Felix Bienvenu and * Albert, Rousseau and Miss Co rinne Winchester arrived here Tuesday evening to witness our carnival l)aradle and ball. -A con ervative estimate of the number of pei'ople who witness- s ed our healatiful Mardi Gras celebration, is put down to eigh a thousaidl Ipeple. S -Owing h tlhe full and com- P plete details of the Mardi Gras ti pageant our l,-al news and other j interesting matter was crowded out of this. its.ue. -While firing the einon on Mardi G(rin evening Messrs. Chas. t(utekunst, Willie Hadley and B. F Friedly were burnt on the liands t nud face. Their injuries are pain ful, but nothing serious. -Misses M. and J. Mignone c Robicheanux of Lafayette, who ( came to witness taUr Manri Gras festivities, remainel here a few e days, with their grand mother r Mrs. F. C. Aubert. r -It seems now, that the only ) hope of the sugar indtustry is in t the Senate. The House has pass ,ed the bill finally by a large ma jority. Congressman Price, Mey er, Davy andl R4bertson voted against the bill; for this noble action, they have the unamnlious approval of the people of Louisi ana. Boatner and Blanchard have fallen wiunder the party lash, and voted for the bill. It seems that they bokl dearer to their ad herence to the Democratic party than to the interest of the people of their state. Such legislators may be put down as politicians, and not as true statesmen repre senting their people and their in terest. What good is a party to a people if that party crushes their industries out of existences and starve them to death? Our peo ple cannot, like politicians, live on the party, as only politicians get in fat offices, the people must live on the fruit of their labor and on the outulmt of their industries. Can they submit to this without protestation? 'We would suggest that our people, or at least, our board of trade pass strong reso lutions upholding the course of our representatives who so nobly etood by their people notwith etanding the party lash applied on their back, and condemn Boat ner and Blanchard who sacrified the interest of the people of their great state to fall in line with the political machines.
