ST. LOUIS, Nov. 29.-The typhoid

RELIABLE INSURANCE MEN AND
THEIR COMPANY.

The PRoGREss takes pleasure in re-
ferring to the card of Messrs. Levy
& Battle, life insurance agents, which
appears in this number of our paper.
For the gentlemen themselves we
cheerfully speak words of praise and
commentator for their reliability
and business integrity and judgment,
and can consistently recommend
them to any community. OF course
this is is not intended to have effect
on our own people, as they are so
we'll known in Shreveport that 1t
would be a waste of words to write
in their praise.
The company which they represent
the Home Life Insurance Company
of New York has an excellent tinan-
cial standing, an abundance of as
sets, far beyond and above its liabili-
ties, being fully rs per cent more. Its
investments are not only very remu-
nerative but thoroughly secure, which
makes it an exceedingly reliable life
insurance institution. 1t issues plans
of policies which few can compete
with and none excel, giving extern
sive benefits to its policy holders,
while itself is thoroughly protected.

GIVE ALL A FAIR DEAL.

1t was a considerable surprise to
THE PRoGREss to note in the Caucas-
ian of Thursday that it had secured
the parish printing.
We try to keep posted on matters
which would be OF special interest to
our paper, and, "with an eye to busi-
ness" have been scrutinizing the
evening paper for some time looking
out for the notice of 'Bids for Parish
Printing" as such notices are gener-
ally worded, in order to make bid
on the work. It is to the interest OF
the taxpayers to give such work to
the paper of responsibility which will
perform the service at the lowest
rates, and it seems to us that this i'm
portant matter should have been adj
vertised in such a manner as to read
ily attract the attention of all, and
especially of the newspapers of the
parish. This was not done, neither
in point of time nor explicitness.
Now we believe that all thinking
people will readily see that an injus-
tice has been done both the Times
and The PRoGREss, whether inten-
tionally or not. The PRoGREss was
prepared to bid on this printing. II
was not due to negligence that it die
not. We think the case, under the
circumstances, justi6es reconsider
rtion. and we think the police jury
should view it that way.

The lion is now dead, and tho jacaals

was no saint; we don't know that he

we do know that he did much for
vilization, more for commerce. He
knew neither sentiment nor sympa-
thy when he undertook to secure a
raLr Jad, but the public generally got
the benefit of his manipulations. He
was certainly master of finance, and
could no doubt control more capital
than any other individual in the
United States. Several men were
possessed of more money, but none
had the confidence of capitalists that
Gould had, nor could interest as much
outside capital in an enterprise as he
could, especially when that enterprise
was railroad scheme. His Heath
will no doubt have much influence Oh

Gould has lived his time, performed
his part, and now let him rest in
peace if it is possible. Let his many
deficiencies, if he had any, be lost

1t has worked up an immense and
fattering trade, not only in Shreye-

North Louisiana. This is due as much
to the splendid quality Of goods
which it handles as anything else.
Their stock of heavy and shelf goods

Besides this stock, the Southern

to be worth twice as much as any on

nothing else, either on railroad or
levee work. Ask meE who use scrapers
for a living whose make to buy; SO
don't make mistake now and buy a
scraper that levee contractors would
not use.
Call and see these scrapers and we
win then show you exactly their ad-
vantage over all others, both in work
