The Press ASSOCIATE IN meets III
Shreveport on the Sth of July.
Several important questions should
come up before the Aassociation.
The laws of the state of Louisiana
requires legal and judicial advertise
ments inserted in newspapers in par
isles where a newspaper Is publish
ed. The newspaper man demands
his pay or security, the attorneys say
if they refuse to publish it without
the money post it. Now, it seems to
us imperative. The law SAYS where Il
newspaper is publish the advertise
ment must be inserted. An attor-
ncy says, "If they want pay, post. "
The Plaintiffs are bound to deposit
$1,000 on filing suit with the clerk,
yet when the poor printer demands
his rights he is snubbed with post
the advertisement What does the
law say, "If publication is refused at
the legal rates then post Does the
law read IF tie Printer refuses to
advertise for nothing, then pos.::' if
so the attorney who says post is right
otherwise lie is entirely off. The
attorney who antagonists the press
and public is trcading on dangerous
ground. Suits are filed, advertise
ments inserted, the bill is sent t. the
Plaintiff is returned with Return
ell, says this will not be paid and
knows nothing about it." What
does this mean? That the attorneys
take claimes upon the Quack doctor
plan, mo cure. no pay" Is it right
to treat the newspaper man in this
wise?

SENATOR JoNAs.-In referring to the
Louisiana appointments our neigh
Dor, the Monroe Bulletin, says
"Jonas is to have the Collectorshir
of the Port of New Orleans (his ap,
pointment may be credited to the
Democracy of Louisiana, rs both fac
tons did not desire his appoint
mentC"
Now if our neighbor intends to
convey the idea that Jonas is not
one of the very best selections that
could be made we differ with him.
If he intends to imply that Jonas
belongs to neither of the extreme
wings we cordially agree with him.
Jonas is man of the people, pure
and simple. One Of our friends land
one whose political opinion we have
great regard) said, "what has Jonas
done that he should always expect
to be rewardcd?" We could answer
that question with what has he not
done?" To so into the State of New
York and stump the State in the
interest OF the national Democratic
ticket is something worthy of recog-
milton. No tr'ier democrat lives in
the State of Louisi ana than Ex-Sena-
tor Jonas He is not an extremist
but is a true democrat and man of
no small ability. The appointment
meets with our appreciation.

POLITICAL REt OGNIlIJN

We arc not of the class TO be
always complaining and finding
fault Of officials. We do however,
contend that there are certain rules
ofrecocni,ion that should be observed
and respected. That this part OF
the country has not had its share OF
official patronage no one will deny.
Eichland has been altogether ignor-
ed. Is it because we have not the
material? Richland has ALWAYS been
democratic, she ha, always PLAYED a
conspicuous part in politics. Have
we ever been given an office either
State or Federal? Is it not fact
that Richland parish WAS the first in
the State of Louisiana to endorse
John McEnry forGovernor? Is it not
a fact that the RrCHLANp BEACON was
the first paper to advocate John
McEnry and the people of Richland
in convention or mass meeting to en-
dor,e him for Governor? Such l.;
is the case Have we ever been
rewarded for seryices' The appoint
ments do not show this state Of facts,
rs our parish has been ignored in
everything that was worth having.
Does it stop here: Iichland has
always been true to Gen. J. Floyd
King as Congress member, we have
it from his own lips that of all the
parishes in this District he has the
strongest attachment for Richland.
Has he used his influence in reward
ing her people for political service?
Gen. King could have urged the ap-
pointment of some one from Rich
land for position. The appoint
ments seem to be strung up and
down the Mississippi. We contend
that Richland deserves recognition.
1t is the surest, and strongest demo-
cratic Parish in North Louisiana, and
yet she is not favored with anything
either from State of Federal patron
age. Is this right? Richland is true
from a sense of duty, she does not
demand reward for services rendered
but is this any the less obligatory
upon the powers that be to give to
the people that recognition to which
they are Justly entitled? Justice de-
mands it if our people do t,and we
would be recreant to our trust were
we not to speak out in the interest
of our people.

The Banner new paper published
at Lake Providence says:
"SoME persons unfriendlyto our en-
terprise have dared to insinuate that
others than ourselves will write for
the BANNER We hereby positively an
nounce that we have sole proprietary
interest in this paper, and that moth
ing shall ever appear i'll its columns

the brain and pen of the editor,
whose name stands at the head of

munications Of interest from any of

Suppose some imaginary personal
wrong should have been done by
publication in the Banner who would
take the pistols and drink the coffee?'
We imagine that a lady could con-
denim a wrong and defend the right
with much more ease than a man,
for if a man says yea or nay he is
confronted by some one with a pistol
or shot gun. One would feel small
scouting around after n lady with q
pistol or shot gun. This is a strange
world, women, asa general thing,
have much more gallantry and true
chivalry than men Mt the same
time have more protection and we
are very thankful for that. The man

tect II woman are not worthy of the

CIVIL SER VICE ACT.

The advocates Of the present use.
less and undemocratic law in re.
gard to the civil service found their
position upon false grounds. The
presumption that any such law is
needed is entirely erroneous. Why7
Because it is a presumption that a
higher officer, that is the one who
appoints, will appoint an incompe-
tent subordinate. Is this not a
false presumption! Jefferson, Mon
roe, jackson and the other grand
Hght houses along the coast of
American politics Of the past, and
the great defenders and advocates
OF real democracy never felt, never
suspected, never imagined the need
OF ANY restrictions upon the ap-
pointing powers In order to secure
competent subordinates. The sen.
timents OF the President of the
United States as set forth
In his message are but an
eolo OF those of Curtis, and all over
taa lana they are thinly reechoed.
Every absurdity has it's worship>
