When a certain class of people
fall out, then honest men, if they do
not exactly get their dues, at least
findo how they have been robbed.
Weber, ex-State Senator, recently
testified before the New Orleans In
vestigating Committee, that when
Kellogg claimed to be Governor,
firing" of 10 Senators-a majority
of one-was formed, for the passge
of such bills as there might be
money in. Tom Anderson, Weber,
Twitchell, and Burch, were in the
ring; and Kellogg was the ring
master. The ring received s21, 900
for passing the Levee bill, and
S21, 900 for passing the State House
bill. Of course, Kellogg received
the lions share for signing the bills.

The Shreveport Daily Times of
the 14th, contains the following
courteous compliment:
Mr.. w. 81. ScanIand, editor of
the BOSsIER BANNER, announces
himself as candidate for the nomi-
nation for State Senator for the dis
trict composed Of the parishes of
Bossier. Webster, Claiborne and
Bienville.
Mr.. Scanland has served one term
in the Lower House and made a
most excellent member. He is a
gentleman of good ability and I'M
Improbable integrity, and if elected
will represent the district faithfully
and well. He has, in an editorial
capacity, served the party long and
ably, and is certainly entitled to
recommendation at its hands.
We see that Bienville claims the
Senatorship and do not know how
this claim will affect Mr.. Scanland's
chances; nor are we apprised wheth-
er or not Hon. A. B. George is vii
ling to accept a nomination.
Mr.. A. d. Battle, editor of the
Times, has known us since our early
childhood, and, for such fattering
endorsement as the above, coming
from a man whose friendship we
have enjoyed nearly a quarter of a
century, we feel deeply grateful.
Accept our gratitude, friend Battle,
for you already have our friendship.

part of those who find 1t Iifficult to
sleep soundly: "Do not sleep a mo-

regular hour and never take second
nap after waking yourself in the morn
ing. Never go to bed very hungry,
nor with wet feet. Read nothing after
supper of very exciting character.
Let no angry words be spoken or

after tea time, for death may come be
fore the morning light"

The Ohio farmer says: Stair
carpets should always have a strip OF
paper put under them, at and over the
edge of every stair, which is the part
where they first wear out, in order to
lessen the friction of the carpet against
the boards beneath. The strips should
be within an inch or two as long as the
carpet is wide, and about four or five
inches in breadth, so as to lie a distance
from each STAIR

Brandon was in town, Tuesday,
and bought his Thanksgiving turkey
of w. H. Schram. And we helped
him carry the old gobbler to the depot.
He paid for the turkey on specie
basis, which leads us to remark that
times must be getting better, or certain
editors are getting mighty reckless, OF
folks didn't raise many turkeys, OF
they keep big dog to watch them.
We never would have thrown money
away in that reckless manner if we
didn't get turkey until after the
deluge. No sir. Better is chicken
with contentment than turkey you
are compelled to pay for.

gions during October,!as near az en- be
learned from reports now in, were

was $4,000 barrels. thus showing
that there was reduction in stock of
4O5, ,957 barrels. This calculation is
based on the statement that the average
daily production is $4,000 barrels, as
the bears claim. The bulls, however,
claim that the production is not over
10000, and that the reduction is there
fore nearly, if not quite, half a million

While Mrs. Service sat by her win
dow sewing, shot struck the glass
just above her head, shivering it to
atoms, the pieces falling close to the
lady's head. The shot was probably
from the sling-shot of some boy. But
the question as to whether the sling
shot nuisance should not be abated
seems to be pertinent one. If shot
from one of these toys can be thrown
over Hyde's store, or imbeaded in a
pine board, why is it not reasonable to
suppose that there is danger in their
use?
