To the People Of North Louisiana.

GREETiSG: There can be no do bt bu,
tina, now is tie propri,ions time for the people
OF this State. AM particularly Of the Northern
part, TO take some deciied action relative TO
securing immigration
IL needs no argument with all thinking
men to convince 'h-m Of the importance Of
getting more people 10 settle among US. The
principal poin' TO be dwell upon is the mac
hv'y OF our people and their seeming indif.
ference TO all public demonstrations looking
towards the ms:erisl development of the
State through the channel of immigration.
1t has teen said. the cause Of North
Louisiana being 70 far behind other sections,
is the people in this portion OF the State never
all take in the importance Of the situation o.,
the same time" portion Of them vii.
rally 10 cause and v hen they expend their
energies and have abont given up, then
another portion will "cnip in and give the
subject another sIigh, push forward.
This course if persisted in, can never be
productive of any good.
The proper way to do 10 for every one to
swake to the realization that something mus,
30 done. pushed by the activity Of other
States, the state Of Louisiana mus, no. remain
idle and ALLOW her interests to suffer.
10 the Presidents OF tho Police Juries,
Farmers Unions and all bodies polite would
say: Do not limit the number Of delegates
to the immigration Convention called nv the
Governor to Meet in New Orleans March 5,h
and delegates to the Convection called b,
the same executive to meet in Shreveport,
March 18th.
1t is useless TO check in any way the
of the people; let there DO a full
from each parish or town in
The State At both meetings. 1t will take
money, energy and brains, TO make a success
of the immigration project, and let US have
lair sample Of oil these necessary requisites
ia the shape Of delegates.
Yours truly,
f. l.. DREW,
Secretary "f the North Louisiana Immigra-
ion Association

LET Us WORK FOR THE TICKET.

From tie opening Of tie State
campaign we opposed the nomina-
,ion o! Gen. Nichols for the reason
that his past course encouraged dis
organization. A point that the Dem
ocratic party could not afford to
yiealh. Already we Lear Of inderen-
dent movements all over the State
with the excuse that 'the Democratic
party in convention ut Baton Rouge
not only admitted the right, but ell
dorsed the piincipl. by placing At
its head for Governor a man WHO
was known to be a supporter Of
Independent movements" The Mich

WASHINGTON LETTER.

Washington, D. c., Feb. 3, 1888.
Last Thursday was a field day in the
Senate. Ii had been announced that Senator
kenna o! West Virginia. would reply 20 the
recent tariff speech Of Senator Sherman The
galleries were crowded with hundreds who
were eager To hear the discussion o: the most
vital issue OF the time.
Senator kenna's defense Of tie Presidents
famons message wa. mastery aud convincing,
aud the DemoclatIc position ON The tariff was
set forth in fine style. while the alleged
arguments Of Senator Sher.nan were COM
pIrtely demolished.
Replying TO the Olio Srna,or's claim that
Treasury .urp!4s wa.l preferable 70 a
deficit, Mr.. Kenna cited the fact that fou,
.nccessive Serr iari-s Of tie Treasury-,~ ,
Republican nnd two De,noc, aic-and two
PrrsidrMs-Aruur aud Cleve,and--had
ay'eed in conforming a surplus revenue ard
IN demanding reduction of tsxaiion. This
argument was unanswerable.

There is nothing in Mr. Hears resolution

provide that Cong >.s shall nrec. on the 5,h
