Of the printers in this State and California as q

The Shreveport Times, in
speaking of the Rhett-Cooley
duel, sensibly says:
a public sentiment that
tolerates and encourages de-
nunciations, while it condemns
the methods of redress a high
sense Of honor and a generous
sensitiveness to insult natural
ly resort, is vulgar, mean,
beastly and craven. When
public sentiment shall put the
sentence of absolute disgrace
upon the man who publicly
offers an unwarrantable insult,
then it will have a right to con-
denim violent individual.meas-
ures Of redress; but not until
then"
Truly, every man should be
personally responsible for
what he says. Yet, the true
gentleman rarely, if ever, re-
sorts to insult. Billingsgate
and abuse is the refuge of bull
lies, blackguards and towards,
and public opinion is respon,
sible for the bad influence of
such characters. In our hum
bic way of thinking, the blood
of Cooley is not upon the
hands of Rhett, but rests upon
a mean, contemplate, coward
ly public, who bounded on the
bloody conflict. Shame upon
such civilization and christian
ity (save the mark that gloats,
hyena-like, over blood and
carnage.

That great disinfectant, car.
bolic acid, should be on hand
in every household, and if
bought by the gallon or quart,
it is cheap; if bought in walls it
is dear. An objection hitherto
has been its unpleasant odor,
but this was on account of its
strength. Solutions will kill
the eggs of all kinds of vermin,
will destroy ants in the hill,
and annihilate the germs of
diseases and plaques in stables
and outhouses, but a general
cleaning out is required in con
nection. All drains, sinks, and
pipes conveying water should
have a sprinkling.

We had INDUCED the hope

even then the pardon must be

Women Eligible to Office.
Communicated

We know OF no provision In
the constitution of Louisiana to
prevent women from holding
District and Parish Offices.
Article 105 of the Constitu-
ton reads thus: GAIL civil
officers Of the State at large
shall be voters of, and reside
within, the State; and all Dis
trict or Parish officers shall re-
side within their respective
Districts or Parishes, and shall
keep their Offices at such place
therein as may be required by
law"
Electors under the Constitu-
ton are men. so none but men
can hold an office for the State
at large; but District and Par
ish officers are not required to
be electors.
Art. 1O9 reads thus "None
but citizens of the United
States and of the State shall be
appointed to any Office Of trust,
or profit in this State
The term "citizen" includes
women as well as men.
The District JUDGES requir
ed further to be twenty-five
years of age and a lawyer of
two years practice. Art. 81.
The District Attorney, the
Parish Judge, the Clerk, Coro-
ner and Sheriff, have no addi-
tional qualifications.

er is made by law, and the Re
corder is required to be an
elector and consequently a
man. This qualification ought
to be abolished, so that a wo-
man could hold this office also.
