The Terrebonne Times on the Baton
Rouge Truths candidates for the
Goverporsffip caustically says:
The Truth reserves the last name of
the four, to perpetrates huge joke
upon the Democracy, in naming Dr.
T. Jones, of East Feliciana, an honest
man, for Governor, just as if he had
any chance in Democratic conven-
ton for nomination for any office.
The Truth says Of him; He is as
pure as an iceburg, and straight as
shingle. If he were Governor, strict
integrity would prevail in all depart
ments or he would call out the militia"
That is enough to satisfy any sane
man that the Doctor is not the man
the Democracy is looking for, hs
would freeze the very marrow in the
party's osseous anatomy and quench
the longing expectations of. young
politicians ambition by II single de-
luge of cold water.

One of the difficulties that beset the
prompt and certain administration of
our criminal laws, and the punishment
of crime, and hence that concerns the
security of property and life, Is our
miserable jury system, under which, in
the majority of cases, the law is placed
in the hands of the worst class of the
community. The Louisiana legisla-
ture during session of sixty days,
with every member of both Houses
aware of this fact, and with two excel
lent bills before them for the reform of
this fearful evil. under which hood
lumism and murder flourish, failed to
pass either. The highest pinnacle of
legislation to which the reform ideas
Of the Legislature ventured to soar
was the removal of the roller coaster at
West End. ViUe hoodlumism.. A bds
the roller eoaster.-States.
Yesterday Louisiana's three murder
ers paid with their lives the penalty of
their crimes. This is showing which
is alike to be deplored and commended.
If it bears testimony to an Cnfortu-
nate frequency of violent crimes, it
proves also that the people are awaken
ing to the necessity of visiting upon
crime the strictest measures of repres-
sion. A mistaken leniency to sliedders
of human blood has too often enconr-
aged mnrder in Louisiana. Evil-doers
must be brought to realize that punish
ment will be prompt and sure. Men
who do not regard moral restraints
must be restrained by fear. 1t is hoped
that the era of stern, impartial justice
has begun in this State Picayune.

tile latest attempted Sttidiy Slao h"'
just been averted allude to the
gratuity to House and Senate employees
who are paid liberal salaries for easy
work on less than half time. 1t had
been agreed to give them a months ex-
ira pay because they would like to
have it, but Representative Reagan OF
Texas, Price of Wis, Hambill Of 5. g.,
McAdoo of n. }. Holman of Ind. and
others emphasized their disapproval OF
the theft in such manner as to defeat
it. The scheme would have extorted
at least 100000 from the taxpayers to
be given as a sratuity to men who
were already receiving high salaries
The Natchitoches Review illustrates
the imprOvidence of the negro character
by an incident that occurred In that
town. A negro man with a large fam
lily delivered to his merchant eleven
bales of cotton, the fruits OF his years
labor. His account footed up $500.
He told the merchant that he had
nothing at home for his family to eat
and asked permission to reserve one
bale, the lightest, for necessary pur-
chases. The value of the bale was read
lily paid him, and rejoicing in the possess
ion of about S35, the first thing he
bought was Sc accordeon'
X Pretty tough. though eminently char
aeteristic. But we can discount the
story by that of a grown up white
man. Once upon a time we CHANGED
to be sitting in front of the grocery
store of an old friend in Jefferson, Tex
as. A man, who had brought to town
and sold one bale of cotton, was pur-
chasing a small bill of groceries, among
which was full barrel of whiskey-in
those days Dexter was not so costly as it
is now. After settling for and loading
on the goods, he gathered np his OK
whip and started to drive off, but sud-
denly remembered that he had forgotten
something. Turning to the merchant
he remarked: ''I'll be DANCED il the old
woman didn't tell me to geta side OF
bacon that she had no meat in the
house." Having no money, h made an
eloquent appeal foi credit to the amount
Of a bacon side. The merchant, no
doubt, knowing his man, was proof
against his establishments. Though it
was no funeral OF ours, we at length
ventured mildly to suggest that he di-
minish the amount of whiskey and TINS
pay for the meat. He gazed at us with
an injured look and with decided en-
phasis replied: "Great God! stranger,
do without whiskeyg No sir !; the old
woman must get beef for the children"
And he drove off.-Shreveport Journal.
