Mr.. Bryan's Address.
nes- Democrat, November 7.

Times Delpocrat, November z.
Ia the address to -.himetallists of
this cMortry, which he''ssued yesterday
Mr,t ryan speaks i'm : Sensible and man
" way. He takes tis defeat bravely
and there is no sulbdng because he was
not elected Presih at. He does not con-
slider the ae.faat-h final one !; and declares
that the Issue will go before the people
in 1900.
As for the trusts, combines and mon
opolies, which Mr. Bryan handles in a
very vigorous manner in his address
we need not wait until 1900 to deal with
them. There are laws on our statute
books providing for them, and the pen-
pie will insist that Mr. McKinley's ad-
miuistratinn enforce these laws.
But, while Mr.. Bryan does not ahan-
don the cause of bimetaliism or think il
lost, he believes in 9 wing the Mckinley
administration Il fair opportunity of
showing whetherit it can accomplish what
it has promised the country, and he says
of it:
"The Republican candidate has been
heralded as the advance agent Of pros
perity. Ii his policies bring real pros
| lerity to the American people, those
who opposed him will siarein that pros
perity. If, on tho other hand, his poll.
cies prove an injury to the people gene
rally, those of his supporters who dt
| not belong to the Office holding class, ol
to the privileged classes, will suffer il
common with those who opposed him.
Mr.. Bryan points out here fac
which all should thoroughly weigh aud
appreciate-that the whole country
must share in the good or evil fortune
that the Mckinley administration
brings the country. All, therefore, will
gladly cooperate to bring back pros
perity. If "hard times" still continnt
or come upon the country it will not b'
from any lack of effort on the part O
the people to prevent il.
By his sensible, conservative remarks
by the interest he shows in the prosper
ity of the country, even thoug h defeat
ed, Mr.. Bryan has endeared llImsel
still more to the six million or more vot
ers who supported him at The polls las

st. Landry Academy of Music.

Tho second exhibition concevt-an-
nounced for October 30-took place last
FRIDAY, November 6, before Il large and
apprecIatIve audience. With pleasure
we notice that the music loving people
OF our community are learning TO appre-
clate classic music and the works of the
old masters
Meber's Onver!ure of OberOn, Il most
difllcult composition, was rendered by
the professors and pupils of the Acade-
my to perfection and SO were Mendels-
shon's divine Adagio, for piano, organ
ana violin. The rendition of the Adag-
10 was perfectly sublime.
The piano solos of the Misses L. Ran
dali, l.. Veazio and A. Latonr showed
the progress of pupils and proficiency
of teacher.
The vocal department was again rep
resented by the Misses 0. Laas and NJ.
Zoder, with the addition of Miss Blanche
Lacombe. Each of these ladies is dis
tinct in the character Of voiceE--thrce
nightingales with different plumage
Miss Blanche Lacombe's voice, sweet,
soft and soothing and as clear as bell;
Miss Olympia Laas' energetic, pathetic
and impressive Miss Marguerite To-
der's quite different in its naturc-a
voice full of sentiment, touching heart
and soul, and sweetly melodious.
The two children, little Misses Hattie
Terwilliger and Constance Meginley,
exhibited their practical training as mu-
sicians by playing duets with Professor
Mayer.
The Professor again gave us PROOF of
his mastery of the violonce!lo and viol-
in. The audience was most select and
attentive to every piece on the pro-
gramme. After the concert the young
people enjoyed the pleasures of the
dance, and everybody left well salts
fed with the evenings entertainment.

Six Beauties.

The voting contest that has been car
ried on for the past month in order to
ascertain who were the six most hand
some young ladies' of St. Landry parish
was brought to IA close last Saturday
evening at o'clock, in the Opera House,
with the following result:
Miss Mamie Lastrapcs. first Miss Ada
SandoZ, second Miss Eleanor Daniel,
third Miss Olympia Laas, fourth Miss
Matte Curtis, fifth; Miss Lucille La
combe, sixth.
These young ladies' pictures will ap-
pear in "a gronp on the front page of the
st. Landry Trade Review, and will be
an excellent demonstration of st. Lam
dry beauty.
In this contest there appeared the
names of a large number of other young
ladies of the parish, any of whom would
have been fully entitled to the honor ;
but from the fact that the above named
had the largest number Of votes we were
compelled to abide by the majority.
This parish possesses many fair
daughters, and to give picture of each
would rcdnire volume of immense
size. SO we trust that no otfense will
be taken from The fact that ont of so
many fair "liIes" that have sprung up
and graced our land with beauty and
made homes brighter with their sunny
smiles, we have "plucked' but six.

William J. Bryan,
Times-Democrat, November 4.


Men die j; principles 90 not.
Throughout the whole of tho most
wonderful fight ever waged in IL poitl-
cal field in the interest of the people,
William Jennings Bryan has insisted
that men were nothing-that principles
were everything.
1t is no less true to-day than yt5ttt-
day. 1t is true tomorrow and forever.
No cause which repoSeS upon primer
pie can possibly he lost; it can only be
postponed.
So long as the fundamental principle
of government by the people is prcserv-
ed DO cause that is right is hopeless.
SO long as the right of free speech is
preserved, no cause that is right Is de-
fenseless
SO long as William Jennings Bryan
lives, the people have an advocate with
out fear and without reproach.
Looking back on the campaign OF the
last three months, every rejecting man
will testify that the young statesman
and has kept the faith. What more
could be required OF any mortal9
He has thrown himself into the battle
with all his force. He has not spared
himself. All that he could do has been
done What could victory add to him?
Nothing.
The Responsibilities of victory would
burden, not ennObie.
There have been some men in the
world SO great that defeat could sub
tract nothing from their greatness.
No sane man will ever admit that
such men can be tarnished 10y defeat.
His spots cannot shame the sun. The
spots do not belong to the sun. They
pertain to the atmosphere that sur
rounds him.
If defeat is, it is not Bryan that is de-
feated. Entirely to the contrary, he has
lightened defeat.
If defeat is, that which is defeated
for the moment only-is government on
the undying principles Of the immortal
jefferson.
That government has been defeated
several times in the course of our single
century of existence. Such defeats do
but purify, even while they scarify.
They sift out from the Democracy its
unworthy professors, and remit them to
the party to which they are by virtue of
their active motives affiliated. There
fore the Democratic party Is most re-
spendeDt in defeat.
Even though defeated, the Democracy
is prouder in that defeat than it could
be Of victory-for it has found and ap
proved leader.
Throughout the length and breadth Of
the land let that leader be acclaimed.

Mrs. Faueiie Lastrapes, widow Of
Michel Haphen, Sr., died at the resi-
dence of her son in-law, Fernand Hal
phen, last week, aged GO years. De-
ceased, who was member of one of the
oldest aud most respected Creole fami-
lies of the State, was n native of this
parish, where she always sIiyed. BY her
amiabn traits and at1ectiona,e disposi-
ton and charitable deeds, she had en-
deared herself to every one, and was
followed to her grave by a large con
course of soriowlng friends and rela,
tiyes, She was the mother of onr wnr-

and besides hin, leaves two other sons
and two daughters. The COURIER eX
tends it's sympathy to the bereayed rel

The influx of cotton has kinder" held
up Of late, due, we suppose, to the fact
that the bulk of the crop has been llar-
vested, ginned and marketed. Since
the election the price has been steadily
on the increase, and as II consequence
those farmers who held back their crop
until the market advanced are now re-
joicing, while those who hnrIIedly dls-
posed of their crop for fear the market
would tumble still lower, are now men
tally kicking themselves for their toe
hasty move.

1t is the custom with many shows to
cut the night performance--tllat is, omit
many of the acts, in order to get through
early and hasten the tearing down and
departure for the next town. The great
Wallace show guarantees never to 10
this. Mr. Wallace is IL most consclen-
tious Snowman; he asserts that money
received ut night is worth as much on
the dollar as the day money, and that
his patrons arc entitled to just as much
for it he maintains that he has no right
to give them any less. Plenty OF men
are employed to tear down rapidly
enough when the show is out, without
having to pirl the canvas down on the
heads of the spectators. At Opelousas,
