AnE Atlanta Enterprise of Great
Merit.

1t affords US pleasure to call es-
pecial attention to the advertise
ment of ''The Mothers Friend,"
appearing in this issue.
The Bradfeld Regulator Co.. of
Atlanta, Ga, have at great expense
issued a most attractive and meri-
torious book, which they mail free,
containg information of the great
est value and Importance to all la
dies expecting to become mothers.
That the "Mothers' Friend" is
a remedy wonderful in its effects,
and relieves the expectant mother
of incredible suffering and robs
the final hour of confinement of
its dread, pain and terror, is fully
attested by the experience of hap
py mothers all over this continent.
A perusal of the book will con-
vince any lady, and the use of
Mothers Friend" cause her to
become its enthusiastic friend,
blessing the hour when first she
heard of it and was induced to use
it.

pectant Mothers" containing in

tana are reported by our friends to
be all right. If we carry either of
three states of Minnesota, Michi-
gan or Indiana, we certainly win.
and our reports are favorable from
them all. Martin chairman OF
committee of Indiana wired me at
. o'clock tins morning that we have
Indiana. All reports from Michi-
gan show immense gains, and
Towns, Of Minnesota, says he has
carried his district, although the
republicans claim it. Reports from
our friends everywhere show press
reports to be partisan and grossly
unfair to us. Press bulletins per
sistently give Kentucky to McKin-
ley, while Somers, chairman of the
committee says that fOrty-two
counties of the 119 give Bryan

fsailcy's Chance.
JAMES X. JONES.

At this time it looks as if there
was little hope of Bailey's election
IN this district. We have only
meagre returns from other parishes
but we Judge the situation by this
parish, which gave Bailey a ma
iority of 4S6 in 1884, and now gives
Ogden a majority of 124, by Pop
ulists staying at home.
The election so far as heard from
seems to have been reasonably fair,
with a few exceptions, though Bos-
sier has not been heard from.
Bailey carries Sabine by only
. majority. while CaddO gave
Bailey 169 and Ogden 1858, or a
majority of 1889; Bienville is
claimed by Ogden's friend at Ar
cadia, by a majority Of 400. 9th
er claims for Ogden are, Rapides
1900; DeSoto, 400; Bossier, 1900.
One thing remarkable is the
election at Cheneyville, which gives
Ogden IS, Bailey IA, or a majority
of only A for Ogden, while it was
4OS in '94, Lots of Ogden's friends
there and in BOsSier, CaddO, etc.,
have either died or moved away
since last election.
Well, the partial victory for a
fair election is some consolation,
and if the Populists had half tried
they could have elected their man.
Many of the faithfuls did their
whole duty, but others did nothing
but growl about the action of their
party, and this discouraged others.
The people will learn after awhile
who their true friends are.

benjamin T. Brian, born Nov.
90, 1893. departed this life at 1::225
p. m, Oct. 2G. 1896, at his old
homestead, near Pollock, Grant
parish, La, aged 63 years, less 81
days, after several months illness
and suffering with dropsy.
This good old man has gone to
reap the reward of his labors on
earth; and to all those who knew
him as we did there can be no fears
but that it is rich and bountlful.
Few persons have been of imore
use TO his community than the de-
ceased. As citizen he was al
ways alive to the best interest of
his country, respecting the rights
of all, giving strict obedience to
law, never faltering in any duty or
obligation imposed upon him, ever
showing great liberality in the
support of good government, good
order and peace, but ever ready to
contend for justice and the rights
of the people.
As a Christian and neighbor he
was remarkable in many respects.
Although a minister of the Baptist
church the greater part of his life,
be had the highest respect for all
other christian denominations. AS
a hus band and father he was indul-
gent, attentively kind and affec-
tionate, and at the same time firm
and decisive.
With all these good traits of
character and virtue, and perhaps
a thousand more, and that unwa-
vering Christian faith Tor which
he was noted, that he has gone to
meet his God, where all is joy and
and peace, who can doubt!
May all who knew him and low
ed him 'assimilate his virtues, that
they may live as he lived and die
as he died. God is the final Judge,
but on earth | think it is safe to
say that my dear old friend left no
one whose severest judgment would
not be that he deserved to be num-
bered among ther blessed. Of all
the old men of Grant, whose bo-
dies rest beneath the sod, but whose
memory rises up to challenge my
love and admiration, l call to mind
no one who stands ahead of Ben
iamin F. Brian. Pure of heart,
pure of mind, sincere friend and
faithful Christian, he lived be-
loved and died lamented by all
who knew him. May my last end
be like his. w. p. G..

It Looks Like Bryan.
ELECTION NEWS.

All the Associated Press dis
patches sent out for "a hours af-
ter the election were favorable to
Mckinley, and pictured such over
whelming and universal majorit;es
that people began to grow suspi-
cious of their truthfulness. 1t
now transpires that they were fictl-
cious, or at least that news favora-
bic to Bryan were suppressed, and
that the Associated Press, which
is of course, owned by McKinley's
friends, was manipulating returns
preparatory to another 1876 steal,
in case the result was doubtful.
The following from Populist
headquarters, and from chairman
Jones, is proof Of the correctness
of this theory:
Chicago, Nov. 4.-The following
statement of the presidential stu
alton was issued tonight by chair
man Washburn, of the Chicago
headquarters peoples party COM
mittee. ''To the voters of the
United States. Our facilities for
receiving the election returns are
equal to any. We know from pri-
vate advices and the returns up to
date, that Mckinley Is not elected.
On the other hand the latest re-
turns justify our claim that Mr..
Bryan is elected. 1t is one of the
peculiarities of republican enter
prise that they always claim every
thing in sight a few hours after
election.
In 1876 as well as in 1884 it was
not known for three or four days
which candidate had won, although
the early returns indicated republi-
can success, democratic followed.
Again four years ago the early re-
turns favored Harrison's election,
while the subsequent ones elected
Cleveland. This year the early
returns favored Mckinley because
they came from the eastern and
middle states and from cities of
other states, while the returns
from the south and west were with
held, so as to stampede public SEN
timent, that Mckinley was elected,
whether he was or not and thus
create sentiment in advance which
would operate to his advantage in
case the election was contested,
while on the other hand, had the
first returns announced Bryan's
success and a contest resulted there
would be an uprising of the peo-
pie through fear of repetition of
the Tilden episode.
We have positive evidence that
the republican-national committee
have wired their state committee
to claim certain states which are
in doubt fearing that the subse-
quent returns might indicate Bry-
ans election. We shall soon Wig
orously press the question, if 1t is
not for the purpose of manipula-
ting them, why are they held back.
We want the American people to
be patient and calm and to wait for
the official returns and pay no at
tention to the false reports sent
out by manipulating committees.
We also feel justified in assuring
the people that if Bryan is elected
he will be seated. The will OF the
people will never again be defeat
ed through the manipulations of
returning boards to capture the
presidency. The political crime
of 1876 will be registered if re-
peated.
