Lovely woman, sweet and human,
How her witching ways disarm us!
Bright and witty what pity,
That her bills should so alarm us!
Then, Dame Fashion, put the lash on,
Urge your steeds of daring mettle;
Lovely woman, sweet and human,
Must have dress and we must settle!
The river has departed, and save
the slight thread like stream, that
meanders in front of the city, we
have little TO remind us, Of the
noble body OF water which hoated
upon its bosom some months since
our palatial packets.
That dreaded horse disease, the
Charlton. has searched the KIsat
chic portion of our parish. and
has proven fatal in several in
stances. Mr.. Z. Presley lost all
his horses and mules, nine in num-
Der. Messrs. Beazley and Fuller
have also suffered the loss of their
stock.
Weather and crops. Since our
last no ram has fallen in our
vicinity, and corn is suffering some
little in consequence. From con-
versations with our farmers from
different parts of the parish, we
learn that the crop upon an aver
age is IN splendid condition. No
worms have yet appeared and the
cotton crop is looking and doing
finely.
Rumors of war. On all sides
we hear the cry and dir of armed
force. This week that 800 stands
OF arms have been seen passing
through Cloutierville for this city,
to equip the negro and protect
them in their rights, etc.
Tomorrow, Sunday, at 4 p. M.
is the regular monthly meeting of

and the recently elected City
Council have been installed. John
Laplace was elected City Treasurer

City Collector; and Chas. Leroy,

Our Mayors court has been
burdened for some time past with
attending to the warlike attitude
of the ''soiled doves" and in truth
they haye become quite belliger-

control and improve Red River,
to secure soil and mineral surveys
for our people; the big antitrust
bills have passed the House, and
the rural credits bill is being &C
lively worked out. | am working
in hearty accord with our great
Democratic President and my col
leagues to enact these measures
into law and give the masses of
our people the relief we have the
right to demand.
In view of the experience | have
had here, the close friendships l
have in this Administration which
enable me to accomplish things for
you, the pending legislation for
which | am working, and the po
sition | occupy on important Gem
mittees, | believe you will agree
that it will be to the ADVANTAGE
of our District to return me to
Congress and that this is no time
to ''swap horses in the middle Of
the stream"
All agree that during my first
term here | have acquired eXper-
fence and influence on which to
build and can be of even greater
service to You IN the future. No
matter how great the ability of a
new man, it would require time
and service for him to receive rec
ognition here
If we have differed on any que>-
tions of patronage or legisIations
it was an honest difference of opin-
ion. and l hope and believe YOU
will grant me the same right |
readily concede to you.
1t has been proposed to leave
the selection OF your Congressman
to one man, or 10 one parish. l
| would have no fear of results
in doing this, knowing that the
man or the parish proposed
would represent the patriotic In
terest of the people, but the time
has forever passed when any man
or set of men can select your Off
Gals. l demand that every white
man in the Eighth Congressional
District enjoy and exercise his
sacred right to take part in select
ing your CONGRESSMAN. For this
reason / submit my candidacy to
YOU who OWN this Office and
have the right to CONTROL it.
My greatest regret IS that my
duties here hold me and deprive
me of the pleasure and privilege
of seeing you now, but hope 10
get home it time to meet you per-
sonally before the primary. | am
grateful for the uniform friend
ship expressed to me in letters
from ali parts of the District. and
especially for the hundreds Of vo-
tiers who have written that while
they did not support me in the
asst election. they are for me ac-
lively now.
If l have been loyal to your in
tercsts- if | have done my duty
here with energy, courage. apd
efficiency, l think, In all fairness
you will agree that | deserve a re-
nomination and a second term.
THIS Is FOR YOU TO DECIDE.
l submit my candidacy to you up
on the record | have made here
and frankly ask your vote and &C
tive support in the coming Demo
cratic Primary to select YOUR
Congressman. pledging you the
sane fidelity to your interests in

This assault against the white or

It's foul fight. an unf1ir fight,

History Of Present Outbreak.
The present outbreak first appeared
in southern Michigan. How it was in.
troduced there is not known. Ship
ments of diseased hogs from this
place which passed to Chicago are be.
lieved to be responsible for the in.
fection Of the pens in the Union stock
yards. Once the yards became infect
ed there was danger that every ship
ment of live stock through Chicago tc
other parts of the country might pick
up the germs Of the disease and
spread the cOntagion. These ship.
ments, composed largely Of feeders

At present the chief danger lies IL
the possibility Of there being con
