CLARA Louise Kellogg has discovered
"a thousand melodies unheard before"
In Japanese music. and she proposes to
tell all about them in the forthcoming
summer holiday number Of Scribner's
Monthly. She says she first became in
terested in this music, which she as
sures us is very original and really
beautiful, while o company Of Japanese
jugglers were performing in New York
several years ago. One night. at the
Academy Of Music, she discovered run
ming through the chaos Of sounds made
by the orchestra OF tom. toms and ket-
tle-drums two exquisite melodies. Night
after night she returned to hear them
till she learned them and wrote them
down, and she intends to publish them
in Scribner's Monthly,
Just now Japanese art is the fashion
able lunacy and it may be either that
Miss Kellogg Is possessed by 1t, or that
she is merely trying to put shekels in
her pocket by pandering to it in others.
Still, there Is a remote chance that the
melody is there. At all events; she is
a fine writer and anything she may
have to say about music will be interest
ing to musical people.

THE EPIDEMIC or FRAUD.

And now an investigation of the az
fairs of the Charter Oak Life Insurance
Company Of Connecticut shows q deficit
OF $4,000 900. Population and robbery
by public officials, managers OF corpora
tions and private business men have
become moral. or rather we should
say an immoral, epidemic, and the pesti-
lence is spreading. There seems to be no
power In the land to bring these classes
Of malefaotors to justice. and scarcely q
week passes that some shining example
is not furnished society of successful
official or business swindle.
Is anybody green enough to
suppose that the managers OF the
Charter Oak Life Insurance Conn
pany will be held to reckoning2 Such
q contamination would be a wonder in
deed, unless there Is O vigor In tho law
Of Connecticut unknown to the enfee-
bled and emasculated Jurisprudence of
spreading to every rank and avocation
OF society, and every public and private
interest appeals to the ministers and tri-
bunals of the law to interpose vigorous
action to check it. This epidemic, en-
gendered in the fe Id and filthy atmos-
phere and cesspo u of Radical politics
and government, and which is poison
ing civilization itself, cannot be checked
by the execution Of o few ignorant and
brutal negro murderers, or by the rigid
punishment of pickpockets and
burglars. If the law of Louisiana, and
indeed of other States, cannot bring to
justice the rascals who have used public
offices and authority to rob the people.
or the false and swindling flduciaries
entrusted with the concerns of corpora
tions, then 1t is a farce and q failure,
Its executions are murder, and its
sentences more criminal than the
deeds Of the miserable wretohes 1t
consigns TO prison. It Is not the
slums of society that need cleansing
and publication. These always have
existed and always will exist. It is the
higher ranks Of society that need expur-
gatien, and 1t is in these upper regions,
rank and foul with perjury, fraud and
breaches Of trust, that the lightnings and
the thun ders of the law should flash
and strike.
II q miserable and ragged wretch,
without. character or friends, may be
sent to prison for robbing till, while
ex.iudges Of the Supreme Court who have
helped themselves out of the treasury,
and Radical spectators who have pill
fered over 100000 Of the public money,
cannot be held to an account; and
the criminal courts Of the State cannot
hold an ex-ofiicial who has robbed the
State of records of incalculable value,
proving the guilt of criminals, thieves
and swindlers who go scott free, what

A sORR0WrUL EXTINCTION OF AN
HONORED NAME.

What melancholy and distressful
tragedy Is that which has recently diff
fused universal sorrow though society
in Selma. Alabama, and by which the
South has been deprived Of one Of the
heroes of our civil war, and a historical
name Of great brilliancy! We refer to
the killing Of Capt. 7. APP Catesby
Jones by one of his neighbors. This
name Is associated with the two
brightest naval exploits in our two
great wars. The father of Capt. Jones
was the hero of the gunboat fight near
the head of Lake Borgne, in December,
1914, an affair of the most gallant and
sanguinary character, and which had
an important influence on the
subsequent glorious events Of that
memorable campaign which closed with
the repulse and expulsion Of the British
army from this State. With five little
schooners which had been run aground,
armed with a few cannon and about 1870
men, the then Lieut.. Jones fought a force
OF English sailors and marines Of 1900
men, who attacked the little fleet in
large boats, with .carronades in their
bows, and inflicted on them loss of
several hundred killed and wounded.
Jones and his feeble crews were never
captured until all his officers were cut
or SHOT down, including the gallant
commander, by the boarding parties
which, in overwhelming force, man
aged to reach these little helpless and
unmanageable vessels.
The name of APP Catesby Jones
was thus made one Of the brightest and
most honored in our naval annals.
This name and the heroic qualities
which made it renowned were
worthily borne and represented by the
late unfortunate victim Of personal
brawl at Selma. Cap. Jones. the oldest
son OF Commodore Jones whose exploits
in 1914 we. have described, was the
captain and executive officer in
the memorable combat Of the Vir-
ginia off Norfolk, in 1862, when
such enormous loss and destruction
were inflicted upon the strongest ships
Of the Federal navy by a hastily con-

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN EMBEzzLE-
MENT AND POLITICS.

We are beginning to entertain very
great admiration for Mr.. Geo. B. John
son. He seems, indeed, to be the only
man of vim and dash our revolutionary
politics have developed. We began by
ranking him as vulgar broiler and
embezzler; but man who holds the
whole State government at bay, pulls it
out of one court and into another at
pleasure, boasts Of the fact that he holds
possession Of State records of great
value and importance-vital in fact to
the civil NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. to pro-
duce them. cody disputes the legality
Of the administration from Governor
down to constable, insults the Superior
Criminal Court. lounges for contempt
few days in elegant apartments with
sumptuous fare at the Parish Prison,
then walks out. pulls the courts nose,
laughs in the courts face, cocks his hat
on one side Of his head and skips off
over the lake to refresh himself with
cool baths and cooler breezes-such
man. we say, challenges our admiration
and excites our applause.
Really, we beg Mr.. Johnson's pardon
for all the hard names we have called
him; he is man Of spirit, a fellow Of
parts. He twists the State Of Louisiana
around his finger and trips up the
courts at will, and is really making q
very amusing thing out Of the embez-
element of the books Of the Auditors
office and a very laughable thing of
the Superior Criminal Court. Mr..
Johnson is no longer a vulgar rogue.
II he were such thing the Superior
Criminal Court could tackle and hold
him. for did not that awful and august
tribunal scoop up and send to
the Penitentiary for twenty-one
years darkey who fired at
and missed another fellow?
Has it not sent regiment or so of pick
| pockets, common rogues and peace
breakers to expiate their vile deeds in
prison? The law is not framed for great
men like Mr.. Johnson; the courts are
| not organized to convict men Of his en-
larged and enlightened schemes Of en-
bezzlement. 1t would be, we presume,
| persecution for past political offenses"
to deal too rigidly with Mr.. Johnson
about this matter. Robbing till or
picking pocket may be penitentiary
offense, but stealing the public records
and thus concealing the evidence Of the

We print In another column OF the
DEMooRATa communication, reproduced
from the Pointe Coupee Pelican, In rela-
tion to the Presidents Southern policy
and the future Of the Democratic party.
The article was written by Col. Il. L..
Claiborne, Of Pointe Coupee, and has
the old Democratic ring, as anything
from the same pen must have. Col.
Claiborne predicts a renewed vitality
for the Democratic party and fresh VIC
tories for its time honored banners. He
is right. The heavens are full of the
signs of victory. There seems to be
little doubt that the States of New
York, New Jersey, Ohio, and even Penn
sylvania, will go Democratic this fall.
Public sentiment everywhere is dis
gusted with what Judge Black denomi-
mates the GREAT FRAUD OF 1876, and there
is no longer doubt that the Eight to
Seven Tribunal, while 1t made Hayes
President, so covered the Republican
party with shame and infamy that it
can never again enlist the sympathies
and following Of majority Of the
American people.

structed and experimental ram. There
has been no more desperate and gallant
naval action In modern times. Admiral
Buchanan, who was on board OF the Vir-
ginia Ia this fight, has assigned to his
executive officer. Capt. APP Catesby
Jones, the chief honors Of that destrue-
tive and sanguinary combat.
It il indeed most pitiable that such q
man should perish in the manner re-
ported, wherein 1t would appear he was
acting the part Of peace maker and
protesting against the encouragement
given by their elders to two little boys
engaged In brutal conflict.

robbery OF the taxpayers of Louisiana
OF half million or more Is politics.
Mr.. Geo. b. Johnson is not an embez-
zler under this enlightened theory; he
is a politician and has q right to pull
the courts nose and laugh in the courts
face; to playfully apply his metaphor
cal toe to the courts metaphorioal coat
tail and TO take drink and skip off.
This, the aspiring youth Of Louisiana
should mark, is what 1t is to be states

On account Of the celebration OF the
Fourth of July, and to afford leisure to
it's employees for participation In the

from journalistic labor to put up beau

The New York Times acknowledges
that 1t Is not prepared to insist upon
mixed schools in New Orleans, or, in
other words, it has the sense to see that
nothing but harm could come Of them
and ventures to intimate as much, but
lacks the candor and courage to come
out openly and say so.
But, as an Offset to this, it goes on to
assume that the whites in control Of the
government are disposed to deny to the
colored people free and ample educa-
tional advantages, and this on the
strength Of the representations OF the
committee Of colored politicians that
recently visited Gov. Nichols In rela-
ton to the school question.
Whatever the real feeling of the
whites in Louisiana may be-" says the
Times, sit is now evident that it, is in
terpreted unfavorably by the more in
telligent blacks, and that these contem-
plate emigration to an extent worthy of
remark"
Not a word of this is true. The true
inwardness of the attempt to bulldoze
Gov. Nichols was a political maneuvre
got up in Packard's interest, and it did
not give expression to the real senti-
ments of the colored masses, who al
most universally, throughout our whole
State, prefer separate schools. Nowhere
in the State, except in this city, are
the schools mixed, nor have they ever
been; here they were made so for a
bad purpose, and solely to irritate race
feeling for political ends. As for the
negro hegira from this Stata, that's all
a myth. We wish we could hope for one
from this city, where thousands OF idle
negroes who should be in the fields are
congregated and serve neither them
selves nor the State.

THE ATTORNEY GENERAL AND THE
COMMITTEE.

| The propriety of the action of the
Legislature at It's last session. at the
time much censured, in providing for
an Assistant Attorney General, has
been fully indicated. No official In
| the State has had larger responsibilities
resting upon him, or more complicated
and arduous duties to perform, than
Attorney General Ogden; he has la
bored with untiring and unflagging en-
ergy, day and night, in their discharge,
and 1t is but simple justice to an able
and conscientious public servant to say
that he has done the State great service.
When the present weight of pressing
affairs is off his shoulders, we under
stand that the Attorney General will
make things lively for that illustrious
band Of public malefaotors who have
been for eight years robbing the State.
It seems that the laws are in many
respects quite defective, and that 1t Is
difficult in some cases to proceed
against the guilty parties. The Radl-
Gals, In fact, were 30 busy making
laws and processes by which and
through which they might rob the peo-
pie and the State, that they paid little
attention to statutes for the punishment
of crime. and their neglect in this regard
has rather embarrassed the law officers
of the government in proceeding against
them.
In this connection we must direct
public attention to the untiring labors
of Senator Stevens Investigating COM
mittee. This committee, composed of
Senator Steven. chairman, Senator
Wheeler and Representatives Aldige,
Leeds, Buck and Desmarais, has been
in almost constant session for several
weeks. It has already brought to light
much information Of general impor-
lance. and 1t will, we have no doubt.
finally discover the whereabouts OF the
books Of the Auditors office.
The proceedings Of this committee.
we observe by our exchanges. are being
watched with great interest, not only
throughout Louisiana, but also In
Texas and Mississippi.
