The railroad down the Red River
Valley is now 215 miles long. The
stretch completed from Shreveport to
Alexandria is 122 miles, and the ex.
tension from there toward New Or
leans via Baton Rouge is completed
for a distance Of 90 miles, to a point
within three miles of the Mississippi
river. In an interview with the New
Orleans Daily States, Mr.. ETlerbe an
nounced this week that the fifty miles
TO Baton Rouge would be completed
by spring.

On the Valley train last Tuesday
morning, Miss Carrie Balance, who
has been sick at Rochelle for the past
three weeks with typhoid fever, was
broughtup from Alexandria to Mont
gomery. She was accompanied by
her mother and DR.. j. L. Durham and
his wife. Miss Carrie has been the
stenographerfor thelumber company
at Rochelle, and while she is yet very
weak, we are glad to say she is on the
road to recovery.

To Fight the Boil WeeyiI.

Dr. VIM. c. Stnbbs, who attended
the convention at Dallas, to devise
ways and means to fight the boil we
vii, advocates a special session Of
The Legislature to pass quarantine
laws against cotton and seed from
Texas being brought into this State.
Dr. Stubbs arrived in New Orleans
last Monday night and gives it as
his opinion that this is most impor-
tant matter, and should be acted on
at once in order to be put in force be-
fore another crop is planted.
Since writing the above paragraph
we see by the dispatches from Baton
Rouge that Gov. Heard has received
a numerously signed petition from
persons who had attended the boil
weevil convention at Dallas, asking
him to call conference of leading
cotton planters of Louisiana to con-
slider the situation. The governor
called the conference for Friday next
IN New Orleans. 1t is very likely that
this conference will request the gov
ernor to call special session of the
legislature to carry into effect DR..
Stubbs' idea of buying or leasing
strip twenty miles wide along the
Texas border to be denuded of all
cotton.

A distinguished party arrived il

They were met ut the depot bya re-
ception committee consisting of J. H.
McNeely, r. S. Cameron, C. Il. Teal
W. B. Clarke and h. G. Goodwin,
and we're driven to the Hotel LeSage,
where the party took breakfast.
At IL O'Clock the court house bell
was tapped, and the citizens, includ-
ing a number of ladies, to the number
OF about $50 persons, assembled in
the court room to hear the candi-
dates discuss the political issues of
the day. Mr.. W. B. Clarke was chosen
chairman OF the meeting and master
OF ceremonies in the introduction of
the speakers.
The first speaker introduced was
Judge Blanchard, who spoke for
about an hour. His address was
well received, and he soon found he
was in the house of his friends, as the
frequent and hearty applause of the
audience well attested. We regret
our inability to devote any space to |
his utterances.
The next speaker was Mr.. Sanders |
who made himself solid with all bv
his humorous and witty statement of |
lis ability and fitness to hold Office.
de was followed by Messrs. Steel.
'teidley and Behrman, in the order
FAMED. The audience accorded each
md oil respectful hearing, and were
lberal lin their applause of all matters
hat struck popular chord.

Our neighbor OF the Pollock Tri.

on the deadly parallel. It's last ef-

The paragraphs quoted can only be
applied to the same subject by the

However, the Tribune was printed

The treaty submitted to Won for

economic advantages as great as
