Already the Division of the Railway Mail

build an annex to the Postoffice Oh the
reservation just south of the building The
reservation in question belongs to the
United States. II is situated between
Tenth Street and Louisiana Avenue and
Twelfth Street and Ohio Avenue and B

is used by the farmers as a market place
while the section between Eleventh and

hA nagemcnt brought about a split,
with the result that the boltiug fac

organization elected Hon. S. NJ.

there were faults of omission and

the heat of passion and tile rush of
public exigcncies, men do and say
many things lnwise and lamentab3e.
And in this case anything which
brings about a split in the solid
ranks of the Democracy of, this dis,
frlct is a misfortune, and the peo-
pIc of West Feliciana will NIT Be
slow tOrecOgnize the fact. Gratifcd
and proud as they MAY be that one
OF their gallant young sons was

dard-bearer, yet they must not shut
their eyes to the plain truth that
