The Colfax chronicle. [volume] (Colfax, Grant Parish, La.) 1877-1981, 1896-03-21

People travelling in the south,
says the Boston Herald, these days
are very much struck with the evil
dence of progress. It is not alone
in the seaport and island cities that
signs of enterprise abound. OBJ
scure country towns in States not
at all regarded as imbued with the
new spirit of the South are UNDER
going a process of Transformation
highly significant of the gradual
accretion OF that wealth whose In
Vulnerable little gains go to swell
the total of national prosperity.
The Southern farmer got more out
of the raise in cotton than is COM
monty supposed. The producers
of the crop of 1895 were for the
most part paid for their cotton at
prices higher than those now quot
ed in New York, and the crop, as
spectators have found out to their
cost, is not 80 short as it was esti-
mated. 6awmills never were SO
active throughout the south as
they are to-day and the thoughts
of the people never 30 much occu-
pied with projects of improvement.
But to the discriminating observer
the most satisfactory evidence Of
southern progress is found in the
growing respect for the restraints
Of law. Some recent barbarous
applications of lynch law to the
contrary Notwithstanding, justice
is more evenly, impartially and
strictly administered throughout
the south than it ever vas, and the
publicsentiment that can be evoked
in support of the law is much more
powerful and persuasive.

A BRILLIANT OPENING,
House & Hermann Formally Dedi-
cate Their New Building.

House 4 Hermann Formally Dedl-
cate Their New Building.
1t is rare that any one is accorded the
privilege Of shaking the hands Of twenty
five thousand OF his friends in a single
day, but fully that many people attended
the formal opening of House & Herrman's
new building yesterday and carried with
them their congratulations for this en-
terprising firm. 1t was one of the largest
gatherings of people that ever crossed the
threshold Of store to assist in it's dedi-
cation. From 2 o'clock in the afternoon un-
til nearly midnight steady stream of hu-
manity poured In at the great front doors
and mounted the broad stairways to the
fifth floor, where the souvenirs were being
distributed. The Marine Band, stationed on
the second floor, played during the recep-
ton hours. Everybody was delighted with
their welcome; everybody was pleased with
the floral display, many Of the pieces be-
Ing contributed by friends Of the firm. The
building itself, and the stock in it, were
the subject Of praising comment
1t is a handsome building, one of the
finest in Washington, and one of the larg-
est and best-constructed stores in the fur
niture trade in the United States. 1t was
planned and erected by Washington talent.
Mr.. Appleton P. Clark. jr.. was the archi-
gineer, and Samuel j. Prescott, the con-
tractor. The masonry and brick work We're
done by Zephania Jones; the iron work, by
George Whites Sons; tho painting and
work, by Royce & Marean; the elevators,
Of which there are two, by the Moore Will
Jams Company. Warren Beggs put in the
steam-heating plant; Charles Barrck did
the plumbing: Charles E. Hodgkins sup
piled the glass. and the area Of glass sur
face is probably larger in this building than
any other of its size in the city. The offices
were built by Jacob Germeroth.
A description Of the building has already
been published in The Star, and reference
made to- the slow-burning process feature
of the construction, which renders the
building practically proof from destruction
by fire. 1t is a novelty in building that is
indorsed by insurance men, and has many
precedents IN other cities but none here
1t is a matter worthy Of note that just
eleven years ago to the very day House
& Hermann embarked in business here
These who remember the modest beginning
then can hardly realize that in SO short a
time such marked success should crown
their efforts; but they chose the most di-
rect road to the peoples confidence, and
paved i. with sincerity and enterprise and
a fair and square business policy that made
the triumph Of yesterday an easy goal to
reach. The occasion gave House & Herr
mann an opportunity to sound public op;n-
ion, and they should feel. as they doubtless
are, gratified with the sentiment the pres
ence Of such vast throng expressed.
