can not be done, and is most likely not
to be attempted, as other work will be
pressing. In scme of our rambles and
rides in certain portions of the State
we saw pursued in regard to corn the
same system that our fathers forty years
ago pursued. The land was "listed,"
that is, two shallow burrows thrown
back to back, these We're crossed so that
the hills were five feet apart each way
The corn dropped in the cheeks and COW
cred with the hoe. The spaces between
were left unplowed to the time when
the corn got high enough to bear the
mouldboard. But it was July before
that event occurred; the drought was
to be sure some excuse No manure
was used. On inquiry, the answer was,
"not barrel of poor corn; we were
ruined by the drought" There it is,
all the failures, from Incidence and ig-
norance, are set down as the fault of
the season. Not a mile away. on SINH
lar soil, and of course laboring under
the same climatic influences, the yield
per acre was from eight to ten barrels.
Why? because in this case, the land
has been highly MANFRED, deeply plow-
ed, put in good order, the corn drilled
in, the rows four feet apart and the
plants thinned SO as to stand 16 to 90
inches apart in the rows. A good SUI
perphosphate, or nitrogenized bone dust
applied at the rate of $50 to 200 pounds
per acre, then narrowed directly with
the Thomas Harrow. This was repeated
every ten days until the corn got too
high to harrow. After this it got
only two workings with the Iron Beam
Shovel Plow. Query-If it had been
more highly MANFRED would there not
have been much larger yield? Ex-
perience and facts answer, yes. Then
too, it left the land in good plight for
wheat and the production of large
grass crop. Neither of these products
would the badly managed field yield -
But these examples are every day spread
before our farmers and not needed, for

ty, or portion of the crop at least, but
not before the ground has been got in

above. This crop can only be made re-

DEMOCRATIC POLICY.
The Shreveport Times saws:

AAC AchASNSPoAS tHtIo
The Democracy of Mississippi propose to
invite to their convention Thurman, Hen
bricks and Hill to deliver addresses. There
is no objection to this. save that it is a waste
of ammunition. In Mississippi, as in Lou
isiana. the issue is between the negroes, led
by white rascals, and the white people.
Fine speeches, therefore, there and here are
utterly useless. What is necessary in Mis-
sisppi and Louisiana is the thorough and
rigid organization OF the whites tor self
protection and the hardest sort of work
done in the most determined manner. What
is needed is hard workers.
In this there is a commendable honesty
in foreshadowing the Democratic policy
to be pursued in the coming campaigns.
The Democratic party, as such, can not
progress. 1t is anchored to the dead
weights of the rebellion, State rights
supremacy and the constitution as it was
before amendment, if it respects the con-
stitution at all. IN this State it will start
again and for all time on the narrow plat
form of white mans party. When the
leaders as above speak OF the rigid or
ganization OF the whites for self protection
and the hardest sort OF work done in the
most determined manner We Well know
that the White League is to be revived,
and that the hard work to be done in {.
determined manner, is the work that Or
ganization laid out aud engaged in q
wear ago. With such ends in view
on the part of our Confederate Democracy,
speeches of Thurman and Hendricks will
certainly avail nothing toward making
their party respectable in the South. Ben
Hill may chime in occasionally with his
red hot abuses Of decent men, but the
Confederate Democrats of Louisiana and
Mississippi have no use for statesmen.
They propose to fight on the color line,
as they commenced in 1860. Jefferson
Davis said in one Of his late agricultural
and color line essays in Texas that the
negro majority was SO large in Mississippi
that he despaired of ever redeeming that
State by the ballot. The only savior Mr..
Davis knows is of the Democratic redeem
er, and he may well despair of salvation

THE EAST FELICIANA MURDER CASE.

THE EAST FELICIANA MURDER CASE.
The acquittal Of the alleged murderers
of Mr.. Hall, in East Feliciana, is by no
means without numerous precedents in
the criminal jurisprudence Of Louisiana.
The jury was composed of colored men,
but they behave no better nor worse than
their white fellow-citizens have done in
similar cases time out of.mind But they
are not justified for their wrong doing
nevertheless, by showing that white me n
also protect their friends from the penal
ties imposed by the law in those cases
where party feeling caused the orig inal
strife. The streets of New Orleans abound
with unpunlshed murderers, and the
country parishes can make proportion
ate showing.
We have called the attention of our law
makers to the serious defects in our Jury
laws at the beginning of nearly every ses-
sion of the Legislature, and two or three
years ago some partial reforms were in
troduced. But the work has not been
sufficiently thorough. 1t would be physic-
ally impossible to convict m an in any
Of the Red river parishes for the political
murders which have disgraced that fair
section of the commonwealth. Though
we might send Jove himself to sit as Judge
and call the angels as witnesses, jury
impanneled under any law of this State
during the past fifty years would acquit
them instantly without the slightest re-
gard to the law and evidence. The prin-
ciple that it is better that many guilty
parties escape than enc one innocent man
unjustly punished, has been stretched as
a cloak over all the criminals who have
either personal or political friends
A failure to rigidly punish violations
of the law naturally begets other
violations, for the injured man will
take vengeance in his own hands if
it is not accorded him by law. He
pursues the slayer of his br other, his
father or his friend with the greater alac-
rity, as he believes he will be protected by
the same custom which has denied him
justice. Both the law and the public SEN
timent should be radically changed. It
is heinous offense to steal loaf of bread
from poor family, but the husband and
father who supplies the whole food, cloth
ing and education of the same family
may be removed by the assassin's knife or
bullet, and the murderer set free by one
of the burlesque affairs which we call
jury trial.
If matters 60 on in this manner for
another decade or so, it may become fash
ionable to lynch juries who acquit against
the evidence of common sense. If the
laws and the practice under them fail in
the purpose which justice exacts, some
thing else will have to be tried, for the
people are really above law, especially
when it is degraded to the base occupied
by our criminal code, as administered by
the average jury.

through such source. The Confederate
chieftain does not delude himself with
the idea that colored men will ever act
with party whose principal articles OF
faith are the subjugation of the colored
man and the denial to him of rights OF
manhood decreed by God and vouchsafed
by constitution amended by the Repub-
lican party, and so Mr.. Davis does not
mince his words. He naturally gives up
Democracy in States which have major
ity of colored voters, and the Shreveport
Times, in advance of the humbug OF
party platform, falls back upon the old
plan Of Republican determination, saying
that Thurman and Hendricks speeches
are utterly useless. OF course we know
that, and the Times will also find that the
color line and White League policy will
be worse than useless in a national con-
test.
The world has progressed, notwith-
standing the fact that barbarians still live.
Our own government has made rapid
strides forward within the last twelve
years. God and humanity and equal
rights are its principal tenets, and polit-
ical party ignoring such claims can not
expect to live. The Times is fond of
speaking of white men who respect the
laws of the government under which we
live as "white rascais." Such assertions
will not deter men from their duty. They
come from source which acknowledges
argument as useless, and going for moth
ing the ISLANDERS go for what they are
worth.
