STRIVING TO EARN An HONEST LIVING
II seems strange indeed that there are men
who petulantly dismiss a person seeking 10
obtain legitimate employment. An instance
which recently occurred near the head OF
Canal street will hardly be recognized py
the chief actor. When the Mobile trains
arrive or depart quite a lumber OF boys
hang around in the vicinity OF the depot,
anxious to earn dime or two by carrying
packages or running on errands Tor those
who desire their services. Occasionally
these lads are rather too imp0rtunste, and
perhaps annoy irritable persons. A citizen
returning from one of the watering places
last week carried q tat valise which an IN
dustrious boy offered to carry for him. The
traveller, in angry tones, told him hat II ne
did not instantly vamOse he would Kick
him as high as q balloon. The boys
face, on receiving this rebuff, was q study
for a great painter. and it was difficult Tor
hin to respond. Finally the poor wait an
swered: ''Sir, l wished to earn q dime TO
buy my bread" This reply opened the
gentleman's eyes, and caused him to think.
He hurriedly pushed his valise into the
hungry messengers hands, n told him TO
follow. Arriving at the street car which ne
intended to take, the gentleman favored
the youthful porter with q dollar, at the
same time telling him to call at . certain
store the next morning. Our little hero
was there as appointed, and, after answer
ing numerous questions, was put to WORK,
on a fair salary. His employer intends to
henceforth look after him, and II all turns
out well will promote him for the good les
son he taught. The boy is now earning
more dimes than enough to pay his bread.

them of the political and civil machinery of
this State. Add to these damaging admis-
sions to the first political endeavOrs of the
cOlored voter. still another, to wit: That
the negro, like his more highly favored eau
casian brother, from Indifference or thought
lessness, has torgone the direct exercise OF
his political rights and has RENTED the
same to the rings that SO conveniently and
willingly assume party management, and
thus, like the white man, he has not unfre.
quently done by proxy in politics what he
should have done in person. These admls-
siOns are as full as the facts, and embrace
quite enough to prove that new citizens
have not always and sufficiently appreciated
their political rights and obligations; but
they do not justify, when fairly construed,
a Judgment against either competency or
integrity of the negro voter. Such lapses IN
citizenship have occurred among the Anglo
Saxon citizens, and will occur again; but
they are not incurable in their character,
nor ia either the white or black race, such
as to lead the patriot to dispair OF the
republic.
It would be a sad day for Louisiana when
half of the citizens thereof shall be soiemnly
written down either as political fools or
knaves. And the men who, while con-
~templating the negro emerging from a
bondage Of centuries, and still embarrassed
by the presence OF an ignorance, timidity
and servility that belonged to his former
serfdom, and making his first essays as a
citizen with the political experience OF less
than ten years, would correct the mistakes.
failures and imperfect efforts of this briei
experimental period, and thereupon in,
stitute a contrast between the negro and
the white man, who has had the advantages
of a lifetime experience under the favorable
auspices Of a civilization that is the growth
OF centuries, and should conclude from such
q comparison, that negro citizenship is a
failure, and that the negro should be re-
ton as q polit ical chattel, not a political
entity controlling his own action, but 6

CITY PRINTING.

The City Council has let the City
printing to the Democrat at the Same
prices % paid last year, except that it
is to publish the ordinances free of
charge. Heretofore the COURIER and
Democrat have received $l.OO per
square for printing these ordinances,
and we can see no good reason why
the city should not pay that now. We
believe the 'laborer is worthy OF his
hire" and newspapers should be paid
. fair price for work the same as
mechanics or any one else who does
work for the public. We are in favor
of retrenchment as much as anybody
else can be, but we are not one of those
who would retrench by dopriving any
employee Of the city of their just due.
All legal publications, ordinances in.
cludcd, are by statute law allowed ia
be charged for at the rate of 81 90 per
square Of 10 lines BREWER type, and
when we do the city printing, il We
ever do 1t again, we shall expect oul
legal rights. The city had just as well
expect the Gas Company to give is
gas, or the Solicitor or Marshal to con.
tribute their salaries to the public
Treasury, as for the city printer to give
his legal dues to the city.
