1T was the intention of the
Natchez, Red River and Texas Rail
road Company to have begun on
Monday, August IA, actively the
work of grading, track -laping, ETC.,
on their road, but the recent strike
of the hands excepting Mr.. NJ. j.
Greany's may interfere somewhat
with their plans. The strike cannot
entirely stop work, as by Monday
the company will have big convict
force that they will put to work, and
tlfe construction of the road will be
pushed vigorously to Trinity, in time
to handle this years cotton crop.
We hope the difficulties between the
company and the striking workmen
may be speedily adjusted, and the
progress Of the enterprise not he
stopped by this untoward occurrence.

ELECTIONS.

The most important election this
Fall is that to be held in Ohio in
October. The Democrats are wary
and confident, and it is easily to be
observed that the Republicans feel
doubtful and insecure. The New
York Times is moved by its CORES
pondence to remark that the po!iti
cal situation is not encouraging from
a Republican standpoint. The Brook
lyn Eagle has been studying the
Ohio campaign, and arrives at the
very sensible conclusion that the
Republicans are in a bad fix. 1t can
not conceive a worse position for Il
party to be in. 1t recalls the fact
that they are faction ridden, shave a
bad Congressional record to face,
are suspected by the Germans of
favorlng sumptuary legislation, find
themselves condemned by the regu.
lar straight out Prohibitionists as
hypocriticaI, and have to plead gull.
ty to the charge of the tax payers
that their administration of the
State has been both loose and dis
honest. If under these circumstan-
ces the Democrats cannot win, there
is hardly any imaginable combiua-
ton of circumstances FROM which
victory would issue. N. O. Daily
