cause no matter how wealthy they
are, they want their moneys worth
every time In other words, Amer

Louisiana and the Cabinet.

As il customary every four years the
cabinet making industry fiourishes for
a brief season; at this Quadannual oc-
curance of the revival Of the industry,
in view of a Democratic President
having been elected, it is more active
than usual.
The press are as rule the cabinet
builders, and it is gratifying. to md
that our state is being mentioned as
one from which important material
should come, that for Post Master
General. and names Col. Robert Ewing
for the place.
That Louisiana is entitled to a place
in the cabinet is recognized, it has the
greatest local interest of any state II
the union officiated by the Nationa
Government and dispite this interest
which has been more generally favored
nv the Republican Party, she has re
NAMED steadfast and loyal to the
Democracy, and in view of the strate.
gic position of the state IN connec
ton with the Panama Canal Louisiana
should have a place at the council ooar'
of the Democratic Administration.
That Col. Ewing is the logical re
preventative Of the state and tn
Democratic party of the South IS ad
mitted; through his efforts and energ.
through two National campaigns, tn
state was among the largest contribu
tors to the campaigns funds. There
fore we say that every interest i
Louisiana should be exerted in behal
of Col. Ewing, who is In every way
fitted and qualified to fill cabine
Ministers chain and would be an homo
and credit to the state and the loys

Fires Again.

The fire alarm has sounded 30 often
during the week that the sound. of a
bell strikes terror to every heart.
Last Friday at noon the handsome
residence of Judge S. ]. Henry just
opposite the city was totally destroyed,
through heroic efforts of the people
who promptly responded to the alarm,
the contents were mostlh saved. The
loss is heavy one and was only par
TALLY covered by insurance.
Sunday afternoon the community was
startl ed by the burning of the barn
and contents of Katie Brothers just
above the town entailing loss of more
than thousand dollars with partial in
surance; these. frequent occurance OF
fire keeps all in statsof anxiety, the
thought is who will be next.
Again Monday night about midnight
the alarm was sounded and the sleeping
public awakened to see the dwelling
in East Natchitoches owned by Mr.. N.
T. Smith and occupied by Mr.. E. D.
Rogers inveloped in flames; the family
bearly escaping and saving only few
articles of furniture. This loss was
fairly well covered by insurance.
The causes of none of these fires are

ton make everything easily suscep
