How to Vote.

At the election next Tuesday
the Commissioners at each pre-
cint will be provided with seve-
raj cards giving instructions te
the voters just how to cast his
ballet. The voter should care
fully read these instructions be-
fore he asks fer his ticket.
The ballet will contain the
names of all candidates of every
political party. Those nomina-
ted by each party will appear in
a column headed by the name of
that party. In order to vote a
straight party ticket, just stamp
the emblem at the head
of the column of your
choice. This votes the full tick
ct. After this is done, if you de-
sire to vote on the proposed con-
stltutional amendment stamp the
blank square space opposite the
word "Fer," or Against just
as you prefer.
If yeu desire to vote a straight
party ticket, do not stamp the
blank space opposite the name of
any candidate in another column
for this might vitiate your ballot
entire. The law is not plain on
that point, however.
If you want to vote for candi-
dates in any tive or more columns
de not stamp the emblem at the
top of any ticket but simply
stamp blank square place opposite
the name Of each candidate for
whom yeu desire to Sete. This
blank space viii be a quarter of
an inch square, and will be OPP
pesite every name on the ticket.
Every voter will be allowed three
minutes in the booth to prepare
his ballot. If he spoils a ticket
he can deliver it to the commits
sieners and get new ticket and
have three minutes more in which
to fix it.
If the voter will consider the
points given above and carefully
read the instruction cards which
he can see at the precinct, he
will find no trouble in casting
his ballot as he desires. It is the
duty OF the Commissioners to
prepare the ballot of any voter
who is prevented from doing so
by physical disability, upon his
request.

Admiral Deyey has rescinded
his decision not to become a can
didate for the presidency and is
at the service of his ceunrymen.
The admiral does not state to
what party he belongs, but that
does not matter. He will not be
president. He will find a tougher
set to deal with when he goes up
against the politicians than he
did when he fought the Spaniards
His record as a naval
officer will not call for much
against the intrigues of slick pol
iticians. As a Republican he
cannot get the nomination, and
as Democrat he can be elected.
He had better be satisfied with the
honers he has than even attempt
to win others by leapiRg into the
cesspool of politics Mansfield

In several Of the battles fought
in South Africa in which the Brit
ish were whipped the the cause
Of the disasters is laid to the
stampeding of the mules used for
transportation purposes. The
animals are from the South and
we protest against the charge.
The mule is not easily frightened,
and if his master will do the right
thing by him he will stand fast.
Doubtless the disasters can be
attributed more to the stampeding
of the soldiers than to the fright
Of the mules.-Mansfeld Journal.

To Who 1t May Concern.

Subscriptions amounting to
several hundred dollars are due
this office. The amounts are
small and the debtors are scat
tered throughout the parish. If
we have to call on each individ-
ual to make collections we will be
forced to travel a much larger
number of miles than we care to.
The business men of this and
neighboring towns have told us
that they made good collections
this winter. What good reason
is there for us not being able to
say as much ? Is it because we
have been more lenient than
they? Or is it because our bills
are SO small in individual cases
that they are overlooked by the
subscribers in their annual settle
ments =? The business conditions
of the country are such that we
are in a measure forced to trust
to the honesty of our subscri-
bers and in many instance our
confidence in human nature has
been sorely tried. Those Of our
subscribers living at a distance
from Opelousas and have not a
convenient way of sending us
money, can buy postofice orders
and deduct the cost of the same
from the sum due us. This is a
fair proposition, and we have an
abiding hope that it will be taken
advantage of by those owing US.
