LEGAL QUESTION. Hon. G. II.
Barker, Of Beloit, has addressed a letter
to Atty. Gen. Frisby upon the question
inspectors aud clerks of election, which
raises fine question of law. The stat
ute provides that at the first regular
meeting of councils and village boards,
held in September, the mayor orpresi-
dent of the board shall nominate three
inspectors and two clerks of election.
These nominees shall be elected by the
council or board, and in case of failure
of election other nominations are made
as before until elections are secured.
The term of such inspectors and clerks
is fixed at one year from date of election,
and it is provided that such inspectors
and clerks be present at all elections
held during the term. There being no
election last fall, the matter of providing
such inspectors and clerks it is believed
was by the lack of the usual stimulus
overlooked in many cities and villages
of the State. Those elected in Septem-
Der 1882 are without power by statute of
limitation of the term and the question
arises what bearing will the matter have
upon the approaching municipal cleo
tons in places where such inspectors and
clerks were not provided in September
1888. The matter is now under advise
ment

Mrs. Nellie Gibbs Mason who
although now a resident Of Louis

interest in her old home, and in
sympathy with her kindly feelings
forher childhood's home, has paint
ed the banner for this Parish, and

for exhibit.
The banner. is old gold satin in
the center Of which is large shield
painted in oil by Mrs. Mason. y
stately cypress occupies the center
of the scene. On a branch to the
right sits a large owl gazing placidly
into a shady quiet pool which lies
at the foot OF the tree, and on the
surface of which are number OF
water lilies. The repose of the
scene is added to, rather than III
terfercd with b. the presence OF
the owl, and with the quiet blue
sky in the back ground, almost
gives one a feeling Of rest.
The banner at this writing isno'
complete. Over the shield is tC
be embroidered in silk the WORD
Madison. and under the shield the
word Parish. A palmetto or TIVE
will be added to the picture, anC
possibly some other objects tina
may suggest themselves.

OWN YOUR HOUSE.

There are few men who do not
want to own a home Of their own.
How ever small the home may be,
it is therefore. 6 source of more or
less satisfaction to the owner &C
cording to his disposition. There
are people, who could not under
any circumstances, be happy.
There would still be something
that they so earnestly desired, as
to make them thoroughly unhappy,
and disconnected without it. But
the majority Of people are not so
constituted, and while something
will always be wanting, the. desire
for the object or objects wanted, is
not so great as to cause unhappi-
ness. 1t is mere desire, and not
an intense longing. The high rents
for buildings in Tallulah has kept
away several would be, citizen S.

Of half dozen or SO dwellings

by reference to another column. A

hood, is offered for sale at prices

CLEVELAND THE HAN.

Tie dele in announcing the
election of Mr.. Cleveland appears
to be for the purpose Of gaining
time. That is wanted for the pCr-
pose Of getting up some sort Of
stealing scheme on the 1876 plan.
Mr. Blaine instructs the National
Committee to claim everything,
although the Committee We're pre-
pared to concede the election OF
Cleveland. On the 9Th inst, Col.
Lamont, Cleycland's private Sec
rotary, tclegraphed, owe have the
county clerks figures from every
county," yet on the 18th inst, no
more is known than on the oth.
There can be no doubt of Clcve-
lands election. If any errors ex-
listed in the returns, they would
have been discovered long ago.
The New York papers give the
full returns, and stick to them.
The Sun gives its own figures, and
maintains that they are correct.
The Herald does the same. Only
the Tribune claims Blaine is elect
ed, but it gives no figures in sup
port of that claim. It simply reit-
crates the assertion that Blaine is
elected. Wall street admits Clcve-
lands election, and the Blaine men
have paid their bets. All that can
now be expected is the mere formal
announcement, which can be only
that Cleveland is elected.
It's northern State that decides
the election this time not south
EN-, and there will be no throwing
out. The South stands as . lookei
Gil in this matter, and while deep.
! ly interested, is only bound to SET
fair play, and no more. Mr.. Blaine
and his friends can "claim every
thing" if they wish, but it will d
them little good. Many..of his sup
porters are convinced that he is de
feated, and will not coun:enance an.
unworthy methods to prevent Mr.
Cleveland from receiving the re
ward of the victory he has won
Mr.. Cleveland will surely be tn,
next President ofthe United States
and the Senate Will be presided
over by Gov. Hendricks.
There has been some cabine
talk, and it is worthy of remarl
that the South is modest in he
claims. There's no demand from
the South for cabinet positions. l
is eminently proper that the SoutI
should be represented in the cabi
net, but not that Southern me-
should preponderate. One mem
Der she surely should have eve
two would not be unreasonable
bat one should be all that is de
manded. The feeling should be
to demand one, accept two, if Of
fered, and positively decline NOR
under any circumstances. If til
e South should be given the SecrC
: taryship of the Treasury, Maj. +
A. Burke would fill the Office wit
credit to the country, to the State
u and to himself.
