May this immense temple of freedom
ever stand lesson to oppressors, an
example to the oppressed, a sanctuary
for the rights of mankind. And may
these happy United States attain that
complete splendor and prosperity
which viii illustrate the blessings of
their government and for ages to come
rejoice the departed souls of its found
ers.-Lafayette's Farewell Speech to
American Congress.

This formidable looking document
was duly dated, signed and sealed
with COB of brown paint.
Soon Dunwoodie was in the ecstasy
of smoking the favorite McCabe mix
ture. Then he noticed the younger
man packing up his tools of trade and
making to descend.
"Here! Hey! What are you up to
nowy' he demanded suspiciously. "Go
back to work, you young rascalv'
"I'm only afther goin' to tell Pearl
the good news" said McCabe, with a
quiet smile.
And when Dunwoodie got home that
night the mischief was done and a
homemade wedding supper awaited
him on the table.

His clothes all tattered and torn,
With beard unkept and head shaggy,

BY rope slung over his back,
With a frying pan dirty and grimy,
And bacon and beans In sack.
Vest laugh and scor, at the picture,
Make fun Of the man at your will
While you are enjoying the laughter,
He Is tramping over mountain and hill.
Is seeking and searching and delving,
Mid the peaks, the crags and the pine
Till his long life OF labor rewarded
He ut last has discovered mine.
Yes. laugh, but remember while laughing
The west owes all TO such men
Our country our history, our grandeur
Is made by them now and then.

Please don't consider them scamps
And don't for o moment consider

No legislation in favor of Statehood
during the present session of Congress
means that the trusts will succeed in
preventing the enactment of laws
regulating their operation. Until
there is action on the Statehood bill,
the friends of Arizona, New Mexico,
Indian Territory and Oklahoma will
block the passage of trust measures.
In fact, the warning Congressman
seem to be playing into the hands of
the trust kings.
And now the employees of the Santa
Fe railway system get the benefit of
raise in wages of 10 to IL! per cent.
1t is a splendid proof of the stability
and strength of the business and
industrial situate rendered all the
more striking by the fact that it is
but one case in long procession, a
single link in a continuous chain which
stretches clean across the land
Marconi, it appears, has been very
successful in receiving in Nova Scotia

According to caucus vote, California

THE GOvERNORsHIp.

What has become Of the Price boom
for Governor? It seems to have pet
cred out in double quick time. Prob
ably Bob Broussard has concluded to
make the race instead of the brother
of Andrew. We believe that Bob
would make better showing Town
Talk of Alexandria.
For information of Brother McCor-
mick, would state that Hon. W. II.
Price is very prominent down this
way in connection with the Guberna-
torial nomination. The Price boom
was but recently the subject of a
lengthy editorial in the columns OF
that metropolitan journal the N. o.
Times Democrat. Numerous and often
are the mentions made Of this boom
which is daily growing more and more
robust as the people become aware OF
it, and the country press generally
seem to be making it their business to
keep it before the people for the rea-
son that back of this boom stands
a man, whose records Of faithful ser
vice in public and private life give the
assurance of an administration, that
will evoke the solid support and ad-
miration of the people. A man whom
at his home is honored and respected
and universally supported for the NOM
ination of Governor. Among his most
staunch supporters is Hon II. F..
Broussard, who has emphatically de-
MED any intention of appearing as
candidate for Governor. No neighbor,
the boom has not ''petered OUT but
on the contrary is steadily rolling
along, and like snow ball, the more
it rolls the bigger it gets

OIL IN IBERIA.

| We have long been aware of the oil
have endeavored to give them as much
publicity as possible and several at
tempts have been made by our local real
estate men and others to form a
company yet without success. That
oil exists here is fully established,
geological surveys, expert oil men,
attest the fact, but for some reason,
those who have money refuse to in
vest where there is an element of
chance. They will play poker, bet
Oh horse races, base ball games, buck
the tiger at keno and take all manner
of chances, but when asked to go in
to a project to put down test we'll,
refuse on the ground of uncertainty.
Some Of these fine days, some shrewd,
calculating fellow will come in and
gobble everything before his inten-
tions are known. Our citizens should
at once combine and develop the re-
sources of the community The fol-
lowing letter from Mr. Alba Haywood,
the oil king to Mr.. Geo. Vest will
prove of interest:
1.-THE only wonder to me is, after
seeing your indications, that your
own town people do not make up q
pepular subscription Of sufficient money
to putdown test well on some of
the land along the Teche. Every
and every negro porter
and from that to bankers and capital
lists could we'll afford to contribute in
to their means toward such |
a fund, for if oil should be discovered
there, as l believe it would be, they
would oil DO benefited to very much |
greater degree than they can imagine. |
would not ask for any better pro-
position were foot loose. =
