, The rate last year was but so cents, The additional r cents has been ren- dered necessary from the fact that un- der the funding act the territory pays the interest on the indebtedness here tofore borne by the separate counties.

 One of our esteemed contemporaries, says the Phoenix Herald, excuses the Worlds Fair fiasco of Arizona by say ing that "the trouble is not with the cofhmissioneis but in the apathy of the people who failed to take aR inter est in the matter The people of the Territory thought that when they had furnished $80, 900 in gold coin and an intelligent commission that they had done their duty; they could not afford to go down into their private pockets in the matter for the very reason that there would be DO limit 10 the demand upon them; they expected the commis- sion to make purchase of such exhibits as would not be donated, and at the very least that the commission would make some effort to collect display.

A Grand Staucture.

| The bill authorizing the construction
OF railway bridge over the Missis-
slppi river passed the House last Thurs
day. 1t provides for location of the
bridge within the city limits or five
miles above New Orleans, and the
structure will be built under the di-
reetlon of the Secretary of War The
bridge will have two spans, 1000 feet
apart, and will be eighty five feet high.
i A special to the N. O. Times Demo
crat from Chicago, Jan. Doth, gives the
following details of this grand project :
/ PRESIDENT Harrison has just signed
bill which authorizes Chicago men
to construct over the Mississippi river,
at New Orleans, the largest cantilever
bridge in America. Surveyors and en-
gineers will leave the city at once to
/ begin preliminary operations, and
within three years the $5,000,000
structure will be ready for traffic The
| plan is one in which all the railroads in
the South are interested, and the, con-
tract has been given to Cortheil &
karner, civil engineers, with off ices in
the Masonic Temple here. The bridge
will have many stupendous dimensions.
1t must be built of steel, with three un-
broken and continuous spans between
the river banks, as defined by medium
| stage of water, and with but two piers
in the river. The length of the main
channelspan will be zoos feet, and the
two side spans will be 757 feet long,
with the lowest part of the upper struct-
ure not less than IS feet above the ex,
treme high water mark
This will make the bridge but few
feet less than half mile in length.
Being sufficient height to allow the
largest river steamers to pas under it.,
the approaches will each be at least
mile long Thus from end to end the
giant affair will be two and one half
miles in length and unequaled this side
of the wonderful Firth of Forth bridge
on the east coast of Scotland, which
has three spans of l7l0 feet each 1t
will put away in the shadow the struct-
ure over Niagara, in which the centre
span Is but l19 feet, and will be ap,
preached by no other cautileYer under
taking in this country except the
bridge over the Hudson at Poughkeep-

For Superintendent of the Mint.

IhlbOdauX Sentinel
The time for a1ehange of administra-
tion fast approaches. On the 4th of
March next, Grover Cleveland will be
inaugurated president of the United
States foI second term after an inter-
val of four years; and soon thereafter
changes will begin to be made in the
various ministerial offices of the gov
ernment. Among the changes to be
made in Louisiana will be that of Super
intendent of the mint at New Orleans.
For this exalted position we know of
no worther man than the Hon. Gabriel
aMontegnt of Terrebonne who so credit
ably filled it during Mr.. Cleveland's first
administration. Mr.. Montegut's high
eat recommendation is his past record
as Superintendent, which bears ample
testimony to his integrity, competency
and efficiency as public servant, and
reached such high standard of excel
lence as to elicit the praise and COM
mendation of his political opponents.
Mr.. Montegat's appointment to the su-
perintendency Of the Mint would not
only prove to be o graceful recognition
of the faithful discharge of his duties
as a public official, but would also be a
fit testimonial for the many services
which he has rendered throughout these
many years to the Democratic party of
Louisiana, not the least of which SER
vices were rendered at the last Nevem-
Der election in bringing into the Demo-
cratic column for the first time since
the war, our sister parish of Terrebonne.
Mr.. Montegut's Democracy is of the
genuine and uncompromising type, and
his zeal for the success of the party has
always been such that he has always
been found fighting in the front ranks,
even at times in the days of radicalism,
when the fight was that of forlorn hope.
We feel certain that Mr.. Montegut's
appointment to the superintendency of
the Mint would prove very gratifying to
his many friends and admirers through
out the State, and we trust that Presi
dent Cleveland will see bis way clear to
tender him the appointment soon after
he has assumed the duties Of the high
trust to which he has been recently
elevated by the voice of the people of
this Union,

at becomes question of great Importance
how far the government will allow individu-

Mr.. Wanamaker should remember that this
was in 1916, and in an era in which the peo-
pie were thought to have some rights.
