WHAT SHOULD BE DONE!!

The experience of years past, and
that the people of Latourche are now
passing through, is sufficiently ex-
pressive to cause the above inquiry
from every one.
How long are the people of Lafour-
che to be brought to face ruin and dis
aster, every winter. from the floods
that CONF down the Mississippi river ?
There will he no deminution of these
floods. AS the country is cleared and
drained the more terrible and swift
viii the mad waters rush to the Ocean.
Bayon Lafourche gradually contracts
towards the sea, by annual deposits,
o~bstlucting the outflow of water, and
there appears to be no remedy for this
perpetual trouble.
1t is natures own work in an effort
to close this stream as nature has
closed outlet after outlet from Cairo
down. These deposits attach them
selves to the solid earth so firmly that
the abrasion of the waters during a
full stream cannot remove them.
Were there a continual current all the
year round, the case might be differ
eat, bnt that current is wanting and
will ever be wanting when the river
is low.
The closing of Bayou Lafourche at
Donaldsonville either solidly or by
locks seems to be the only remedy to
i've this section of Louisiana from
annual disasters and ruin. The
amount of money and labor expended
on the $50 miles of levees on the banks
of Bayou Lafourche would in a short
time build a railroad on either side, BY
which all traffic could be done with
care, facility and convenience, and re-
-i.ve the inhabitants from these an
nual disasters.

GRAND VICTORY FOR THE
DEMOCR4CT IN ILLINOIS.

At the election in November,
1890, Gen. Palmer went before
the people of Illinois as ali open can
dldate for United States Senator. 1t
was understood that every Democrat
elected to The legislature should vote
for Gen. Palmer. TIE returns elected
10l Democrats. 100 Republicans, and
3 Farmers Alliance members.
The 101 Democrats stood solid on
every ballot for their candidate. The
Republicans voted for one man and
then another. sometimes for a Repub-
lican, again for a Farmers Alliance
man but it did no good.
Finally at the 154th Ballottw of the
alliance men. wearied and seeing their
inability to elect one Of their own
party voted for Palmer giving him a
majority of one. Then the Democracy
of Springfield went wild, shouted Hal
lelnjah, fred guns, and made merry
for the rest of the day.
This takes out of the Senate Evarts
of New York, Srooner. of Wisconsin,
and Farwell of Illinois, three Repub-
ilcans, who knew nothing but party
and party interests, and gives their
positions respectively to Hill, Villas
and Palmer, Democrats in whom there
are no guile, and who stand at the
head of their party, representative
men of their country.
