Her FIXTURE Growing brighter.

The failures and desertions Of the
past commercial year have no doubt
caused approximations in the minds Of
some for the future welfare Of Monroe,
but II the fact be taken into consideras
ton that each failure and each deser-
ton has been followed by new and
solid business men taking the places Of
the old, the conclusion is inevitable
that the people still have confidence
Ia our commercial solldi,y and future
prosperity.
We think The commercial year just
opening promises more Tor Monroe
than any In its history. That our mer.
chants think so too is indicated by the
preparations they are making for the
Fall trade. All anticipate an increased
demand and will be prepared to meet
|it.
Our compress makes Monroe as good
a cotton market as there lie In tho State,
and It is safe to say that it will be the
means OF doubling the sales OF cotton
this year as compared with last year.
The advent Of the cotton buyer is
another advantage to our market. The
planter can bring his cotton here and
get spot cash on the street for it, doing
better than by shipping toany market
in the world. He will also be at lib
esty to 40 his trading wherever il suits
him.
The opening up OF tho Railroad
Bridge to public travel will be of in
calculablc benefit to- Monroe also. II
Twill put us in direct and convenien,
Communication with tho valuable Hill
trade. The bridge will naturally bring
a great deal Of it here but our mer
chants must work it up. There arc
live merchants up and down the v.
s. & Z. who will contend for it and w
must offer other inducements than The
free bridge to bring it here.

The Speaking at Ruston.

About 600 people turned out to hear
the candidates for Congress speak at
Ruston on the 31st. Monroe was well
represented. The programme was car
ried out as printed with the exception
that "the brldle' was taken of, giving
each speaker his own time. This
worked great Injustice to the last two
gentlemen who spoke, Judge Graham,
and Gen. Young. Night came on with
Gen. Young's turn and he could not go
into the questions before the people.
He contented himself In ten minutes
talk,
Capt. H.. p. Wells of Richland was
tho first to address the audience and
he sustained his reputation as forci-
BILE speaker. He went into all ques (.
lions OF the day, stating his position In
plain, unambiguous terms, and Inn"
pressed US as being thoroughly sound,
Gen. King followed 10 q two hours
talk, enquiring whore were all these
candidates in 1878 and SO on. and
evincing q desire for the convention to
nominate some one OF them to run
against him in scrub race for Congress-
He seemed to think that he could snow
under even regular nominee of the
Democratic Convention. The remain-
der Of his time was taken UP by rem
tlering an account Of his stewardship

The Ruston Caligraph, al ants
Gunby paper, in its report Of the
speaking at Ruston on the 31st ult,,
speaks OF Judge .Gunby as follows:
Judge Gunby has the name of being
one of the ablest men in the district,
aud we cannot say that we doubt The
correctness of the claim. He is a fine
physical, as well as mental, specimen
of manhood; has superb bearing and
can be called handsome. He has a
fine voice which enables him to be dis
tinctly heard for quite distance
without much effort on his part. lie
opened with a feeling tribute TO the
democracy of the hill section of the
district and the magniiicence of its
natural advantages and resources, and
in turn delivered a most beautiful! and
touching eulogy upon woman, whose
presence in the assembly he most
fittingly recognized in language most
flowery and captivating. Judge
Gunby declared the levee question to
be the most importantissue concerning
the people of this district of all others.
He is fully committed to the plan of
building the levees by government
aid, and he not only advocates the
claims OF the Mississippi but of the
Ouachita river as well. He is an nn-
compromising friend of National aid to
education and is firm and unyie!d-
| ing believer and advocate of the repeal
OF the railroad land grant. he is
not free trader, but believes in &
reduction of the tariff, not, however,
to the injury of the infant industries
of the South, which he thinks should
be projected. Judge Gunby's speech
was the best oratorical effort of the
day, and though lengthy, he fully
impressed his audience that he knew
what he WAS talking about.
The Ouachita telegraph. [volume] (Monroe, La.) 1865-1889, 1886-09-04

dlscussion Of them was eloquent, able,
conclusive and convincing.
Judge Graham then took the stand.
The applause that greeted him showed
that he was the favorite with the au-
dlence. He made an able speech OF an
hour, disclosing sound views upon all
questions affecting our Interests except
National Aid TO Education, which he
opposes.

they are kept open ouly about two
