THE frequency Of defalcations and
embellishments is becoming alarming.
The demands Of society which courts
the appearance of virtue. decency, and
wealth without looking beneath the
semblance is constantly leading young
men and old from the confines of honesty
into a semblance of what they are not,
to satisfy the demands of the popular
society of which they demand to be one
at any cost. Once in a while the gam.
ing table opens the till; occasionally
gambling on a grander scale on Wall
street creates the deficit; but more often
it is to pay to have ones vanity tiekled
by a society which his salary alone will
not allow him to swing In, aud for the
court of which he stakes his honor and
all against a game which he cannot
leave and which is bound ito turn
against him.

OUR CHANCE FOR A RAILROAD.

For sometime We have been talking about
"a railroad. We now have an opportunity
to secure road and upon terms which
our people will accept. The road is the
very road our parish wants connecting us
with 81. louis on the north with New Or
leans ON the south. Judge Richardson
aud Mr.. :. Y. Gladney returned from
Hope, Ark, Sunday last where they had
been Ia negotiate with railroad company,
and We are pleased to state that these grs-
tlrnlcn made contract NTH tho company
which, If ratified 10y the people, viii bring
a railroad through our parish, running by
Inyuc.,illr and Homer, within eighteen
months, and in all probability in much
shorter period. II the people Of this parish
wish u railroad, that wish can now be
gratiiird. We believe our people will
avail Themselves of the opportunity that is
now open to them. In short time we
shall lay the proposition which the com
pany has made before our people and urge
Ihcm TO accept il. We are in favor of
railroads We believe the future of our
parish depends largely upon the action our
people take on this question, and Il all pre-
judice is Laid aside aud the question looked
at ~ "A business proposition, We believe our
people will if necessary ,ot. a tax sufficient
10 raise the amount of mon y nee, ssLry
to bring the road through the parish.
The friends Of the road are going TO make
n strong effort to secure the money, and
we have no doubt about their success.
Our people<a re in favor of railroad and
will aid willingly TO the extent of their
ability. This is the first opportunity we
have had OF securing road tnat was at all
practicable aud within the reach Of our
people. The prospect of railroad for Ho-
mer and Claiborne parish is brighter than
it has ever been before. flour people are
in earnest aud really want road, We will
have IT, The Guardian 10 heartily in for
the road and will do all in its power to
arouse the interest Of our people on the
ar.stion, and will in the near future have
more to say about the present opportunity
our people and section have to secure inst
such a road AS viii hest serve th. interest

FAIR PLAY.

Phe contest for the nomination is grow
ing quite warm between the friends OF
Congressional aspirants in our parish As
yet the parish Executive Committee has
failed TO call Bass meeting to elect dele
gates to the convention. A meeting of
thi. body was called for last Saturday
week but u quorum was not present, and
the committee will meet again on the 18th
of the present month. There are some who
seem to be apprehensiye that the Execu-
tive Committee is not disposed 10 do ex-
actly the fair thing. Whispers are heard
that the committee will not call a mass
meeting, but select the delegates to the
convention itself. We do not credit such
reports. A majority Of the committee
may, for aught we know, have very de-
cided preference between the candidates,
but the committee is composed Of honora-
BILE, high-toned gentlemen, aud will not
assume the authority to appoint delegates
to the convention. The committee will
leave this for the people to whom it pro-
perly belongs. The Executive Committee
is not the Democratic party, and will hot
assume TO represent the party further than
to call n mass meeting. When the COM
mittee assemblies next Saturday, We are
satisfied that mass meeting ill be called
aud due notice be given thereof. This is
what the people demand and the people
will bc satisfied with nothing short Of this
The people are expected to ratify the
nomination and have right to say who the
nominee shall be. The people wish an OPP
portunity Of expressing their wishes and
preferences in this matter, and We feel
satisfied that our Executive Committee
will not ignore the people. 1t makes no
difference who they, IA individuals, favor,
when they assemble as a committee they
are to know no one and only provide for
the people to ,ireitlr the claims Of candid
atrs. The friends Of Gen. King only ask
for fair play. They ask that a mass meet
ing be called after due notice being given
of the same. With anything short Of this
they will not he satisfied. This we feel
assured our committee will grant them.
