THE VIcE OF OuR AeR-"The
vice Of our age" is the f-uds among
the people. "Feu.ls" infest our a.
ciety. "Fends" infest our schools.
"Feuis" iniest orr business cir
cles. "Feuds" infest our churches.
Go where you may. and fends are
in abundance. Two men fall out,
their children and their friends
next take up the quarrel. These
"feuds" separate husband and wife,
family from family, church from
church; there are no political bonds
but what may be severed by them.
The relations of the church are too
weak to restrain them. The voice
of the minister cannot lull them to
sleep in the church.

Under the heading, Back to the
Good Old Plan," the Clinton South
ern Waichman has this to say:
The recent decision of the SUI
preme Court, in the case of Henry
Bier VS.. L. A Burke, Treasurer, re-
establishes the principle of pro rata
payments of all ordinary warrants
without discrimination. aud ex-
plcdes the Treasurer's practice of
payments by classification, which
the court declares to be a naodus
operandi unknown to the constitu-
ton and law. Henceforth the hold
ers of ordinary warrants will be
paid pro rata. and not be compelled
to wat upon any arbitrary or I'm
fair classification. The decree has
the ring Of the true metal and will
become memorable as loug stride
toward the re-establlshment IF
equal rights and clean methods in
Louisiana finance.

islands by criminals sent there by
