HON. OTERTON CADE. AND
CAPT. LEWIS GUJON.

As we stated in our last issue, we
give here a short sketch of the two
distinguished gentlemen whose name
head this article, the former appoint
ed superintendent of the New Orle-
ans Mint" and the latter, "Melter and
Refner' of the same institution, both
from the Third Congressional District,
M from Lafayette and the other
from Lafourche Parishes
OvertOn Cade is a .sOI of Robert
Cade. a Sonth Carolinian, who settled
in southwest Louisiana in the first
quarter of the present century, and
who figured prominently in political
lite up to within a few years of his
death, in 1859.
Mr.. Cade was born in the Parish of
Lafayette, in 1852. At the age of IA
years he entered the Jesuit College at
Grand Coteau, and afterwards went to
Spring Hill College, rear Noble, Ala.
The last three years Of his school life
was passed at the University of the
South, Sewanee, Tenn. Upon the
completion Of his course he returned
to his home and engaged in planting.
His plantation is located near Youngs-
vile, La, and comprises 1900 acres of
land, one-half of which is under culti-
walton, and the remainder reserved as
a pasture for his large herd of stock.
He is also interested with his broth
ers, c. Taylor Cade and VIM. Cade,
in a cattle ranch in Texas.
Mr.. Cade has always taken an &C.
tive and commendable interest in pub
lie affairs, and is thoroughly informed
upon all questions of the day. He
has always been a Democrat, and in
1879 he was elected a member of the
state house Of representatives from
the Parish of Lafayette. In the same
year he married Miss Snedes, of Mis-
sissippi. In 1883, with the certainty
of a stormy time ahead, he was again
chosen to represent his parish in the
lower branch of the general assembly,
and was reelected in 1892. He was a
staunch adherent Of the anti lottery
cause, and an opponent of the recbar-
tering act. Since the session of 1888
he has been chairman of the commit
tee on contingent expenses of the
house of representatives, and has rem
dered valuable service in that capaci-
ty. His record is clean and honora-
bic, and few men enjoy the good OPT
MON and confidence of their constitu-
ents to a greater extent that he.
He has always been a true Demo-
crat and conservative in all his politi-
cal views, and although our choice
was and has always been the Hon. g..
Montegut, yet, as he could not be ap-
pointed under the Presidents in1exi-
ble er-rule, we cordially accept the
appointment of the Hon. Overton
Cade, and sincerely believe that no
better appointment could have been
made throughout the Sd Congression-
al District; he is a gentleman in every
respect worthy the position to which
he a been appointed.
As for Capt. Lewis Guion, appoint
ed "Melter and Re6ner" to the New

Whereas, it is of the deepest impor-
lance to those interested in the culti-
walton and development Of the ~alluvial
lands of the Mississippi river and its
tributaries that there should be con-
cert of action aud a uniform system of
protection against the annual floods,
and if possible, an harmonious, unified
opinion on the subject. and believing
that the deliberations of a body of rer-
resentative men, OF practical expe-
r~ience, having public and private in
terest involved, would result in pub
lie good, and further in Difference to
the general agitation of this question
by our fellow-citizens living in these
a~lluvial districts; therefore, l. Muir
ply j. Foster, Governor of the State
of Louisiana, do issue this call for a
meeting on the Goth day of July, A.
d. 1893, at the city of Baton Rouge,
of the members of the Levee Board of
the several levee districts of this State,
and cordially invite the authorities
having charge OF the levees on the

kansas and Mississippi to be present
at this meeting and take part in its de-
alterations.
MURPHY j. FOSTER, Governor.
Baton Rouge, La, July 10, 1898.
This call is a p%raiseworthy and OPP

all the views cf the knowing ones be
well ventilated and sifted down. 80
that the results of the deliberations
may be such that our lands now sub

hereafter protected from the o%vertiOws.
What u country nov wants above
all is this protection. Give it to US !;
and Southern Louisiana will become
