From TaliSheek.
Talisheek, September 90, 1908.

Taisheek, September 29, 1908.
October, with its gorgeous foliage and golden,
dreamy days, is upon US. bringing to a close the
cherished hopes and possibilities that were inspired
by the summer just past. To the young the fading
year brings no sad reflections; to them comes the
thought OF the pleasures and galetes the coming
winter will afford them, and already are many form
ing their plans for the holiday festivities and the
pleasureable surprises they intend to give. Only
golden hopes and rosy days are theirs. But to the
feeble and i'll, upon whom age has crept silently do
these autumn days, Signalling the close of life's
usefulness, come with feeling of sadness. To them
there no looking forward with bright expectations
They only can look forward to the end, and back
ward to the golden opportunities past, swallowed up
IN the relentless vortex OF necessity and shed bitter
tears over lost hopes, lost confidence in humanity,
and wonder why the 'Infnite Power has found it
necessary to give to them such an unsovable prob
lem to unraVel as life has proven: and only the
thought that some "sweet hope lies safely hidden
from mortal eyes" and that Tin the future angels
may roll the stone from this grave away" do they
find solace.
Matters in the pney woods regions move about
as in the past. The N. O. G. N R. r. Co. are open
passing OF the different trains, with the consequent
noise and hustle, is certainly a great relief to the
monotony of the past 1t does not seem so far to
somewhere, now that we jump into train
and go to see friends that used to take days to
visit And again, friends often find it great pleas
to visit here in the country, and it is not in
frequent occurrence to DEAR familiar faces greet
you at little station that did not have the
pleasure of in the past. Needless to say, owe
this to the enterprise of our railroad and its pro
promoters.
Well, election is oyer, and probably there are a
number of good citizens suffering with severe
headaches, as well as blasted hopes.
The school here opened very auspieiously.
Sunday was very unpleasant, rainy day, but there
goodly attendance to hear the Rev. Mr. Beard
in of his interesting talks.
A number of strangers from other places have
visited here recently.
Mr. and Mrs Robert Popkess, of New Orleans,
the guests of Mr.. and Mrs. W. H. Cook, as
also Miss E. Copp Mrs A. [. Bruce and grand
son, of New Orleans, Mrs. Sam Dupre and son, of
Baton Rouge, and Mrs. Reader, of Austin, Texas.
Mrs. Barker, of Kansas, with her daughter and
son, were recent guests of Mrs. Isabella Holmes.
Mrs. Jane Parker has returned to her home here,
after quite lengthy stay in Covington, under the
care of one of your prominent physicians.

MERCHANTS PROTECTIVE
ASSOCIATION.

e constitution and bylaws of the Retail
-rchants' Association of Covington have
oeen adopted and the association is now es-
tablshed on working basis
The organization of this association means
more to the business community of Coving-
ton than is evidenced in it's title, and while
IL Will protect merchants in their dealings
with customers who are slow or bad pay, it
also has for it's object protection against
UNJUST laws affecting businessmen, and a
careful scrutiny of all legislation relating
TO the same, " which means that it's men,
bers must necessarily become familiar with
all legislation affecting business and inte r
ested in placing in office men fitted for the
positions which they are to occupy not only
IN the legislature, but in the offices in the
parishes where the laws are to be inforced.
thus creating unity of interest in our
community that will unite factions and give
strength to merit and ability.
1t will also have tendency to enlarge the
cash trade and restrict the expensive credit
spstem
We quote the following clauses in the con-
stltutlon as showing the good influence the
Association will have in raising business to
a higher standard introducing cleaner
methods and establishing feeling of con-
fidence between merchant and customer
Promote kindlier feelings toward honor
able competition and removing the inclina-
ton to berate and criminate neighbors in
trade"
Inspiring confidence between buyer and
seller by doing business on legitimate prin-
ciples"
To stimulate determination to render
the title businessmen, a synonym for
honor, frmness, probity, justice and high
morals.
The adoption and incubation Of such pre-
cepts as the above cannot but give to bust
ness transactions higher moral tone that
will breed confidence and respect and must
assurdly lead to betterment of business
relations in Covington.
Every merchant in Covington should join
the Association and lend all aid to the con-
summation of it's objects and enforcement of
its teachings In unity there is strength. -
There is nothing that cannot be accomplish
ed by proper effort, that is founded on sound
business principles and supported by sane
and moral influences.
We welcome the organization of the Asso-
citation and bespeak for it the accomplish
ment of much good.

THE ELECTION.

On page five we give a tabulated state
ment of the. election returns of this parish,
showing that Mr.. Wickliffe carried every
ward but one-the First His majority in
the parish was 279, and in the State 1928.
A coincidence is the fact that he carried
every parish in the district except one
Mr.. Fayrot's home parish, which he lost by
twenty votes.
In winning this battle, Mr. Wickliffe has
exhibited those traits of character that make
for success in Congress -sound judgment,
executive ability, shrewdness in reading
character and unswervable frmness in the
support of justice and right. AS debater
and as an orator he stands in the front rank
Success awaits him, and we are proud to
be numbered among the parishes who
elected him.

local factionalism, it was predicted that Mr.
Tavlor would get small vote IN Acadia

that he came very near carrying it. He
won the nomination throughout the whole
district by the large majority, OF 2O66. We
