We had faith in Mr. Sanders from the beginning and pinned our faith to him and did what we could to bring about his nomination, and our faith in him has not changed in the least, and we believe yet that he is going to make us one of the best Governors Louisiana ever had. and thus be in accord with all our sister States of this gre union, unainave we in common with Spain or any other foreign country, that we should re partment in connection with his school for the training of more teachers for our schools, and as he points out the fact that no additional buildings are necessary, and considering the great good that would accrue along educational lines, the legislatuae ought to act favorably upon it tain their names and customs and by so doing remain a puzzle toour own countrymen?
