the pursuit of gamef they are less likely to
be caught In the bIafnbles.
The appellant. he concluded, must go furth
er than showing that In the strictest sense of
the words the pain inflicted by cutting Is not
necessary for the good OF the animal or the
use Of man, he must show that the act was
purposeless and without any Interior inten-
ton to benefit the bird or to make 1t more
happy In after life or more useful to man
kind
In spite of these arguments, Kelly, G. b.,
gave strong judgment against the par
ties implicated Id the cutting. He said
that cutting of combs involved not only cru
city but torture. The excision of the nerves
from the animals head must cause narrowing
pain. This is shown by the wincing and bob
bling OF the bird under the operation. Is there
any reason or purpose to legalize or justify
an act of such extreme barbarity. If 1t Is to
fit them for fighting this Is Illegal now. 1t
was once legal. AS this cutting does not better
fit the animal for the use of man or for any
lawful purpose, 1t ID wholly unjustifiable and
lis a criminal act within the statute.
Such is tho decision of the Court of Ex-
chequer In England, In statute from which
our Picay,ne Justirlian compiled the Louist-
ana statute on cruelty to animals. In behalf
of the gallinaclous tribe, we may now expect

Corbfn's manifesto against the Jews was
based largely upon the f;acb, as hs asserted,
that they wanted more for their money than
other people, and grunbled too much at what
they did get. It seems that 1t would have
been nearer the truth to have said that they
wanted something for their money. II cor

THE TIMES FACTS

The Times has another hobby besides that
of suing the State of Louisiana In the United
States Court and executing writs of fieri
satisfy the claim of 7sper cent interest on the
consolidated bonds. !
This other hobby Is sewerage as an infali-
bic preventive OF epidemics. Underground
sewerage through porous, alluvial soil, In
which the excavations for the basement Of
houses cannot be made without their being
Immediately filled with water, and In flat
plain where the declination from the river to
the swamp In no place exceeds five or six
feet. Sewers, to be constructed of bricks and
cement, at cost of millions. These sewers
will secure New Orleans against recurrence
of epidem.cs.
This Is the Times theory, its hobby, Its
mania, on the sanitary question But what
are Its facts For these the Times draws on
its imagination. Its inventive power On in
vestigation they prove to be fctions. not
facts.
The latest exercise Of its inventive power in
this direction is remarkable
First, the assertion Is made that for wears
past the first cases OF yellow fever in this city
have invariably occurred in the worst drained
portion OF the city. The reverse is a fact
known to every man. woman and child In the
city.
The lowest and most imper fectly drained
portion OF the city lies within the district en-
eraced between st. Joseph and Common
streets In the First and between Bienville and
toulouse streets in the Second District. The

Mr.. Cyrus W. Field recently gave some In
terestng Information I'd correspondent OIL
the New York Herald relative TO the SUCCESS
OF the elevated railroads Of that city He
congratulates himself that Providence has
been on the side OF theienterprise from the
start, inasmuch as iron was purchased at a
fabulously low figure and when the roads
were constructed 1--WE could hire four men for
the price OF one" Mr. Field also thinks there
was a special providence in the fact that he
purchased his stock par value $l000--for
1926, while Mr.. Tllden paid $500 per share for
his. The latter gentleman, he says, has since
sold out, realizing more than q million dol
lars from the speculation. Mr.. Field does not
think 1t would be good policy to reduce the
fare to five cents, as he believes that he Is en-
titled to 10 per cent dividend. This view, rea-
sonable as 1t appears, does not bear inspec-
tton, as 10 per cent dividend really means
60 per cent on the investment Many people
In New York think this too mueh, but Mr..
Field, with stubborn trust In Providence,
beautiful to behold insists upon continuing
the present rate Of fare He also believes
that no other company should be allowed to
build an elevated road until 1t has first sue
cessfully competed for the privilege at public
auction. Whether o special providence will
enforce this view remains to be seen.

The Republicans, 1t would seem, have de-
four Southern States. The others will be
wisely let alone and allowed to vote as they
choose. These four unfortunate States are
North Carolina, Florida, Missouri and Ken
lucky. In the late election, the Republicans
gained q little in North Carolina, result due
principally to the fact that many Democrats
remained at home. As the Republicans still
control the solid negro vote of that State, they
cherish the fond but delusive hone that thew
may be able to carry that State some dav or
other. In Florida also, the Republicans have
made several little spurts lately The Demo-
cratic majority in 1878 was by no means as
large as was expected. and the Republicans
believe that Z they are able to keep the party
together they can accomplish something In
the city election In jacksonville. the largest
town OF the State, the Republicans were sue
cessfal. the other day, for the first time since
1875. As for kentucky and Missouri, it is hard
to say what the Republicans mean BY their
declarations that they will contest these
States. Both of then are reliably Democratic
by about 10000. and there is no prominent
issue likely to change the result. In Missouri
there are a few Greenbaesers allied with the
Republicans, but their votes cannot affect the
result. The stupid boast Of the local Repub-
Acan press is probably intended only to keep
the party together In these States aud secure

Union City Is the name uf q little town UP
In Tennessee that has the yellow fever scare
on 1t very bad 1t issued, a short time ago,
q general quarantine against the world. 1t
appears, however, that, Notwithstanding all
precautions, several outsiders slipped into
Union City and took up their residence there.
This has necessarily created the greatest
alarm, and the people of Union City have de-
termined to enforce In earnest shots
quarantine. For this purpose meeting was
held In Union City the other day, and suffi-
Gent sum of money secured to furnish a
company Of quarantine guards with arms.
These arms have arrived, and the e. G. g,
G.'s have been supplied with them, Out
siders and aliens are accordingly warned to
respect Union City's quarantine and stay
away from that village, unless they like the
flavor OF buckshot and rifle balls.

city, is Embraced in tho district lying above
Melpomene, including nearly the whole OF the
Fourth District. In tie greater portion Of
this district the surface is several feet above
that Of the space between Triton Walk and
Canal.
After heavy rain you may walk along the
streets without wetting your Shoes when
lower down, In Julia Girod, Poydras, you will

And yet we affirm, without the fear Of dis
pute or refutation, that for several years past
the fret cases of yellow fever that have oc-
cured In this city have been found within the
limits Indicated as Including the highest and
best drained portion Of the city.
y Secondly The Times asserts that the same
fact Of feature has been developed In the re-
cent experience d Memphis that the first
cases occurred In b low and the worst drained
portion Of the towh.
Per contra, We have the statement OF DR.
Laggart, Of that town. that the residence of
Judge Ray, where the first fatal cases oc-
Cured, Is situated on the highest elevation In
the town. the farthest from any swamps or
low grounds, and the least exposed to mala-
rial exhalations.
Thrdly-The Times points proudly to the
effects Of underground sewerage in pro-
noting the ihealthfulness of Chicago,
whereas Its namesake, the Chicago Times,
charges this sewerage with the chief respon-
slbility for the prevalence OF malarlal dis
eases, as the source Of offensive, unhealthful
exhaatIons, which are collected and concen-
trated In these sewers and seeped through
the porous soil through which they are con-
structed-

proofs Of the sanitary benefits Of It's under

The Colfax Chronicle Is scarcely entitled &c
notice of lis ill-natured comment on the
course Of the managing editor of the DEMO
