Mr.. ]. Curtis Waldo, of New Orleans,
who has been engaged for the past
two weeks in making a Directory Of
Alexandra and Pineville, having
completed his work here, leaves to-
day or tomorrow for Natchitoches,

eat reception at the hands Of the
hospitable citizens of Natchitoches,
as the enterprise in which he is en-
gagged must rebound greatly to the
interests Of her entire population.
That her business men appreciate
this fact, and will give him every
encouragement we have no doubt.
Mr. Trust expects to return here as
soon as his work at Natchitoches is
completed, and We hope that every
business man in Alexandria and
Pineville, who has not already given
him an advertisement, will make up
their minds to do so by his return.
Remember that you are not helping
him, but yourselves, your Town and
your Parish. Communications may
be sent him to the care of this Office.

The RESULT. PREDICTION
Without setting forth our reasous
we are confident that Hancock and
English have carried, besides all the
Southern States, the following 10 the
North and West: New York, New
Jersey, Indiana, Nevada, California
and Oregon. These States, with the
solid South, will cast 200 Electoral
votes, 1856 being a majority of the
Electoral College. In Connecticut,
the Democratic nominees. have at
least even chances, while in Maine
the odds are in their favor, for four
Electors, on the Fusion ticket. The
lower House of Congress will be very
close, but we believe will be Demo.
cratic by a small majority. The
best that the Republicans can hope
for in the Senate will be an equal d.
vision, which is not probable. We
believe, too, that in HaDcock's own
State, Pennsylvania, the Republican
will be greatly reduced.
Tomorrow ne shall know.

DIED !:

IN this Town, on Tuesday. October e.
1880, WILLIAM TALLY, In the sSth
year Of his ago.
Mr.. Tally was 4 native of Louisiana,
and one Of the oldest citizens Of Rap
ldes Parish, where he has resided since
1878. Though q mere boy, he entered
the service Of his country, at the call
made by the President, when tho
threatened invasion of Louisiana BY the
British, in 1915, became imminent.-
He saw some service, and, At the closo
Of tho war, received an honorable dis
charge. As q veteran Of an army which,
more than any other, has shed imper-
tshable luster upon tho American name,
his services were rewarded with tho
pension granted to the soldiers of tho
war 1912, and when the infrmities Of
age had incapacitated him for the active
duties Of life, he was enabled to meet
actual wants by tho generous aid OF tho
government he had contributed to aus
tain. May his last sleep, be the sleep,
which will awake to everlasting life.

1t would furnish a. striking In

think, the Republican managers re-

uppermost in a dozen States at the

with complete overthrow. they have
recourse to the despotic and tyran-
meal methods employed by the Rad
ical leaders in Louisiana, under the
Kellogg administration, to throttle
the Press, and by perjury and the
strong arm of the government they
seek to crush the men who have the
boldness to expose the infamies they
seek to perpetrate. Their insolence
and utter disregard of the most cher

POPULAR ELECTIONS.

The fierce and violent partisanship
which is the distinguishing charac-
teristic in American politics, and the
utter uuscrupulousness which pc
litical leaders nowadays exhibit, are
truly iamentable, and are calculated
to shake the faith, and to destroy
the confidence Of homes. men in all
parties. There have been demago-
CUES and ,ricksters in all ages, who
in appeals to popular prejudices, and
by Misrepresentation, have sought
to accomplish their ends, when ar
guments and sound reason would fail
to convince, but, We believe that 1t
has been reserved for our own times
to produce the most dangerous spec
linens Of that obnoxious class, as
they are the most prolific In the in
ventiou Of expedients and the N ost
unprinclpled iu their applications
The dangers to which our free insti-
tations are subjected, are not such
only as spring from this siemorali
ziDg condition Of things. ios We ar e
still confronted with that charming
and most dangerous precedent,
whereby the will of the people, as
declared at the ballot box, has been
set aside with as much complacency
as the autocratic Gear would order
the decapitation Of his would be as-
sassin. Majorities for this or the
other candidate may be made to de.
pend upon the political complexion
of the officials who compile the re-.
turns, and promulgate the result.
Until parties can 60 to this root of
all evil, there can be no guarantee
that the will of the people will ever
End honest expression, nor any
change in the belief of honest and
intelligent voters that, having lost
the substance, they cling only to the
shadow of liberty.
