About 200 are in use in this city and

AS Cookers they are unrivalled and
are far superior TO coal or wood stoves in

AS Water Heaters and "Ironersv
they are most useful, especially when the
weather is too warm TO use the ordinary
stove or range
As a heating apparatus that can be
moved from room TO room in a few min
utes by the housekeeper they are most
convenient.
AS assistant heaters ia rooms where
furnaces or steam heat win not ascend
ON the windward side they have given
great satisfaction.
AS permanent heaters in rooms that
cannot be reached BY heating hues they
have given much comfort.
AS intermittcnt heaters. where heat Is
wanted only an hour or two at time,
they are economical
For Offices and stores, when the weather
is rather warm for furnace fires, they
may prevent sickness
For spring and autumn use, when mild
days make furnace fires oppressive trou-
blesome and expensive, they are comfort
able and economical
AS fires that can be started in min
ute and extinguished IN less time, they
are most satisfactory.
As heaters that avoid ASHES. COAL
GAS and DUST. they are valued by pru-

BE on Your Guard-success
Follows the vigiIant.

The removal of Mr.. j. j. Thompson
and the appointment of Mr.. Freeman
Burr as Returning Officer, gives ground
for vigilance on our part. You can't
steal your neighbor's horse if he is
watching you; and they can't count
as out II We watch them. The func-
tIons of the Returning Officer are pure
~ ministerial, and his duties are too
well laid down to admit of any doubt.
Section 81 of act No. So of 1877 pro.
vides that Immediately after taking
the oath, the commissioner shall pro-
ceed to count the votes without NOV.
ing the boxes from the room or place
where the votes were received and in
the presence of any voter or voters
who may desire to be present.
This safeguard makes it utterly i'm
possible for the commissioners to do
anything but what is right, because
some interested person or persons will
nnquestionably be present at the count,
and, therefore, no commissioner
would dare, under the pains and pen
alties of the law to alter or change the
returns, before taking them to the
returning officer, because the result
would be in the hands of other parties
who could easily prove up the fraud ];
nor could the returning officer
make any alterations, as his guilt
could be too easily detected. Men
are not willing to bring themselves un-
der the ban of the law in order to re-
ward few ambitious politicians. It's
to be hoped that this will be an honest,
peaceful and fair election, and that
the 10Th day of this month will not be
marred by any disturbance of any
kind. A good many intimations have
been made about counting out, and no
doubt with some seriousness, if the ac-
tion of Col. Young can be taken as o
guide; but it must be remembered that
fortunately for Col. Young that was
not general election, and the peui-
tentiary walls did not overshadow him,
but they are wide open to receive any
and all who dare to interfere with OF
violate the election law on thai day.
Remarks have been recently made to
the colored men, coming from the Fos
terites, that it makes no difference b ow
the negroes vote, that the result will be
the same. This is blatant talk it can It
be carried out; the manhood aud in-
telligence of the people will froNn
down upon it and crush it out. The
votes must be honestly counted and
honestly returned. There are too
many on their guard. The boxes are
brought to the clerks Office and the
clerk is furnished with one of the tally
sheets, and III that office, the Clerks
office, he being the castodion of the
boxes. the returning officer makes his
tabulated statement.

one step Forward.

We have reached one point, never
before attained by the entire Democ-
racy of Louisiana, and il isto be hoped
it portends future regard for the vitali
ty of our constitutional declara tions.
Both factions of the party now recog-
nize tile right Of the colored man to
vote, and both are moving heaven
and earth to get his support.
We may add that the colored man
now appears to nave learned that, when
be abandons tile race test, he can have
his vote counted. What ultimate good
may flow from this change in the com
sent Of the one, and the readiness of
the other race, no one can now see, ex Z
ccpt few prescient sayans, who are de-
TERED by native modesty from telling.
