THE GRANT PARISH CASE.

The REPUBLICAN yesterday enormously
attributed the decision of the Circuit
Court in the above case to the Supreme
Court. The language and principles of
law referred to are those of Judge Brady,
one of the associate justices of the Su-
preme Court.
In the course of the argument before
the Supreme Court, a number of the
judges intimated, in colloquies with the
counsel, that they leaned to the side of
the court below. Notable in this matter
were Justices Clifford, Strong and Brad
ley. Judge Field is counted on as sure to
sustain the judgment of the court below.
Judge Miller has intimated opposing
views, while Chief Justice Waite and
Justices Swayne and Hunt are believed to
be in accord with him. If these sur
misses are correct, the case will depend

A MISCONSTRUCTION.

If Engineer" will read again the ar
| ticle upon which his letter bases it's COM
ments, he will find it by no means
! amenabie to his criticism. In estimating
the restitution Of our unemployed people
we took the number of three or four thou
sand applicants for employment by the
city authorities. 1t was proper to infer
that these represented the unemployed of
the party in possession of the city gov
eminent, because those who had not voted
the ticket Of the party in possession could
not have expected, under party usage, en-
ployment at the hands of their political
opponents. We should then assume the
Republican unemployed and those de-
pendent on them at such proportion as
the vote of each party bears to the other.
These two elements of computation would
approximate the total unemployed and
dependent in the city. We have esti-
mated them from this and other bases of
calculation at twenty thousand.
This estimate was made in no party
sense save that our friends of the Common
Council seemed to have come under ac-
ceptance for rather more than the political
consignment would cover. This was
shown by the parable of Major Burke
breaking one hundred and fifty days work
among the thousands who demanded en-
ployment. These men were by no means
all mechanics. They were mostly day
laborers, one Of class which said to us a
few daysSince, 81 did drive corporation
cart, sir, until the election, but since then
1 have been mostly out of work"
We have noticed and commended the
movement of the mechanics in their own
affairs. We can assure them that land
lords are rapidly coming to the conclu-
sion that unless we encourage mechanical
production the other business of the city
will not support the people and keep the
houses in repair.
The mechanics like others have been
misled by the idea that political dishon-
esty is the sole cause of commercial de-
cline. Granting all that is claimed by |

DOWN BRAKES.

The municipal budget appropriates
nearly thirty thousand dollars for the
Department Of Assessments. The Legis-
lature passed law relieving the city of
the duties appertaining to this branch of
the government, and imposing them on
the State Board of Assessors-the work to
cost the city sum comparatively nomi-
nal. This scheme was reform clamor-
ously demanded by the opposition both
on the score of economy, obviating as it
does the multiplication of expensive Off
ces, and because it would render uniform
the State and municipal assessment rolls,
the discrepancies of which have long been
a sore grievance to our citizens.
Now this was an opening for practical
retrenchment which no one doubted the
Democratic city fathers would eagerly
seize as means to illustrate their reform
teachings But they did not. In fact,
they are likely to become worse back
sliders than their denounced and decried
Republican rivals, in that they are caus-
ing the expendit ure of both the budget
and legislative appropriations. 1t is al
legged that the Administrator and his staff
are proceeding with the work of assessing
the community, while it is of public
notoriety that the State assessors are en-
gagged in identically the same labors.
Really we have little concern who COM
piles the tableau for Mr.. Pilsbury's next
campaign against the taxpayers strong
boxes, excepting to know that it is equit-
ably made up and at the smallest cost
but we, in common with all others whose
pockets are effected, are much concerned
to see double outlay for double and dis
agreeing levies, which can only result in
loss and annoyance to the community.
We hope a decision will be made at once
on this question of conflicting authority;
and suggest that the talented young Dem
ocratic chieftain who fills the City Attor-
ney's Office may win laurel leaf or two
by initiating the veteran Attorney Gen
erals vigorous application of the writ of
injunction to his own party friends.

M1ssTATING TIE ORDER OF INJUNCTION.

Illustrating TIE ORDER OF INJUNCTION.
In the Picayune of Friday morning, in
the course OF an article on legislation, the
following paragraph appears:
The matter is brought before Judge Haw.
kins, and with a few sweeps of his gold pen
That remarkable person arranges it at
once, and what is still more strange, makes
law OF that which was not law before.
1t is not perfectly clear what the Plea
y,tne means, but it does not state the mat
ter correctly. 1t would be strange if the
court made law that twas not law before"
or even if it was law before, courts do not
make laws. They annull, sustain or ex-
plain them. In declaring what the law is
and pruning from it enactments that are
not law the court is not superior to the
Legislature, as that paragraph would in
dicate, but enforces the legislative will
according as that will conforms with the
commands of the people expressed in the
constitution. In exercising this authority
the court is the administrator of the
puDllc Will.
In the case presented the Attorney Gen
eral, to relieve the State from the compli-
cation and embarrassment caused by the
publication of two appropriation bills,
comes before the court alleging both bills
to be unconstitutional. He asks the court
to declare what is law and what is not law.
This the court has done in the order en-
joining payment of several of the appro-
priations. 1t has not 'smade" any law
pre-existing or otherwise. 1t has not
even gone so far as to say, as it might
do, so much of this bill is law
and so much Of this bill is not law. But
it takes just such portions of the bill as
are contrary to the constitution, and,
therefore, not legally expressions of the
legislative will, and declares them not to
be law.
That may be what the Picayne means.
If so, the last clause should have read
makes no law of that which was not law
before"

Now comes Mr.. Noel Goblet, residing at
