The Springfield Republican calls upon
L0uisiSna to take some steps to improve it's
publfS|school system If it wishes to keep pace
with the rest of the South. The Republican
believes that the State is tagging far in the
rear of its ueighhors, and points at the fact
that while Georgia, Alabama, Texas, Arkanv
sas and Florida are annually increasing their
appropriations for public schools, Louisiana
is giving less than formerly, aud as couse.
quence illiteracy is increasing here. It says
warningly on this subject
The States of Alabama and Georgia on the
east, and Texas to the west, are now we'll

has not escaped the notice of some in Louisi-
ana that these States are snesSgig more and

for eight months in the year. A few more
years of such costly retrenchment will place
the State 80 far behind the other Southern
commonwealth that no rivalry can exist for
several generations.
Inc kepusucahs warning Is tImoIy anu
true. What it says about the Southern States
is beyond denial Each State enjoys immi

Arkansas and Florida owe their large white

they have made in their school systems. Al
ALBANIA and Georgia realize this, and have de-

The Tide of immigration.
N. o. Times.Demecrat.

n. y. llme3Democrat
Last week party of $50 men, women
and children, reached here from the
Northwest for settlement in Louisiana
Another party frresIowa, Illinois, Ne
braska and Minnesota, came in Thurs
day, destined for Tangipahoa and Cal
casieu parishes. The movement is the
result of the former immigration of the
Western people into Louisiana, who
are so we'll satisfied with it that they
have written home to their friends to
come here where they can get cheap
lands, fertile soil and mild and pleas
ant climate. The large immigration
now pouring in here is an evidence of
the success of the Iowa and Illinois col
onies, and it may reasonably be expect
ed to increase every year. The preva
lence of billiards. up North just low
will no doubt bring more people south.
Here, in our opinion, is the best
means of solving the negro problem.
Throw open the doors of Louisiana to
all white immigrants. encourage immi
grafton of this kind in every way, wipe
out the negro majority now in this
State, and there will be no negro ques-
ton, no race disturbance or difference
of any kind It means an end to all
these troubles, and it means better
agricultural methods and larger crops.
Louisiana has this remedy within its
reach 1T should seize it, The people
from Iowa, Illinois, Nebraska and
Minnesota are already pouring in here
