Fancy, Pure, Superb, Prompt.

The best, is always the cheapest,
the freshest ALWAYS the most salts
factory. This has been our opin-
ion in the grocery business and we
find that in conducting our bust
ness on this line, we have never
failed to please our customers.
Ouraim has been to supply the pub
lie demand with the freshest and
choicest goods at the most reason
able prices. We make it q practice
to keep well in front with al the
delicacies and choicest bits Of cdi-
bles, and cater to the palate and
the demand. We never turn down
an order. If it is in the market,
our customers may have it. Moth
ing is too good for our customers.
Our sole aim is to please; our ut
most aim is to meet the public de-
sire. By these means we have
placed ourselves in the front ranks
of the retail and fancy grocery
men OF Shreveport and still we are
not satisfied. We mean to make
ourselves THE RETAIL GROCERs of
Shreveport. If energy, fair deal
ing, best goods, lowest prices,
prompt delivery, free; can do this,
we will not miss our mark.

Good Cheer For Tobacco Farmers.


The '98 crop is now practically under
cover and the harvest has been favored
with satisfactory weather conditions
from start to finish. The crop mas
proven not only one of the largest in
acreage, but the heaviest IN growth the
state has ever produced. The '95 crop
was larger in acres, but it is doubtful if
it yielded as many pounds of cured leaf
as the present crop will do. If it we're
not for one or two heavy storms that
swept over the tobacco section, causing
damage by wind and hail in quite ex-
tensive areas, the crop might have been
she soundest ever harvested. A gratAfy-
ing feature of the season so far is the
exceptional curing weather that has pre-
vailed. The early fields that went into
the sheds three and four weeks ago are
now very nearly cured down to the stem.
The extreme warm weather during the
harvest brought the tobacco down very
fasG and assisted wonderfully in rapid
curing. The presence OF sufficient moist
ure in atmosphere also contributed to
the result. Samples of entirely cured
leaf of the new crop are being exhibited
that show remarkably fine light color,
thin and of the proper texture to make
good tobacco. The growers are delight
ed over the prospect of an unusual salts.

A CHApLAIN'S WAR TALK.

Rev. E. w. Trimm of the Third Wiscon-
sin Addresses the West Wisconsin
Conference on Porto Rico Campaign
An Eau Claire dispatch of the 18th
says the West Wisconsin Methodist
conference programme last night was
changed to admit an address by Chap
lain Edward Trimm OF the Third Wis
consip, who arrived from Porto Rico at
his home at Chippewa Falls few dave
ago. Chaplain Trimm had his audi
ence in tears and applauding by turns.
He said he knew many were hnxious to
know the condition of the boys in Porto
Rico, but he must be very careful to say
nothing against his superior officers. He
wished Co. E was here tonight, for they
were anxicusly hoping the regiment
would come home. Continuing, he said
that what broke the backbone of the
Second and Third Wisconsin regiments
was the hard work done at Charl. stop,
the terribly poor rations and the forced
marches which he pronou C d foolish
and unwise, and added: "This is all I
can say now, but when these straps
come off 1 will tell you more"
He said it was burning shame to
send the Third to Porto Rico 10 the
crowded transports.
The chaplain gave spirited account
of the battle of Coamo, on which occa-
sion he said he mounted horse, sought
the safest spot where Spanish bullets
would not reach him, and found that
spot to be with Gen. Wilson and his
staff. He described the capture of the
Spanish force and said no ona ever rode
faster than did he and Gen Wilson and
staff into Coamo after the conflict was
over and all was safe. The speaker
thanked God that hostilities stopped be-
fore an assault could be mace on Albion
ita pass where, he said, we might have
lost so per cent. of our men. Ia closing
he said LIE trusted the Third would come
home, and they ought to come home,
that they had been to the front and
done their full duty. He gave touching
descriptions of the death and burial of
the two men killed in battle. of the death
of John Kingston, Jr., and OF hospital
scenes.

The Omaha ExnnSifiOu-

When the worlds fair at Chicago
ceased to exist, it was supposed that we
should ne'er look upon it's like again.
However, the Trans Mississippi Extosi-
ton at Omaha has effectively reproduced
in similarity all of the buildings which
mads the White City so attractive in
1898.
1t does not now take weeks to wander
through grounds and structures and
then be compelled to go away with a
tumble Of ideas, for the Omaha Expo
sit.on people have profted by past
experience, and have so i,1proved the
arrangement of exhibits that no more
than two or three days of time need be
consumed in admiration and inspection
of the marvellous resources of the west,
collected together in the chief city of
Nebraska. Even the new Midway is a
reproduction of the far-famed Street of
All Nations of 1898, with many improve
ments upon the original. The electric
lighting of the bu ldings, grounds and
lagoon at night makes ascene of enchant-
ing beauty, alone worth travelling a
thousand miles to see. The means of
communication between the city and
the grounds are ample, and the distance
to be traYersed is short.
The ways of reaching Omaha a.e in
Vulnerable, but chief among them is
the direct Chicago and Omaha short
line of the Chicago, Milwaukee & st.
Paul railway, with its electric lighted,
vestibuled trains and dining car. Ex-
cursion tickets are on sale at every
coupon ticket Office in the United States
over the Chicago, Milwaukee and st.
Paul railway through Northern Illinois
and Central Iowa. Call on the agent
for further information.

MR.. La FOLLETTE'S ATTITUDE

MR.. La FOLLETTE'S ATTITUDE.
Friends of Robert M. LaFollette in
the state have received circular letter
from him urging them to continue to
fight within the party for the success
Of the reforms which were advocated
by the LaFollette supporters in the re-
cent ante convention campaign for the
governorship. Mr.. LaFollette asks his
friends to use all their influence "to
crush the political machine and to restore
the rights of the majority" Following
is copy of the letter, many of which
are evidently being sent out:
My Dear Friend: 1 write to you at this
time to express my lasting appreciation of
your valuable support in the contest waging
in this state for better government, and to
appeal to you to continue - use all your in
huence and all your power for the great
cause. No more patriotic duty ever enlisted
men in its service. BY a system of caucuses
and conventions having semblance of repre-
senting the majority, but manipulated by
chicanery and fraud-the minority is able to
control through the power of the machine.
This is not representative government To
overthrow this menace to a government of
the people, by the people and for the people"
Is the highest service we can render in our
time There can be no doubt of the final
result Temporary defeat may come but it
should make us the frmer and stronger in
our determination to destroy the political
machine, which threatens the very existence
of representative government. We have al
ready Inade great progress. Let us here and
now, on the field where we have both won
andlost. resolve to hold the ground recovered
and to continue our good work within the
party until we crush the political machine
and restore to the people the sacred rights of
the majority.
