We mnouneeto-day, as the choice
of the democracy of Caleasieu, sub
iect to the nomination of the Dem
ocratic- g Conservative party, in con
yention assembled, for State Treas
urer. Hon. John C. Moncure, OF
Caddo, and for Congress, from this
district, Hon. Joseph lei. Acklen, OF
St. Mary. The former was fairly
elected State Treasurer at the last
general election, and was counted
out by the Returning Board OF IN
J famous memory. The latter was
elected to Congress from this dis
trict, but owing to an error IN count
ing several hundred repubilcantlck-
cts in Iberville parish as straight
republican tickets, which had Ack-
LENS name on them instead OF Dar-
rails, the Returning Board and the
present Board of CanvasserS both
returned Dalrall elected. Under
order of Court there was recount
of the Ibelville tickets, which
showed Aclllen's election. and after
formal contest he was seated by
the House of Representatives after
the expiration of a large portion OF
the term for which lie was elected.
1t is safe to say he did more hard
work and more valuable service for
his constituents, during the frac-
tion of his term after he was seated,
than any other newly elected mem
Der of the last Congress. His ser
vices to Calcasieu are public history,
and would have been ereditable to
a Congressman of the most extern
sive influence and experience. He
has more than justified the conf
dence reposed in him, and we feel
sure that his denomination will be
hailed with delight by the demo
cracy of his entire district. The
democracy of Calcasieu and Cam
eron are unit in favor of his re-
election, and we have no doubt viii
instruct theirdelegates accordingly.

New Orleans Democrat.
A representative of tue Democrat had
o conversation yesterday with the Hon.
j. III. Aekien. who started in the even
ing for Washington. Col Aeklen un
derfakes the journey for the purpose Of
clearing himself of every particle OF
odium that may be attached to bis name
in consequence of the seundelous and
slanderous story published about him.
and we have no doubt that be wi n come
out scot free. The dispersion east upon
him is too gross to touch lis good fame,
and he is now only anxious to bring the
slanderers to punishment In the
course of conversation we touched upon
various subjects of public interest,
among Others, the subject of the appro-
priations granted to Louisiana for in
teinal improvements by the Congress
just adjourned. 1T is entirely unjust,
said Mr.. .Acklen, that sone newspapers
should eensufe the representatives from
Louisiana for7their failure III obtaining
more. "Tbey have succeeded in getting
from the Federal government this year
more than has ever been granted to
Louisiana since the war Their COM
bined efforts got 1926, 900 for the I'M
proRement of Red river aud an appro-
pfiation of $50 .0nOf the harbor of New
Orleans. /, myself, with mneh exer-
ton and difficulty, obtained further
more a special appropriation of SIC, 1000
for the Lafourehe. All this, as you
may know, has not been done without
q great deal OF work, and it would be
unjust in the people of Louisiana If
they did not appreciate it. 1t is hard,
j know, for those who are not eognizani
of the facts to understand all the diff
eulties which we had to overcome. As
it is, i think that, everything eonsid-
cred, appropriations amounting in al
to &185, 900 are as much as the people
of this State could expect with good
workers to push matters through for
them"

COLoRED SCHOOL EXHIBITION
AND PIC-NIC.-llhe colored school
at Lake Charles began it's last SEES
sion on the first Of last February,
under John Allen, (colored) teacher.
On the ed of last month the school
gave public exhibition, followed
by a picnic. Many speeches were
recited from the second and third
reader by scholars who four months
before did not know the alphabet.
There were also several speeches
by colored children not connected
with the school. The school exer-
cises were supplemented by a pic
ME, attended by aboutone hundred
and fifty colored people, old and
young, at which there was an
abundant and excellent supply OF
eatables, and where the greatest
enjoyment prevailed, without the
slightest disturbance or i'll feeling.
Great interest lis manifested here
among the colored people in relig-
ion, educationand temperance; and
we are glad to make d note OF it.
