SERENADED LOGAN.


WASHINGTON, Special Telegram, June 21.-
This evening 500 veterans of the two wars
took a hand in the business Of ratifying.
They did a good Job. IT could not well have
been more thorough and complete. The
column formed at city hall and at 8 o'clock
came marching up Pennsylvania avenue
preceded by the old Marine band and
company of Washington's light infantry.
Along the entire line Of march there was a
constant fusilade of Roman candles, while
along the side Of the street passed a
cart freighted with red and blue fire
which was dumped at frequent intervals and
the match applied the effect being pietur-
esque in the highest degree. In front and
rear and upon both sides of the column the
street was filled with a dense crowd that
seemed to catch the enthusiasm Of the
soldiers and along the whole route there
was perfect pandemonium Of shouting and
singing The front of Gen Logan's house
was tastefuIly decorated, while many of the
generals neighbors manifested their
kindly feeling by displaying their ban
ners on the outer walls Gen
Raum very neatly presented TO Gen
Logan the congratulations of the veterans
As Logan stepped forward to speak, he was
greeted with tremendous and prolonged
cheering. He was often Interrupted by out
bursts Of applause, which attested the hearty
approval Of his patriotic utterances, arc
especially of his declaration IN FAVOR OF
unfolding the integrity of the nation and the
protection of all its citizens at home and
abroad. This sentiment was received with
cheers that continued several minutes When
the sneaker mentioned the name of James
G. Blaine, there was another perfect tornado
of shouts.

SWEET IBERvII,I,E.

Under the leadership of Hons. Theophile
T. Allan, j. s. Davidson and their asso-
ciates, the Republicans of Iberville have in
augurated a canvass that promises to sweep
that parish and the district composed OF
Iberville and West Baton Rouge by the
largest majorities given the candidates OF
any party there. By indorsing the indie
pendent candidacy of Capt. Allen Jumel,
they have forced MFR. Montan, the Demo
cratic nominee for Senator, out of the field,
and by nominating for Sheriff, Capt. Chas.
A. Brusle, perhaps the most prominent
man in the parish, Democrat or Repub-
lican, backed by such representative Re-
publican candidates as Messrs. Allan,
Davidson and Verret, the unity of the
masses of the people, without political dis
tinction, has been secured on local issues.
We print the Iberville ticket in another
column, in connection with that of our own
parish and district, and have no doubt we
shall record its triumphant success at the
election of the ed inst.

What Chatham is Getting Ready to Do,
and What Other Counties Are Al
ready Doing.
Commissioner Harden is actively at
work organizing for Chatham's exhibit at
the New Orleans Exposition. The solic-
iting committee to canvass the city for
subscriptions to the Exposition fund is
being appointed and will be announced in
a few days. Everything is
moving satisfactorily to the Com
missioner and there is not a doubt
that Savannah will have one of the finest
and best arranged, if not the most extern
sive exhibits from any part of the South.
In conversation in regard to the eX-
position, Judge Harden said to a MORN
ING News reporter that the buildings at
New Orleans are rapidly approaching
completion, and that every de-
partment Of the work is making good
progress. Gentlemen recently arrived
from New Orleans say that horticultural
hall, which Will soon be completed. will
be one Of the most airy and beautiful
structures ever erected Tor such pur-
pose. They speak especially of the sky
light, which is sixteen feet wide at the
apex Of the roof, and extends the entire
length of the building. This is made of
iuted glass, and of the finish of the in
terror, which brings into prominence the
beautiful cOlOring Ofthe Southern pine.
''One of the most remarkable things
about the enterprise" he said, sis that.
Notwithstanding the marked business de-
preston throughout the country, and a
condition of great anxiety in financial
circles, it has produced no perceptible
effect upon manufacturers. who are apply
ing in great numbers every day for space
in which to make exhibits"
''As to our own exhibition" continued
the Judge, everything viii depend upon
the amount of money we can raise.
Chatham will either exhibit her enterprise
and progress or her apathy. 1t remains
for the people to decide which,"
'There is not a great deal of time in
which to get an exhibit ready" remarked
the reporter.
''No, there is not a great deal of time,
but there is time enough if the people
move at once. We want to make an ex-
hibit of which the city and county will be
proud. We want TO send 1t to the State
Fair and let the people of Georgia know
what we have got"
scan you give any idea of what is being
done in other parts of the Stateg''
Il do not know what the exhibits will
be from other counties. but the people
throughout the State are at work, and
will send their varied wealth and re-
sources as an evidence of what Georgia
has and what she can dO.'
