is SO great that they become danger
GUS and have to be silenced by exile
like Packard, or gagged like Wells
and Anderson.
Laws are not only the sequence of
vicious morals, but frequently the
cause. There must be halt; govern
ment must be better and cheaper ad-
ministered, and the burdens of the citi-
zen lightened. Salaries must come
down one-half and the number of off,
ces reduced one-third. Internal inn
provements must be encouraged and
stimulated that there be no such thing
as enforced idleness. Vault doors
must swing open at reasonable and
living rates of interest.
Unless this is done look out for trou-
BILE everywhere. The people are not
desperate, but hunger and cold are not
to be appeased with soft words or smil-
ing faces. Strikes are to be condemned
and put down if possible, but I i'm
agine that the sympathy they will
have will make it dangerous for all
opposers.
Capital must be generous and the
government must be filial in order to
re-establish themselves with labor.
It can be done to mutual advantage
and should not be delayed moment.

LOUISIANA SUPREME COURT.

Various amendments to the rules of
this court were announced by the Chief
Justice. We give, as amended, those
portions affected by the changes
RULE II.
The party applying for the filing OF
a transcript of the record in cause in
this court must first tender to the
clerk his bond, with satisfactory secur-
ity, in the sum of $50 for the payment
of such fees as may accrue to the clerk,
or deposit with the latter, in place of
such bond, the sum of 500.
RULE ".
2. Records shall, in all cases, be re-
ceipted for on withdrawal. They
should be returned to the Office within
a reasonable time, and must be SO re-
turned on the requisition of the clerk.
No record shall be withdrawn from
the clerks Office after final decree
therein made has become executory,
except upon written application to the
court therefor, and the order of the
court made thereon.
RULE X.
2. Such motions shall set forth dis
tinctly all the grounds relied on and on
their trial shall be argued only in print
ed briefs, which must conform in char
acter and number to the requirements
stated in sections first and second of
rule vii.
RULE XII.
I. The court will entertain no appli-
cation for writ OF prohibition, unless
previous notice of intention to make
such application shall have been given
to the opposite party.
oil
and prohibition and rules to show
cause shall be fixed and submitted on
printed briefs, and without oral argu-
ment.

sion to keep up with the business that
will come before the court.
s. Suits In excess of 81 1000 will be
subject to two appeals, from the district
to the circuit and from the circuit to
the supreme court.
z. The course of procedure will in
crease the costs of litigation four fold.
8. The territory of the district courts
will be too small. To divide the State
into forty-five districts would be about
one parish to district, and to divide
it into thirty there would not be ex-
ceeding two.
8. Four jury terms in each parish
would double the criminal expenses.
If economy was the motive OF the
amendment the conclusion must have
been reached by some new rule of
arithmetic. Evidently twice two did
not make four with that legislature.

EXECUTIVE PATRONAGE.
New Orleans Daily Delta.l


It is generally known throughout
the State, although little has been said
about it, that the Executive patronage
in Louisiana has been largely increased
since 1868, and that the office of Gov
ernor is one of much more power and
consequently of much more importance
than it was formerly. That is the
excuse given by politicians and Office
seekers for the increase in the salary
and emOluments of the Office since the
war. In ante-bellum times its patron
age was limited, its salary moderate
and its duties very few and unimpor-
tant, in fact almost nominal. The
Secretary of State and the Governors
private secretary performed nearly
all Of the duties attached to the place,
the Governors presence at the Capitol
being only occasionally necessary for
the purpose of affiXing his signature
to official documents requiring that
formality. It is a notorious fact that,
for months at time, the Governors of
Louisiana, prior to the war, never
crossed the door-sill OF the Capitol at
Baton Rouge and yet the business of
the State went ON just as if they had
been on the spot. With the surrender
of the Confederate armies, a new state
of things came into existence, and
under the constitution of 1865 it was
found that large additions had been
made to the Governors functions and
patronage for the purpose of perpetual
ing the power of the party electing
him and enriching its individual men,
bers. Since the expulsion of the Re-
publican party from the State admin
istration Il portion of the patronage
then at the disposal of the Governor
may have been withdrawn from him
and placed elsewhere, but there are
still too many appointments in his
gift. And considering the character of
some of those he has made, it is evident
still further abridged with advantage
to the people, and ought to be restored
to those in whose hands it can be most
safely lodged under our system of
government, viz: the voters of the
State. This is one of the indispensable
reforms called for at the present time
and should be one of the first effected.
We are not sure but that the appoint
ment of the Judges of the Supreme
and other courts should be taken from
the Governor and that they should be
elected by the people. 1t is very we'll
known that there were too intimate
relations between the Ludeling bench
and the administrations of Warmoth
and kellogg, and that every case that
came before it of a political character
or bearing, was decided as the Executive
desired. And it is possible enough
that an understanding which should
not exist between the executive and
judicial departments, may hereafter
The Ouachita telegraph. [volume] (Monroe, La.) 1865-1889, 1878-06-07

be established as habitual condition.
We do not, however, think the judi
ciary of to-day would by any means
go as far as their predecessors did in
carrying out, in their sphere, the
policy of the Executive, but we do
think an entire divorce of the two
departments would, under present
circumstances and if only as temper
ary measure, be beneficial to the peo-
pie of the State. And this is one reason
why we think a convention of the peo-
pie to establish a new constitution
should be held at an early period. In
recent issue of the OUACHITA TELE-
GRAPH that the amendments to the
constitution proposed by the Legisla-
ture at its last session and to be SUBJ
mitted to the people at the next cleo
ton, providing for the repeal of the
article of the present constitution which
declares that stthe Chief Justice and
Associate Justices shall be appointed
by the Governor with the advice and
consent of the Senate" does notdeclare
whether these Justices are henceforth,
in the event that the amendment shall
be adopted, shall be appointed or elect
ed. This is strange oversight, if in
deed, it be one. There are many other
changes in the constitution which
have been proposed, some of which
are thought to be desirable and others
absolutely necessary. 1t is apparent to
every observing man that the balance
and checks of our constitution have
been disturbed and ought to be restored.
TO accomplish that and effect the
changes of the organic law demanded
by the circumstances of the people at
the present time, a convention of the
people appears to be an absolute pre-
reuuiSite
