AWAITING THE VERDICT.

The issues between the different
candidates for Congress from this
district have been made up, and
there is little for the three candi-
dates for Congress to now do, but
argue the case and submit their
claims to the people, that their ver-
dict may be rendered.
Mr.. Ogden asks a reelection has-
ed upon his record in Congress du-
ring the past FIVE years, but his
opponent, Mr.. Breazeale, COM
pletely knocks the bottom out of
MIR. Ogden's pretensions, by show
inc THAT the gentleman has made
no record since he has represented
this district, and hence is standing
on thin air with nothing to support
him. The gentleman from Match
itoches repudiates, with scorn and
Indignation, the allegation that
Mr.. Ogden has made any record
except as a distributor Of garden
seed, and that even this laborious,
though harmless and useless duty,
was performed by a clerk paid by
the government. Hence, Mr.. Og-
den seems to be out of the race.
as he took his stand on something
that wasn't there.
However,, Mr.. Breazeale seems
to have made out complete case
against Mr.. Ogden, and left him
not a prop upon which to rest his
weary person. The facts are that
Mr.. Breazeale is In no better fix
himself, for with a great flourish
of trumpets he takes bis stand up
on HIS record in the late Constitu-
tional Convention, and if Mr.. Og-
den will look at HIS record lust q
little, he will find that his own
record in Congress is exactly like
that of Mr.. Breazeale in the Con-
vention, not a blank space, or pure
and nnde6led nothing like MIR.
|Ogden's, but Mr.. Breazoale's rec
ord is simply a blur anda blemish,
a besplotched and bespattered spot
upon the minutes Of the Conven-
ton. 1t is simply worse than
nothing, because it disGgures the
appearance OF the record. We
lind that in the calendar resolu-
tlons, that he introduced an ordi-
nance relative to granting women
right of suffrage. This was blur
red out by the Convention and
left his record just equal to Og-
den's in Congress-nothing. Then
he offered another resolution ask
ing Miss Florence Huberwaid to
address the Convention on Wo-
mans Suffrage, but this was nix.
and perhaps did not give him rep
'utation enough to hold up a mon
key, let alone for man Of suffi-

POpuIiSt Massmeeting.

About one hundred representa-
tive Populists assembled in the
Courthouse last Saturday, and al
II o'clock the house was called tc
order with H. L. Brian Ch., and
Frank Vallery, Secretary. The
chairman explained the objects OF
the meeting to elect delegates tc
the Railroad Commission and
Congressional conventions, and to
explain the registration and elec-
tion laws, and induce the voters to
take advantage thereof. After au-
thorizing the chairman to appoint
delegates and discussing the regis
tration laws at some length, the
chairman introduced the Hon. T.
j. Guice of DeSoto, who is one of
the pioneers of reform in Louisi-
lana, and who more than all others
has been abused by the opposition
press of the State. Mr.. Guice
was unwell-hardlY able to at
tempt q speech, but speeches re-
quire little effort on his part, and
he ably entertained his apprecia-
tive audience for about 3-quarters
of an hour, and wound up amid
much applause from the seasoned
reforme"s present,
Hon. B. w. Bailey had promis-
ed speech, but for some unknown
reason did mot attend. Capt. B.
w. Marston had been invited, and
his regrets are shown in his letter
published elsewhere.
After a few more remarks by
the chairman the meeting adjourn
ed for dinner, and all who did not
bring their baskets were invited to
the homes of the local Populists,
or to the hotels where arrange
ments had been made for them.
The following appointment of
delegates was made; For the
Railroad Commission convention

Dear Sir i regret exceeding
ly that my absence in Arcadia pre-
vented me from getting your let
ter of the 2lst, else | would have
certainly met the Populists at
Natchitoches to-day, and have Civ
en- them my views upon the poIiti-
cal situation and especially the
Railroad Commission. / am in
full accord with the Populist party
in its demand for the government
ownership of railroads and tele-
graph lines. AS | told them in
the speech | delivered in Arcadia
yesterday, it was only q question
as to whether the government
would own the railroads or the
railroads own the government. 1t
appears to me, / blush to say, that
the Democratic steering commit
tees are working in the interest of
the railroads in calling Democratic
conventions to nominate Commits
sioners in which the negro in the
''black" parishes will have, from a
basis of population the same rep
resentation the whites will have in
the "white" parishes. I cannot
stomach such Democracy, and have
raised the banner Of revolt, and
like Bryan in his Jackson, Miss,
speech. go help me God, l will
not follow such democracy" |
think the time has come for inde-
pendent men to stand together, as
the Democrats and Populists of
Nebraska are doing, to whip out
the oligarchies and arristocracies
which would run the conventions
OF the Democratic party with mon
ey, money, money, and negro rep
resentation upon basis of popu-
lation.
Very truly yours,

African Cotton,

Many of our farmers, no doubt,
remember tehaye read in the news.
papers, the description of the new
cotton known us "Jackson's Afri.
can himbfess Cotton.0
Experiments with this cotton
have been made this year in the
parishes of Lafayette and st. Mar
tin. In the latter place the Editor
of The Lafayette Advertiser has
three acres under cultivation and
DIR. I. b, Hopkins has four acres
at Lafayette. Until now the fields
of this cotton have evoked the ut
most admiration from the farmers,
and persons competent to judge do
predict that the cotton will yield
at least two bales to the acre with
out the aid of a fertilizer.
During the past year the Editor
Of The Lafayette Advertiser had
sold q certain number Of small
packages of this seed and now he
is in daily receipt Of encouraging
reports from those who planted it,
and these reports he publishes in
his newspaper for the information
Of the public. Considering the
great advantage of the African
cotton over the ordinary varieties,
it would seem advisable for our
own people to interest themselves
in the planting Of the special seed,
aud so keep up with their neigh
bors. The lint of this particular
cotton is known to be the finest on
the market, and certificates attest
ing this fact can be furnished by
Editor Van der Cruyssen, Of The
Lafayette Advertiser, to all who
will apply.
This seed will be- offered for sale
in limited quantity and orders will
he filed in the rotation received.
First come. first served. Only one
responsible agent will be appoint
ed in each parish and the most rig
ID precautions will betaken to pre-
vent fraud by selling spurious seed.
All seed will be shipped DIRECT to
buyers, up0n the order of the agent,
by the Editor Of The Lafayette
Advertiser.
The seed in question will have
the preference over all "new seedn
that may make their appearance,
as experiments have demonstrated
beyond doubt thlt this cotton is
now we'll adapted to this latitude.
Applications for agency must be
made to the Editor OF The Lafay-
cite Advertiser, Lafayette, La. !.
and applicants must send good ref
efenCes.
The editor of The Advertiser re-
fers to the following persons as to
his good faith in the handling Of
the seed:

ayette, La.

tional Bank, Lafayette, La.
