Quite an amusing incident took
place in the upper portion OF this
parish few weeks ago. A certain
public school was attended by only
the children of Third Partyltes
Two children of Democratic paren-
tage were admitted into the school
by the teacher. Thereupon the
patrons, being reformers of the
most pronounced type called for the
teachers resignation. This he re-
fused to do and of course was sus-
tanned by authority. The Third
Party people of that vicinity are
nursing their grievance and at the
proper time will proclaim theii
wrong. Such is politics, -Coushat
ia Citizen 80
The Third party reformers seen
inclined to go to the utmost ex
IRENE in their intolerance, and SO i
is with all those who depart from
the grand old landmarks OF tru'
Democracy.

Last week we referred to the boil

Last week we referred to the boil
tiers from the Monroe Convention of
the Executive Committees Of the
several parishes composing the
Fifth Congressional district, aud
commented on their extraordinary
course from strictly Democratic
standpoint. The Farraersyille Ga
zette in it's last issue let in some
light on the belter's movements by
showing up their sectional animus.
It says, referring to the March pri-
mary:
Under that agreement the voters
of the hill parishes--the Democratic
stronghold of the district-had rid
ded themselves of the unjust doml-
nation and control of the river par
|ishes, whose population is over
whelmingly made up of llllterate
negroes.
Thosessilliterate negros" are legis-
innate voters under the constitution
and their votes have contributed
time and again to wrest the Fifth
Congressional district from the
grasp of the centralizing Radicals,
and but for the Democracy of the
river parishes there would be no
Democratic Representative sent to
Congress from North Louisiana as
the Gazette must well know. 'To
show the sectional animus more
fully, Confrere Trimble banking
upon the temporary compact that
sprung. out of factional necessity,
closes his comment upon the Conven
| ton and the action of the boilers
as follows:
By the adoption of the basis o
fapportionment passed upon las
d March, the long-hoped-for opportu
nifty was presented to the, hill par
/ ishes of the 5th congressional dis
!. trict to right a political wrong
i gross injustice which they hay'
been forced to submit to for year
past, and they don't propose to le
! this golden opportunity slip. The.
I are in position to demand thei
II rights, and they would be traitor
to their ownointerests were they no
to do so.
Which shows the situation In
nutshell. No matter what become

{ no thing from sectional point 9

j selves against the s.river parishes
: and turn traitors to Democracy, bt

Is safe to say that the audiences for the
rest OF the engagement will be much
larger. The horses do marvellous things
Tor dumb animals, and it must impress
all observers with the wonderful char
acter OF the achievement OF their cduca-
tor. In the opening school scene the
animals count, tell time by a watch and
show other evidences OF reasoning
faculties and intelligence which, would
be regarded as incredible if not vouched
for by so many people. The military
drill is also worthy OF the admiration OF
all lovers Of intelligence in the brute
creation. Tho horses perform evolu-
tons OF the most intricate character at
the word OF command just as human
soldiers do, and this feature never fails
to bring down the house. Any show
is incomplete without its clown, and tho
two mules fill that role to perfection.
Prof. Bristol carries his own brass
band and orchestra, and gives in every
respect an admirable and enjoyable
show. 1t is which all classes and
all ages can enjoy, and while he re-
mains in Wheeling no person ought to
miss the opportunity. 4 matinee es-

"The entertainment given by the
Lotus Glce Club last Friday evening
was the finest effort yet made to please
the wonderfully fine audience the Lee
ture Association Course has drawn this
year. One great feature OF the Singing
OF this club is the distinctness with
which they pronounce each word. Not
a syllable was uttered by one of tho
singers that could not be heard plainly
by the audience. Miss Marshalls read
ing was also captivating. From the
first syllable that escaped her lips it
was evident that she had captured tile
audience, andencorc afterencore proved
how cffectually."
