Prohibition is the great underlying
principle of democratic government, the
principle that 'conserves the greatest
good to the greatest number and the
rock upon which it stands is layering
upward every day. It takes a plain
stroke Of vandalism to fire the heart and
patriotism.

BLOOD OUTLINES

Last night MAY 80 ia the sa-
loon of J. J. Jones, two doors above
this office, a man was shot through
the head by the bar tender
and instantly killed. This is the
second shooting affray in this sa-
loon within the last week. As to
which one of the men, the slayer or
the slain, was most to blame, we do
not know, and do not corcern our
ourselves to know. The murder is
no doubt the result of drinking sim
ply, and is to be regarded as the
product of the saloon. Blood was
heated by drink; the poor mans
brains were blown out and scattered
over the floor. He was taken,
bloody and dead. to his family, and
there we draw the curtain over that
part of the tragedy.
This morning we notice that the
saloon floor has been clean washed
and busines resumed as if nothing
had happened. The courts will
take up the case, and the people
will pay the judge, jury, witnesses
and attorney. In due time sentence
will be pronounced, and the slayer
will 60 to the gallows, the peniten-
tiary, or more likely, go out to trou-
Bile society again. We leave all
that, and ask, Who are responsible
for this mans blood2
First we charge It on our III.

Our Expensive Judiciary.
'Times-Dernoclat.

Louisiana has always been over
loaded with judici .ry. No State i'll
the Union of its population has ever
been able to compare with it III the
number or expense of its courts. The
entire judicial mactiueiy has been
cumbersome and cost, -detrlmtntal
10 the public interest and shouldeling
a great burden on the people.
If Il glance of comparison were
made with other States our people
would start back I'D surprise, and ap-
preciate how oveliudged they are.
Louisiana has a Supreme Court OF
members. 10 judges of appeal and "a
districts judges, q total of 81. This is
the higher judiciary, for We need not
take into account the city courts,
Justices of the peace, etc. For the
Same work, Arkansas, with nearly the
came population, las l chancellor,
supreme judges, and II circuit judges,
or Is in all. Mississippi, with quar-
ter more people, has but ) supreme
judges and IL circuit judges, or Is i'll
all. With 20 per cent more pOpula-
ton Mississippi gets along with less
than one-third the number OF judges
Louisiana requires, and with barely
one-third the judiciary expenses OF
this State. Alabama has but 3 mem
bers of the Supreme Court and Gil
cult judges; and Texas, with nearly
twice the population and six times the
area of this State. is yet able to do
little more than half our number OF
circuit and district judges.
Louisiana has one Superior Judge
for every $4,000 people. At this rate
New York would be entitled to a
Supreme Court of thirty members,
and over 300 Circuit Judges. But
neither New York nor any other
State in the Union has ever tried this
experiment OF having one judge for
every eight or ten lawyers in the
State. One-eighth of the entire bar of
Louisiana occupies position on the
bench and is paid out of the public
purse. The abuse is an old one, from
which this people apparently cannot
an excess OF judges, always more
courts than there was any business
tor.
There are courts, and expensive
ones, too, before which few cases
come. Litigation is falling off and
one-half of our present number OF
Judges could well attend to all the
business before them, and lind it easy
work to do SO.
Unfortunately our judiciary sys-
tenn is in the Constitution and can
only be Topped off by an appeal to
the people.
Here is one Of the expenses of the
State that can be most easily reduced.
The courts can he cut down one
half, the expenses in equal proportion
without any delay to litigation or
any overwork to the judges. In the
present condition of the treasury we
should give up this great luxury OF
superabundance of judges. The ex-
perience of Texas, Mississippi and
every other State in the Union prove
that we can get along very well
without fifty-one Superior Judges;
and we are certainly in ne better
financial condition than these States,
no better able to bear this heavy
burden.
The total yearly appropriation for
salaries of officers, clerks, employees
aud Office expenses of the State
government amount to 800, 400. of
which sum 1921 900 is for the pay of
the Judiciary system.

Should the bill we are told the
House committee on invalid pensions
propose to report pass, j. e., to impose
an income tax to meet the enormous
and rapidly growing expenditures for
pensions, the people will likely take
a little more interest in this scheme OF
pension robberies. It would be a
good thing to make the great capital
