CRUELTY TO

Act No. 10 Of the Session Acts Of
1888, provides that any number of
persons, not less than seven, shall
have the right to form themselves into
a corporation for the prevention OF
cruelty to animals.
Whenever Il society of this kind
shall be organized in any town or par
ish, it shall be the duty OF the munich
pal or parochial authorities to appoint
and commission as police officers such
persons as may be nominated by such
society, and said special police shall
have the same powers and authority
as regular police and peace officers,
provided that the town or parish au-
thorities shall be at no expense on ac-
count of the appointment Of this spe-
cial police.
1t is made the duty of the regular
police force of cities and towns to aid
the society in s%uppressing cruelty to
animals, and the duty is imposed on
municipal corporations in this State to
provide by ordinance for the punish
ment of cruelty to animals when COM
mitted in any street, park or other pub
lie place in the limits of such corpora
ton, by fine or impris onment or both,
as a police offense.

The failure Of the wheat crop i
Europe and IN this country will. IN
Occasionally tend to raise the price g
that staple, and consequently theirs
will be . rise in breadstutfs. AS Hour
will be higher, recourse will be had by
many poor persons to cheaper substl-
tutes,, and among those we know OF
none better than cornmeal. Fortu-
nately. the corn crop in the West ID
very abundant, some counties i'll Ohio
averaging 100 bushels to the acre.
There is nothing better than corn
bread when we'll made, and If we had
fresh cornmeal in the market continu-
ally, the demand for it and its con-
| sumption would increase.
Why should not the Industrial Asso-
| citation of Lafourche, which proposed
| to start a canning factory, convene
once more and take steps to organize
a stock company for the operation Of
a grist mill in this town? We believe
the scheme would appeal to the gooC
sense and better judgment of our peo'
pie, and that no difficulty would be ex
perienced in securing the amount 0
capital required to put the idea init
operation.

A POSSIBLE NE ENTERPRISE

A POSSIBLE NE ENTERPRISE
We have always been Of the opinion
that the best means of building up our
town is to encourage the Inauguration
of new industrial ventures. Now that
the law permits the establishment of
all kinds of business ON the stock com
pany plan, it should be an easy matter
to form an aggregation of capital from
many persons of small means, sufi-
cient to build up any enterprise not
requiring too large all outlay of money.
There are many industries. that
might be started here with a fair pros
pecf Of success. We propose, in this
article, to point out one industry that
could easily be made a paying invest
ment to those who might feel induced
to 60 into it. We have reference to
the starting Of q grist mill, to supply
the trade of the locality with fresh
cornmeal and grits. There is an i'm
mense quantity OF both these articles
consumed by our people, and the whole
| supply comes from other States. Is
there any reason why every pound of
| cOrnmeal used here should not be
ground in this town? With the same
| facilities as the western miller, and
| with corn raised in the very vicinity
of the mill, why should not a success
full competition be made to the foreign
millers 1t is a we'll known fact that
the meal of commerce has to be kiln
dried in order to preserve it from de.
t%eriOratiOn. II meal were made here
there would be no necessity for this
process to preserve it, as it could be
supplied fresh, in quantities to suit,
to purchasers.
The machinery for a grist mill such
as would be needed for our use, would
not necessarily cost a great deal, and
it would be an easy matter to find 6
! suitable site for the mill.

Legislate. lit can legislate, absolute
" and irreyocably, for four years be-
ys2d thtterm.o of it's own existeacs, It
can prescribe as well for ten, twenty, |
forty years pay, for all time. ! ~
Nor can it be said that the position
of the old committee has been made
stronger by the fact that the people
voted for delegates under its resolu-
tons. The people elect their officers
and representatives but do not Fix
their term of office; that is usually
regulated by the law making power OF
the people. Now, if that law making
power exceeds its authority in fixing
the tenure of office, the election by the
people confers no greater right on the
officer or representative to hold for
the unlawful term. These are elemen-
tary principles which come home to
every man familiar with our American
institutions.
But even conceding, for the sake Of
argument, that the election by the
people strengthened the position of the
old committee, we fail to see how the
case is altered. The people always
have a right to undo what they have
done they are sovereign. Even if
they had elected delegates for four
years, they have the right to revoke
their powers and constitute other rep
resentatives. Every body will admit
this simple proposition.
But there is an old and true axiom
that ''what one can do by himself, he
can do 10y another" This applies to
the people; what they can Go by them
selves, they can do by their duly con-
stituted representatives. In this case,
the Executive Committee is the duly
constituted organ OF representative of
the Democracy of Lafourche, elected
by the people for the special purpose
Of managing and directing all the af-
fairs of the party organization. When
it acts it does so in the name and as
the representative Of the Democracy,
and its official acts are the acts OF the
party.
We are glad, therefore, to see that
the committee has used its power in
great moderation in appointing dele
gates. 1t was right and proper that it
should provide by resolution for the
present retention of the eighteen dele
/ gates chosen at the last primaries,
with the patriotic view, as expressed
by the committee itself, of harmonic
ing all past differences which have
lately existed in the Democratic ranks.
No efforts should be spared to bury
forever out Of sight, any semblance,
even, Of factional feeling in the midst
of the Democratic family ; and it was
eminently proper for the committee
the organ of the parish Democracy
| when it came to exercise for the good
of the people an undoubted right, to
be the first to set the example to all
good Democrats.
Let its conservative example not
only be approved but emulated by the
people.
