I Stocks-Many stocks gained about a
point to-day and the market left off
strong with a good buying movement
in progress. Perhaps the most potent
influence on sentiment was the gov
ernment's foreign trade statement,
showing exports for November of near
ly $130 100000 which was nearly $751;
900, 900 in excess Of Imports, and the
excess of imports for the five months
of the fiscal year were also enormous,
the sum of s243, 0o0, 5000. Then, too,
the strength of the grain markets to-
day seemed to indicate continuance
in the demand of our product. Alter
mating firmness and weakness rendered
the market irregular during the fore
noon. Subsequently the market shook
off its hesitancy and became buoyant
on reports that the Vanderbilt interest
had purchased the Chicago & Alton with
a view to merging it with the Michi-
gan Central system. Michigan Central
Immediately rose paints and Chicago

official denied that such a deal had
been consummated. This, however,
failed to affect the Vanderbilt stocks,
which continued upward to the close,
at about the best prices. They sus-
tanned strength of the securities sup
posed to be interested in the rumored
deal aroused some comment among the
traders. Lake Shore dropped points
on one sale. Sugar was very irregular
and moved within radius of 2 points,
closing with a gain of IL. Denver
preferred and Central Pacific were
strong. Some Of the usually dormant
stocks received some attention. Fed
eral Steel shares were buoyant, the
common rising 21a.
Activity diminished somewhat in
the bond market and profit taking ar
rested the improvement in some secur-
tiles. The general tendency, however,
was decidedly upward. Total sales,

buying from the continent and prov

Home Again.

The Lafayette boys who were
members of Battery G, Louisiana
Artillery, will return home to-day
or tomorrow as they have been
finally mustered out. The boys
will doubtless be glad to be released
from their military duties to become
once more free American citizens.
During the time of their service they
Jared well as they have been we'll
treated by the government. They
enlisted to go to the front when their
services were needed. If they
were not sent beyond the borders of
their own State it was no fault of
theirs. Fortunately hostlities
ceased before it became necessary
to send them where they would
have been exposed to the hasdships
and dangers of war. Still they vol
unteered to go wherever ordered.
In doing SO they displayed an I'M
selfish devotion to duty and showed
in a practical way that they were
willing to do ell that good citizen
can do for his country. The Gazette
extends a hearty welcome to the
boys and wishes them all a full
measure of prosperity and happiness.
They have done good act which
we are confident they will never
have cause to regret.

that large proportion of our pop
ulation are in favor of high license
as means of restricting the liquor
traffic. Among the several tenn
perance societies note with
pleasure the Catholic Knights of
America, St. Johns Branch, No.
7o2, an organization which is COM
posed of most exemplary young
men Of Christian faith, banded for
mutual, moral, and spiritual eleva-
ton. In an address delivered not
long since, Prof. r. H. Broussard,
vice-president Of this society, de-
nounced the saloons as ''Nens Of mi
qu'ky," thus unequivocally pro-
claiming to the world not only his
own personal convictions on the
question, but also defining the
position of the organization. Let
every good Catholic Knight echo
and re-echo the words OF Prof.
Broussard- "aeuS Of fncqufLy,"
"aens Of iuiqutIy"-until these
abominable pest holes are banished
from the face Of Christian civiliza-
ton, and shall no longer exhale
their foul and poisonous fumes in
the nostrils Of decent community.

ment has never succeeded and new
er will succeed: and, in the law Of
nature, as the stronger is the su-
perior of the weaker, the despotic
branch Of the country must inevita-
bly, absorb the Republican branch,
thus the acquisition Of the PHILIPPINES
means the final destruction of our
Constitution and free institutions.
Hence, we say the present is
SPANS opportunity to signalize her
hatred Of free institutions and her
devotion to despotism; for just as
certain as this expansionist scheme,
apply term ed imperialism, is carried
out the beginning of the end will
have set in; our government in that
case must inevitably be dominated
BY the military. Soldiers with or
without merit, will become an in
solent aristocracv, and the scions
of miiiionaires who have acquired
their wealth by the robbery Of the
people through protective tariffs
and subsidies for.the enrichment OF
q class will seek military titles, and
the country will be governed and
drnineered over by a mingled aris-
tocracy of vulgar wealth and inso-
lent soldiers. From the govern
lnent of soldiers and plutOcrats may
G oI preserve us.

THE ELECTION.
The Lightest Vote Ever POlled in
The Parish.

The town of Lafayette has earned
the unenviable distinction Of being
the only precinct in the third con-
gressional district that gave a Re-
publican majority at the election
held last Tuesday. There is no
doubt that this town has Demo-
cratic majority. 1t may not be as
large as we would like to see it, but
it is always large enough when prop
erly marshaled under active leader
ship, to keep ssour friends, the en-
envy" in hopeless, though bell1g-
erent minority. The unexpected
majority of Candidate Fontelieu,
who carried this poll by the slim
vote of three, is attributable to the
apathy which prevailed among the
Democrats, who knew that the De-
mocracy had no serious opposition,
while the Republicans worked tooth
and toe-nail for their ticket. Not
that the Republicans expected to
land their man, but the leader of
the local forces Of the 6. o. P.
deemed it advisable to make a show
OF strength at this particular time
and the results last Tuesday prove
that he effectively exerted himself
in that direction.
The vote throughout the parish
was very light, but the maj ority for
the Democratic candidates at the
various polls shows that this old
stronghold of Jeffersonian principles
is not yet ready to be captured by
the Republicans, whether led by
old-timers or lily whites.
The following is the vote at the
different precincts:
