Ouft Sut, 1909.
BY DANIEL II. LUCAS.
And shall we then forget these heroes? Never!
The Southern heart that boasts their MEM
cries not
Shall be itself descrvedly forgot.
While they in fame live on forever!
The sceptre like the ebbing tide, departs.
While like the grant cliff whose stable form
Hurts back the breakers, and resists the
storm,
Great deeds outwear all human arts!
And when some laggard age shall lack the
light
OF high achievement. or sublimer mood,
Heroic travail great fortitude.
Here shall example serve the right!
Praised be their overtures to Liberty.
Their courage, and their unbought sense of
wrong
Sublimely faithful, and in patience strong,
Their deeds remain our legacyi

or Nichols anl the Louisiana
State Board of canyassers in ref
ereuce to the returns OF The IND

publican candidate was Hamilton

turned were printed II. D. Cole

J and some Hamilton d. Coleman,
while upon the other hand Ben o.
B. c., and Benjamin {. Elliot
seem upon the face of the returns
to have been running. Technical
" there were six men running Tor
Congress, and technically also ben
c. Elliot had q plurality of 1000
votes. This would have given
the election to the Democrats.
But the board, composed OF Dem
ocrats, counted up all the Cole
mans and Elliots and found the
former elected by liza majority,
and accordingly have issued HIN
him his credentials. The grand
conspiracy is certainly not mate
rializing in Louisiana. Governor
Nichols represents the reform wing
Of the Louisiana Democracy, ant

III letter from president elect,

Iu a letter from president elect,
Harrison to 4 man in South Car
olinia is the following, which dim
" outlines his Southern policy;
when the surprise and dlsap-
noiutmcnt which some OF your
people have felt over the result
has passed away and they give
some calm thought TO the sltna'
ton, I think they will be as much
surprised as am that they should,
in thought or speech, impute 70
me unfricndl;ness towards the
South.
The policies in legislation adj
yise'l by the Republican party /
believe are wholesome for the
whole country, and if those who
in their hearts believe with us
upon these questions would act
with us some others question that
give you local concern would set
tic themselves.
Very truly yours,

The Assesorship.

Several inquiries of late have

about the appointment OF the as'

the editors of the GUARDIAN are
concerned VIC have to say, that
we are under no special obliga-

out before the public and declare
ourselves IN favor Of any man for
this office. Even it we were an
der such obligations, and were
bound to inform the public whom
we would endorse, the question
would not be settled, as the Cos

the man we recommend.

public have awaited this message
with more than ordinary anxiety,
since Cleveland was defeated. 1T
is an unusually long document,

Of tariff reform, and recommends
to congress, that something must

millions Of this yoke of bondage

about 5000 inhabitants of that

With a desire to see, teach and to

the best descriptive writer's of the

no one who has contributed so
much towards attracting the world
to the beauties, and advantages

The pledge act of 1874 is .
statute that occasionally works
great injustice to unsuspecting
creditors. Everybody is legally
presumed to know the law. But
this presumption ism many cases
at variance with fact. Not one
probably in twenty knows the ex-
istence Of the law above referred to
as very few creditors have availed
themselves of the advantage con-
fcrred by it. 1t has therefore new
err been brought fully tothe knowl..
edge of the public. The coDstitu-
tion provides that privileges shall
exist on movables without regis
tration. The act Of 1874 provides
that the furnisher Of necessary
supplies to make q crop can take
a written act of pledge from his
debtor that when recorded, will
take precedence of supply claim
unaided by similar act ofrecord.
The physician is given q privilege
on the crop of his debtor to the
amount of fifteen dollars, concur.
rent with the furnisher Of sup
plies. But il the latter should
have q record pledge on the crop
the doctor don't concur, but must
stand aside until the supply deb
is satisfied. The present state o
the laws on this subject is appar
entity contradictory. Either TIN
. act Of 1874 should be repealed Of
! all privileges on crops be required
to be recorded. AS this is mat
! ter Of practical Importance to
: number of people we have though
