A Coming Centennial.

The people OF St. Louis are taking steps
to celebrate April -, 1905. as the Tooth
anniversary Of the Louisiana purchase.
1t is proposed to make the celebration an
event that will rival the Worlds fair at
Chicago.
Certainly no event since the discovery
OF America. says the New York World,
has had greater influsnce in the history
OF the world than the Louisiana purchase
the single stroke OF statesmanship
which assured the standing of the Unit
ed States as the greatest power of mod
ern times.
Long before the purchase was made
Of attack from the west had
purchase and in the Lew is and Clark ex-
petition, which gave us the Pacific as
boundary, Mr. Jefferson showed that
prophetic sense OF our possibilities OF
greatness which, next to his love for indi-
vidual liberty, was the dominating idea
of his life.
II the purchase of Louisiana had not
been made we would have lost the Mis-
sissppi. the Northwest territory, and ev-
erything else We now hold except the ter.
ritory cast of the Alleghanies. The
question of the control OF the continent
would have been left between France and
England. with all the chances in favor of
England, as Napolen saw when he sold
the continent for song. He said 10 Yer
gennes. as he laid down the pen with
which he had signed the treaty, II have
this day founded a power that will yet
humble the pride OF England as nistre; 9
of the seas"
II is curious contradiction that Mr..
Jefferson, who more than most mtn
feared the effect OF national ambitions on
liberty, should have changed America
from little group OF independent states
to vast federation that is practically an
empire.

Yakima County's Leading Papers.
Prosser American: In reading the Yak
lima HERALD and Yakima Republic the
american is impressed more fully each
week with the fact that North Yakima is
favored in having two such well.conduct-
ed papers. 1t is seldom that town OF
that size can boast of such newsy, clean
and able journals, and We say'it not with
a view of fiattering. We believe that,
outside OF the american, they are the
two best country papers in the state.
Long life to them.

Sept. 10, 1895.
Mrs. II. C. butcher and her daughter,
Miss Minnie. spent Sunday night with
Mrs. j. w. Horing.
w. A. PeCkham and his sister Mercy
went over to Mr.. Dan Smiths Sunday.
Miss Minnie Malone is the guest OF the
Misses Peckham this week. a
Messrs. A. Dimmick and PointerE
Wilkins ginned and sold some cotRn
last week for 7 3IS. Think the edly
cotton will bring the best price.
Miss Florence Wilson was visi4 ing
Miss Charlie Boring this week. Slid ke-
turned home on Sunday.
Maj. M. Il. Wilson has been away from
home the last few days.
The protracted meeting is still going
on, conducted by Rev. e. Il. benson, as
sisted two or three nights by Rev. Mr..
Turner of Big Cane. He has had a
crowded house every night. Everybody
seems to have taken quite an interest in
the meeting, but there have been only
two conversions so far-Mr. A. j. Sud
deth and wife.
Mr.. Densois has delivered some good
sermons during this meeting, but the
one on last Saturday night | thought
was hard to beat-it was simply grand.
A good many people have attended the
meeting from Opelousas. Presiding Ell
der White preached on Monday night.
From all appearances the meeting will
go on the balance OF this week.
Capt. j. p. Smith has been quite busy
this week gathering his pea hay.
We are having some very hot weather
at this time and the dust is almost I'M
bearable-enough to make one sick to
get out in the roads. Would like to see
enough rain to settle the dust. Fine
weather for gathering the crops, though.

The silver question has no business in State
politics. 1t will disrupt the Democratic party
as it has done in Kentucky, and harm instead
OF help the silver cause.-St. Landry Clarion,
Sept. It'll.
Quite a change has come over the
spirit of its dreams since last June. How
explain its position now with the one
occupied by its adherents when they
said they were not willing to vote for
no ma for Governor or the Legislature
who was not in favor Of free silver. Ii
you can elect a Governor and Legisla-
ture without injecting the question in
