The Shreveport Times trade edition
of the 10Th, is an interesting paper
containing sixteen pages, large por-
ton of which is filed with interesting
descriptions of the parishes and towns
along the ", S. & P. railroad and
the T. P. railroad. Also some towns
off the railroads. Notices of schools,
churches and so on. Our neighbor
does not venture farther east than
Monroe. If he had come on 81 miles
east he would have found a lively
little town, that will in the near fu-
ture be classed with the important
towns.

The assessment roll for the year
1889 has been completed, and shows
an increase over the assessment of last
year of considerably over a hundred
thousand dollars. The assessment of
the town of Oak Ridge has been in
creased between ten and fifteen thous-
and dollars, and that of the town of
Bastrop about twenty-five thousand
dollars. If the supplemental roll of
1888 be not taken into account the
apparent increase would be greater
still.-Clarion.

Railroad companies should either
put up cattle guards at each culvert
or floor them SO that stock running
on these places would not get fastened
and killed. Some time ago they ran
two calves into a culvert east of here.
One fell through while the other was
mangled and dragged over the culyert.
While it may be impossible for the
employees to check the train in time
to save stock It is not impossible for
the railroads to have their culverts
arranged so as to prevent the destruc'
ton Of stock.

York Tribune, in chorus with other
Republican journals and leaders, "then
you intend to carry the elections in
such States and districts by intimida
ton and violence" Well suppose for
the sake of the argument We grant
that We do; then what do those jour
nails and leaders think of the fitness
Of race for participating in Ameri-
can politics which, numbering from
three, and ten, to one Of the opposing
race, throws up its hands, abdicates
its powers and surrenders its rights
to a paltry minority? Or again, to
put the question in another way:
What do these Republican journals
and leaders, who charge that the
Democrats are carrying these elections
by intimidation and violence, think
of political system, created by their
party, which forces their white fellow
citizens of the South to violate the
laws, as the only means, as the only
earthly hope, of maintaining Chris
tan civilization, aye, as the only
means of preventing organized society
from being overwhelmed and disin-
tegrated by a food of ignorance,
superstition and semi barbarism?
We only throw out these questions
to our Republican contemporaries and
the leaders OF that party, as suggestions.
II docs not concern rs much, 7rhaf
anS,sers, il any, they may make
thereto; but nc knox perfectly uell
.xhat, situated as Meir 1vAitc fcIlo.o-
citizens are m mary localities, in tic
South they ,ooul9 do. SO situated,
the negroes ,coHAa votc zclth them
inst as they no.v z'o'e 7vith rs.
And now. let us repeat right here,
what we have said before. The ne
groes, where they are in the majority,
will, in nineteen cases out of twenty,
vote almost solidly with the white
Democrats. 1t is plain, therefore, that
we advocate the abrogation Of the
Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amend
ments, not in the interest of a solid
Democratic South, and not because
We entertain the least apprehension Of
negro supremacy.
Neither, as must be quite obvious,
do we advocate this measure with any
idea that it will increase the strength
of the South in Congress, since It's
contamination must necessarily lead
to a reduction of the South's repre-
sentation in the House.
We advocate this step in behalf Of
higher, broader and more Independent
politics in the South; because of the
social as well as political demoraliza
ton which the participation of the
negro race in our elections threatens
10 bring about here, and has already
begun; and finally, from a humane
and kindly standpoint, in behalf o
the best interest of the negroes them
selves, whose real welfare and happi
ness, like all other Southern men, W.
are anxious to advance.
