of Naval nominations which would

ahead of Rear Admiral Schley,
and of the public calling down at
Minneapolis Of Secretary Long,
when he attempted to gloriiy Samp-
son for what Schley did, it is an
nounced upon seemingly good au-
thority that the attempt to jump
Sampson over Schley's head is to
be asai:. made by MIR. Mckinley
as soon as Congress meets. The
unjust attitude OF the administra-
ton towards Admiral Schley has
so far only added to that gallant
officers reputation, and it is per-
sisted in, many believe that it will
result in giving Schley the second
place Oll HCNl ySdi bStilOSie e'I'N

than that have happened. 1t may
be said that Schley is not DEM
ocrat, but that is no reason against
! it. Gen. Grant was not a repub-
lican and he was nominated and
elected President by that party.

ticn there aIises ly what autho'ity
and under what law The registration
office is now open. Act 1919 of 1898,
the present registration law went intd
effect january 1st, 1899.
There can be no legal registry in
Louisiana except in accordance with
the provisions of this act. If then
only registered voters are allowed to
participate in the primaries, they must
be registered in accordance with this
law.
Section 81 declares that "no person
should be permitted to register within
80 days of any election held in his
State"
According TO the official announce
ment, the registration Office stands
open until Dec. 2Olh, 1899. II this
law is to be respected the primaries
can not be held until the latter part Ct
January, 1900. If held after Jan'y.
lst, 1900, new registration will be
necessary. It appears, however, that
they are strictly bound by such por'

not enjoyed good nights sleep
since she has been in Jail.

The Industrial School

Inregard to the Industrial School
for which the people of this town
and parish are striving, it is well
to keep the situation in hand
Doubtless the matter will be de-
cided in the course of the next two
or three months, and hence 1t be-
hooves us not to leave undone any
thing that might bring to the no.
tice of the Board of Trustees, or
impress upon them, the very su-
perior and substantial advantages
offered by this place for the ioca-
ton of this school.
1t is unquestionably true that
Lafayette is the geographical center
of Southwest Louisiana; it is equal
ly true that it is the center OF pop
ulation of the same area, and by
reason of this central location and
its railroad facilities, it can be more
conveniently and quickly reached
by a larger number of people, than
can any other point between New
Orleans and Lake Charles on the
one hand, or New Orleans and
alexandria upon the other.
In point of healthfulness ertillty
and adaptibility Of soil to diverse
farming we are safe.
But the people do not propose
to stand upon these natural advan-
tages, or adventurous circumstan-
ces, alone, to secure the location
of the school at this point. They
will offer other inducements, for the
Board of Trustees to consider; they
are wide awake to the necessity
and importance of achieving what
, we believe now to be our common
/ purpose. With this object in view
5 an important meeting of the Busi
t ness Mems Association was hele
: on Monday night last; there wa'
: good attendance and every bod,
e showed the livcliest interest in tn
j work. Defnitive propositions 10
: the advancement of the cause wer
If put in motion, which are quite Ger
tain to produce important result
in the near future. The Location
e of this school among us, is tn
C, paramount issue before the people
'r and we are sure there exists Il
r, this parish and town that degre
-, cf patriotism and progresslvenes
- ;, which will subordinate every othf
y. consideration. There should b
&c among us no mind OF heart wit
IL any other thought or feeling tha
rs. that this great and endowing goo
should at all cost be located amor
us, and we believe--there a
none.
