energetically and faithfully to estab-
lish a first-class Fair for the capital
city. The exhibition building will be
well filed with interesting things from
different parts of the country.
The Association claims that the
racing department will be very fine
and a large amount Of live stock is
billed for the occasion. The Associa-
ton have secured many costly exhibi-
tons to be given free on the grounds
for the pleasure Of the people. The
Fair will have its midway with all its
oriental features.
The exhibitions will begin with a
grand trades display comprising
about twenty or thirty floats beauti-
fully decorated. Also a flower pa
rade-something that.is beautiful and
quite novel in this locality. Excur-
sion rates by boat and rail have been
arranged for the occasion, and all
those who are able to see the first of
the grand annual fairs that are to be
held at the Louisiana State Capital
should visit the flower city on the gala
days December 9th to 18th inclusive.

self an accomplice in adventures
which viii cause the total ruin of
Spain. And for what purpose? To

that Spain withdraws from Cuba, and

is but little doubt that the treaty vii

"The negroes in the South says
the Minneapolis Tribune, "can not
stand against the whites when it comes
to a question Of physical force. They
may out vote the whites in some
States or localities, but in time their
victories will surely be snatched away
from them by the shotgun or rifle.
Their only safety lies in abandoning
the race issue and dividing in politics,
as they naturally would if there were
not two separate races living side by
side"

Deep Well Success.

Great interest was manifest. last
summer in the deep well put down on
the farm of DR.. G.. w. Remage, near
Jennings, and we take pleasure in re-
publishing from the Times the results,
which were highly satisfactory, even
though the well was not finished until
after the irrigating season was adj
vanced. E~ighty-fiye acres of rice
was planted on the farm. OF this
amount, 40 acres was very late and is
only partly harvested yet. The bulk
of the crop has been threshed and will
yield 600 sacks. Over $1,000 worth
of rice has already been sold and
there is fully $1,000 worth on hand.
DR.. Remage is well satisfied with the
results, and he may well be, for with
out the deep well the IS acres of rice
would not have yielded a sack of
grain.
Now that the well, engine and pump
are complete, the future expense will
be only nominal. The well can easily
care for so acres of rice. The cost
for gasoline per "a hours operation of
tae engine is $3.50, much less than
the expense for wood. Allowing
literally for all expenses and the in
vestment, the cost of irrigating by
this method is no more than rent
the canal system.
