: Immigration.

EDITORS OF THE C0UKiER
4 committee, on the pa,C OF fhc In
migration Society of st. Landry parish
has petitioHed the Police Jury to make
an appropriation 10 aid in establishirs
and sustaining sncEt mn association
within the parish.
In view of this fact, il il proper tina
the public should understand the pnr
poses and intents Of this society.
This association proposes not only to
invite but to induce immigrants to oul
parish. We propose to offer every fail
.inducement, in our power. 10 immi
grants to come and locate here. We
propose to aid them III locating on State
lands, and we also propose to advise
and assist them in all entries Of United
States and Railroad lands, under the
respective regulations. We propose
further to advise and counsel in i'll such
matters free of any charge whatever
and to furnish and explain the laws and
requirements in each separate case, ac-
cording to the class OF lands.
In so far as we can, we offer to aid in
the location and survey of all such en-
tries of lands secured or made through
-Four instrumentality. In short we pro-
pose, not only to invite the immigrant
to come and dwell with us but we
promise our friendship, our welcome
and our aid and advice.
The most important and essential
feature of our organization is the record,
TO be kept by the Secretary, OF
all lands of the State.and General Gov
ernment, within the Parish, subject to
entry. These lands are to be described
by township and section, and their To-
cality is to be given as far as possible.
This book, is to be open to the inspec-
ton of all persons at all times, and in
formation is to be given (gratis) con-
corning the lands and the laws relative
thereto.
In addition, another record book is to
be kept, in which may be entered
all private lands offered for sale by the
owner. The location and description
of such private lands, with the terms
of sale, will also be given, For the en-
Try of such private lands, a fee of fifty
cents only will be charged.
We do not fear to assert, i'll case only
a few hundred immigrants can be
brought to the Parish through the efforts
of our society, that the Parish will be
more than repaid for the appropriation
We ask, by means of the increase of tax
able property brought within the Par
ish, and by means of the increase in
value OF all the lands or the parish tax
roll. And this increase in value viii
not cease at the end of the year but,
having once received an impetus, the
increase in value will advance with
each succeeding year, and must finally
enhance the worth of all classes of prop
erty.
We see these results in many of the
other States Why should we not expect
like results here? Let us only make
an earnest effort, and success mnst
surely attend us.
e. G. SwAYZE,
Secretary.

Cur Choice for Congress.

The recent death Of the lamented A.
s. Heron. member elect to Congress
from this District, viii necessitate the
election of his successor 1T an early date.
Before tue late nominating Convention
our preference was then. and is now.
the Hon. Henry L. Garland of this par
ish. the leading member of our bar and
a citizen distinguished alike for his
scholarly attainments, broad aud CON
servative craftsmanship, and sound
political convictions: a patient but vig-
osous thinker, with Il mind that slfts his
subjects to the bottom; yet Il man sin
gularly free from aspirations for politi
cal preterment or civic position and re-
nown. In point of qualifications, talents.
patriotism, consistency, and social
qualities he has no superior in the Sixth
Congressional District, nor could bet
ter, more competent, and more faithful
representative be elected to represent
our people at the National Capital. As
we have said, the Hon. FL. L. Garland
seeks no Office, and to accept one at the
hands of our people world involve a
peeuniary sacrifice on his part, as he
would have to abandon large and
lucrative practice in the profession of
law, besides his extensive planting in
terests which claim his constant super
vision in our parish. But being no
aspirant for Office, and being independ-
ent of one, associated with his splendid
fitness for the same, make stronger the
reason why he should be chosen by our
people to be our representative. He
was the unanimous choice of the st.
Landry delegation before, and we be-
lieve he will be again. If nominated.
we believe him to be too patriotic to de-
cline such testimonial of confidence
from the people of the Sixth Congress
siona! district.
