AMONG the ISRAFLTTES.


The suggestion of a st. Louis rabbi IA
vOring the celebration of the Jewish feast
of the dedication on the 18th December IN
order to enable the Hebrew and Christian
children to enjoy a holiday on the same
day, does not appear TO meet with very
general approval. One Of our
most prominent and popular Israelitish
fell0w-citiZens was sounded upon this
question yesterday by a MORNING NEWS
man. but his only reply at first was a
smile.
While looking into the matter the re-
porter was referred to an article in the
last number of the American HebrelC, OF
New York, bearing directly upon the sub
ject. This paper, in the course of its re-
marks. makes the point that Christmas
is a Christian. religious festival, and says
that Jewish children cannot cOnsclen-
tiously be allowed to take part in the fes-
tiyities Of the day.

All these editorials speak the same LAM

They laud the virtue OF McEnery to the

Last Saturday afternoon about sun

chimney Of a small house near the
railroad had caught. Tuesday about II

This time it was the roof of MIR. Du-

caught from spark from the chimney.

St. Landry democrat., 1883-12-08

Gov. McEnery in message to the leg
islature, recommended that an amend
.nent be submitted changing the debt
ordinance of the Constitution of 1879, so
the bonahollers should receive 4 per
cent instead of 8, for fifteen years"
which amounts to an extra tax OF $500
900 annually. By aid OF the Republican
vote this was carried through the legis-
1ature. and is to be submitted to the peo-
nile for adoption at next election. The
Democracy of st. Landry, in convention
assembled, have just condemned this
measure Of the Governor, and instructed
their executive committee to print all
election tickets against 1t.
Some Of the McEnery organs have
stoutly detained against the action OF
our Parish Executive Committee in
submitting to the people the question
..Who shall represent them in the State
Convention ~ These same organ grim
ders, however, have only the most ex-
trayagant praise for those Executive
Committees which referred this same
nnestion to Chairmen of SHINY attended
mass meetings in other parishes. The
charge has been made before, we be-
lieve, that the McEnery crowd have
decided weakness for ring methods and
well devised system of bosses. Popular
suffrage seems to be their horror.-Eas
