Anotltar aroundless Rumor tnst
Gentralia Had aecur id this
New Rallrcad,


The following paragraph was
clipped from the st. Louis Repnb-
licaa Of to-day
The road from Hannibal To
Springfield, Mo-, viii be built, il
tho declarations Of the officers of
the company amount to anything.
On Saturday Mr.. Joseph Eathrop,
secretary and treasury; Mr.. Roland
G. Nickerson, president, Mr.. Enoch
II. Fudge and Mr.. Massey of
Springfield were in the city and an
nounced in positive terms that the
road would be built. They de-
elared that they expected to have il
completed to the Missouri river by
January |, 1889. A proposition to
run trains over the Wabash West
ern branch, Centralia to Columbia,
twenty-five miles, was laid before
the Wabash Western authorities
and was ~favorably received. The
cost of such rental would be the
only question between the two
roads.
Enoch H. Fudge, one of the di-
rectors of the new road, is in the
city and will remain here several
days on business. He was seen al
the Ringo Hotel this afternoon and
questioned as to the truth of the
above paragraph. He said:
know absolutely nothing
about it. We were in St. Louis
but not on business relating in any
way to the Columbia branch. Our
chief engineer, Williams, is here
with me and will start out IN the
direct survey from here to Column
bia. We have not bought the
Columbia branch or made any ar.
rangements for the use of it."
It appears as if there is now lit.
tie doubt ofthe road coming here.
Fudge smiled when told Of
the report that the enter.
prise had fallen through be.
cause Of the reported purchase o.
the M K. ct. by the Burlington.
"Why," he said, "the NJ, K. &
T. is just entering upon a lease of
hundred years"
COLUMBIA LEFT OUT.

IN TROUBLOU5 TIMES.
Permission Granted Southern Men to
Bear Firearms

Bear Fire-Ar
From the Albany (Gd.) NetUs and Advertiser.
At the surrender Of the confederate forces
in April, 1865, this country was quickly
possessed by the union army. and the dis
armament of the south was pursued with
persistent purpose. Every home was
searched and all arms fell under the general
order of conhscation.
There never has existed Just such a state
of suppressed excitement and momentary
dread Of rioting. Stout hearts, that could
have met death on an honorable field of
battle with a smile, were appalled, before
the appre ensions excited by the helpless
ness of their families if incendiary work of
designing men ihould excite the
blacks TO insurr ction against the
whites. Many negroes believed thai
liberty meant license, and a realization
of the perilous position of the few
whites in this section banded them together
as strongly in purpose of mutual protec-
ton as did the instruction of the Sepoys of
India cement the Europeans. In these
troublous times, thanks TO the conservatism
of the union officers and soldiers stationed
at Albany, and the kindly disposition and
tractable nature of the colored people, the
lowering clouds passed over without the
threatened storm being preciPitated:; .
hb uISb BiSdb law VI sell
preservation was what everybody was pre-
pared to act upon in case of emergency, but
the question of the means Of defense was a
very serious one. Sporadic cases of out
rage were bruited about, and the interposi-
ton of federal power was more than once
solicited by unprotected women. Be it said
to the eternal credit of the officers CON-
manding this post, there was never an
appeal TO them, but the @gis of their
authority spread its protection over the
helpless In the extremity Of their appre-
tensions, our people began to apply for
permission to retain some OF their arms, and
authority was given by the commandments
OF districts for such permission to be granted
to proper persons to retain and bear sport
ing arms" 1t is rather amusing to see now
what class of firearms was included under
the head of sporting arms.
Capt. Y. G. Rust, who was fishing among
his old papers, the other day, came upon a
written permission, under which he secured
the use Of two Colts revolvers. The official
document is as follows:
No. 1855.

The Distribution of the Ticket.

One Of the happy results apparent al
Baton Rouge, following the formation OF
q single ticket TO representa- united De-
mocracy, is the distribution Of the nOmi-
nees, 30 that no important section OF the
State can be said to be without special
consideration upon 1t. Next to the Sc
lection Of good ticket, this is always q
feature Of strength.
1t is true that Gen. Nichols is accredi-
ted to Orleans, from whence also comes
W. H. Rodgers, the candidate for Attor-
ney General, and yet the Democrats Of
Assumption will feel that in the candi-
date for Governor they have prior claim
and it does not seem as il Orleans has got
the lions share after all. The Red River
section gets James Jeffries, for Lieutenant
Governor, and no doubt feels compliment
ted by the mainland the honor conferred.
The up river parishes furnish l.. +. Mason
of COncOrdis, for Secretary Of State; and
the Florida pari shes Of the East are to
have W. H. Pipes, Of East Feliciana, for
State Treasurer. North Louisiana holds
on TO the efficient Auditor 0. B. Steele, of
Union; and South louisiana contributes
the Superintendent of Public Education,
JOS. A. BreauX.
II Is seen at glance that the distribu-
ton OF the ticket il admirable, that it
leaves no room for serious criticism from
any quarter; the candidates meet every
popular requirement, and that the Re-
publican hope for prOfiting by Demo-
cratic discussions which was 80 Ostenta-
tiOusly paraded few days ago, must now
be abandoned without any prospect Of
its naturalization.
