Considerable building was done last
year in the southwestern portion of
the city and the outlook for the pres
ent year is equally favorable. The
buildings in question are mainly
workingmen's houses of the better
class. Josiah Bond who owns a large
subdivision just west Of the city re-
ports a number of sales to parties who
propose to make Immediate improve
ments. Land in this neighborhood is
held at good prices and is rapidly in
creasing in value. The north side is
rapidly filling up and but few vacant
lots are to be found south of the city
limits.

LET'S IA We THE ORIGINAL

All accounts agree, that Mr.. Hayes
and oil the visiting Statesmen were de-
lighted at the decision of the Supreu e
Court of Louisiana. They ran around
and congratulated each other, and
shook hands, and said in q manner il
not in words, "At last VIC are safe"
But II the logic Of the strange decision
Of the Court be severely carried out 1t
tends more to unsettle the title Of Mr..
Hayes than even the conviction Of An.
dcrson and Wells. The Court decides
that the technical crime Of forgery was
not committed, because "the document
offered was n consolidated statement
certified by the Register of voters, and
not the original returns ; and the
statute Of our State does not attach
much important, TO q consolidated
statement. The original returns not
being altered would not change the
result Of an election and interfere with
the interest Of the people, This, il
sound law, renders the work Of the
Returning Board nugatory the ICON.

The decision Is a two-edged sword. II
it rescues the Returning Board from
the charge Of forgery by declaring its
work to be Of no effect, then the work
Of canvassng the votes ought 10 DO

tinctly, "lfevery consolidated return

complied with tho law, and made their
statements from the Commlssioners' re-
turns no injury could result. Il Is the
ssecnce of this crime, that IL should be-
