BLOWN UP.
Roush's Grocery Store, at Board,
Wrecked by an Explosion of

nousn UrOcery oCOre, at board,
Wrecked by an Explosion of
Powder. -
A b Roush's grocery store blown
up, his entire stock of goods dam
aged and his dwelling house much
damaged, is the result of the ex-
plosion of can of powder Christ
mas evening, in the store-room
How the powder was ignited is not
known, but it is thought to have
been from the ball OF a roman can
die. The boys of the neighbor-
hood were engaged in sham bat
tie with roman candles, and it is
supposed that a shot from one OF
these entered the store and set the
powder off.
That no person was injured, is
almost miracle, as several per-
sons were in the store at the time
of the explosion. Guy Blessing
was not mo-e than six or eight feet
from where the powder was stored.
Probably fifteen or twenty persons
were in and around the door; some
of these were badly shocked and
thrown to the ground, but not
otherwise injured. =
One side of the building was
blown entirely out. The opposite
side was burst through into the
kitchen and all the dishes, furni-
ture, etc, was destroyed.
The roof was blown through in
one place, doors were blown off the
hinges, and window lights were
blown out all through the house.
The postofioe, which was located
in one end of the store, was not
injured. The loss to goods and
buildings will exceed $500. 50L

And with this meeting there has been
actively inaugurated a political cam
pagn nearly thirteen months preceding
the election in 1904, and at least nine
months of the nomination whether by
primary election or State convention.
Why this haste?
The gathering was a success, as it
should have been, and in the home city
of Mr.. Blanchard, where there are over
$4,000 inhabitants; meeting less pro-
nounced would have been recorded Z
discredit to him. From that view then
Mr. Blanchards friends should be we'll
satisfied and the endorsing resolution
must be no less gratifying to him, but
there is one feature of this meeting
which will address itself forcefully to
the men who, unmoved by sentiment
and personality, think and reason logi-
cally, the Democrats throughout the
State who are more concerned in the re-
form of abuses in the party, and who
favor measures and policies for the well
fare of Democracy as being paramount
to the success of individuals will reach
the conclusion that if "a feav persons"
have already created such an influence
that Justice Blanchard could not carry
Caddo parish and that to offset or nett
tralize this influence the Blanchard rally
was logical sequence, what will be the
power of these "fezv persons" when Or
ganized Systematically for the purpose
as sustaining the allegation that Mr..
Blanchard could not carry his own par
ish? From the Caucasian's Democratic
point Of view that resolution should not
have been submitted nor adopted, as
it indicates weakness maintained in a
boastful sense. in the absence of an issue
which is not before the people. The en-
dorsement of Mr. Blanchard was the
proper thing to do, and with that en-
dorsement he and his friends could have
the meeting But the best and
greatest of men will make mistakes.
