ST. Mary Review: A railroad com
mission Is necessary in this State, and
the present Legislature should appoint
one. and no doubt it will. One OF the
advantages wonld be to prevent dis
crlmination In rates. It is unjust to
charge as high freight feom New Or
leans to this place as they would 70
towns eighty miles further west
Passenger rates should also be reduced
to three cents a mile, which is the
amount charged in almost every other
State.
The Review has its own opinions, e
which as q matter OF course 1t is en-
titled. but we are most emphaucailS
opposed to any railroad supervision TO
reasons already given the most poten
81 which are that Louisiana has bu
very few miles Of railroad to supervise
That the supervisors will draw heaps
salaries Tor ligas work and that the ere
alton Of such commission Of super

WE PROTEST AGAINST BARBARTIE

N. o. Picayune.)
The proposition of Senator Waddell
ia re- erect the whipping post IN
Louisiana as an engine OF punishment
for petty larceny offenders should not
be regarded with any sort OF FAVOR.
Floeeing for any class Of criminals has
been discarded as relic of slavery and
barbarism, and not to be thought OF IN
these days. 1t is not even retained In
the navy, where it was long beiieved
to be Indispensable, and should not
be tolerated in any public capacity in
q free country, except as last extre-
mitv. punishment for wife-beaters.
Some years ago the entire country was
. electrified with horror by the report
that white girl had been carried to
the whipping post at some place in
Virginia and there punished with
, stripes by negro constable under tht
!, orders of court. Let not those who
+ would approve such bill argue tina
the law would only be executed upor
the negroes. A law is made for all
since the lash upon the back OF white
man or woman might only be cqua
Q Justice. We protest against the revi
val of this extinct barbarity. 1t is al
atrocious degradation to threaten FREE
men and women, no matter OF wha
class, with the lash. The day OF thu
slave driver has past forever.

n. III. Mulkey, the case involving the
ownership of lot i'm Cook. Standiford

question. The counsel got into a mis-
understanding over this case, and it
WAS dismissed.
In the case of Turner, Frazier Il Co.,

dered TO sell the goods at private or

Ject to the order of the court.
The jury in the case of Lebrecht VS..

that the supposed re-survey and re-plat-

At FIRST the people predicted a huge
strike by somebody; but this was ex-
plOded when It was remembered that
no mOnopolists existed here. Then il
was suggested that the II multiplied by
and divided by 10 would represent the
majority in this district for Thomas
George but this would not work out.
Then IL was guessed that the 10 2i re-
ferred TO the 10 per cent. ~ year bonds
fraudulently issued i'm this county: that
the represented the multiplication
of the amount for the benefit of the
republican party then in power in this
state and county aud the 1921 was the
amount allowed for court house that
was never built. But the true solution
was this: The knights of Labor were to
have a meeting the 10th month, 2Ith
day, at . o'clock in the hall of assembly
No. S624, all Of which occurred in this
city last Sunday.
We did not mis-state a single fact
when we announced. last week. that
Richardson n Arnold's Union Square
TheateI Company would prove TO be
the best theatrical company that ever
visited this city. The troupe gave their
FIRST entertainment Monday evening,
producing Upon the World, or a mod
ern rendition of that ever popular dra-
ma, "Over the Hills to the Poorhouse. -
W. 5. Richardson as Hugh Floyd"
George Berry as George Washington
Cleveland Nimrod," and Miss Kate
Berry as Mrs. Floyd were decided
ly good; and altogether, considering the
new surroundings, small stage, and
other drawbacks. the result of the first
night was success. Last night The
Private Secretary" a modern and pop
ular piece. was presented to large
house, and words Of commentator
were heard on every hand. Tonight.
Wednesday, "Oid Homestead" will be
rendered; Thursday night, Nip and
Tuck Friday night, the ever popular
Monte Christie" and Saturday night
Double Life" will I've given. Tonight
a silver pitcher will be rallied off, and
the holder of the successful number will
get it if he or she is in the audience.
Another pitcher will be given away on
Saturday night. The popular prices of
admission govern in this entertain
ment, that is, children Is cents; gener-
al admission % cents, and reserved
seats 81 cents. With every 81 cent
ticket will be given numbers in the
drawings; numbers go with every %
cent ticket, and one number with every
IS cent ticket. Reserved seats at the
postOflice.
