The people of Louisiana are
not liberal patrons of the State
press. In this respect they fall
SO far below their brethren in
other parts of the Union as to
make the contrast painful. A
comparison of statistics may
not be uninstructive. We Sc
lect Nebraska, one of tho new
est, and presumably, one Of The
least cultured of the Western
States. Now the population of
Nebraska is about equal to the
white population of Louisiana
the former numbering 452,4O2,
the latter 456,291. The total po-
pulation of Louisiana is 939, 946.
Nebraska had in 1884 news
papers to the number of 276--
Louisiana had at the same time
Ito. The total circulation of
the Nebraska papers was about
$50, 00O-of the Louisiana pa
pers 10000. Nebraska has no
large cities, and her newspapers
are scattered pretty equally
throughout the State. New Or
leans has a population of 216,-
900, and the papers published
there have a combined circula-
ton of 100000, leaving the
combined circulation Of all the
papers published in all other
parts of the State at but 10000.
