Caddo Carriage Works.

Manufactures of all kinds
have long been needed at the
South. May we not hope this is
the first of a number that will ere
long spring up in our city, pro
noting its prosperity and in
creasing its wealth.
The proprietor of the Caddo
Carriage Works, Mr.. John Cald-
we'll, stands in the foremost rank
Of our business men. Possessed
of great business tact and cour-
age, of indomitable zeal in his
business undertakings, Of un-
fiinching energy-never idle,
never daunted by loss, nor fiat
tered by gain, he must and will
succeed in this, his new depart
ure. His knowledge and expe-
rience of vehicles and vehicular
construction, is equaled by none,
and approached by few men in
our section. His keen eye to
detect a defect in vehicles quail
ties him well for this undertake
ing and every one may rest as
sured that no pains will be spar
ed by him to remedy such de-
feet in work entrusted to his
charge.
We were much surprised in
visiting the shops the other day
to see the hustle and activity al
ready displayed. In the ware
rooms we found several hand
somely finished vihicles ready
for use. The smith shops, wood
shops and paint shops, gratified
us beyond measure-other me-
chanics have been sent for and
work waiting for them to arrive.
Visitors and strangers are cor
daily invited to visit the factory
during their stay in Shreveport.

y This brief sketch brings
us back to the question of the
disposition that is to be made Of
the surrendered savages. The
policy of the government for the
last five years, had its object
been determination, could not
have been better conceived or ex-
ecuted, and if, with all our boasts
of fair dealing, philanthropy
and Christian and peaceful
methods of dealing with the In
dams, this policy is to be per-
sisted in, the cheapest and the
kindest manner of disposing of
the rest of the Nez Perces would
be to take them out and shoot
them. Anything would be pref
cradle to the dishonest policy
which combines bayonets and
Bibles and mock philanthropy
and over-reaching robbery
which brought on this last war.

Nor will the Democrats oppose

We want three things, and
then-we'll be happy. A Rail
road. Immigration and a Consti
tutional Convention. The first
we are very likely to have, as
Shreveport-the great CONNER
cial centre of North Louisiana
has, at last, walked up from her
RIP Van Winkle" sleep, and is
putting on her seven-leagued
boots, and the rest of North Lou
isiana will keep step to her mu-
sic.
The second is only waiting for
the Railroad, when they can all
"take a ride;;" and such a peo-
ping of our waste places it will
then do all our hearts good to
see. But, in the meantime, we
must keep the outside world
stirred up on the subject of the
great advantages possessed by
our section, to reward the labors
of those who may make, or con-
clude to make, their homes
among US.
But neither the Railroad, or
immigration, will do us all the
good we need without a New
Constitution. Without it, the
Raildroad will soon become
Ludelingized, and the Immi-
grants who may come from a
free country will not feel at
home. The Constitution we now
have, was manufactured in the
days of reconstruction, for the
benefit of the blown adven-
turers who then came South to
pilfer and rob our people. But
the day of our regeneration has
at last come; and we want a new
Chart and Compass to steer by.
Moreover, we want a new deal
all around, and a chance to
make Louisiana's redemption
perfect and complete.
Let us have the Convention.

1t is clear, however, that the
Democrats while they rejoice
over the ''policy" do not rejoice
so far as to give their support to
the Presidents own party

Of course not, says the Nash
vile American. We have been
telling weak Democrats, who
feared to indorse anything not
done by a Democrat, and gush-
ing Democrats, who wanted to
60 over bag and baggage, and
exultant Republicans, that the
Democratic party had a road OF
its own to travel. Again, if there
were no other reason, the De-
mocracy could not be expected
to support the Presidents party,
when it won't support his wise
measures.

How Long will the Forests Last.

Under such tremendous yearly drain,
the question naturally comes up. how
long will our forests hold out at the
present rate of manufacture 1t is really
an important question, upon which fol-
lows the inquiry as to what we are to do
for building material when this mag
nificent wood-pine-is exhausted. One
authority after another has entered
formally upon its solution, with satis-
factory results in local instances, but
very vague ones as to the field at large.
At the rate we are cutting it to-day, from
thirty to fifty years seem to be agreed
upon as about the limit. Twenty years
ago there was apparently no limit, for
the consumption was not only less, but
the means for its manufacture were
primitive, and accomplished much
smaller results than now. 1t seems as
if it were impossible to further improve
the machinery OF saw-mills; but the
near future may, for all that, see saving
machinery in comparison to which that
of the present will be contemplate. So,
although twenty years ago there was no
foreseeing the end of the timber, now,
with the modern mills and myfiads of
them, we are beginning to calculate with
dire certainty, as to- the time when the
"Wooden Age" will be thing of the
past. Charles ID. Robinson in Scrib-
ner

In Kansas the shock was noticed at

In Kansas the shock was noticed at
Topeka and Atchison. At Topeka, in
the Santa Fe depot, the employees felt
the building rocking gently from north
10 south. Three gentlemen seated in
one of the rooms suddenly looked at
each other, and all exclaimed "What
is that 2" Several men felt seasick and
dizzy, and ran to the windows to see If
there was train passing. In one room
door. was shut and the rocking-chairs
rocked. At Atchison there was a severe
shock, and hundreds of people rushed
into the streets. In the city clerks office
the chandeliers trembled for ten minutes
after the shock. No damage was done.
The earthquake was also felt in st.
Joseph, Mo-, and in st. Paul, MINI.
On November 16, the day following
the earthquake in the West, violent
earthquake shock was felt at Knoxville,
Tenn. The shock was apparently only
perceived at this place in the South, as
there are no reports from any other
Southern city of such an occurrence.
Knoxville buildings are not reported to
have been damaged.

Productions Of States.

Iowa now takes rank as the greatest
wheat-producing State, Minnesota comes
next in order, then Illinois, Wisconsin
taking the fourth place. Ohio raises the
most winter wheat and wool. Illinois
grows the most corn and oats and pro-
duces the largest number of fat cattle
and hogs. Pennsylvania grows the most
rye, amounting to nearly one-ffth the
total production of that cereal in the
States. California produces the greatest
barley crop, and also the most silk CO.
coons and wine New York gives us the
greatest amount of hay, hops, potatoes,
peas and beans. Sweet potatoes are
most largely produced in North Carolina.
South Carolina is the great rice-pro.
ducing State Georgia comes next, and
then Louisiana these three States yield
ing nearly the whole rice crop of the
country. Louisiana also produces nearly
all the cane sugar and molasses. Yer
mont, the most of the maple sugar, OF
,one-third of the whole product. New
Yc--k coming next. Indiana gives the
NOS sorghum, one-eighth, and Ohio
nearly as mich. Kentucky produces
over 100, 600, 600 pounds of tobacco, ol
considerably over one-third of the whole
crop also one-half OF all the hemp pro
duced in the United States.

frequently duplicated since, and lately,
we believe, even by an English woman
sinks into the grade of minor per-
formances. Robert Shippers 1000 hall
miles in 1000 half hours was not nearly
as remarkable performance as this Of
Gales, because the length of continuous
sleep possible at each resting interval
was much greater: Gales previous feat

The That 1.SYSsass sr selsr.

That the harmful influence upon the human
system OF malaria may be effectually counter
acted has been demonstrated for years past by
the protection afforded the inhabitants of vast
America, Guetamala, Mexico and the West
Indies by Hostetters Stomach Bitters. Used
as preventive, they have invariably been
found to be most reliable safeguard against
chills and fever, bilious remittents and still
more malignant types of mslarious disease,
and when employed as a remedy have always
proved their adequacy to the task Of eradicat-
ing such maladies from the system. For dis
orders OF the stomach, liver and bowels, which
in hot climates and miasmatic localities are
particularly rife, the Bitters are prompt and
thorough remedy. They also strengthen the
system, trsnquiize the nerves, promote diges.
