5. G. III an article in last Saturdays
SENTINEL says, in reference To Bayou
LafonTcle, iii answer to a question
~prOfounded ON time ago, AHow d
jetty system in Bayon Lafourche
would work practically as efficaeious
az it does in the Mississippi river r.
replies ''By following the same princi-
pies hat guides The engineers in
constructing the jetties on the river"
This looks ike a feasible and natura.
response, bur unfortunately there il a
great difference in the two streams.
Through the j~etties, at the mouth
Of the Mississippi river, an everlasting
current flows swiftly, whilst in the
Lafourche, for six months in the year.
little or no water passes, and as the
current Stacks it drops its deposits,
and thus contracts the channel.
S. 6. cites the effect Of the contrac-
ton of the channel in front of Thibo-
daux where the water is much deeper
in low water than it is at the Catholic
Church, just below. That is true.
The deposits are no dropped in
narrow channels but in the wider
passages always. This is a we'll es-
tablished fact in the history of Bayou
Lafourcle. But, if s. 6. is well in
formed about the Bayon in front Of
Thibodaux he would know that even
there the deposits are contracting the
channel and lessening annually the
capacity of transportation.
If there was a constant current from
the river to the Gulf Of Mexico. the
bayou might be transformed with a
jetty, but with the reverse, it is a
doubtful question.
The trouble in Bayou Lafourche
is not found il the bottom Of the
stream, as a general rule, bat on the
sides where the deposits soon harden
and become as solid as mother earth,
a fact that was developed, last spring,
in an effort to blow some of them to
pieces.
1t is not to be disputed, that the
assertion Of s. g., that a physical
demonstration of the fact, whether
jetties would relieve Bayou Lafourche
is the only possible proof of the theory,
but it appears to be not an unreason-
ableconclusion, thatpresentknowledge
and actual existing facts render such
. solution of the vexed problem ex-
tremely doubtful.

The Republicans boast of the result
in the election in Maine, and point to
it as a harbinger of Republican vic
tories in the other states in Novem-
Der.
Now at the last election previous,
the Legislative House contained I26
Republicans and 26 Democrats. the
senate was all Republican.
II the late election the Legislature
stands in the House, 10 Republicans
and II Democrats, being Il gain of 10
members, whilst the Democrats lave
elected 3 senators.
No sensible man expected the
Democracy to make any Roadway in
Maine, which is the great beneficiary
state Of the Protective Humbug that
robs the Western farmer for their
benefit. There is little comfort to be
had from the result in Maine for the
Republicans. The Democrats more
than held their own and that, too, with
certain defeat before them.
The farmer aud laborer east OF the
Allegheny mountains will look upon
the Mckinley bill from a different
stand point to the one from which the
Maine voters did, and will cast their
votes differently.

The nomination Of a straightout
Democratic ticket in South Carolina
has solidified the Democracy of that
state, and the chances that Tillman
will be elected Governor grow more
favorable as election day approaches.
Mr.. Tiljman was honestly, justly.
fairly, nominated, according to all
the rules aud traditions Of the party.
and the straigbtouts as they call them
selves deserve no consideration. They
are worse than the Republicans.

NEW CATHOLIC SAINT.


Pietro Chanel at Rome.
Recently the qualification of Father
Pietro Chanel priest of the Society of
Maria. who was massacred in Oceanica,
was celebrated in Rome in the great hall
of canonization which was Illuminated
by thousands of candles The hall was
divided into two parts, one being re-
served for the Cardinals and other &C.
clesiastical digni taries, the other for the
pilgrims In the galleries were the
ADDRESSES of various converts and the
ladies'.
Two oil pictures by Signor Monacelli
represented the death of Chanel and the
miraculous cure effected by him of
Sister Maria. of Monte Carmelo. The
canons of st. Peter walked in procession
two by two, preceded by Swiss guards,
and followed by the Cardinals to the
number of twelve. The latter took their
seats to the right of IA small daiS erected
at the end of the hall. \ priest then
advanced and presented the Papal brief
of canoniXation to the Cardinals. asking
that it should be made public. Cardinal
Masscla bowed i'll assent. and Cardinal
RefSo, secretary to the ngregation.
mounted a pulpit and read aloud the
decree of Qualification. which bore the
signature of Cardinal Ledochowsl1i.
When the Cardinal had finished the
curtain hiding the dais rose. and dis
covered, amid painted clouds and multi
tudinous lights the figure of the new
saint in the habit of priest. ascending
to Heaven amid chorus of angels. The
choir of the Sistine chapel sang the ''1e
Deum." and the bells of st. Peters rang
solemn peal. The ceremony ended
with a Papal mass, and afterward the
pilgrims and all the guests were allowed
to- visit the Papal gardens. London
