The large nugget Of Klondike gold

There had been a shower in the fore

the rivulets pouring over and across II.
Jeff's tune was cut short as his eyes
fell upon a glittering yellow ball in the
road. JEFF was from Missouri. but had
lived I'm Montana long enough to dis

hat many yellow things were all right
so he picked up the shining nugget. Its
weight satisfied him that there was

took his prize home to his parents and
told his story. and his venerable father
said. "Jeffy. my son. you needn't look

LEGAL HOLIDAYS.

1t has been frequently complain
ed of, in some quarters. that we
have too many legal holidays in
Louisiana.
Just why this fault is found, we
have never been able to UNDER
stand; for the main reason, that
they have never, to any marked
extent. interfered with business
In fact, to all intents and purpos-
es nearly, we have only one holi-
day that is observed, and one that
is partially SO. The first is Sum
days: during which business is
suspend; and Christmas, when it
only partially SO.
Aside from these, no attention
whatever is paid to legal holidays
except by the banks and Courts.
But even in the latter class, the
temples of justices of the peace
are open for business. Because
the law now provides that all con-
servatory writs may be issued and
executed on legal holiday.
Business houses and all kinds Of
industry are in full blast on these
days, just the same as if the law
did not declare each to be q dies
non. No attention whatever, other
than the instances mentioned, is
paid to then. Hence the COM
plants all fall.

JUSTICE L. B. WATKINS,

There will soon be vacancy on
the Supreme Bench of our State.
This will be caused by the the ex-
piration of the term held by Asso-
ciate Justice L. B. Watkins.
The appointment of Judge Wat
kins' successor is the province of
Governor Foster. The right is ex-
ciusively that Of the Executive.
The Progress fully appreciates
this. But the Supreme Bench is
body that every resident of the
State, and every one who has a
business interest in her borders,
are interested in. This body is the
tribunal of last resort in dealing
with the lives and liberties of the
individuals, as we'll as their civil
rights and business affairs. Hence
