dates have been suggested for the po-
sition, among whom we note Gen. Allen
Thomas, q former resident of our parish,
who is being strongly urged for tue DEM
ocratic nomination by many of his
friends. Gen. Thomas is lifelong DEM

dent; Gen. Jastremski, who enlisted for
the war in st. Landry company ana

Telephone Communication.
How 1t Can be Established between Don
jacksonville, Baton Rouge and
New Orleans.

HOW II C8n De ESGADlSHeu DptWeeH DOu-
aldsonville, Baton Rouge and
New Orleans.
New Orleans Times Democrat.
Oflate several merchants aud planters
living in and around Baton Rouge, Dom
Jacksonville and other ncighboring towns
| on the river have expressed a desire for
the establishment of telephone commu-
nication with New Orleans.
70 learn on what basis the Louisiana
Telephone Company, whose office is in
this city, would establish such lines, a
representative of the Times Democrat yes
terday called upon Mr.. w. H. Bofnger,
the general manager. IL answer to in
quiries made lie ssid:
The cost of building telegraph or tele-
phone lines is about $125 per mile, exclu-
sive of submarine cables. IT the business
| men or residents on tho route will sub
scribe an amount sufficient to cover this
cost, the amount to be repaid in CONVEX
sati0n between the cities and towns con-
nected ut the rate of tw enty-fiye cents
for the first ten miles and five cents for
each additional ten miles or fraction
| thereof, for conversations of five minutes
or less, and in proportion for longer COIL
versatiOns; no conversation to be con.
tinued longer than ten minutes, unless
there are no other persons i'll waiting ;
tickets will be issued to subscribers for
the amount of their subscriptions; these
will be received in payment of tolls for
conversations. The amount subscribed
could be deposited in any one bank, sub
ject to the order Of the telephone conf
pany upon the completion Of the line.
Small Telephone Exchanges could be
established in the different towns so that
subscribers could converse from their Of
| fees or residences. Record would he
kept by clerk in each Office or exchange
of every connection, the name of the sub.
scriber calling, the one called, the time
connection was made, the time of discoll-
| nection, the time connected and amount
charged. The party calling-that is, the
party asking for the connection-woult
he charged for the conversation.
This plan has been adopted iii the East
and in some cities of the West, with re.
markable success.
The merchants doing the most business
between the places connected subscribed
literally, the amount being repaid them
as stated. Itassures the support of those
benefited and is certainly an equitable
plan. We expect to see this system es'
tablished. between this city and Baton
Rouge, connecting Donaldsonville and
Plaquemille Ell route.

AN IRISH LOVE SONG.

All! swan of slenderness, dove of tenderness,
Jewel of joys. arise!
The little red lark, like rosy spark
Of song, to his sunburst flies;
But till you are risen. earth is prison,
Full of my captive signs,
Then wake to discover to your fond lover
The morn of your matchless eyes.
The dawn is dark to me; bark, oh! bark to me.
Pulse of my heart, pray,
And gently gliding out of thy hiding,
Dazzle me with thy day!
And oh! III Fly to thee, singing, and sigh to thee
Passion SO sweet and gay,
The lark shall listen, and dewdrops glisten,
Laughing on every spray.

THE NEW YEARS BLESSING.

BY MRS. J. z. SPRAGUE.
The year once SO young is dying.
For it's beard is boar and grey,
And into the past SO dreary
Its hours are slipping away,
1t brought with it much of gladness,
Must it fade in the mist away!
It dawned with glad smiles and graces
10 enrich the humblest breast;
1t dies with them unprotected;
In the past shall we let them rest,
Or carry them into the future,
To bloom into flowers and bless?
All! the year is surely dying,
But its past will never die;
For the germs of JOY OF sorrow
Have been wrought in the days gone by,
Tho deeds it has seen are living,
Their fruits in the future lie.
While we welcome, then, with gladness,
The guest who will come so soon.
Let us still, for the past's great lessons,
Make ample and willing room,
That resolves and promises broken
Into Gods own blossoms may bloom.
May each hour in our future,
Be it howe'er so o'ercast,
Clean with pure air and purpose
That shall strengthen to the last;
So shall the new years blessing
Perfect and crown our vanished past.

gardng the 6ids on carpeting the court
house we flnd is incorrect.
The bids, as upon record, show that Scot,
Bros. Il Co.'S highest bid was 20 cents pei
yard less than the Streator firms highest bid
on the same make Of carpets, making nike
saving to the taxpayers OF this county. The
carpets for the court house have been pur.
chased, and the committee say that nothing
since the commencement of the court house
has gwen them AS much satisfaction az this
carpet purchase.
Scott Bros. & Co. have facilities for buying
which enables them to make prices below
