THE NATIONAL CONVENTION.

The Democratic National Conyen-
ton was opened at st. Louis last Mon-
day by chairman Barnum. Stephen
NJ. White of California was made tenn
porary chairman and Gen. Collins Of
Massachusetts permanent presiding Of
ficer. The only contest on organiza-
ton, and in fact the only one of the
convention, was over the chairman
ship Of the committee on platform.
Hon. Henry Watterson was elected
over Senator A. p. German by close
vote. President Cleveland was re
nominated by an absolutely unanim-
Gus vote, something unknown before
in National convention. Judge
Thurman, s'the old Roman" was
nominated. on the first ballot for Vice.
President over Gov. Gray of Indiana
and Gen. John G. Black. His nomina-
ton was made unanimous. The work
Of the convention was a mere formal
ratification OF the choice of the people
expressed in advance of the conyen-
ton for Cleveland and Thurman.

On ITS EAR.

The city of Ruston is on It's ear. A
short time ago Its enterprising business
men saw the need of compress to &C,
comodate their growing trade and they
proceeded to organize a stock company
and order press. Since doing so,
however, they have discovered that
they cannot get a rate from the rail-
road company favorable to Ruston and
they are in the SO hole" to use the
vernacular of the sporting fraternity.
The Boomer Compress Manufacturing
Company insist on delivering the press
and the Ruston merchants "don't
want no press" unless they can secure
rate ON an equal footing with Monroe
and Shreveport.
Hence Ruston is on its ear. If there
Is no other way out of her dilemma
she proposes TO build the press any
how, a railroad from Ruston to Column
bia to tap the Ouachita river and
squelch the Q. 4 G. Railroad system.
the village Of Shreveport and the ci.y
of Monroe.
God save us!
The Caligraph is naturally indignant
over the turn affairs have taken in this
connection, and possibly in part justly
80, but our contemporary is unjust and
far off the track in making this fling at
the Monroe and Shreveport compress
companies SO far as the Monroe COM
pany is concerned:
The Monroe and Shreveport COM
press companies may think they have
put up very nice little job on Rus,on,
but in the end we believe they will
find they are mistaken. To att ordi-
nary observer they are playing an in.
visible hand in this compress matter,
but to Ruston their hand Is very visi-
Die. The V. s. & p. Company, whose
hand they are pulling the chestnut out
of the fire with, will have pretty dear
experience, we imagine, before the
thing is over.
This Is calculated to prejudice the
minds Of the readers of the Caligraph
against the Monroe Compress Com
pany and damage the interests of this
city aud the TELEGRAPH takes hand
only for the purpose of protecting this

benefit to all crops and more than coun-
terbalanced the effect Of the low tenn
peratures.

crops looking well.

slight setback to crops, otherwise eve
rythipg looks favorable.

planted.

IN MENIOIeIAM.

An unesring providence has taken
from our modest the gentle, modest
and sunny spirit of Ellie Watson just
at that delicate period when girlhood
develops into an enminently Interest,"
ing stage of womanhood, just as she
had reached this point of life, death
unlocked the earthly tenement in
which her spirit was content to dwell
and gave that spirit back to God.
Therefore
Resoived-That We tender to her
grief stricken family our heart felt
sympathy, in this their sad bcreave-
mcnt.
Resolved-That while we mourn
her loss, we entertain the fond hope
that Miss Ellic's spirit is happier than
it could be with us.
ItCsolved-That her untime'y death
shall serve to warn us of the fraiIty of
human life and Of the Importance of
ever being ready to sever our Counec,
ton with earthly tics.
ResolyeG-That we will cndeavor to
BIO able to say in this atlilction and in
similar providentiai Affections: "rhy

interest and not from any desire or in
tention to take part against Rnston.
Inc TELEGRAPH has the kindliest
feeling tor Ruston and its people and
desires to see the town and its people
do well. 1t also desires for itself and
Monroe and its people a reciprocal good
will from Ruston and for that reason
we join issue with The Caligrapb. That
usually correct journal is mistaken in
charging the Monroe Compress Com
pony with having taken band in
putting up a job on Ruston and The
TELEGRAPH makes the statement au-
thoritatively. Rustou no doubt has
just ground Of grievance against the
railroad and the Shreveport press, but
as far as Monroe is concerned she is
virtually in the same boat with Rus
ton. It is true that Monroe has rate
on footing with the Shreveport press
but that is offset by Discrimination
IN hapdling cotton and in consequence
Monroe derives no benefit from its
rate. The fact is the Monroe press re-
ceived more cotton from Ruston during
its first years operation without any
rate than it received this year with a
rate.

The TELEGRAPH this week contains
the announcement of Hon. G. Newton
as a candidate tor the Democratic re-
nomination for Congress. Few con-
gressmen have made better record
than Mr.. Newton by one terms service
and we judge by the favorable mem
ton he Is receiving from the press Of
the district that his constituents re-
cognize the fact and endorse his course.
He is q painstaking, interchangeable
worker and has secured, in his quiet,
but effective way, much favorable and
beneficial legislation during the short
time he has been in Congress. His
seat will no doubt be contested by
several aspirants but they will find
1t no easy matter to dislodge him. His
home parish, Morehouse, has already
instructed for him and he has secured
a strong following in all portions Of
the district.

ion Bill introduced.

~NCcPOAiAAB Vi LLlG A'SN ~
ion Bill Introduced.
PARIS, Oct. 15.-The chamber of deputies
re-aSsembled to-day.
Gen. Boulanger was present at the open
ing of the session.
NJ Flcquet, prime minister, introduced
bill providing for a revision Of the co"stitu-
ton. The Introduction of the bill ~as
greeted with applause by the members of
the left.
When Gen. Boulangcr entered perfect
quiet prevailed. There was no demonstra-
tlon either within or without the building.
Nj. Floquet, in his speech introducing tho
bill for the revision of the constitution, eX-
pressed a belief that the nation desired that
the constitution be revised The republic,
lie said, would remain. Its existence was
beyond discussion since il was the issue of
universal suffrage. Monarchsm excluded
any system of government elected by
Suffrage Protests from the right.l
OBJECT OF REVISION.
NJ. Floquet declared that it was not pro
posed by revising the constitution to do
stroy republican institutions, but to inn
prove them. The revision was rather
aimed against royalist plots and plots for
the creation of n dictator. NJ. Floquet
added that the bill proposed to grant the
ministers a legal period during which they
would thus be less preoccupied with the
votes Of the chambers. At the same time
the chambers would always possess the
right to impeach the ministers. In conclu-
sion he said he was convinced that an agree
mont would be obtained for the proposals
from republicans of every shade He
moved that the bill be referred to COM
mittee.
URGENCY DEMANDED.
M Andrieux demanded urgency, and
moved shat the bill be referred to a special
committee.
M. Ribot denounced the proposals.
M Floquet insisted that the question be
referred to an existing committee. He said
he would regard the result of a vote as
question of confidence in the ministry.
M. Delas in the name of the moderates,
declared that from motives of patriotism
they would support the government
M. Floquet's motion was passed by vote
of 307 TO 1871
