Everything is quiet in political
circles in this State. \ great
deal may be going on behind the
scenes Of which the public will
not be Informed until such time
as the principal actors IN the
coming struggle see proper to
disclose their tactics. The cam
paign will be red hot from start
to finish if signs indicate any
thing.-Manstield Journal.
Yes. there is something going
on behind the scenes not only III
the State, but in every parish and
something that will astonish the
people. The principal actors are
now playing their hands behind
the curtain, and when it will rise
the whole machinery will be put
in motion for all it will be worth.
We can see through the curtain
that a big game is being played
everywhere, but as yet nothing
definite can be ascertained.-

Cotton Mills.

The New Orleans Picayune has
sent us a number Of pamphlet cop
les of letters published at different
dates in its columns, relating to
''Louisiana and Mississippi pros
perlty to be sought in Cotton
Mills"
1t is fcally useless for US to say
that they show careful and pa
tient research by the author. II.
IL. Hargrove, of the Picayune
editorial staff.
They contain a vast wealth Of in
formation on the subjects treated
of, and to those who will read
them carefully. cannot fail to in
spire effort in giving vitality to
the practical suggestions with
which his letters abound.
1t must be conceded that the
average information, of even our
most intellectual classes. is very
limited, and we do not think that
the opposition to fe,ritor1ol e.r-
pansion, which exists to some eX-
tent among the people, can be ex-
tended to the widest expansion
of the information conveyed by
Mr.. Hargrove's letters. He takes
very practical view of his sub
jects and brings under inspection
an array of statistics we'll worth
serious attention. We live in an
age of progress. and it is but duty
to ourselves as we'll as to poster
ity, to live and act up to the
spirit of the age. Much. re,y
much, of the wealth Of Louisiana
is now going, and has heretofore
gone, to the enriching of other
States which can easily be made
available for the enhancement of
our local prosperity.
1T requires no argument to
show that the immense profits
that foreign cities and States de-
rive from the manufacture Of our
raw material, might be realized
here; and that the money that
goes from us annually might, by
we'll directed enterprise, be kept
among us to fructify all our in
dustrial pursuits.
We have on hand a number Of
the pamphlets for free dlstrlbu-
ton, and request those who have
not received Il copy, to call at our
office and get one. We want
everyone to read and ponder the
facts and arguments. They will
abundantly reward any reader OF
them that will give them rehec-
ton. Our people are blind to
their best interests, and whilst
very many are too impecunious to
aid in the initiative of progressive
works, we have many among us
who are more fortunate. They
can by cooperation open up a
new chapter Of our possibilities:
add to their own wealth. and in
doing so relieve the distresses of
many of the struggling laboring
classes. There is no selhshness
in a proper spirit of progress in
the industrial avocations. Help
the poor and they will help the
capitalist. Again we say, come
and get the pamphlet on ''cotton
Mills and read it. 1t costs moth
ING and is valuable.
