THE ELECTION.
Cleveland and Thurman are
Probably Defeated.

The latest returns from all quar-
ters give Harrison and Morton
a majority, with the result yet to
be determined in Illinois. AS goes
Illinois, so goes the election, and
we shall not give up the prospect
of Democratic President until
the official returns are in from that
State. The loss of the great State
of New York was defeat that was
altogether unexpected in Demoo-
cratic circles, and falls like thun-
derbolt on our hopes. This result
has been brought about by the
money power of the bankers, rail-
roads and corporations of speculat-
ing trusts domiciled in that State,
which have in every instance op-
posed Clevelands measures of ma
tional policy.
The election in Grant parish was
quiet and tame affair, only about
one-half of our voters coming out
to the polls. The total result was
5S4 votes cast for Cleveland cleo
tors, and 95 for Harrison electors
We will give the official vote of the
parish tabulated by wards next

The Weekly Louisiana Review.
Hon. Leon Jastremski announces
that at an early date he will begin
the publication in New Orleans of
an eight-page weekly paper, espec-
tally devoted to Louisiana. twill
contain every week a thorough con-
densation of all interesting news
items appearing in the various 10
cal papers Throughout the State.
This feature alone must necessarily
prove an important factor in at
tracing the attention of people
abroad to the superior inducements
that Louisiana presents to the
thrifty immigrant and the enter
prising capitalist, and materially
contribute in keeping our own peo-
pie constantly informed of the
march of progress in every locality.
For the benefit of the large num-
ber of country readers the paper
will strive to have, accurate market
reports will be furnished, also
summary of city news. With the
view of securing a large circulation,
and thereby making the Review an
advantageous advertising medium,
the subscription has been fixed al
the moderate price of 81 30 pei
annum. Believing that the work
be has undertaken will contribute
to the progress Of the State, he re.
spectfully solicits from his friends
everywhere and from the public IN
general a liberal share of supporf
and encouragement.

of all the goods you have on board

The merchants were glad to get
off SO easily and readily gave the
pirates half. In course of time the
surrender of half the cargo (or the
money equivalent of half the car
go), came to be looked upon as q
regular tax, and merchants made
their calculations accordingly. OF
course they had to buy their goods
cheaper and sell them dearer to
make up the so per cent that Tarik
seized for his share. It came to
be called the Tarik or Tarif tax
and this is the origin of the word
s'tariff." The governmentsnow take
the place of the pirate chief, and
custom-houses take the place of the
strait of Gibralter; only instead Of
seizing the so per cent of all that
comes in the average rate in the

Rev. E. M. Tabor, colporteur for
the American Bible Society, has
lately been assigned to the terrific
ry of Grant parish for the distri-
button of Bibles and Testaments.
To those unable to pay the small
price asked for q Bible, one will be
given free of charge. The society
that Mr.. Tabor represents is ma
tional in its character, and is sup
ported by the Methodists, Baptists,
Presbyterians, Episcopalians, and
three other Protestant denomina-
tions of the United States. He
proposes to visit every family in
Grant parish, and either sell or
give to each one a copy Of the Bi-
Die, and we feel sure he will be
treated well by our people while
engaged in this noble work.

The Tariff.
The Tariff.
Where It First Got Its Name and Fame
from Pirate Chieftain.

from . Pirate Chiefsain.
More than 1000 years ago there
lived in northern Africa and south
ern Spain a warlike Moorish chief
tain named Taric, or Tarik or Tariff,
as the name is variously spelled.
It is from this half savage chiefs
name that we get the modern idea
of ''tariff," which is just now troub-
ling this country SO mnch.
Tarik gave his name to the town
of Tariffa and also to the cliff OF
Gibraltar. "Gibraltar" is cor
ruption of "Gebal- -Tarik," or Hill
of Tarik." These places were in
reality the first custom-houses,
where the first "tariff' was collected.
We regret to say that Tarik was
a pirate. The free traders declare
that the system to which he gave
his name is still nothing but legal
lied, modernized piracy, but that
we need not discuss yet.
This was Tarik's little scheme:
He cruised about just inside the
straits of Gibraltar, 'laying for
the merchant ships that had to pass
through that narrow channel, and
ready to pounce upon them when
ever they came in sight.
At first, after stripping every
captured vessel of its valuables
Tarik made the crew walk the plank
and then burned OF scuttled the
vessel like any common pirate.
| But soon he found that this die
not pay. 1t was putting prohibi
tory tariff onthe commerce through
the strait, and his revenues fell of
to almost nothing. He was killing
the goose that laid the golden egg
| But Tarik was man of originalit.
and resource. He saw that he hat
overdone the matter, and resolved
not to destroy entirely such mer
chant ships as might thereafte
come that way.
i After that, whenever merchan
ship ventured through the strait

turing the vessel, said to the car

ALEXANDRIA
COMPRESS AND WAREHOUSE
COMPANY.

The undersigned Respectfully Calls 10
the attention of the producers and
buyers of cotton, tho superior facili-
ties offered by this company for the
storage aud handling of cotton, which
are as follows:
A large, commodious aud finely con-
structed compress building, connected
with covered yards, all constructed and
arranged in such manner as TO secure
the greatest degree of safety possible,
thereby enabling the company to obtain
the lowest rates of insurance.
Large cisterns, and an elevated tank
constantly kept full of water, supplied
from well by means of steam pumps,
and fully supply of hose enabling
them to reach every part of their prop
erty in case of fire.
Competent and reliable watchmen
are in charge at all hours of both day
and night.
The advantages of transportation to
and from the compress and warehouse
will be readily appreciated when the
fact is known that the tracks of both
the Texas and Pacific and the South
ern Pacific pass in close proximity to
their platforms, and that the Red River
tnd Coast Line Packets have made AL
exandria one of their terminal points,
having established large and commo-
dious wharves and warehouses just
above the limits of the City Of Alex
andria; said wharves, warehouse and
landings being connected with the
tracks of the Il. g. p. r. Il. thereby
avoiding entirely the necessity of dray-
age to and from the steamboat landing
and the compress and warehouse.
The charges for storage, handling
and compressing of cotton by this COM
pany, will be as reasonable as those OF
the most favored markets of the coun-
try.
The desire and intention of the gen
tleman connected with the above en-
terprise is to make the City of Alex
dria such a market for cotton as her
geographical location and her most IA
yorable facilities, such as are offered
by the River and Railways above men
: toned, entitle her to enjoy.
} To this end bank to be known as
, the Rapides Bank of Alexandria has
been organized, with sufficient capl'
tai already subscribed, will commence
operations on September 1st, next
This bank will be prepared to make
, liberal advances on all cotton stored
with the above named Compress ant
: Warehouse Company. 1t will more
! over furnish unsurpassed facilities fo
the accommodation of Buyers Of Cot
j ton either for Domestic Spinners or TO
5 foreign account. The gentlemen con
nected with the Bank are all well
+ known citizens of Rapides Parish an
of the City of New Orleas. at tn
proper time the official announcemen
of their officers and organization vii
be made public. 1t is u well-knowl
fact that planters and merchants VIII
tried both the New Orleans and Alex

from 81 so to 80 90 more per bale o

market.
