The agricultural interests of the
country have been greatly benefited
by the Sunday law. Previous to its
passage, a perfect pandemonium pre-
vailed on Sunday in most towns and
on many plantations, and the day and
night was rendered hideous and Of
tentimes dangerous even to whites,
on account of drunken negroes
Most of the murders and other great
crimes were committed on that day,
and statistics show that since we have
had a Sunday law criminal expenses
have been greatly lessened. Not only
this, but the labor is better than be-
fore, when it was difficult to muster a
proper force on Monday or Tuesday
to carry on field work. Hence, for
agricultural reasons, if not on moral
grounds, do the parishes want the
Sunday law maintained La. Sugar

The existence of the Lottery means

The existence of the Lottery means
a continuation of corrupt power in
politics. It means political slavery
to every citizen in the State. IF it
gains new lease of life and power,
it will be done by corruption. It's
corrupting power in the politics of
our State is enough to damn it in the
minds of all right thinking men. 1t

A lottery, if chartered by the State,
will, in the very nature of things, be-
come factor, aud powerful factor
in our politics. It will be forced to
control politics to preserve its own
existence, and the result will be that
the Lottery will dominate and control
the politics of the entire State. This
is, perhaps, the strongest objection
to the Lottery.-LOaisjasG Journal.
