The time for opening the World s
Exposition is fast approaching, and
yet nothing has been done to have
this parish properly represented.
In many parishes associations have
been formed, and committees np-
pointed to make a collection Of the
various agricultural, mineral and
industrial products. In the way OF
fruits, berries and vegetables, St
Tammany could make highl,
creditable showing. Figs and
grapes will soon be ripe, and these
two articles alone, If properly pre-
served. would tend to attract at
'ention to our parish. But tile first
thing to be done is to organize a
Parish Exposition Association, and
appoint committees to collect and
take charge of articles Intended for
exhibition, and perfect all neces-
sary arrangements. We hope this
matter will receive prompt atten-
ton, in order that the world NAV
learn something Of our parish, its
products and resources.

TO MISS

''Can old acquaintance he forgot"
Let not the thought detile the mind.
"A summer friend" thoult find me not
Remembrance e'er with me thou'lt find
A constant friend I'd rather be,
Forever in thy thought to dwell,
Remembering. though cannot see;
Ever thy prospects wishing well.
Dost thou to jealousy give room?
Zen though not .nrst thy place may be,
Right gladly welcome her to whom
gave my heart Ger saw thee.
Can anything our friendship sever?
Know, then, that We are friends forever.

lNvEsTIaArE.-The citizens Of the
country parishes nre not particu-
larry Interested in the late election
for local officers in New Orleans,
liz which there are such wholesale
charges OF fraud. But so long as
the matter is to be investigated,
there is one subject that we hope
will receive due investigation, and
Ill the facts he brought to light.
We refer to the vote on the State
debt amendment. It is impossible
for us to believe that out of 81, 200
voters, $4,000 of them deliberately
voted to increase the interest on
the State debt. If, as a liberal es-
innate, three-fourths of the citizens
OF New Orleans voted for it, the
amendment would still have been
defeated by the votes of the other
parishes. The people of the State
are opposed to this amendment,
and we firmly believe, if the matter
is sifted to the bottom. every ballot
box in New Orleans will be found
to contain "mare's nest" at least
so far as the vote on Amendment
No. is concerned.
