Lafourche parish. Journalists from
all parts of the State-from the editors
of the big New Orleans dailies to the
occasional contributor IF the small
rural .weeklios-will be on hand.
They will be there to write with facile
pen the advantages of Thibodaux and
Lafourche parish, aud the result will
be that that town and parish will be
splendidly advertised and the eyes of
the whole State will be turned toward
the fertile sugar belt of the Lafourche.
That Thibodaux will royalty enter

without saying. Her hospitality will

Assumption, in asking Lafourchc for
the loan of the Press Association for
one day, will guarantee to return it
promptly and in good order.

CONCLUSION.

The peaceful agencies of commerce are more fully revealing the necessary unity of tercourse of our people is promoting mutual respect. We shall find unalloyed pleasure in the revelation which our next census will make of the swift development of the great resources of some of the States. Each State will bring its generous contribution to the great aggregate of the nations increase. And, when the harvest from the fields, the cattle from the hills and ores of the earth shall have been weighed, counted and val ued, we will turn from them all to crown with the highest honor, the State that has most promoted education, virtue, justice and patriotism among the people.
