EDITOR CHIEF:
Last Monday an election for Mayor and
Aldermen was held at this town and the
citizens were not backward in coming for
ward and showing their manhood by cast
ing their votes for the men of their choice
II right which all true American citizens
are entitled to and which none but those
having dishonest motives would attempt to
deprive them of. The election passed off
very quietly-except the loud cheering
every now and then for the leading NJ an, as
the case might be-and much in terest was
shown by the friends of the opposing
parties. AS the following result will show,
it was very close contest:
THE CANEzA TICKET.
For Mayor-Andrew Caneza, 212.
For Aldermen-Wm Schlater, 220: Edgar
Mark, 227; Fred Wilbert, PIT; Joe Roth,
1873; Wade Hampton, 1e9.
THE HKBERT TICKET.
For Mayor-Jules Hebert, $50.
For Aldermen-Peter Wilbert, 269: 2.
Viguet, 255: V. Dupuy, 260; A. Randall, 225;
Henry Ennis, 226.
Hebert's majority for Mayor, SO. The
Council elects the Treasurer, Secretary,
Marshal, etc.
Sam Bigley, who was shot by Caneza on
asst Saturday week, is improving and will,
believe, soon be on the streets again. l
fear the trouble will not end here, as it is
rumored Bigley says it will not.
There are to be three shingle factories in
this town. Wilbert, Sons & Co., have theirs
nearly completed, a CO mpany from st
Louis is erecting saw mill and shingle
factory and gentl e1nan from Shreveport
is to pu t up very large shingie factory.
Mercantile business very dull; crops good
water falling fast on Crosse Tete.
Mr.. Peter Wilbert was married yesterday
eve to Miss Ophelia Leblanc, charming

given last night in q Mon Fire Co.'S. Hal,
in honor of the occasion.
A large number of fire ladies will parti-
cipate with the Donaldsonyille boys in their

The Viguets defeated the Magnolias at
base ball last Sunday by two runs. The
Nolans can look for a challenge from the
Viguets shortly and I would advise your
players to brush up.
The fish bite fast, but mosquitoes and
gnats bite faster.
