nassee were in the city council. The
council consisted OF fo,lr members in
those days, TWO from the First and two
from the Second ward. the Third ward
not having been established. What did
Mr.. Stirling and Mr.. Manassee do? They
didn't do n thing but tie the hands Of
the mayor and refuse to confirm any OF
his appointments, holding Larry Fee in
as marshal. When n. F. Spicer was
mayor and A. Popp, James Vine and
George Berner were members of the city
council. what did the democratic council
then do? Simply held up the mayor for
two years and tied him hand and foot;
that was all. But these are other days. /

The meeting of the Louisiana
Press Association held in New Or
leans, few days ago, was the less
successful, in attendance, of any
held up to this day.
The next meeting of the Louisi-
ana Press, will probably be held
in Eureka Springs, Ark, in May
next.
The meeting of the Western
Editorial Federation was also a
failure, and the meeting was ad-
journed to meet in Omaha, Neb.,
just about the opening of the
Expositson in the central city of
the mining regions.
The officers of the Louisiana

last meeting are: L. E. Bently,

Filled VACANCIES.
Speaker Reed Names Members of Com

Speaker Reed Names Members of Com
 mittees Where Places Were Void.
 Washington, Jan. 12.-Speaker Reed, just before the adjournment today, filled the vacancies on the committee on rules and on the committee on ways and means caused by the death of the late Mir Crisp, of Georgia.
 Several gentlemen. who desired an ap- pointment to the ways and means com mittee have exerted considerable in- fluence upon the speaker to secure the office, and it was thought for time that 1t would be given to MT. Newlands, or Nevada, who was unusually well in dorsed. The speaker, however, gave the place to MT. Boatner of Louisiana, whose seat was declared vancant at the last session of congress and who, since his re- election to fill out the remainder of the present term, has been without com mittee assignment. The vacancy on the rules committee was filled by the ap- pointment of MT. Bailey, of Texas. MT. Boatner is now regarded as one Of the ablest lawyers in the house and a tire less and indefatigable committee worker. MT Bailey is one of the youngest mem bers of the house, although his services of six consecutive years, with re-elec- ton to the next congress, makes him something of a veteran in point of experi- ence.
 MT. Stokes, of South Carolina, who. like MT. Boatner, was unSeated last year, was assigned to the committee on agrl- culture and public buildings and grounds. MT Charles Crisp, the son of the late Speaker Crisp who was elected last month to serve out the remainder Of his fathers term, was assigned to the post office and mileage committees.

 MT. McEwan said that with the excep- tion of one section this was the same bill that had been defeated in the house Dec. 10. but he made no point of order on that ground and the bill was passed by ris- ing vote--ages 59, nays 26.
 A resolution. providing for the payment of the expense of the last illness and funeral of ex-Speaker Crisp, amounting to $1 .4S0, was passed.
 A bill was passed providing for bridge over the Red river at Alexandria, La, by the Kansas City, Watkins and Gulf Rail- way company, and at o'clock the house adjourned until tomorrow.

TRAIN WRECKERS.

A terrible wreck occurred on the
Birmingham Mineral road Sunday
night last, in which something like
thirty lives were lost and as many
injured.
The train vas going over the Ca
haba bridge, ITO feet high, when il
struck rail from which the spikes
had been removed falling into the
abyss below, where 1t and that part
OF the crew which was unable to re-
lease itself was burned 10 ashes.
The opinion Of expert engineers is
unanimous in the belief that the rail
had been removed, as the spikes were
found whole instead Of bent and
broken as would have been the case
had the train simply left the track.
The wreck was a horrible one, and
no punishment severe enough can be
invented to torture the wreckcrs
should they be apprebended.
Train wrecking is getting altogeth-
er too frequent for the safety and
comfort Of a thoroughly travelling
public like ours. Something must
be done TO reduce it, and to this end
every one concerned should labor
unremittingly.
Never before has the like of our
present day railroad horrors been
Witnessed. Even In the paImy days
of train robbing there is no parallel
crime recorded. The bandits would
quietly stop train, rob it Of its
possessions, and then let 1t go; but
now desperate means are cnployed,
causing the loss of life as well as of
property,
Every means should be used TO
capture the fiends Of Sunday night,
and then visit such punishment ON
them as will make their agony and
groans warning to others.

A REPUBLICAN, SUGGESTED.

The Gulf Port Southwark sees
remedy in the Republican ranks.
1t says:
Is it not enough to make a Mis-
sissippian feel proud of himself
to read the daily papers of the de
legations sent by cities of this
state, and the delegates named by
the governor attending "big meet
ings" at Washington to secure
appropriations for other states,
whilC our own sea coast is left
out in the cold. Oh, for the day
when the gulf coast of Mississip-
pi will open its eyes enoungh to
send a straight-out republican to
congress, then the coast will be
recognized, for it seems not till
then need we expect any notice

decision of its own rulers without
consulting foreign authority. Es-
pecially should the United States be
so, having struggled from It's infancy
up without any means OF settling its
disputes except through the channels
OF war. The United States has held
its own against the world, and En-
gland particularly, since the forma-
tion Of its government, and now
that IL ~ in better position than
ever before to maintain its rights we
do not see why this proposed treaty
OF arbitration should be the carrier
of any new joy to our hearts.
Nations are like individuals. In

DEMOCRACY PASSING
AWAY.

BY far the most serious fact which
confronts the people of this govern
ment today is the passing away Of
the democratic party. 1t is an ivre-
vocable and lmmutable law Of nature
that everything must perish. Plan
cts aud nations as we'll as man are
engulfed in the infinite sea Of dlsso-
luton. Political parties are but SER
wants of the moment. They have
no allotted time. Nature deals rough
ly with them, often assimilating them
betwixt the rising and setting OF q
sun. A republic, particularly an
enlightened republic, is liable to give
birth 10 several parties in a short pc
riod Of time. They are simply an
inspiration or result Of condition.
Nullify the condition and you render
the party or parties impotent.
The democratic party is or rather
was the product OF q condition, and
while the condition has been aug
mented instead of obliterated, there
is every indication to crystalline the
belief that democracy is in its death
throes. This ia not q case OF having
exhausted the forces of nature, or
Its purpose, but a clear case Of assas-
sinationl The democratic party was
the product of honesty, of desi,.,,,- =
| -, .,,atiu. sufrn n 4stsire U
assslss~lde ntghes. moral development
possible, of hope that 1t would ul.
timately lead TO a happy federation
OF local and national antagonistl,
forces. This was the vision OF th,
founders Of democracy. But greed
and avarlce have prevented the con
sumetion OF it. On every occasion
the party has been debauched and 1t,
machinery rendered powcrless, con
sequentIy defeating its purpose.
| And now the most convincing ar
gument that democracy has passed
away is the general demand from IL,
rank for government protection
From the rice and cane fields of Loui,
lslana, the cattle and sheep plains Of
Texas, mineral regions of Alabama
and Tennessee, pine forests of Mis-
sissippi and intoxicapt Kentuck,
comes the appeal for protection
Protection is form Of taxation q:
detestable to democracy as is the
idea of tyranny. 1t is a creature OF
the republican party and its manipu.
lators would bury the people beneath
every conceivable form Of oppression
that their designs may not be frus-
trated. From the sweat of poverty
protection has made richer the rich
and from the brow.of labor it has
drained the blood of prosperity.
Where is democracy? Blush, ye
blades Of grass, while we tell you
that its survivors are identified In
the deyillish work Of destruction
The excuse given by the assassi-
nators of the party Is that the north
has protection and therefore the south
must have it, too. But democrac :
never said that one wrong could
justify another wrong. On the con-
trary. 1t was lts.duty TO oppose every
approach Of that nefarious measure.
The demand for protection by the
south has given the party Of the pee
pie its death blow.
And now, II we are TO embrace the
protective doctrine Of repubicanism,
we may as well embrace the thing
in toto.
