A PROSPEROUS 1NsT1TITIoN.-It

steady progress made by Covington
High School. Although establish

Of pupils has increased to such an
extent that it has become necessary
to employ another teacher. AIr.
Dunbracco, the Principal, had too
much on big hands when he was
compelled to hear and instruct
some sixteen or seventeen different
classes every day. The services of
Mrs. L. Ell. Hawkins have been Sc
cured for the Primary Department,
thus relieving the Principal of the
smaller children, and giving him
more time to deyote to the higher
grades. Mrs. Hawkins is gradu-
ate of McrrisoG's Academy. Balti-

er. Although the scholars under
her charge will be in separate

ELECTION DAY.

We hope every Democrat, and
every lover of good government,
will come forward next Tuesday
end do his duty. There are about
1900 voters in This parish, about
two-thirds of whom are Democrats.
With full vote, therefore, we
ought to give Col. Heron about
500 majority. The Republicans
never miss vote-they always 60
to the polls. We hope no Demo-
crat will SO far neglect his duty as
to fail to cast his vote. 1t is true,
we may not need every mans vote
in the parish to carry lie day, but
if too many should think that way
and stay at home, there is some
danger of defeat, where victory
would otherwise be certain. Our
candidate, Col Heron, is in every
way worthy to be our Representa-
tive. He is highly qualified for the
position; he is thoroughly CONVEX
SAINT with the wants of our people,
ana his high character and stand
ing, as man of great intelligence
and experience in public affairs,
will insure him an influence in the
halls of Congress that will enable
him to accomplish the greatest pos
sible good for our section. 1t is
not only duty ard a pleasure, but
an honor, to vote for such a man,
and to know that he is to be our
Representative. There is not
District or State in the Union that
would not be proud to claim him as
its Congressman. He has been in
public life nearly forty years, and
filled many high and responsible
positions, yet not a single word can
be said of Linn, except in praise.
Since his nomination, he has been
hard at work, having visited every
parish IN the District, addressing
the people wherever he went. He
has faithfully performed bis duty as
our standard-bearer, and II now re-
mains for us to do our duty by turn.
ing cut en- masss and voting for him
next Tuesday. We earnestly hope
that when the polls are closed there
will not be single Democrat in
the parish who can say Il didn't
vote to-day"
