that the law under which this swim

lands into the hands of third par

that any blame should attach to
the Governor, nor that there were
any reasons to accuse him as a par

belonging to Louisiana are gliding
out of her possession into the
hands of other parties, with very
little profit to the State.

Gov. Ben. Butler of Massachu

ness that has been going on in
strict, honest, vir.uous Massachu
sets.
In the Asylum for insane and or
phac children, khe has discovered
the fact that children have been
starved to death, that constant dos
es Of opiates are given them to
silence their cries. that their little
bodies have been pitched away in
to holes at night, that they have
been given to physicians for .dissec
ton, in short, practices. that are a
disgrace to humanity and a shame
to any people on earth.

OUR
Pope, who was a student OF man

Ills education forms the common mind"
a sentiment which the people Of
Thibodaux seem to fully appreciate.
Thibodaux is a town of schools,
offering today better educational
advantages than any of its sizo in
Louisiana. That the boast is not
in vain, l propose to give to the
readers of the SENTINEL u succinct
account of recent visit made to
the various schools in the corpora
ton, beginning with the
GUION ACADEMY.
The Academy is a public school,,
maintained ten months annually
by taxation, by donations from the
Peabody fun, and Us entertain
ments given by the children. The
teachers are Mr.. L.. +. Michalet.
principal Miss Clara Levron, first
assistant Mrs. Emma Lambert,
second assistant, and Mrs. Clara
Stewart, third assistant. The roll
shows a total of 139 boys and girls,
with an average attendance of 1874
The building is Of brick, two sto
ries high built upon a lot which is
the gift of the late Judge Guion.
The spacious rooms and grounds
are kept neat by the pupils, who
take much pride in their alma ma
ter, but the building itself is old,
and, like old folks, like all things
old, it is not as solid as il it's prime.
The principal and the third assis
tant occupy the second floor, which
is not divided into rooms, the re
suit Of this arrangement being very
unsatisfactory. These teachers com
plain that, although the strictest
discipline is maintained, when
hearing their classes it is sometimes
almost impossible for them to hear,
or to be heard. | hope the direc
tors will give this matter due con
slderation before the end of the
session. There are, in this room,
Sc boys, Of whom Louis Blum,
Adolphe Breaux, Wilfred Guedry,
Paul Thibudaux, Thomas Pier
son and Walter McEyers are
the most Industrious. Eddie
McCulla is the best boy, always
quiet and studious.
The studies pursued by the first
composed of Louis Blum.
Zach. Champagne, Ulysse Gaeary,
John Walker and Raoul Cham
are geography, arithmetic.
spelling, familiar science, reading,
book keeping, history and gram
mar. These boys are gentlemanly
n bearing, obedient and respectful
o their teachers, courteous and to
heir school mates. A harsh word
las never been known to escape
heir lips since the present princi
,al has been in charge.
In Miss Levron's room there are
Is girls Minnie Thompson, Emily
,iviere and Myrtle Robichaux con
tituting the first class. The most
tndlOus are Minnie Thompson,
Riviere, Myrtle Robichaux,
Brand, Louise Thibodaux,
Marx, Hannah Hof

The killing Of DAVIS by Phil.
Thompson Junior in Kentucky is
another of those deplorable affairs
that occasionally happen in
this country. The law affords no
remedy for a maj whose home has
been invaded by a villain, and rem
dered wretched and miserable, by
the wiles and Vaccinations OF a
scoundrel.
The shot gun or the pistol seems
to be the only remedy by which
the destroyed honor Of a man can
be effaced.
1t is Il fearful remedy, but one
that Gems 10 be sanctioned by the
almost universal sentiment of the
people of the United States.
Anything that the laws would
lnfict would be laughed to scorn
by the invader Of the sauctity of a
mans home.
Hence mon will seek such relief
as he can find, and blood will be
shed until such outrages cease.

1t has been very apparent to any
careful observer that the mercantile
business has been overdone in this
country during the past year or so.
Too many have been engaged in the
business and too heavy stocks have
been carried. The supply has exceed
ed the demand. A hasty conclusion
from this state of things would be that
it is all the better for the people, that
hard competition brings lower prices;
but there can be too much of good
thing. When competition becomes so
keen that goods are offered for their
cost price or less, then there is danger
ahead for somebody. But we need
never expect to see the various branch.
es of trade kept in exact equilibrium.
Excess of supply and activity in de.
mand will continue to follow each
other, flush times will follow times of
depression; prudent and calculating
business houses will stem the sea
through trough and billow while the
restless, the careless, the oversanguine
will 60 under. The lesson prominent
just now is that the various branches
of the mercantile trade are now fully
represented all over the country. Any
who attempt to crowd in just now will
have hard race before them.

Ben Buffers speech on being re.nom.
mated as Democratic candidate for
Governor of Massachusetts is charac.
teristic of the man. He got off one OF
the most emphatic endorsements Of
himself that ever a man had the can
dor to utter. He showed deep con-
Germ for the reputation of his state
and seemed greatly distressed over the
condition of the poor. So great was
his modesty that he was willing to talk
mostly about himself and so deep was
his spirit of self sacrifice that he ex-
pressed himself willing to be reelected
governor of Massachusetts. Evidently
the dear people have a warm place in
the affections of Governor Butler-just
at the present time.
