a RT,AINT ROOM.

There are several campaign clubs in the
city of New Orleans, organized for the
purpose of supporting the candidates of the
Republican party, which include among
their members many Of the. leading mer-
chants and business nien Of the metropolis,
most of whom have never before affiliated
with the Republican party and whose pres
ent course is mainly based upon the self
evident fact tIlat the material interests of
this State viii he placed in jeopardy by the
success Ct the Democracy in the approach
ing national election. One CT the most
prominent of these organizations is the
Central Pioneer Blaine Club, and the fol-
lowing list of names added to its roll at

indication of the character and quality of
IFS membership: I. K. Small, G. r. Van

Brown, W. S. Davidson, NJ. d. Childress,
j. K. Nixon, Frank Heron, Henry Austin,

B. Wands, Capt. NJ. Kenison, Capt. Geo.
D. Hite, Larned Terry, G. Dillingham;
f. D. Bernhardt and John Schultz.
A majority of our readers will at once
recognize in this list several of the best
known and most popular steamboatmen
on the lower Mississippi, whose open afilia-
ton with the Republican party is a polit-
ical event of much significance and impor-
lance.
At the same meeting of the club the fol-
lowing preamble and resolutions were
adopted:
WHEREAS, The platform of the Democratic
party adopted at Chicago strikes a blow at the
sugar and rice Industries of the State of LOUIS

ciple, appeal to the voters of Louisiana to

hoWEng one of most damnable tricks practiced
by modern ringsters, that is, they, and not the
people, have the right to say who shall be sent
to Third District Congressional convention to
nominate a Congressman for suffrages of the
masses; and,
Whereas, 1t is established by reliable author
ing to deny the people of that right given them
by virtue OF our nationality, claiming that the
delegates who represented US IN the late State
convention should be and are entitled to seats
IN the approaching Third District Congress
slonal convention to nominate candidate for
the forty-Nlnth Congress; therefore,
Be It resolved, That we, the members of the
club known as the Young Blalres of barrow

justice to denounce any such preparation be
put upon the people.

offered the following resolution.
WHEREAS, We, the people of a sugar district,
being left to the hands Of two great political
parties one of which keeps us from ruin by
danger Of a foreign staple made by slave labor,
and the other, our ayowed enemies, leaving Us
to perish by equalizing our produce with that
of the West Indian Islands, which is made by
slave labor; therefore.
Be it resotued, That we, the Young Blaines OF
Darrowville, do indorse tie actions of the
Chicago Republican convention and pledge cur
entire support to the nominees chosen by said
convention.
On motion of Samuel B. Webb the resolution
was adopted. There being no further business

DuEL.-Capt. j. E. Brou OF St. Charles
parish and Mr.. Evariste Foche of st. james,
two gentlemen we'll known personally and
by reputation to many of our readers, had a
hostile meeting on the Labarre plantation,
half a mile above Camp Parapet, near Car
rollton, last Wednesday morning. The
duel grew out of an alteration between
the parties at West End, during the French
fete of the 18th inst, on which occasion
Mr.. Poche was assaulted and quite severe
1y handled by Capt. Brou. A challenge was
promptly sent by Mr.. Poche and as prompt
ly accepted, the weapons chosen being
'colichemardes, or dueling swords. The
fight was brief but spirited, both princi-
pals displaying perfect courage. At the
second passage Mr.. Poche received a deep
wound in the calf of the right leg, severing
m artery, whereupon the demands of hon
or were declared satisfied and the affair
was brought to close. Mr.. Poche's
wound, though painful, is not considered
dangerous, and he was able to return home
next day on a Mississippi Valley train. The
cause of the difficulty is not explicitly ex-
planned by the city papers, but it seems
clear there was lady in the case and that
jealousy provoked the quarrel.

Why Net Throw Dead Animals INTO

EDITOR CHEF:
Dear .SGr-In answer to the communication Of
friend "Picayune.' and in defense of the action
of Mayor Maurin, allow me to state that not
long since lost my horse and the carcass lay
all day in my yard and no Place could be found
to bury it, There is no ground provided by the
10 En for this purpose a1d no vacant lands in
reach, as was the case when the ordinance pro-
hibitinS the throwing of carcasses in the river
was enacted. Twas therefore compelled to wait
until night to do what is permitted in Vicks-
burg, Now Orleans and perhaps other towns
along the river in open daylight. Provide us
with a place to deposit dead animals or repeal
the ordinance intlicting penalty for throwing
item into the river. Yours truly,
A SUFFERER

zsugar-house snell in it, and possibly written
with centrifugal velocity the following:
They also accepted the responsibility Of sell
ing the lots in the town OF DonaldscnVille do-
mated for school purposes many years ago ana
the amount of 1900 in cash and notes is now
to the credit of the school fund.
And farther, if my eyes do not deceive me:
The public schools of the parish will, for the
want of funds be closed in a few weeks.

St2,oso was respectable amount and sufficient
to run for more than a few weeks our public
schools. Again, see in said report:
Some arrangements will shortly be made as
to it's disbursement 1.-THE $4,000.
What will the result Of the expenditure be?
stylish academic building cornor of Lessard
and Mississippi streets ON the Louisiana
Square? Or will the $4,000 be added to the
$1,000 surplus fevee money, part Of the product
used to pay judgments of Kline and Lefort rem
| dered long ago, and the balance given to some
Roadmaster to throw behind the levee, as was
done last year with the amounts spent on the
| levees below town? It may be none of my bus

But if the School Board Will sift things right
