DEMOCRATIC OPPORTUNITY.

The nearer We approach the mex
national campaign the brighter be.
come the prospects Of a democratic
victory, provided the sixtesn-to-
oners and the gold democrats can
get together and enter the fght
with q united aud resolute front.
The scandals touching the post
Office department in Washingtion
are assuming greater proportion
every day and there are those who
fear that the trail OF corruption
may be discovered in other branches
OF the government. The eleventh
hour zeal manifested in bringing
the guilty to justice will not appeass
the people, They will probably
call for new deal all around and
the democratic party may be asked
to deliver the goods.
or suitable candidates there is q
plenty aud on the issues to be pre-
scented next year, q democrat with .
clean record and respectable ability
will draw votes from the independ-
emit column which usually sways the
result.
The. issues will probably be:
Tariff reform, economy 10 public
expenditures and war on boodleism.
President Roosevelt will probably
by renominated by his party with
out opposition. His personal In.
tegrity and hatred Of political COR
ruptionists are known and Oonced-

PAVED STREETS.

The new Council are doing some
fine work, showing that they ar pro-
gressive, energetic citizens, having
the good Of the community at heart,
and ever ready to place our town in
line with other towns of the State
There is one question that they are
now engaged in considering and that
is the one of paving our streets, Main
street especially, with it's immense
traffic should be placed in a ~condition
that will allow q continuous use of
same without the great hindrance of
mud and bog holes which has been it's
condition for months. Temporizing
with this question is at an end. More
money has been spent, squandered in
the last fifteen years in expedients
that were of doubtful utility, and only
temporary value, than would have
paved the whole street from end to
end with some good lasting material.
The town of Alexandria is at present
putting down on its streets that great
paving material which has stood the
test of the most exacting service. the
Barber Asphalt, material adopted by
many Of the cities and towns Of the
country. The expense is reasonable,
and within the means of all, the terms
being SO easy that the property hold
or cannot feel it burdensome. For in.
stance, a thirty foot front would cost |
the owner at the most one hundred |
dollars, with payments of one to five
years, or at rate of $40. 90 per year.
This surely is within the reach Of all,
md when the great advantages derived
rom it are considered no property
,wner should object. The advantages
# paved streets are so numerous and
elf evident that it would seem unnec-
ssary to mention them, but few Of
hem might be mentioned here. Paved
treets are almost dust proof, they are
leanly, they promote good health, +
hey afford beautiful drives they ia
ilitate business, they add value to
he property fronting these streets,
hey beautify the surroundings and
trike the beholder, especially strang-
rs, that the town which has them il

"CAJAN BOB. "

Hon. r. F. Broussard, whose
memorable work in pushing through
Congress last fall the bill permit
ing improvement of the Mermeutau
in the interests of rice attracted &C
much attention, came in from Cam
eren parish on Thursday, where he
had been attending the dedication OF
the Louisiana Biologic Station, and
left for home over the Gueydan
branch this morning.
"Coozan Bob, - the Congress
man 10 called in Vermilion and
Cameron, has not lost his interest
in the Mermsntau dam; and during
his recent visit in Cameron he
made many inquiries among his
friends and acquaintance as to the
efficiency Of the project and the
attitude Of the people Of the coast
country toward it.
"Alll opposition to the dam has
ceased 90 far as | was able to as
certain, said Mr.. Broussard at the
Peoples Independent mill, this
morning. "The people Of Cameron,
some Of whom were at first inclined
to oppose the project on the Mer-
mentau would overflow their lands
have come to realize that their
fears were groundless, aud that tho
dam 10 already doing all that was
expected Of it in the way of shut.
Ing ont salt water and storing the
fresh water. The people Of South
western Louisiana are to be con-
graduated on the enterprise they
have shown il this matter. ]"
After conference with Hon.
Philip s. Pngh and number Of
other citizens. Congressman Brons-
sard left on the branch train this
morning for Abbeville. 1t is we'll
known to oil who are interested 10
politics that Mr.. Broussard's name
has repeatedly been mentioned as
candidate for governor, his,brilli-
Int record 10 congress having given
him an snviable reputation in all
|eotions Of tho State. he is, how
,vsr, 90 conservative as he il
modest, and has on oil occasions
'sfused 10 announce his candidacy,

SHAME.

The people throughout the State
feel Inundated at the manner in
which the "citizsns' Of Lake Charles
are carrying on. They held a mass
meeting Wednesday night and their
actions and resolutions at that
meeting show clearly that they are
bent on mischief. They denounced
the action Of the Board of Pardons
and called upon the governor to
ignore the communion of the sent.
ence of batson. The proceedings
which occupy three columns Of the
Lake Charles Press show, most
concluslvely, that it is an attempt
to buldooSe the governor to satiate
their desire for blood.
Really, it is to be regretted that
they're blinded by passion as to lay
reason aside There is no reason
to show that Batson is guilty Of the
murders laid at his door, and until
it can be proved to the entire salts
faction of the people that he is the
guilty party let him not suffer un-
justly.
II Governor Heard has any con-
science he will sign the recon-
mendation for a communication of
thesentence Of Batson and in doing
this will meet with the approval
aud sanction Of the people Of
Louisiana -Erchange.

Indigestion Causes
Catarrh Of the
Stomach.

Pr many years 1t has been supposed that
Catarrh Of the Stomach caused indigestion
md dyspepsia, but tho truth Is exactly tho
opposite. Indigestion causes catarrh. Re-
peated attacks Of indigestion inflames the
mucous membranes lining the stomach and
exposes the nerves Of the stomach, thus caus-
Ing tho glands to secrete mucin instead OF
tho juices Of natural digestion. This 70
called Catarrh Of tho Stomach.

PORT DEPOSIT FEARS GORGE
People Of That Town Looking for An

Port Deposit, Feb. 2.-Since early
morning much uneasiness and excite
ment has been caused here owing 10
the breaking up and gorglng of the ice
opposite the town. Prom shore TO shore
there is n mass of heavy ice. tossed
about by the swollen waters and tow
ering up into great piles at many
points. Already the water has risen
six feet and the railway tracks are COW
cred. Cellars and yards are flooded
and az the southern end OF the town
furniture has been removed to the sec
ond floors. Boats are kept ready IA
case of emergency.
The water is still rising, and IL is be-
lieved the worst IL not yet over. Th'

For Perfeet Respiration

For perfect respiration two things
are necessary-chest capacity and
breath control. The average individ-
nal, woman especially, uses but a linn
ited portion Of the lungs and upper
chest in ordinary breathing When
ever little unusual physical effort
makes demand for an extra breathing
capacity, note how sne puffs and pants
almost to point Of gasping. The
reason for this is that the muscles of
the lower chest, waist and abdomen
have become well nigh atrophied
through neglect and abuse. They are
stiff and unresponsive. and have now
to be coaXed back 20 a condition of
activity and obedience.
1t is quite as possible to educate
these muscles so that they shall re-
spond to our slightest demand, as it is
that our hands are trained to do Gun
I bidding. Different teachers will advo-
\ cate different forms of breathing-up-
per chest, side chest. lower
chest and abdominal breathing
but what we most want Is
absolute control; such control of the
muscles as shall enable us to make
.use of any desired form of breathina
at the word of command, for all forms
have special values. Full upper ches
breathing is used most, but lower ches'
and abdominal breathing are very valu
able in cases of nervousness, indlges
ton, stomach and bowel troubles.

Benefit of Yoke Skirts

The yoke skirt is a practical design
in skirts. for it invites the remodelns
of skirts. an achievement that is rarely
possible. The clever woman viii read
ilv discover that the dress skirt that is
hopelessly short may be thus easily
pieced down by means of the yoke, and
The latter may be stitched, braided OF
embroidered, or may even be made Of
contrasting material. The idea Of re-
modelling reminds me Of the fact that
the woman Of limited peans often
makes a more stylish appearance thar
one who has an abundance and greater
variety.

forced to stay with their engines until
they are turned over to the men in the

time-slips show from one to two hours
overtime each day. Last night John
Shields was appointed to take charge
of the engines upon the siding after the
run is over. and as the engines are
cleaned out at the ash pit he goes from
one to the other moving them up. John

the tendency of persons to measure
success by the amount OF financial re-
turn His text was st. Matthew g: 34-
And behold, the whole city came out
to meet Jesus and when they saw
Him, they besought Him that He would
depart out of their coasts" Take
Christ into your business" he said in
conclusion. "He belongs there since
nothing human is remote from Him.
And il you fail as the world counts
failure, there will be left the better half
of the fruits of living, a soul untouched
of meanness, a conscience pure before
God and man. May He give you the
longing for that success. Welcome the
spiritual, although TO narrow view It
may seem to imperil the material. SO
win God bless you and give to you His
peace"
