From acopy of the Monroe Bulletin
justto hand we see the Pops OF Grant
parish are awake in great
biginch-lorg capital letters, in flaring
head lines, telling about the meeting
of the Populist Executive committee
which met in this parish a little over
a amonth ago, on the 4th of November
last. Our Populist friends must now
proceed to hump themselves, because,
according to Judge Gunby, the eyes
OF the nation are upon them, and he
says: "The Grant parish Populists
are working while others sulk and de-
spair. The Bulletin also
thanks the good Populists of Grant
for making us their official organ, in
which capacity we are delightedly
honored in serving them"

1 In our announcement column will
be found the name OF Mr.. H. p. Long,
OF Winn parish, who is an independ-
ent candidate for Senator from the
9th district, composed of the parish
es of Grant. Winn and Caldwell. He
says he is d Democrat, and has al.
ways cast in his lot with that party,
but that in this case he thinks that
good government is to be preferred
before party, and Therefore he an
nounces himself as an independent
candidate.
He is burner and stock raiser, So
Der, frugal and Industrious, man
about forty years of age, and has liv-
ed in Winn parish nearly all OF his
life. In announcing his candidacy his
home paper has this to say of him:
He believes in free silver, is oppos-
ed to expansion by the bayonet, but
in favor of it where the people sought
to be annexed are in favor themselves
of annexation. Heis opposed to Nc
Kinley's ideas OF military despot-
ism. He is opposed to corporatecon-
troland management of thefunctions
OF the government, firm believer in
q better public shOOl system and a
better government. Mr.. Long says
if heis elected he will vote as be shoots,
and we believe be will do IT,. Mr..
Long, if elected will make the people
a good representative"

Moran and French have won their pro-
motions by merit. The sanitary condi-
ton of the cities in the islands is very
bad and will require considerable work.
At present there is a shortage on sur
geons, but DR.. Adams and the others
are working hard and doing the best
they can under adverse circumstances.
The sergeant was attacked by typhoid
fever at the close of the hard fighting,
and after three or four weeks of ILL
ness was given sick furlough, return
ing to this country on the transport
Morgan City.
Yesterday Sergeant f. X Cheadle of
Company l was also in the city and
talked freely of his experiences in the
Philippine islands and of the outlook
there. He is an ardent expansionist,
but believes that it will require 10000
men to subdue the islands, 10000 for
garrison duty and 10000 to chase the
niggers about and capture or kill them.
He is very proud of the Montana regi-
ment, for he says that during the
thickest of the fighting and before he
was taken ill the Montana regiment had
larger percentage of men on the
fighting line than any of the others.
He believes that the hearts of the in
surgents are broken and that the war
will soon be concluded. More than
that, the common soldiers have never
were led by their superiors,' and when
the next dry season arrives there will
be no more war. He says: THE insur-
gent forces before 1 left were scat
tered into bands of 100 to 1900 each,
and they were never able to make a
stand against our men, who each made
a fight knowing that they would win
The criticisms of General Otis are en-
tirely uncalled for. He has been very
careful of his men and has done all he
could for them in every way. He has
the situation well in hand, and l was
surprised when l landed in San Fran
cisco to learn of the stories that were
being told of retreats by our men. we
never retreated and never gave up any
position it was intended we should
hold. I think that 10000 will be suffi-
cient to end the war, 10000 for garri-
son and 10000 to use as flying column
to dispose of the insurgents should they
make a stand anywhere. At the be-
ginning of the trouble we had about
$4,000 effective men, yet we whipped
and utterly demoraliZed an insulgent
force conservatively estimated at
10000
This afternoon he stated that he did
not believe Capt. John Moran had ac-
cepted a captaincy in the 37th regiment.
He said further that Moran had aged
rapidly in the past year.
