Pat Mealey.

The killing of Hon. Pat Mealey,
Commissioner of Police of New Or
leans, early last Sunday morning, by
Louis Claire, will be matter Of pro-
found regret all over the State.
Mr.. Mealey was one of those lead
ing politicians in New Orleans who,
in this canvass, have been denominat-
ed ''The Big -Four" and great many
who differed with him in politics will
deeply regret his death, and condemn
the manner of his taking of.
Pat Mealey was a big hearted,
whole souled Irishman, who carried a
head full of the strongest, practical
good sense, which made him esteem
ed and respected alike for his moral
and intellectual qualities. Few that
have ever met him would fail to be
struck with his terse, epigramatic
style of expression upon any subject
of importance which engaged his at
tention, and very few who knew him
doubted his honesty and integrity of
purpose.
He was a warm friend of General
Nicholls-became such during the
war, and was alike true to his friend
ship for his old commander and to
his colors, down to the moment he
was deprived of his life.
1t is not for us to comment now, in
the heat of this fierce political can
vass, upon the manner of his death,
but all accounts concur in the fact
that he was unarmed, and hence not
likely to be the aggressor or seek a
conflict with such a man as his SLAYER,
who, while occupying position as a
guardian of the peace by appoint
ment of the Mayor of New Orleans,
was a rowdy and rough.

The Ruston Caligraph, Moucure
paper, says:
"All this talk about harmony in
the party ranks after the nomination,
no matter who is nominated, is the
veriest bosh. Gov. McEnery is the
man over whom this factional contest
arose. Did McEnery's past four
years of rule tone down any of the
intensity of factional hatred and pro-
mote party harmony? No one will
pretend to say it did. But one thing
it did do, it made the breach wider,
and every one sees it"

from the past, but they have not
aided to win the fight.
Nichols should be nominated on
the 10th instant, at Baton Rouge
He, and no other candidate, deserves
to have the laurels of victory to adorn
his brow, It will be sheer cowardice
to permit cries of party harmony in
favor of a "third man." or rank bull
doing, or sleight of hand trickery,
to drive the peoples choice out of
the contest. The people have said
that they want General Nichols for
Governor, and to Democratic dele
gates the voice of the people should
be as the voice of God.

No Third Man.
lake Charles Commercial.i

| Lake Charles Commercially
It is now said that Gov. McEnery
will withdraw from the contest, and
the suggestion is made that General
Nichols should abandon the field to
some third man as an available candi.
date. We have no faith in any such
clap-trap. The truth is: the partisans
of the Governor now propose to let
go, because they are actually forced
to let go. They still cherish a lurk-
ing hope, that, if, by such sharp
practical trick Gen. Nichols can be
taken ont of the way, they might per-
haps curry favor with the third man
that would be nominated. We have
no faith in anything having the ap-
pearance of patriotism, magnanimity,
disinterestedness, or any generous
impulse coming from that source
Such proposition is too insidions in
its nature to merit consideration !;
besides it comes too late. Desert the
hero and statesman; desert the chosen
leader, who abandoned profession,
home and Preside, to fight the peo-
pies fight; desert the man of indom-
liable resolution and frmness, who,
without money and without other sup.
port, but what he found in the candid
and honest hearts of his Democratic
friends; desert the man who offered
himself nobly and disinterestedly,
but cheerfully, to encounter what
seemed fearful odds, in order to beat
the Ring! Desert him in the hour of
his triumph-never. His political
adversaries and ours, would but de-
spise us, if we could be capable of
such treason. A third man, indeed |!
Who is he? Where was he all this
time, when this battle, by the people
and for the people was being fought ?
Let us have no third man.
No, let our own honor and SELF
respect, if not our gratitude and
admiration for our chosen leader,
teach us to be faithful to the last to
General Francis T. Nichols, as our
only choice for Governor.

The Way to Develop Oul
Resources.

The large immigration convention,
in session at Dallas, Texas, recently,
should suggest to our people some
ideas worthy of consideration. We
are as much interested in the ques-
ton of immigration as the people of
Texas, and it would be very we'll for
US to take steps to secure a growth
from this source.
No man can doubt that the right
sort of immigration would vastly
help our State. At least two-thirds
of our land is lying idle, and e. 1T
deal of the rest is not cultivated as
it should be, nor as it would be, if
our population demanded decrease
OF acreage per hand. Intensive
farming will never be practiced, to
any great extent, in very thinly
settled country, and no other kind
pays any great profit.
Besides this, we have other re-
sources that need developing, and
that need it beyond the capacity of
our working people. An influx of
capital without an influx of labor,
would not be available to any great
extent, and would not produce any
great, lasting benefit. An influx of
labor would cause a growth of capt.
tai, and it would be the capital of
our people, not that of non-residents
invested with us.
There is a small stream of immi-
grafton flowing to Louisiana, but if
the advantages of residence in this
State were known, it would be much
larger.
We want manufactures. Density
of population, more than anything
else, brings them. The value of land
can almost always be determined by
the density of its settlement. The
commercial prosperity of the State
would be enhanced, all interests
would be helped, and civilization
would be advanced in all it's avenues.
Louisiana could easily support a
much larger population than she now
has. With our population greatly
increased there would be no lack of
work for all. Our State would then
be less dense than any of the New
States.
We would like to see our State |
advertised, and we think that, with
the proper effort, rates could be made |
with railroads by which immigrants,
coming to louisiana, could be brought |
at trifing cost. Then many of our
people, who are now land poor, would |
be rich, and hundreds of millions of
dollars which are locked up in lands,
worthless now, on account of lack
Of people to cultivate them, would
be turned loose to find profitable in
Festment in the development OF our
mining and manufacturing resources.

Names are being sent in to Deadwood

received but few names in response to a
request appearing in our last issue for
pioneers in this locality to send in their
names and date of their arrival in the
Hills, which we regret very much. as We
know there are many old timers in this
vicinity, and it would be somewhat
gratifying to have Custer, the pioneer

Fairburn Literary.

We acknowledge the receipt Of copy
of the "Fairburn Literary" paper pub
lished under the auspices of the Fair
burn Literary society, for which we are
under obligations to our local CORE
spondent at that enterprising place. The
paper is replete with local news items of
the most interesting character, contains
an elaborate and we'll written leader,
and is in every respect highly creditable
to the society. From its newsy columns
we clip the following item Of interest to
Custer readers:
c. G. Lincoln, late railroad agent at
this place, has been transferred to Hay
Springs, Neb. He was succeeded by
Mrs Mahoney. We all regret the re-
moval of Mr.. Lincoln, as he is a very
agreeable and pleasant gentleman, and
made many friends while here.

Tin Talk.

4 Black Hills correspondent to the
1t. Paul Pioneer Press, writing from
Rapid under date of December 7th SAYS:
AS time goes on the prospect for ex-
tenSlve work in the tin mines brightens
The company controlling the property
first purchased by the Harney Peak Tin
company has extended the scope of
operations to ut least four of its promi-
nent mines, while on several others the
annual assessment work is in progress
But upon the four locations particularly
referred to the preparations are such as
| TO indicate an intention to push devel-
Opment to considerable lengths. They
| may be considered representative mines
| OF four distinct districts, differing some
what in character of ore, width of vein,
and size, and value of the tin crystals
contained. The development of four
such locations contemporaneouSlv indi-
| Gates an intention to show up at their
tue worth the tin deposits and set for
ever at rest all question or cavil as to
whether American markets may be
supplied with tin from the Black Hills
There is report generally circulated,
| though thus far traced to no substantial
| foundation, that the company is about
to purchase large tract of placer tin
ground, together with some valuable
water privileges. Should the deal be
consummated it will probably involve
the payment of a greater amount of
money than has yet besn passed in a
| Black Hills tin sale. At the present
time the company is buying no lode
claims, though it holds options on a
number As stated in the Pioneer Press
some days ago, there is another com
pany in the field, which at least proposes
much. Should it be found able to do all
it proposes, it may well be assumed that
the tin districts will very soon witness
scenes of great activity The company
referred to is that represented by Capt.
Cock of London. 1t comes TO the knowl.
edge of your correspondent that the
options secured in the interest of this
company represents far greater amount
of property than was believed by people
here when Capt. Cock was in the Hills
A local agent of the company has, ever
since the captains departure, been ad
ding to the list, and should the whole
number of claims bonded be taken a,
prices agreed upon, the transaction will
indeed be one of large proportions.

graders are establishing winter quarters
up in the ridge, where they will find
tunneling, deep cuts and heavy grading
sufficient to last them for several months.
1t will no doubt be April | before any
track will be laid yet it is certain that
not many months shall have elapsed ere
| the whistle of the locomotive will salute
the ears Of Hemingforders. 1t is more
than likely that the grading between
that point and Alliance will be done
soon. Fitzpatrick Bros, who now have
several hundred teams aud men at work
on the contract, are anxious to reach the
northwestern terminus of the survey,
and are pushing the work with all posi-
bic expedition.-Omaha Herald.
The recent discovery and gradual
development of extensive and apparent
ly unlimited coal fields in the Black
Hills have precipitated what promises
to be lively race between some of the
western railroads to see which can get
there first. Among the companies now
actively engaged in pushing lines in that
direction is the Burlington and Missouri,
which undoubtedly leads all others. In
reply to a question propounded to him
yesterday as to how much new road his
corporation has under construction
General Manager Holdrege said Zone
hundred and siXty-eight miles are now
under construction from Alliance to the
northwest, crossing the Fremont, Elk
horn d Missouri Valley railroad at
Crawford" "Have you forces at work
on the entire line?" Yes, sir. In the
past two weeks one thousand men have
been put at work, and more are daily
being secured and scattered all along
the line. We have secured the right of
way and are in possession of the line
northwest of Crawford, as well as be- |
tween Alliance and Crawford" 1t is |
the companys intention to do all the !
grading this winter if possible, and |
have everything ready to lay down the
iron and put up the bridges early next
spring.-Omaha Republican.

Gen. Steele Post.

The regular session of Gen. Steele
Post, q. A. r., held at the conrt house
in this place on Friday evening of last
week, was one of the most interesting
sessions ever held by that organization,
now entering upon the fourth year of its
existence. Upon this occasion the an
nual election of officers occurred, in
which much interest was manifested, and
which resulted in the election of the
following officers for the ensuing year
5. NJ. Booth, Commander.
A. =. Smith S. V. Commander.
+. ii. Flynn, j. V. Commander.
A. Johnson, Officer Of the Day.
j. Lunger, Chaplain.
S. Il. Shankland, Quartermaster.
j. c, Carr, Post Surgeon.
H. J. Stone, Officer of the Guard.
The occasion was rendered more in
teresting by the muster-in of two re-
cruits, f. McNey, Of Lame Johny, and
J. A. Brady, Of Bull Springs, and the
presence of the ladies of the Woman's
Relief Corps, who were granted the
privilege of witnessing the ceremonies
incident to the muster-in Of the recruits
named, or that portion of the same
which did not include the instructions
given recruits in the unwritten work Of
the organization.
The post has now a membership of
over forty in good standing, and will
enter the new year under the most
favorable auspices, with a fattering
prospect of continued growth and ell
larged prosperity.
