CLOSING ORHVAssEs.

Messrs. Nick Sewall & Brother, the young
men who recently succeeded in closing the
Bel Air crevasse in West Baton Refuge par
ish after the task had been abandoned as
hopeless, propose to stop the disastrous
Davis break for $65, 900 provided they are
furnished with sufficient funds to cover the
cost of the work as it progresses. An at
temptis being made to raise the required
amount by subscription and number of
interested planters have already offered to
contribute several thousand dollars.
The Davis crevasse is one of the most
damaging that has ever occurred IN the
State, and as the river will maintain its
present high stage some time to come the
large area of devastation resulting from
this break will be measurably increased if
means are not found for arresting the
enormous flow of water through the gap.
The method of the Sewall Brothers con-
sists in the almost exclusive use of AKA
posts, SO dovetailed together as to present
a solid wall of timber to the flood through
which very little water can find its way.
They are confident of meeting with success
at Davis equal to that which crowned their
work at Bel Air, and they ought by all
means to be given an opportunity to make
the trial.
The Morgan Railroad Company has
agreed to pay $20,eo0 for its share if the
crevasse Is closed, and will advance the
amount if the contractors can furnish se-
curity for its return in case of failure.

THE MORRISON TARIFF BILL
DEFEATED,

The planters of Southern Louisiana and
all who are interested in the production and
manufacture of domestic sugar will be
rsjoiced to learn chat the bill introduced in
the House of Representatives by Congress
man Morrison of Illinois. proposing hori-
zontal reduction of all existing duties on
imports, was brought to q vote On Tuesday
last, and was defeated by 159 yeas to 155
naya on motion to strike out the enacting
clause. Analysis of the vote shows that 11S
Republicans and Al Democrats voted in the
the affirmative, 152 Democrats and only 3
Republicans in the negative, the latter
three being all from single State-Min-
nesota.
This ought to convince the sugar pro-
ducers of Louisiana beyond all further
doubt us to which are of the national par
ties is their friend and which the enemy of
their interests. 1t is generally conceded
that the adoption of Mr.. Morrison's meas
ure would have almost If not completely
ruined cur sugar industry and we can hard
ly OufSG1VGS ID DGlfGNG 6tittt THO pSO-
pie at whom this blow was aimed can still
consent to kiss the hand that smitee them
by training with the national Democracy.
Strange to say, only one of the Demo-
cratic members of Congress from this State
MIR. Carleton Hunt of the First District
joined Mr.. Kellogg in voting against the
Morrison bill. Even Mr., Ellis, who rep-
resents a sugar district, was found among
the enemies of his constituents. II is
about time that men who will SO grossly
misrepresent the people who elect them
should be relegated to the shades of pri-
vate life, and if the citizens of Louisiana
persist in sending such unfaithful delegates
to Congress they will deserve the disaster
which has repeatedly threatened them by
reason of their political faulty and short
sightedness.
