Tbcryiiie Democrat.

The Weekly Observer in an article
alpop thle subject, says: "Geu. +. 7.
Lewis is an uti-administration politi-
cfans of the reform school. To bene-
tit his parish, he would inflinct irrepar-
able injury upon IA others. His mimi
cal attitude toward the Governor is
palpably manifested in his promise to
secure the passage of bill which
would threw the government of four
teen parishes into the hands of the Re-
pnb!icans. The parish of Plaquemines
il Republican parish. Its Police
Jury ID to-day composed Of Demo-
Gratis"
Then, as We understand this, the fact
that all Police Jurors in the State are
democrats, is used as an argument
against the elective plan. But the OBJ
server is mistaken in that. We don't
know how it is elsewhere, but ia this
parish three of the Police Jurors are
and always have been ayowed Republic
cans. Certainly, election is the prln-
ciple of our government, and the ap-
~ppintment plan was adopted as an eI-
pedient. Then if that plan only pro-
duces the yerv result it was intended
to defeat, would it not be the sounder
policy to.return to the principle We
.appresaend that the objection to the
ureSent administration Is that tle law
has been executed in Il manner that de
feats its own purpose. But without
reference to any particular adminll>tra,,
tion, and taking the facts developed
only as showing the direction in which
the law has tendency to protect Itself,
there is an objection to it that must be
fatal 1t is placed within the power OF
the Governor to build up for himself Il
personal party within the party to
which he belongs regardless of the in
.terest Of that party. In other words,
TO create an imperium in imperio within
the political organization to which he
belongs, that Will dominate that organl-
zation, and make it subsefvient to the
personal aims of the inner circle. We
fnlly understand what the repeal "f the
law means, but OF the two evils per-
hans its repeal is the least.
