PRESIDENT CLEVELAND has come
out squarely for a reduction of the war
tariff by this Congress. He has been
talking to Protection Democrats on
this important subject, and it is
thought will influence many of them to
vote for the Morrison Bill. In this
matter the President clearly represents
a vast majority of his party. 1t is high
time the Democrats pass a bill, and if
ths Republican Senate kills it, then a
square issue car be made before the
people. In such an issue Michigan,
Wisconsin and possibly Illinois will 20
Democratic.

MULE RAISING.

We are impressed that mule raising
with US in this parish is one of the
most profitable enterprises in which
we could engage, in the way of stock
raising, that we give below an article
on the subject from the Texas Live
Stock Journal;
Gin all the branches of live stock
raising in Texas, nothing .has resulted
more satisfactory than the production
of mules. The most easily sold pre-.
duction at any age is the mule, the
weaving, yearling, two-year-old, the
work mule, all sell readily at living
figures. In mule raising, the revenue
is derived safely and surely, If the
ranchman or farmer, does actually
raise the mules, which he can do if he
attends to business. A weaving mule
is worth $25 to $35, so is three-year,
old beef steer, according to where he is
raised aud his condition.
GA COW is worth $l5 to 500. A
Texas common mare, is worth from
SIG to $25.
"With good jack and one hundred
mares, to raise rs mule colts, TO be sold
as yearlings at s95, would furnish
$2625 for profit and expenses.
"The little Spanish mule, produced
by common stock on both sides, always
paid to raise, while bringing one-third
the price of the improved stock; but
the Tennessee and Kentucky jacks
have now 80 many fine colts that Texas
has gone into the higher branch, and
is raising mule "as is mule" to
bring from two to three hundred and
fifty dollars span.
CAT Fort Worth, and in this vicinity
there are for sale, several thousand
young unbroke mules and grown
mules fit for work; there is variety
in size and built and color, but show
ing vast improvement over the best
stock OF three years ago. These mules
are produced cheaply, until being pres
pared for market they have known no
other food than grass, good two to five
dollar an acre mesquite grass; their
sires. In nearly every case imported,
their dams Texas mares, combination
hard to beat In the production OF
mule"

The "man about town" of the
Natchez, Banner tells the following
little joke. The conclusion to be
reached is that it's not always safe to
to bet on the sincerity of he who crows
the loudest for Punishment of the
"fiery liquid";
"The boys tell of a funny incident
which occurred in front of one of our
leading churches the other Sunday. A
prominent citizens was expressing his
satisfaction over the closing of the
saloons on the Lords day, when in his
excitement he backed up against a
brick wall and broke half-pint bottle
in his coat tail pocket. The fiery
liquid flowed freely, and the p. c.'s
face assumed sadly bored expression
as he hurried away from the scene of
the disaster.

Perhaps some of our readers would
like to know what 1t costs to advertise
in big metropolitan daily papers. For
their delectation we will give them
some figures. A yearly single column
advertisement In the Chicago Tribune
for one year costs the advertiser s29, 900.
The lowest price column in the New
York Herald costs $50, 200 year and
high priced one realizes the startling
amount of 1884 1000. These figures are
correct though they may seem incre-
dible.
