~KILLING.~Another of those brn
tai murders which characterize the
civilization of the nineteenth cen
tury occurred on the Laurel Valley
plantation, three miles below Thibo

O'Clock P. N.
A negro man named Antony Sea
vers stalled Barbary'F itz, whom he
claimed as his wife, so fatally. that
she died in about two hours
The murderer came up to .Thibo

bridge, aud placed in Jail.
The woman killed was we'll known

The murderer is about % years

On last Saturday afternoon a ere
vase occurred some FIVE miles be
low Lockport on the West bank of
the bayou, on Apollinaire Bour
geois' place.
The Bayou began to fall here
about 9 o'clock on Sunday and fell
about 81 inches during the day.
This break will cause q consider
able damage to the planters below
Lockport, most of whom r poor
and not able to stand such disas-
tiers.
The fact is again made apparent,
that levees will not do to preserve
this Bayou from overflow.
The trouble is in the contraction
of the outlet from Raceland down.
The only remedy is 20 clean the
stream and remove the battures so
as to admit egress to the waters
more rapidly.

While no noise and buster have occurred. no fights with the Mormons as such and no particular party i'll feeling against them ss men and citizens, the cons viction has been rapidly growing upon the people of Maricopa county that tLe time IS at hand to speak out against that feature of Mormon doctrines which is in open violation of the laws of the country, the best

THE Republican convention, which
 met yesterday and dispatched its
 work with great expedition, made
 no uncertain move and advocates in
 the platform adopted no uncertain
 or meaningless proposition. The
 platform has rot been mace as q sor; of bait 10 catch a vote. II strikes a; the moral, political and offici al corruption that pervades he cons
 mun1ty, and all of which every good
 citizen of this or any other county would wish to see corrected at the
 earliest possible moment.
 IL advocates in no uncertain way the early construction of railroad,
 the increase of educational facili
 ties, the improvement of our wagon roads, the annibilation of the land
 thieves that curse our county and Territory, the repression of hursfui water Legislation. an exhibition to itc rspple of the county of the bus> mess of the county in way that they may know where their money gees. instead of lhe present system which merIly names and numbers a bill Tresented for payment without giving any idea of its contepisi il would save to the people the amount
 rad for ike present cxtraTagsnt system of making collections and handling the county moneys; in short it advocates improvement of all kinds that would be valuable to the county and the reduction of our taxes bN all jddicious meaps.
 The platform has been made in the interest Of the people of the county, to advocate the measures they would insugurate for the pur- pose ef getting tho county on a sound financiyl basis and opening up it's immense resources to outside thus securing degree of prosperity hitherto unknown in the history of the county. The Repub- lican platform differs very pointedly from the Democratic platform in this respect: That it Is a platform improvement of the ma ierial interests of the people of the county and Territory, while the Democratic platform advocates the gobbling up of offices by its strikers and the enslavement of the people to petty party tyranny and party blood sucking. It aims entirely at secur. ing the predominance of the party over the people, while the Republi> can platform advocates the predom> finance of Inc people over the party.
