Came IL Plentiful.

Since October l the hunter has been at
liberty TO roam through the RHODE
ISLAND woods after game. This year he
seems 10 be able to find great deal, and
in certain sections OF the State il is re-
ported as being plentiful. Partridges,
quais and rabbits are to be found in
Scituate and in the eastern part of the
State in the vicinity of Warren. Sports
men in that region saw that game is more
abundant than usual Woodcock are
scarce. Foxes and raccoons are unusual
ly plentiful, especially in Western RHODE
ISLAND and Eastern Connecticut. Thanks
to the Fish and Game Protective Union,
game has been preserved and there is now
some object in hunting. The union is To
apply TO the General Assembly for better
legislation Co protect game and fish.

The FINANCIAL NEWS.

money into corporations which are oper-
ated on RHODE ISLAND soil VIII nave
taken great interest in the announce

Like recent issues OF the stock OF the
American Wringer Company ana the

pany. this company has among its uirec,
tors men well-known for years IN iocai
financial circles, and men whose large in-

continuance Of those same rlgid business
methods that have made the indivlduai
COMPANIES themselves successtul, mas
much as each year shows how depenueno
upon such methods the success oil pusi-
ness Is. this fact should nave srea'
weight with investors.
But aside from the personal and local
element in the investment now o1ered,
and aside from the advantages whlch
must arise from the combination OF cap
ital and the resulting facilities Tor dong
business at a decreasing cost, tnere are
excellent safeguards in the bylaws Tor
the investor. The chief objection TO en-
tering into large corporations Is the fact
that the holdings of the individual are SO
small portion of the total out
standing stock that his voting
power seems totally inadequate to
the amount of money he invests. But
in this company the preferred stockhold'
err has first claim on all the property in
case OF liquidation. A three-fourth vote
of all the stockholders is required &c
change the bylaws. The company ha'
no bonded or mortgage debt and cannon
create one except by u like vote. If the
earnings i'm the future are as good as those
in the past this stock should be gilt
edged investment.

In the reorganization of the
State Union at Monroe last week,
the Peoples party agitators scored
an empty victory by gobbling all
the offices and ignoring the sensl-
bic, level-headed men of the order.
They tried to commit the union to
the Third party heresy, but COM
mon sense revolted at the idea, and
the members were left free in po-
litical action(?) In view of the
fact that the constitution guaran-
tees each member this right, this
was truly magnanimous act on
the part of the Third party strik-
ers and agitators!

ANNOUNCEMENT.
Awake, We Sleepers!

In these days of drowsy dron-
ing it is hard for our people to
awake to the fact that Central Lou
isiana is on a full grown boom.
During our trip to Alexandria last
week we learned that no less than a
dozen trains lumber through that
city every twenty-four hours, COM
ing from the four points of the
compass, and the freight and pas
senger traffic taken all together is
something enormous. No less than
four new manufacturing enterpris-
es are under way, while scores of
mercantile buildings and residen-
ces are going up on all sides. The
claim is made that Alexandria will
double her population in the next
two years, and we verify believe
that the claim is based OH a solid
foundation. All improvements are
ON the substantial order, and give
evidence of the confidence the peo-
pie have in the future of their city.
DO the people of Grant parish
read the signs of the times? The
rumble of the iron horse is heard
across our entire eastern border,
while another great commercial
feeder is within a stones throw on
the west, and still another is to be
built right through the center of
the parish. Add to this the two
navigable rivers on our eastern
and western limits, and Grant par
ish can boast of outlets and COM
mercial facilities enjoyed by few
localities. Now is the time for our
people to place themselves in line
with the progress and improvement
that is marking communities in
other sections, and by SO doing
reap the benefit that always follows
intelligent endeavor. Already
few individuals are moving, but we
wish to incite universal activity
along this line. Let our people
take more earnest and lively in-
interest in community affairs. Let
them talk of their advantages and
resources. Let them write to the
CHRONICLE about anything and
everything the people are interest
ed in, and we guarantee to do our
part In letting the world hear about
our parish.

IdiOcy or Knavery.
mo. Daily Statee.l

The Shreveport Times has an
elaborate article headed whats
the Matter with the Farmers?" in
which it wisely advises the victims
of high tariff and other class legis-
lation to look to the Democratic
party for relief. 1t is indeed re-
markable that any considerable
body of men, outside of an insane
asylum, should, in the hope of re-
lieving the burthens from which
the consumers of this country suf-
fer, should turn from the Demo-
cratic party to the miserable ex-
crescence of the Democratic and
Republican parties, dubbed the
Peoples party, to accomplish that
end.
The dupcs of a gang of ignorant
demsgogues and self-seekers, COM
plain that neither of the old parties
has given them relief. That is alb
solutely true; but. is not a man
an idiot or a knave who fails to put
the responsibility where it belongs
and attempts to shoulder half of it
on to the Democratic party?
Since the day on which Abra-
ham Lincoln was inaugurated,
March 4, 1861, down to the present
day, a period of thirty-one years,
the Democratic party has never had
the power to enact into a Federal
law the most Insignificant measure,
that did not meet the appreciation
of the Republican party. Never
in all that time has it had the
power to impose burthen upon

General J. B. Weaver. the tbir

General j. B. Weaver, the third
party candidate, was provost mar
shall at Pulaski, Tenn, during the
war, and his cruelty to the people
in that vicinity has not been for
gotten. He took advantage of his
position to tax and otherwise inn
pose on the citizens of Pulaski, as
well as on the neighboring towns
which fell under his foraging and
tyranny. Men were arrested and
imprisoned ON trumped up charges,
which could not be proven, and
were only released on the payment
of the ransom. A tax was levied
by Weaver to support Yankee SOL
diers and refugees. Stock was
stolen, smokehouses robbed and
every indignity imposed on the
people of Giles county. Weaver
was merciless foe, and exercised
his authority in a brutal and cruel
manner. Houston Post.

the farmers, if it had desired to do
so, nor to remove those burthens
that now lie upon them, and which
it has denounced and sought to re-
move.
Before the beginning of the pc
Rod mentioned, the Democratic
party had control of the govern
ment for more than two-thirds of
the existence of the Union and the
people were prosperous and con-
tented. From the beginning of
the period mentioned to this day,
the government has been ruled by
the Republican party, and all the
evils and burthens, all the class
legislation that exist; are the crea-
tons of the Republican policy.
With these facts before him, and
in view of the strenuous efforts
that the Democratic party has
made to destroy these evils and OPP
pressions and so return to a wise
and just system of government, we
repeat that the man who denounces
and curses both the old parties and
throws himself into the arms of
the gang of sore heads. demagogues
agitatators and rainbow chasers,
who compose the piebald route
styled the Peopole's party, either
is an idiot who cannot comprehend
the difference between black and
white. or knave who has some ul-
terror and selfish end to accomplish
by imposing upon his fellow-men.
The Peoples party in the South
is the stool-pigeon of the Republi-
can party. There is no more
chance Of Weaver being elected
president than of Satan gain
ing control of heaven. But there
is a possibility and very grave
possibility, that the so-called Peo-
pies party may throw one or two
Southern States to Harrison, and
thus elect him and perpetuate the
very evils the farmers are COM
planning of; and this is just the
result that every Louisiana farmer
who now deserts the Democratic
party and votes for the Peoples
party, is contributing to.

The Third party, which was GO
ing to capture the State of Alabama
so fast, made complete failure, as
was to be expected. With the aid
of two-thirds of the Republican
negro votes, they were still beaten
by a Democratic majority of more
than fifteen thousand. The legis-
lature is Democratic by about two
thirds majority, and Jones, the
Democratic candidate, is elected
governor over Kolb, the Third

place-hunter.
