Keep Up the Carnival.

Before the crowds had dispersed
the information was given through
the public prints that there was a
possibility of abandoning our Mardi
Gras pageants. The railroad officials
testify that the number of passen.
gers brought here this season was
larger than ever before. Therefore,
considering the matter from purely
business standpoint, there has been
return for the outlay that may be
regarded as satisfactory. The trou.
BILE is not that it has been found that
our pageants do not pay; on the
contrary, they bring to the city an-
nually thousands Of people to spend
thousands of dollars at our hotels,
stores. places of amusement, confcc.
tioneries, restaurants and business
places of most every description.
The complaint comes because few
people are allowed to shoulder all
the expense, while many others, who
are equally interested in the profits
to result from the pageants, are
ridiculously stingy or fail to con-
tribute q dollar to their support.
This is humiliating and illustrates
the difficulty attending the prosccu.
tlon of most schemes for the public
benefit here. The climate and the
character of our population fayors
this as the nest suitable city in the
Union for the Carnival celebration,
and it is demonstrated that it is q
highly popular kind Of amusement.
Why should we not keep up the
Carnival and derive a profit from
it? lnstead Of abandoning the pa
geants, let the movement be started
at once, and a careful canvass made
for subscriptions to test the popular
will on the subject. The community
is certainly indebted to the gentle
men who have done their part to
make the present season a success;
and it should prevent them from be-
coming discouraged by making gen.
erous response to another effort. The
Carnival pageants cost great deal
OF money, but when the amount is
apportioned reasonably among the
beneficiares to be raised, it ought to
be paid in without murmur.-N.

The Sollth's Opportunity.

The efforts made to enlist the aid
of the railroads in attracting i'm
migration to the South by low
rates has met with success, and it
is announced that on February %.
March l3 and q, April 10 and "a
tickets will be placed on sale at
points North and West to all points
South, good to return in thirty days
at the rate Of one and one,half cent
per mile each way, with stop,over
privileges. This is one Of the most
important movements ever made in
behalf of the South's development. If
the railroads and the business men
of the South will now unite in
advertising these special rates, and
thus work up great interest
throughout the Norl, and West,
the rush of people South will be
something wonderful. 1t will not
do to depend simply upon the
general announcement of low rates
as made through the daily press.
There must be earnest, vigorous
work to make these special efforts
effective. The whole North and
West ought to be flooded will.
special advertisements, until people
everywhere become interested. Some
will go for pleasure, some for curiosi-
ty, some on business. and some to
make careful investigations, that

Julian B. Dietrich, the letter car
rier who was arrested on the charge
Of rotbing the mails, has through
the efforts of his friends obtained
proof Of his innocence. The very
letter which he is alleged to have
stolen has been discovered by the
diligence and intelligent investiga-
tions Of newspaper reporter, thus
showing what a powerful, beneficial
Influence Of good to mankind is
welded through the medium Of the
press. 1t is highly probable that
young Dietrich will regain his
liberty in a few days.-New Or

The Louisiana Farmer has this
to say on the subject of the opening
Of Bayou Lafourche and the At.
takapas canal: Bayou Lafourche
must be dredged deeper, but while
the necessity for this is obvions, it is
also in ogdor to reopen the At
takapas canal, closed in years past
by the same wild cat"poiicy which
caused the closing of Bayou Plaque
mine. Let it be eanalized properly,
and then at any season Of the year
an outlet for all products will he OF
easy access through Berwick's Bay.
That canal would also, as in times
past, contribute largely to the pros
perity Of Napo'eonyille, commercial
ly and in a manufacturing point OF
vicw."
