Congressman-E Elect Price.

The State has added a new and strong
bulwark of defense against the agrees
sions which the selfish and sectional
policy Of the Republicans is directing
against her industries. Under the
banner of "Protection on Principle
that ~self-styled national party had
singled out the sugar and rice of Lou
isiana as Il sacrifice that would per-
nit not only of the retention of the
protective duties of Northern pro-
auctions, but in many instances their
increase.
The facts were plain. No ingenuity
or construction, or alluring promise
of better consideration in the future
could mislead the people and the vo-
tiers entered their peaceful but EN-
phatic protest against such unfair dis
elimination and sectional policy.
The Democrats rallied with unexam-
pied enthusiasm and unanimity to the
support Of the champion of home pro-
lection; while the Republicans in
large number-white and black
joined their old opponents in the vi
tai struggle, or abstained from votieg
at all.
Thus have these important interests,
and the general welfare Of the State
as we'll, gained a devoted and able
defender; for the Congress Of III.
United States will find in Mr.. Price {
man of broad views, deep rooted in
dependence of character, of great men
tai and physical vigor, and one tina
grows to the highest standard of re
quirements in any cause that he ma,
lie embarked in.

Minors manager, P. o. Rousseau,
shook the dust Of Lafourche from his
feet on last Wednesday, and departed
for the Crescent City, fully convinced
Of the fact that he can not smanagen
worth a cent the good people Of La
fOurche for a Minor. He was accom-
panied by his aide-de-camp, Mr.. John
Celestin, IL latter-day convert to the
Republican faith, who joined the
fold in the spring election of 1888 with
the hope Of securing the clerkship of
this parish as a kind of salve for the
sacrifice he was making.
And because this singular pair con
not manage and control the Republic

too, forsooth-they lift up their hands
in holy horror and cry out ''fraud and

A pretty set, indeed, to talk fraud
and intimidation, when they, them
selves, have ever been imposing on
the ignorant dark.es composing the

they have both but recently become
converts.

How . Young Womsn's Poodle Was L.
bslsd By = Wicked Man.
Once on q time there was at one of the
Bar Harbor hotels q young woman from
New York who was, 10 speak within bounds,
Q mass of afectations She had more airs
than q hand-organ, and, says the Boston
Courier. they were Of the same artificial
character. She was the laughing stock of
tho guests at tho house, and there were
numberless Jokes 1t her expense which she
had not apparently the wit TO appreciate.
Miss X. had . poodle on which she lavished
the choicest treasures OF her affections.
The creature had its own especial maid. and
was taken out 10 ride In stats every morn,
Ing with % much tenderness as II Il had
becn child. One day Miss X. came down
70 the dining-room for dinner In state Of
much agitation. She announced that dear
Flossy's maid was I'll, and she really had no
one TO stay with the sweet creature whils
she came 10 dinner. 6he could
scarcely eat, she was 90 fearful Of
the blight which might be cast upon
the poodle's tender sensibilities by the
loneliness 10 which she was condemned for
half an hour. There was at the table Bos.
tonian who from the bottom Of his soul
loathed Miss x, her poodle and her affecta-
tons. He rose, as she continued her plant,
and went out quickly, aud his friends sup
posed that he could not endure her twaddls.
But as matter Of fact he went intent upon
wicked thoughts. He knew where In the
stables was o litter of blind, rough-coated.
mongrel pups, the children OF the most
plebeian Of ours. He hurriedly robbed the
dirty little mother Of the whelps, bribed a
chambermaid, and when Miss X. hurried
up from her dinner 10 console Miss Flossy
for her absence she found her pet surround
cd by litter Of the most disreputable pups
that the eye Of man ever lighted upon. Miss
x. was not clever enough 10 conceal what
she supposed 70 be the shame OF her beloved
poodle, but shrieked and wept and made
generally the most tremendous fuss. As
the Bostonian had let few OF his friends
into the secret, IL soon got about, and the
amount OF jestng and chatting that fell 70
the lot Of Miss x. was immeasurable She
soon discovered the truth Of the matter, and
her indignation knew no bounds. She en-.
dured for acouple Of days the mock. earnest
inquiries after the health OF her dog ana
her dogs family, but ut the end Of that
time she silently gathered her belongings
together and took herself away. She
could endure IL no longer, and Flossy, the
injured, passed with her mistress out Of
the life at Bar Harbor as completely a. II
the pair had never existed.

Story OF an American Circus Elephant
Famous for His Mad Fits
Many interesting and famous elephants
have been favorites Of tho American pub
lilo long before the late Jumbo's success
full debut, says writer In Chambers Jour
nal. One Of these, known as Canada, was
desperate character. When in one Of his
tantrums she did as much mischief as tor
nado," to use the American showman's
words-tossing hacks into the nir and tear
ing down signs and lamp-posts. He was
sent with the rest Of the menagerie to 0
farm, and when there had one Of bis mad
fits. Rushing into the stable-yard, in few
minutes he killed two buffalos, q sacred cow,
acouple Of elks, several horses and camel.
He would seize an animal, toss it In the air,
catch 1t on its tusks, and then either jam or
trample the life out Of It. He then sailed
out for town, and the popular excitement
can be imagined. A trap was set with
long ponderous chain with an enormous
cornerstone at its end to entangle the ami
mails legs and hold him. A man then ran
out In sight OF Canada, and the elephant in
stantly rushed after hin. Tho trap was
successful as far as making the chain
and stone fast to him, but he kept
right on, and would have caught the man.
who was fast runner, had not the latter
jumped down into an unfinished cellar
Of q new house and ran up narrow flight
of steps on the opposite side. The elephant
jumped down after him as easily as dog
would, with the big stone gathering after
him. Fortunately, tie stone was large
enough TO stick, wedged against the walls
on each side Of the stairway, and Canada
was fast, but 1t was close shave for the
man. They managed to secure the savage
animal with more chains, and then went to
work TO conquer him. AS the account
graphically describes 1t, ''they wore out big
clubs on him, fired loads OF buckshot into
his trunk and ears, and beat and tortured
him for hours until he howled IN token oi
surrender" The moment he was loose,
however, he gave yell Of rage, dashed out
Of the cellar and started TO kill Every one
few for his life, but he was tired and took
up his position under cover OF three hay.
stacks, hunting all who ventpred near him.
Buckshot fred into his head only checked
his wild rushes, and whenever he thought
people were on the other side Of the stack
from him he tried his best 10 topple the hay
over on them. The fight went on for three
days and nights, during which time he had
not bite to eat-for he was too angry even
TO take any Of tbs hay arouni bim-and not
drop Of water. AT length, despairing Of
saving hin, tue shotguns were exchanged
for heavy rides, and several big bullets IT
