The Sunday after the riot in Chica-
GO, nearly every minister in the city
preached on the subject Of the out
break, and scarcely two Of them agreed
exactly as to the causes Of the trouble
or made like suggestions how to deal
with it. One minister thinks it due
to the lack Of evangelical churches in
the city another attributes it to gamb-
ling and base ball playing on the Sab
bath others thought 1t the spread Of
inidelity; some attributed 1t to beer
and whiskey. One minister thought
the lack of edueatin, or evil education,
had much to do with it. We are of
the opinion that the moral training Of
the young; children brought up under
the teaching of consecrated Christians
will go farther toward preventing
these uncalled-for riots than any work
that can be done by legislation and
politics. However, we admit, In
place like the city Of Chicago where
90 per cent Of her population is Of
foreign birth or parentage, we must
look largely to honest legislation.

We clip the following interesting
statistics from the City Item The
following exhibit of vital changes in
the United States is prepared by the
Surgeon General for the tenth census:
"The total population in 1880 was
so, los, 1888, an increase in ten years of
ll,597,412. OF this increase, 28l, ,219
per annum may be taken as due to
immigration, the total number of i'm
migrants for the ten years being
2,8l2,l9I. This makes the mean an
nual increase due TO excess of births
over deaths sTs, s,522." The mean an
nnal birth rate for the United States
is given as SO per 1000. The United
States as a whole, during the census
year, had comparatively low death
rate and high birth rate. The death
rate is shown to have been higher in
the coIored than in the white popnla-
tion in the foreign element than in
the whites of American parentage iE
the cities than in the rural districts.
The most important cause of diseases
and death were consumption, pneumo-
mia, diptheria. typhoid fever, malarial
feyers and those ill-defined forms OF
disease to which children under one
year of age are subject.

Thoughtful teachers are concerned
more about the effect their work will

vated BY teaching the Fundamental

leads the teacher to tho study Of fmeth-

The Appointment of Police
Jurors.


Times-Democrat.
The Democratic joint legislativ,
caucus decided last Monday to sup
port bill giving the Governor the ap
pointment of Police Jurors through
out the State for the next four years
after the expiration of the term of thu
present Police Juries,
After 1888 the Police Juries are tc
be elected, unless the Legislature pro
vides to the contrary. For the pro
lection of those parishes containing a
majority Of colored voters, the Dem.
ocratic caucus decided in 1877 to give
the appointment of the Police Juries
to the Governor. This provision was
continued, from time to time, the last
Legislature in 1882 voting in favor Of
this appointiye system.
The question before the Democratic
caucus was whether this system should
be continued by the re-enactment of
laws similar to those of 1877, 1880
and 1889. The case, as presented to
the caucus was the same as induced it
to act in 1877. The following shows
the parishes in danger of falling under
the control and domination of the Re-
publicans:

The total taxes paid by fifty-seven
parishes is 1922, ,s99 26, of which the
above thirty-one paid $338,962 2s, or
"a per cent OF all the taxes paid by
the country, in addition to a large
amount in licenses and parish taxes.
Under the present system these par
ishes have prospered and their finan-
cial affairs have steadily improved, to
the great benefit of all, white and col
ored. Their citizens have received
the benefit of the economical and wise
expenditure of funds, better schools,
better levees, and improvement in
every department, under Police Juries
appointed by the Governor from among
the white property holders of the
parishes.
This is the view that the Democratic
caucus took of the matter when it de-
cided by an immense majority that in
the present condition Of affairs the
best interests of Louisiana, and the
protection of some of the richest par
ishes in the State, demanded that tho
present system of choosing Police Ju-
ries by the appointment of the Gov
erner should be continued four years
longer.
