THE PRESENT JUDICIARY SYS
TEN.

We commend to the perusal of oul
readers, the communication extract
ed from the n. 0. Democrat, signed
"North louisiana" which, in our
humble opinion, ought to set at rest
the objections raised in some quar-
tiers to the judiciary system estab-
lished by the Constitution of 1879.
The objections alluded to are 50
completely refuted by the able writer
that we deem 1t unnecessary to add
anything to the clear arguments he
presents.
The Judiciary Committee of the
Convention of 1879 was composed of
the most distinguished, experienced
and conscientious Jurists of the State,
who gave to the duties assigned them
their most careful consideration.
The system they have created has
been fairly tested and has resulted in
expediting litigation wondrously, and
in diminishing it's cost to the people,
who are directly benefited thereby.
Viewing the system in question
from it's results, we will not pretend
that our journalistic Judgment should
overturn that, which patriotic men
who have devoted q lifetime to their
profession, have created for the gui-
dance of their fellow citizens.
Therefore, until stronger evidence
than superficial newspaper criticism
appears, we will continue heartily
to sustain the judiciary system of the
Constitution of 1879.

NONE IN OUR'N.
Autobiography League

We are constantly being favored
with documents emanating from "The
National Autobiography league"
whose headquarters are located at
No. 7, Warren Street, New York. ,
The principles Of the League, sen
timentally, are beautiful, and, if tri-
umphant in the Eastern and North
ern States, would very likely be pro-
ductve of an infinite amount Of good
to the masses of the people there who
have been supplied with all the man
ufactorics. railroads, etc. etc, which
they needed.
The masses can well afford, at this
juncture, in the section we have nam
ed, to make war on the monopolies
that have made garden of their
former wastes, and busy marts of
trade Of their once dull villages.
We readily understand their posi-
ton. We of the South have ceased
to be proud at least we've postponed
the exhibition of our pride, until such
time as we will have been so awfully
monopolized that every township in
the South will be crossed with the
railways built with the money of
these hideous monopolists. We car
stand, also, any number of monopo-
lies in the shape of manufactures.
| Until we are bothered by too many
railroads and too many manufactures
banks, etc, well not join the Anti.
Monopoly League.
Well stand u considerable amount
of that kind Of oppression ere oul
walls of anguish are heard.
While the monopolists were max
ing the North rich, the South was
being skinned of the few dollars it,
people could rake and scrape by the
frecbooters that the reconstruction
acts had thrown in its every nool
and crook.
Among them were the Wa Ca
monopolists who built no railroads
canals, factories and the like save OF
the paper on which were drafted
the acts passed by Wild Cut Legisla-
lures giving them millions worth OF
bonds for the payment of which the
credit of the "unreconstructed" was
pledged.

Of bis illness, when his strength has

ANEW CHURCH IN SHREVEPORT

Mr.. Jas. Freret, the architect, has
completed the plans ola new Method
list Church to be builtin Shreveport a.
a cost Of $4,000. The pastor Of the
church is to be the Rev. j. Talbot
Sawyer, formerly President of the
New Orleans Christian Association
and pastor of the Louisiana Avenue
Methodist Church. Mr.. Sawyer was
raised in New Orleans, and was once
q teacher here, being always well
known for his intelligence and per-
severance. He is deservedly appre-
ciated in Shreveport, and one gentle
man there contributed $500 towards
the erection Of DR.. Sawyer's new
church. IN. o. Picayune.
The friends Of Mr.. Sawyer, in this
city, many Of whom are not members
ofhis church, will be happy to learn
that the people Of Shreveport appre-
ciate him as he deserves. He is con-
scientious in everything he does and
q Jealous supporter Of his church.
His fearless discharge of duty during
the epidemic Of 1878, won him the
respect Of every rlght-minded Baton
Rougean. The CApIToLIAN is happy
to congratulate him Us the founder of
o handsome church edifice at the me-
tropolis of North Louisiana.

THE TRUE POLICY.


exceptional one. When the State
Government was removed to New
Orleans ii found itself, having no
railroads, larger town than it's trib-
Iutary neigbborhood could enrich OF
develop. Its population and size,
under q strain all the while, went on
increasing, nevertheless, until we
now have no less than 5000 inhabi.
tants, just as the Capitol is being re-
built, on the eve Of the return Of the
State Government, and upon the
completion Of the first railroad con.
nection with the outer world.
Our people have very little capital
which they can afford to take away
from their business; probably less
than any other town of it's size in the
South. They cannot, therefore, be OK.
pected for the present to engage in
any enterprise Of much magnitude.
What they can do, though, is to
prepare actively for the boom that il
upon us, which is being plainly felt.
The property holders must strain
every point to accommodate the in
flux of new corners that the State
Government and the forth coming in
terror and other roads IRE already
bringing us.
They must build from thirty to iif-
ty comfortable residences.
They must embellish the city and
arrange their saloons, hotels, restaur-
ants, etc, in a grander and more pre-
tentious style.
They must establish resorts which
will make our city more attractive /;
that strangers may be induced to
avail themselves Of the railroad and
river facilities to frequent it.
They must realize the necessity of
taxing themselves frequently to ex-
tend the Inequalities of the city to
the organizations Of visitors drawn
here by om beautiful location and
points of attraction afforded by our
State edifices and institutions.
There must be no niggardness ex-
hibited.
Pullbacksm at this juncture will
retard the rapid growth of Baton
Rouge to an incalculable extent.
Petty jealousies must sink before
the necessities of the hour and u unit
ed front must be shown on every i'm
p0rtant occasion.
If our people will do that capital
will come here to help in developing
our industries, and it won't be long
before VIC have factories and q boom
ing inland city.
The ''dog in the mangcr" policy
will be injurious in the extreme.
Let it be discarded by every man,
who, while advancing his own inter-
ests, would like to see his long suffer
ing neighbors get up in the world.

fToo Mueh Whisky.

The whisky product of the Omitted
States for the year 1890 is said to
have been 2, GAO, 900 barrels. AS there
are 1900 drinks in each barrel, allow
ing fifty drinks to gallon and forty
gallons to barrel, the whole number
of drinks in that whisky must have
been A. 080, 900, 900, or eighty-one drinks
for every man, woman and child of our
population. Which is altogether too
much whisky, especially as about one
fourth OF our $4,000. 900 people drink
the whisky of the other three-fourths,
in addition to their own eighty-one
drinks each. However, there is hope
in the fact that it has been shown there
is limit to the amount of whisky the
country can consume. 1t is said that
the distillers are alarmed lest the
amount produced may become SO great
that the prices will fall below cost
Kentucky alone is soon likely to pro-
duce 1000, 900 barrels a year, unless
measures are adopted to restrict pro-
duction. Such restriction is the pur-
pose of the great distillers, who think it
wise to combine in order to crush their
small competitors. The result of COM
bination will be great whisky monop-
oily. The whisky trade might be more
successfully controlled by the govern
ment under such monopoly than at
present, perhaps, were it not for the
fact that the gigantic resources of the
monopoly would afford vast brides to
officers willing to receive them. -NeaU
