Mat Wells himself, In his testi-
mony before the Investigating com

attention of tho Republicans Is called to

The country parish papers Of last
week, that come to us just now. all speak
of the promising signs that business
show and venture to predict that our
former prosperity Is about to return to
as, and to return soon. 1t seems that
the very promise Of the establishment
OF the Nichols government has had the
effect of sweeping away to great ex-
tent the fear and antieipations, and
hard times that have go long kept Lou
isiana behind, SO that, even under the
status quo rule, the revival Of business
and prosperity has begun.
This however, was before the Tribu-
nails partizan action on Florida had
become known In the country; 1t Is to
be seen what effect that will produce,
whether the confidence in our future
prosperity felt but short week ago, Is
at ell impaired by it.. The present cam
paign has more than ever shown the
absolute necessity Of Democratic rule
In Louisiana; not only Is this true Of
our finances, business, etc, not only
do the prosperity Of all of these inter
ests hang upon Gov. Nichols full re-
cognition, but the papers, Democratic
and Republican alike, all hesitate Civ
