TEE EXPEDITION.

In anethrr column will lie found u
call frsm the president Of the poll
jur, Of Grant to the citizens Of TIE parrish
I" meet the police jury ut CoIfax on
the first Monday in April tn advist'
with them in regard tO having Grant
represented at the " 'rld's Exposition
which opens in New Orleans Dec. l,
1884. This is a matter which should
receive the attention aud encourage
ment Of every citizen If the parish.
All Of our neighl,ors have made ar
engagements for an exhibit If their vr
sources aud products ut that EXPOSE
fion, and Grant should not le lHlsiud
her sisters. We can show ~ fine corn,
cotton, hay, oats, cane, timl~r, uns@,
vegetables and fruit as any parisI'in tn,
State; aud at a very small cost to the
PARISH.
What Grant in common with the
rest Of the State needs is immigration
And the only way M induce ia'mlsr;l-
ton Of the right sort is to show what
can he done in tis~ parish. IN no otl'er
way could the parish expend the small
amount needed for an exhibit tn ~
great an advantage. II the exhibit
were to induce ouly two families Of
thrifty, industi ions people tn sett .
among Ms, it would I've cheap ut live
hundred dollars. We have rsDm, am

in our parish, and let III induce them
tn come, by showing them what they
can raise here, how cheap they can
live, aud that perfect Freedom If ol'in
inn and expression IN both religion and
politics exists in our midst.
Let us then see gathering Of repre-
sentative men here On the 9TH ut April
to encourage the police jury to ds
what will greatly advance the inter

parison between.the domestic life
of Dorsey and that ideal Ameri-

speech, Mr.. Z. A. Savoy arose and paid glow
