Cash on Delivery.
Monroe Bulletin.

All cash enterprises, railroads, steam
boats, telegraphs, telephones and ex-
presses, are growing rich on small prof
its in ready money. What is dug out
of the ground supports them all but
vet by extortion, interest and middle
men, it is a hard matter for the great
majority of the diggers to keep soul and
body together. Achange is a necessity,
and the good old rule make your mo-
ney and then spend it," or 'spay as you
go,y is being revived by farmers them
selves, and nothing should be allowed
to interpose to discourage or break 1t
up. What you cannot buy for cash
make it virtue to do without. Fear
debt as an eleventh commandment. Let
trade come to cash basis. All parties
will be mutually benefited. The cost
of living will be reduced and the profits
of merchants curtailed. Making mort
cages will be a thing Of the past and
running attachments an obsolete pro-
cess. To be able to plant according to
the adaptation Of the land and sell IN
the market of ones choice is the highest
right Of a freeman. Any debt or PRIV
ilege that debars it makes the produ-
Ger slave and the holder a master.
Free lands and free products are just as
much essential to freedom as free
! bodies.

Another Phase of Act 50.
IN. o. Picayune.l

There has been some discussion in the
press over the report OF the Senate
Committee on the method of executing
act So. We do not see, however, that
the main points of the report have been
controverted in any respect. That all
members of the board were guilty of
bad intentions no one has claimed, but
that the manner and method OF carry
ing out The act was not such as to pro-
tect the public interests is beyond
question. We do not suppose for a mo-
ment that the committee acted without
having fully satisfied themselves of the
facts of the case, and at the proper
time they will doubtless convince the
public of that.
But in the meantime we desire to call
attention to some Developments that
are not contained in the report of the
committee, but which will doubtless
yet be investigated and laid before the
people of the State. Two Of the claim
ants under the act have stated to the
editor OF the iPcayune that they We're
called upon to give up 25 per cent. OF
for attorneys fees which they had
agreed to pay, and the other Is per cent.
was for incidental expenses in
getting the bill through the Legislature.
These two gentlemen had valid claims
for services rendered the State, and
were entitled to some compensation /;
nor were they parties to any corrupt
bargain. But they were placed finally
under kind of compulsion, at the de-
livery of the certificates, to contribute
Is per cent. of their claims said to have
been used for the purpose of ''infiuenc-
ingn the Legislature to pass the act.
Rumors have been rife for a long
time as to the recipients Of this fund
and it would, we think, be comparative
ly easy to trace the disbursements. We
know from reliable testimony of some
$4,000 that was turned over to a prom
inent citizen for account of this "inci-
dental expense fund.-" and it the Others
did not contribute in proportion ther
the parties who gaeP up this were
grossly deceived.
"The truth is,n said one of these gen.
tlemen 'sthere was a great deal o
crookedness about this bill, and those
who had honest claims and honest pur
poses were dragged into a miserable lot
of jobbery which they did not sanction
and We're poWerless at the time t.

In another column will be found a
report of an investigating committee
appointed by the last Legislatnre ito
investigate the workings of the Board
appointed under Act No. SO approved
April 10, 1892
tits a terrible arraignment of the
acts of that Board and demands the
careful scrutiny of every taxpayer in
Louisiana.
1t will be only just however to allow
the accused parties time to reply to
these accusations, and we would calmly
suggest that the proper way to reply to
said charges is not by calling the mem
hers of the committee liars and vii
lains.
The charges are explicit, made by
proper authority and must be met and
disproved by facts, not otherwise.
In the meantime admitting all the
payments to have been just, was it not
wise Legislature that gave S266,41 81
to collect a less amount OF delinquent
taxes
If the members Of the Legislature of
1880 passed an act to authorize such
payments, then they had better retire
to private life.
The report of the committee is candid,
plain and explicit. The charges are
made in such language, that, 1t wrong,
their error can be shown. xs.
Let the accused have an opportunity
to Eefute and disprove them by plain
and explicit facts
| If the acts of the Board are justified
by law, let the law be produced. Moth
ing else will answer.

THE LOVELY BOTTLES.
By w. O. D.

+E
High on the page of future history,
Engraved in letters of purest light.
To mark the strides our peoples making,
AL! for the love we have for bottles,
Then fear not fathers for our country,
There is a hope that yet survives
Which blots despair and kindles effort:
1t is the love we have for bottles. iii
This will write our future history.
High on the temple to fame that's building
MOrelasting than time, as durable as truth,
The love our boys have for bottles.
The plodding few who stay at home,
And leave the many at their toll,
OF shuffiing cards and throwing dice,
All for the love of hugging bottles.
We real the many daily ISLANDERS,
That these grumbling few are making
At what they choose to call vices,
The love our boys have got for bottles.
These are all tertiary fossil,
SO ignorant of our modern alluvium,
They weep with SORROW at our progress,
In filling baskets with empty bottles
Pure and constant streams are flowing.
= Through worInwinding pipes of metal
From copper bottoms. hot and smoking,
All to fill these lovely bottles.
Here millions gather from all classes.
To snothe and drown the cares of life.
Pass nights from home in easy splendor,
All for the love they have for bottles.
The politicians shining virtues.
AS modest as goats as temperate as Wine
Souls OverflowinS with accommodations kin(
Will help to kiss the blackest bottles.
Then away with all this fuss and buster
About our peoples crimes and vices,
Since all must know that we are safe.-
Our boys love so, the sparkling bottle

A young man in Chicago amused his
fellow clerks in large Office by placing
personal in newspaper, requesting a
young woman to correspond with a
view to matrimony. After he had re-
ceived thirty answers, he finally begged
each by letter to meet him at a street
corner in full view from the Office win
dows, and taxed his ingenuity to sug-
gest separate and Distinguishing mark
by which each lady could proclaim her
identity. One he requested to carry a
green ribbon at her throat, another to
carry a parcel wrapped in a newspaper,
etc. At the appointed time the duped
women began to arrive and for half an
hour the office was convulsed with
laughter as the thirty disconsolate wo.-
men, each making her appointed signal,
came and went. 81. i.3.

a pe4rifed forest has been discovered
in Arizona. For some distance before
reaching it the road is full of small
pieces Of broken branches. A drive of
half an hour briugs one to the heart of
the forest, which, however is hardly
proper to be called a forest" because
the trees are no longer erect; but they
are scattered over the surface OF the
great basin in every conceivable dlrec,
trees lie on every side. Immense trunks
are broken and scattered about an area
of 800 acres. Some Of them are five feet
in diameter. Numerous blocks appear
as fresh as if they had been only recent
" felled.

THE GREAT MATCH MONOPOLY.
How the Abolition of the Stamp Tax Will
Make all of its Members Millionaires.

CLEVELAND, April 25tl.-A man con-
nected with the Diamond Match Com
pany, one of the greatest monopolies IN
the country, said to the Suns cores
pondent to-day tnat when the Tariff bill
was before Congress, Mr.. Swift, Presi-
dent, and G.. C. Barber, Vice-President
OF the company, appeared before the
committees to have the tax on matches
retained. At the time it was thought
that this action was to better the con-
dition of the Diamond Match Company
which had driven all small manufactu-
rers out of business by combining all of
the large match factories in this eoun-
try and Canada. 1t now appears that
this action was taken with the hope
that the opposition it raised would
cause the match tax to be abolished in
stead of continued. The Diamond
Match Company operate immense fac
tories at Akron, Ohio; Wilmington,
Del; Chicago, and other points in the
United States and Canada. At the
Akron factory alone the company
turned out in the month of March
$1,000 gross of matches, a gross being
IA boxes, which retail at eight cents
each. This isfhe greatest amount ever
turned out by this factory in one month.
The profits therefore at the Akron
factory have been about 100000 a year.
When the stamp tax is abolished the
company will pocket clear profit OF
81 A on each gross, which heretofore
went for stamps. This will make an
extra profit of SS2.0S0a a month, or the
enormous sum of $1.000,000 extra profits
in one year. This is for the Akron fac
tory alone, the six other factories hav-
ing the same or nearly the same capaci-
ty. Accorning to these figures, the men
who compose the Diamond Match Com
pany will all be millionaires at the end
of the next twelve months. They do
not anticipate that the retail prices OF
matches will be reduced for a year at
least, and do not care if the biggest kind
of reduction comes after that time, as
all Immediately concerned in the com
pany will then have become lnpendent-
ly rich, and will be ready to retire
from business. The Diamond Match
Company proved itself. one Of the
greatest monopolies of the age. For
years it delighted in paying the
stamp tax, and Secured stamps to i'm
mense amounts from the Government
at discount, and drove out all the
small manufacturers on the American
continent. The company is composed
of Mr.. Swift of Wilmington, Del; Q.
G.. Barber and J. r. Robinson of Akron.
Ohio; F. Hopkins Of ST. Louis, and halt
dozen others in the Eastern States.

To nearly all the applications made
to the Governor for pardOns we notice
the name OF the Attorney General; and
vet we believe this official never ap-
pears in criminal cases. If, therefore,
he masters all the grounds upon which
these numerous cOnvicts are pardoned,
the work must require a great deal OF
valuable time. AS the Governor takes
the ground that the Endorsement OF an
application for a pardon by a majority
Of the Board of Pardons is mandatory
upon him and releases him from all
responsibility, the public welfare de-
mands that every member OF the board
who signs pardon should be COM
plete master of all the facts and cir
cumstances Of the case. OF course, the
Judge who sits in the case must possess
such mastery of the facts. But it
seems impossible that either the lieu
tenant Governor or the AttOrney-Gen-
eral should have it, and hence these mem
bers of the board should be more chary
with their approval OF such documents.
The pardoning of convicts has grown
into a crying evil in this State, and has
done much to check the administra-
ton of justice and encourage the Grim
inal classes in their depredations upon
society. tits time to call a halt in this
business, and we hope the Board OF
Pardons will take a similar view OF the
matter and sign no pardons in future,
except in cases where in the conviction
Of the applicant, the most obvious prin-
ciples of justice and humanity have
been violated States.
