LOCAL NEWS.

The Progressive League
meeting as advertised was
called to order by President Nc
Mahon, who introduced the speak
ers. The first speaker was the
popular writer and editor, Mr.. j..
M. Leveque, whose subject "the
Development of Southwest Louis
lana" was intelligently and ac-
ceptably treated in a written essay,
we'll delivered in voice aud style,
80 much so that the usual prejudice
against written addresses was not
felt, or even thought Of. The
wonderful resources and possibil-
ties of this part of Louisiana were
eloquently portrayed and were re-
ceived with marked attention and
applause. Mr.. Tom Richardson,
manager of the Progressive Union
Of New Orleans made an address
on Organization" was one long
to be remembered by those who
had the good fortune to hear him,
it was replete with information,
advice aud points for our League
here, which will no doubt profit
much thereby. Mr.. Richardson's
success in New Orleans and other
places gives great weight to any
thing, he may say on the subject
of exploiting the great resources Of
our section. The audience that
greeted him was not as large as it
should have been though the bust
ness element Of the town was well
represented. We look for this
meeting to bear good fruit which
will make a fne showing in the
near future. Col. Richard Pome.
roy voiced the sentiments of the
audience In a few well chosen words
of commentator and thanks to the
gentlemen for their disinterested
SERVICES. Next week we will pub
lish ID full the speeches of these
geptl men as delivered at the
meet bs'

Infantry, accompanied by hi
brother Mr.. G. p. Moss, gave ou
sanctum a very pleasant call. l
will be remembered that Capt
Moss is a Louisiana boy, having
passed his examination in thi.
town for cadetship in 1890, sine,
which time he has seen much ser
vice, being assigned to the 24tt
Regiment Immediately upon his
graduation from West Point and
having been rapidly advanced to
the grade of Captain. A position
which was reached heretofore in
tho Regular Army only after a
couple of decades of honorable
service. Capt. Moss, though but
a young man, is a veteran of two
wars, aud bears his honors grace
fully and modestly. He talks very
interestingly upon the Cuban and
Philippine wars, modestly emitting
anything of his personal partici-
patton. He will remain with US
but few days when he will depart
for New York and other Eastern
cities, thence rejoining his regi-
ment at Fort -, Oregon.
