just there tho aforesaid cham
mon has met stumbling block In the way OF
The Returning Board. which declares In a
Suiet way that Kellogg's influence here has
symsed so far as Custom-House patronage
goes.
some say that unless the Collector accedee.ss
10 tho demands Of his royal .nibs, he WILL
make nm effort TO defeat the Collectors c9nlir..
there another hitch is made In that the Re
turning Board might defeat Kellogg's admis-
sion, which they could do by Wells opening
his mouth.
IL ii said that ii, his rambes about the city,
the grim vsaged ex-de facto mas proihiseu
over hundred persons that
THEY SHOULD DE APPOINTED,
md. further, that he has even made selec-
flor, for the position OF first special deputy,
and has recommended his favorite for that
position.
teiaer and Ii may be that IL was throsgh his
iniiuenco that Joubert got 9. strong letter to
fha preaidcnt from Phil Sheridan, recon-
mending him for the position. AS to the
Pension OfIice It's hard to tell whom the cham
MON will support, but .rumor has II that he
has gone bacl on Dibble and Hill. and, con-
seauently, he must have
FnuIpED 10 TwITCHELL.
Tom Anderson, who is expected to arrive
in the city this morning from Opelousas will
doubtless have something to say about the
militia warrant grabber's monopoly OF all the
Custom House patronage, and as he has on
former occasions given Kellogg some pretty
plain talk he Ia liable to do 1t again.
There was tho usual gathering at the
granite building on Monday morning, the
faithful toffice-grabbers) appearing by the
dozen In the Collectors Office and by eompa-
MES In Wells sanetum, while Rard's bureau
was thin as TO numbers, and Pitkin's branch
bore traces OF but few.
Rumor has II that tomanderson wants to
be q little angelic Collector Of Internal Rev-
enue, vice Cockrem, and IL may be possible
that tommus has bulldozed the President into
d promise that he could have the place.
All OF the customs offices will be closed or
