NEUROLOGY.

Mr.. HENRY GENIUS of Alexan-
dria, La, died at his home on the
- inst.
Mr.. Genius was formerly a resi-
dent of this city for many years,
and was well thought of and high
ly respected by all who knew him.
The writers acquaintance with the
deceased was very limited, but du-
ring this short acquaintance we
learned to esteem him very highly
as social, genial friend and com
panion. To his bereaved friends
and relatives, we extend the deep
est sympathies.

Mr.. w. B. Gewin, Il contractor
and builder of this city, visited our

born last Sunday. The mother and
babe doing well. He also inform
ed us that he expected to treat his
dwelling to new coat of paint in
the course of the next week.

Mr.. e. j. Gamble is one more of
the many men who has the courage
of his convictions and dareS to
speak what he believes to he right.
Mr.. Gamble is a prominent mer-
chant of this place, and being a
man who thinks for himself he has
been reading and investigating the
present conditions and their causes,
and after due deliberation he came
to the conclusion that relief must
be sought outside of the old par
ties. Be sure to read his reasons,
which are published elsewhere in
this issue. Mr.. Gamble has here
tofore been a Democrat and he now
comes to the Populists because he
believes they are right.

Too Late for Him, Not for You.

One of the best business men in town
had an inconsiderable fire on his premi-
ses some few days since, which DANA
ged the house little and destroyed S35
dollars worth of furniture. When he
looked at his policy it only covered the
house, so he lost enough in Is minutes
to pay for Il policy on his furniture for
years. He called in next day and put
line Oh his furniture, but it was like
locking the stable after the horse was
gone. But its never too late to do good,
so we advise our friends to call on Alez-
ander, Hill q Breazeale, and insure their
property. as they represent the best and
strongest Companies, and adjmst all losses
Themselves.

Beginning To Fall Into the Hands
or the Money Trusts.

A money trust and loan com.
pany has closed out a widow wo-
man in upper Red river. A few
years ago she mortgaged her planta-
tion worth from $685. to $4,000.
A short time since we failed to pay
the interest, and the mortgage was
foreclosed and the property was
sold, and bought in by the money
lender for $4,000. No other bid on
it. 1t is said that there was a resi-.
dence on this place worth $40, 900.
This is the way landism is to be es-
tablished in free America.

EDITOR PoPULIsT:
Well the problem for hard times is
settled. A merchant in Montgomery
took one of his customers into his ledg-
er and showed him where he had lost
seventy days coming to town after tobac-
co, concentrated lye and 'sich." So all
this worry may now cease. Balm of
Gilead to a storm tossed people But
in two hours afterwards he explained to
another one who came growing about
hard times and who owed but little and
made big crops, that there was to d-n
much cotton made-over production.
Let us all now be thankful. The cause
discovered, very clear. Lazy, work
more. Industrious, produce less

soon left its companion far behind the

the sportsmen's dogs now joined in the

struggle.
Lifting one of its hoofs it dashed 1t

down the foremost dog and throwing

But this effort was the last jerking
