In this announcement. Mr.. Simon

we may add, with some degree 81
qualification, says; al kindly ten
der to the public as one of my best
recommendation my record as such

So far ~ we can judge this gentle
man can readily allow his past record
to speak tor him during the last
four years he has served the public
OF the 10th judicial district conscein-
cionsly and we'll.
The number OF convictions in
proportion to the cases tried have
been large, aud in serious cases
he percentage of convictions is
very high. A service we'll perform
ed u always source Of qualification
to any one, hence we can easily Sc
why such q record as Mr.. Simon
has made during the past four years
should be the prmcipalplea on which

THE GOVERNORS VIEW.
What he Says About Our State.

What He Says About Our State.
The New York Times, of Sun
day, Dec. 81, '99, contained New
Year messages from the governors
Of various States. Among them
was the following from Louisiana:
Louisiana will enter the. year
1900 under very promising au-
spices. The state finances and
those of the municipalities, par
ishes, levee districts, ETC., are in
better condition than they have
been since 1860. The bonds and
other public obligations are con-
siderably above par. The interest
thereon is promptly met at matur-
ity, and the resources are ample to
maintain these obligations in their
actual sound condition. The levees
are higher and stronger than ever
before. The public schools are
more numerous, the attendance
greater, and the teachers better
trained and more efficient than any
previous period. The same may be
said of our universities, normal
school, industrial college, and
other higher educational institu-
tions.
At no time since 1860 have the
people manifested more interest in
the development Of the varied and
immense resources of the state
than now. There is progress in
all our agricultural industries.
Improved machinery, labor saving
implements, and intensified cul-
ture are being adopted. Our sugar
cane industry is being handled by
central and other factories perfect
ly equipped for the best and great
est amount of work. By means of
irrigating canals our rice industry
in southwest Louisiana is being
tremendously increased. Truck
farming, dairying, and the raising
Of improved stock are everywhere
receiving attention.
The low price Of cotton in 1898
had the compromising effect of
turning the attention of the people
to the ACCESSIBILITY of establishing
factories near the fields Of produc-
ton, and the day is in >ight, when
the profits of the factory will be
added to those of the raw product. |
Our vast forests of varied tim
Der are attracting unprecedented |
attention. Great saw mills are
being established, and factories to
work up the hard woods are like
wise in contemplate on.
The spirit of progress pervades
he people. The question of good
Dads is being agitated. The paw
ng, and drainage of the towns and
tiles is being looked after, and
lew Orleans is preparing for such
improvements on a grand scale.
he great waterways system of the
tate is receiving attention as is
lsO the extension of our commerce
it'll Latin America. Desirable
IMMIGRATION is earnestly desired,
nd capital is being invited INTO
g state. TO both, exceptional
ducements are offered.
Very respectfully, Il
