Will the DAWSON Journal
please correct its table and give
Randolph to Turner in the con-
gressional contest? It's sure to
be SO, Brother Rainey.-Quitman
Free Press.
Our contemporary has been i'm
posed upon. The Randolph dele
gates are for Query and were Sc
lected because they were
known to be for him.
We know and have conversed
with some of these delegates and
have their word for it that when
Randolph is called in the couven-
ton the response will be two
votes for the young and brilliant
Query. Editor Perham has
struck a cold trail.

Presidents affianced, was getting her
trousseau in Paris, expressed their indig-

WHEREAS, Grover Cleveland is about
to be married to Miss frankie Folsom,
and both having been residents of this city
should be interested in its Industries
therefore,
ResoJUed, That the action of Miss
Folsom in buying her bridal outfit in
Europe be deprecated on the ground that
the work could be better done in Ameri-

ResoEred, That we use our best efforts

WHILE condemning the Polish race for
their action in the late labor troubles in
Chicago and Milwaukee, the fact is too
often lost sight of that no Drawer, truer
or more faithful members of the militia
were found, than the Kosciusko Guards,
of Milwaukee, commanded by Captain
Borchardt, himself Pole, and when the
their countrymen were found acting as
law-breakers, Captain Borchardt's men
did not hesitate to fire upon them and
shoot to kill, thus proving themselves
to be fully conscious of their duty as law
abiding citizens.

Cure for Piles.

PILES are frequently preceded by a
sense of weight in the back, loins and
lower part of the abdomen, causing
the patient to suppose he has some
affection of the kidneys or neighboring
organs. At times, symptoms of indi-
gestion are present, fatulency, uueasi-
ness of the stomach, etc. A moisture
like =. perspiration, producing very
disagreeable itching, after getting
warm, is common attendant. Blind,

The Whipping Post.

opposition to such a measure, and says:
'The American is proud of his man.
hood, he may commit an offence, but he
has the nerve and manhood to face it, and
with clinched teeth can bear the punish
even unto death; but spare him the morti-
tication of public lashing."
And pow listen to Bro. Hearsey, of the
New Orleans States, in answer to the above
paragraph:
I'm it's eloquent and doubtless sincere
effort to impress the people and the Leg
islature with the fact that it is opposed to
the whipping post it has managed to de-
liver itself Of some dwelling nonsense
The idea of thief having any manhood
is absurd. Such a thing is impossible. 1t
is manhood and self-respect which make a
man an honorable, useful and law-abid-
ing citizen, and the men who do not pos
sess these qualities are the thieves and
criminals who fill our jails to-day and are
fed for months at the expense OF the tax
payers and who steal again as soon as they
are released. In criticizing the absurd
argument Of the Watchman we do not wish
to be understood as fayoring or urging the
establishment Of the whipping post in
Louisiana, for we are free to admit that
many strong arguments can be offered
agaidst the passage Of such law, but at
the same time much can be said in IA
vor Of it,"

Your memorialists frankly state they are
not actuated by any hostile motives to
the City of Baton Rouge, and have no
word of disparagement to use against the
patriotic and public spirited citizens OF
that locality, who have done all that was
possible to make the Seminary at present
located there a success, but place their
petition on the ground of justice and
right, believing the central location and
superior advantages of the same will be
of greater benefit to the people of Louisl-
ana than it's present location at Baton
Rouge.
1t must be remembered that not only
Central but all North Louisiana are alike
interested in the restoration of this insti-
tuition. New Orleans is Of easy access to
South Louisiana, where there are educa-
tional advantages and facilities not en-
joyed by other sections of the State. The
great Tulane University is established
there, and is destined to take high rank
and become one of the first colleges of the
South. Let us In Central and North Lou
isiana have what properly belongs to us,
the Stata University, restored, so as to
give similar advantages to the rising gen
Grafton of this section that are enjoyed
by those living in Southern Louisiana.
Your memorialists pray for the speedy
restoration of this State institution, that
it be rebuilt on it's former site, and when
it arises from it's ashes the inscription
Erected by the generosity of the General
Government" THE Union-Esto Per-
petaa," that was originally carved on the
arch of it's doorway, be again inscribed
thereon, reminding us perpetually not
only of the generosity Of the Federal Gov
eminent but of the fidelity of Louiiiana
to her trust.

Day before yesterday, in the House of

read communication addressed to him
in the Clinton Watchmaa, signed "Opos-
sum Corncr,' containing certain ground
less statements about the State University,
which the Cdpitolian-Adrocate reproduced
with appropriate comments. Referring to
the communication in question, the homo
rable gentleman repudiated the unauthor-
lied use of his nane in this matter, SUBJ
stantially as follows:
"After the reading of the above, Mr..
Hunter addressed the House, and repudi-
ated the sentiments and purposes, both
wholly and totally, as contained in the
article, and said that while it was well
known that prior to the nominations of
the last State Convention he was an anti
administration man in State politics, when
he was elected as Representative he un-
derstocd it to be his duty to support pro-
per measures without regard to politics,
and he had done 50. He objected to the
use OF his name in his Representative ca
pacity as a vehicle for the writer to use
for the purpose OF making war upon the
Executive and the Institution. He said
that it was DO part of his intention to in

In thus expressing his sentiments, Co,

he has earned for honorability and manli
