The question of the day is
the sugar growers move. Il is
discussed everywhere and by
everybody. Almost everybody in
this section is in sympathy with
the sugar men.
Stands have been erected at
the race track at this place for the
ease and comfort of those who are
amateurs of horses and races.
There will be some interesting
races tomorrow.
We are requested by the men,
bers of Volunteer Fire Co No l,
to extend their sincere thanks to
the ladies and gentlemen who as
sisted them, and those who contri-
buted for the fair given last Sum-
day.
AS rule, all those who live
in political Offices, are opposed to
the Sugar growers move. The
reason for this is that they are
afraid of division of the people.
They are interested in keeping
them together, to keep them in
Ofiices.
We are sorry not to have been

THE SUGAR GROWERS.

The sugar growers of Assump-
ton and st. Mary have held mass
meetings, which was followed by
another held in New Orleans, and
these meetings have denounced
the Democratic party for it's un-
Just treatment of sugar in the last
Congress.
The expression of the speakers
and resolutions adopted at all
these meetings favor their. seced-
ing from the Democratic party to
join the Republican ranks, and
put Republican candidates in
the first, second and third con-
gressional districts, and to thor
oughly canvass these districts.
Another grand ratification meet
ing will be held in New Orleans
on the 18th inst.
The sugar growers large and
small are almost unanimously in
favor of protection, and we have
heard many in this parish declare
publicly their intention to vote
the Republican ticket.
At the present time the sugar
planters movement is very popu-
lar, but when the politicians be.
gin their work, and picture the
negro on top Of the white man
and such ridiculous argument, il
always has its effect on the igno.
rant class.
But such argument will have
no effect on the intelligent class
for no white man who has intelli
gence enough to study the two
races will fear negro domination
The negro will only dominate the
low class who affiliate with hin
and who seeks his level, but NJ
straight up, fearless and honora
BILE people can ever be dominated
by the negro, under no circum
stances.

Long VALLEY.

The road to Long Valley, over the
mountains is still inaccessible, owing
to the depth of the snow (Which is
about six feet deep in the hollow of
the road) and the many fallen trees
blocking up the way. The road by
Salmon Meadows is some muddy in
places yet, owing to the recent high
water; but very fair for mountain
road at this season of the year.
Haying has commenced and there
is prospect for fine crop of hay.
The grain crop and gardens are
considerably in advance of, and equal
to those in Indian and Council Val
legs, as we judge from our own OBJ
servation in passing through those
valleys.
Strawberries are just beginning to
ripen, and there promises to be an
abundant crop Last year from a
small patch of Strawberries seven
teen gallons were picked.
A base ball club has been formed
and the boys are doing some good
playing.
A large company of Norwegian
emigrants are intending to settle in
this valley this summer. The COM
mittee sent out by them to choose a
location, after travelling over a large
part of Idaho, decided to locate il
Long Valley. They say they do not
mind the deep snow, they are used t.
it. Here they can find good water
good soil, plenty of timber, car
raise grain and gardens, and thinl
that deep snow and long winters arr
less inconvience than scarcity of feeC
for winter, poor water and very little
of it, no timber and no range 70
stock. They have decided to settl
i'll Long Valley.

Mr.. True is mining man of wide
experience, and will push operations
on the Rescue mine of which he is
owner. He has hosting machine

which will soon be taken into the
