To us democracy is as a religion. It would be impossible to change our belief in the fundamental principles of democracy as they were taught and practiced by Jefferson and Jackson, nor could we be honest with ourself and to our children to teach and advo cate any other doctrine; but Jef ferson and Jackson are not in control of the party in this State, and we do not feel that we can be honest with ourself and quietly t submit to being bucked and gag ged and made to serve a party that has become as corrupt as hell itself." ' This evidences strong feeling and conviction, but in all candor, it should be said that a party does not become corrupt in a day. When, may we ask our brother of the Echo, did this corruption begin, or rather when did he di co er it? In the late cam pa'g , our brother was absolute ly blind-for none is so blind as he who will not see-as to, the state of affairs. He would not see. He refused to hear. He declined to investigate. It is a pity that his change of feeling should come too late to assist in the crusade so fruitlessly waged in the campaign. The house occupied by Jas. Vinci near the R. R. V. station is undergoing repairs. Our first Philippine money or der comes from our young friend, Bert Levy, who wants to have the home paper sent to him across the seas. May it ever bring him good tidings from the folks at home. THE TRUE DEMOCRAT building is now going up. The brick used is the Bayou Sara Brick Co's. product, and will make an attrac tive building say all who have seen ours, the very first built from this brick. Mr. Wm. Schneibelen, manager of the company, was on the ground, I Saturday, and was much grati- 1 fied with the effect. We hope I next week to be able to announce ( when the building will be com- i pleted.

In striking contrast to a recent flowery argosy from Rosedown sent us by its chatelaine two weeks ago, showing the rich blossoms of late winter, now comes a tray from Mrs. J. P. Newsham heaped with flowers of the early spring, but lavishly abundant and fine as her skill and taste seem able to produce. Roses, looking like they never knew a chilling wind; lilacs, pale flower-children of far New Eng land, in great clusters; early ver bena, all perfect with delight some beauty and fragrance. The regular quarterly muster of Co. A. will be held Monday, March 30, 6 p. m. at the armory. Annual inspection by a United States Army officer will take place at the same time. Coffee and lunch will be served at Py thian Hall after inspection. A full attendance of members is ordered. There are a few -more empty houses in town than we like to see. Stir up, every body, and originate new industries to fill those houses. At one time emp ty houses were scarce. Now there are several. One is too many. These things should be looked after, and property-hold ers, tenants of the soil, should make it their personal concern to keep up the average of growth and progression lest their own holdings depreciate in value. These towns need more small in dustries to attract and hold working people. The Art Exhibit at the school house has been very well pat ronized this week. The collect ion is composed of nearly 300 large carbon photographs and engravings of some of the most celebrated pictures and statues, and affords both pleasure and in struction. A few pictures are in color, but these are hardly so good as the black and white and brown and white. The ex cellence of the exhibit was sur prising as nothing so fine was expected.
