The Game.
Nashville American.

| Nashville American.
People are blind who cannot see the
purposes Of the alliance politicians. 1t
| is as certain as anything in the future
can be that the alliance will be swal-
| lowed head and tail by tue peoples
party in 1892, if the rank and file
doesn't defeat the aims of the leaders.
Their plan is to profess democracy for
the present and assert their intention to
do their fighting inside the democratic
party. When the democratic national
convention meets they will present
their demands ana Of course will have
them rejected. Then they will go out
and raise a clamor, declare that the
democratic party has gone over to Wall
street aud repudated the farmers and
hope to rouse such anger and resent
ment AS to be able to carry the alliance
bodily into the third party movement.
These men know full well that they
have no chance to get the endorsement
of democratic convention for their
Ocala demands, and they do not want
it. They merely wish to delude alli-
ance men with the hope of such in
dorsement in order to the more thor
oughly enrage them with disappoint-
ment and make them more easily man.

The Sabine Parish Affair.


| Baton Rouge Advocate.
1t is matter of sincere regret, from
the standpoint of good citizenship, that
"a number of citizens of Sabine parish
should be so lntOlerant in spirit and
violent in temper as to interfere with
| the freedom OF speech on the part Of
| those who simply desired to discuss
| political or economic issues before the
/ people there. 1t is true that al excuse
! IS offered that the armed bands Of lot
! terry adhcrents" were to invade the
parish to ' force the people into sal
lowing tAe lottery hash that said speak
ers Intended thrusting down their
throats," but this story is too thin for
serious consideration. Those who start
ed it knew it was false those who pre-
tended to believe it were hypOcrltcs, and
those who did believe lt we've fools.
The Sabine parish people in the aggre-
gate knew very we'll that nobody in
tended to make an armed raid on them,
or to interfere in the slightest degree
in the full liberty OF thought and action
OH their part, aid they ought to be
manly enough to back their own cou-
duet 10y honestly telling the truth, and
not to hide behind subteliuges.
The plain truth is that there WAS
DETERMINATIONS to suppress free public
hlStHSSibu III DtLtttiL "a tLc IUttNIJ
amendment, and they rose up in arms
to prevent it at all hazards even at the
price of blood. 1t is no excuse to say /
that the Sabine people regard the ques-
tions at issue to be under the ban of
morality and religion. A large section
Of the best citizenship OF the State do !.
not think SO, and the Legislature and !
the courts have submitted them for /
popular decision at the ballot box. 1t ,
is the very essence of intolerance to as !
sumo that the objects of persecution |
have 10 rights worthy OF recognition. /
When Calvin saw Servetus burning at |
the stake he thanked God that in Ills |
infinite wisdom He had thus punished
man who defed the will of Heaven and
trumpled the divine law under bis feet,
and yet Servetus was perhaps rs good a
Christian as Calvin.
The Sabine parish people havo done
themselves an injury, and nobody else,
by this exhibition of violence. They
have set the seal of intolerance Oh their
and hereafter, il they persist
in such course, they will find the bal
ance of the State out Of sympathy with
their narrow and proscriptive methods,
and be regarded as a community where
free thought and free speech are under
he ban, whenever popular prejudice
happens to run in contrary direction.

" Lottery Girls. "

A large meeting Of the friends of the
revenue amendment was held at Frank
lin last Sunday and among the speakers
was our bright and manly young friend,
Hon. G.. L. Dupre. In closing long
account of this meeting, the n. O. City
Item, under the above head, has the
following paragraph:
The young ladies in St. Mary are not
generally against the revenue amend
ment. Quite a number of them listened
attentiveIy to the addresses to-day and
when the speakers and several visitors
sat down to bounteous dinner at the
st. Mary Hotel after the meeting Hon.
G.. L. Dup,G found large and fragrant
bouquet berore his plate with card
containing the appended inscription at
tached: "Misses o. and ID. Bergeron of
West Baton Rouge, Miss F. Batterbee of
Franklin-lottery girls" The gentle
man highly appreciated the compli-
ment.

This is an item for delinquent sub
scribers to read:
A firm in Germany is constructing a
monster telescope, which will in all
probability be the largest in the world.
1t is supposed to magnify 10000 times
and will be placed on exhibition at the
Worlds Fair. 1t is alleged that the
magnifying power of this great glass
was ascertained in the following simple
and really ingenious way; A man who
refused to pay his subscription after re-
ceiving his local paper for nearly two
years was placed hundred yards from
the instrument and the glass turned on
him. Those who gazed through it re-
ported that they could make out faint
speck. After some profound scientific
calculation it was found that the glass
had magnifed the man 10000 times.

The people of Sabine rose in arms to
suppress free speech on the part of their
fellow citizens. Suppose this rule
should prevail every where in the State,
and the stronger side should compel the
weaker to submit to the logic of shot
guns and Winchesters. The State
would be drenched in blood, from one
end of it to the other, in less than a
week, and the questions at issue would
be no nearer settlement than they are
to-day. Sabine has set a criminal ex-
ample, and its violent temper will be
rebuked by the general conservatism of
the people in the other parishes. Ii
not, we had better surrender the ex-
pertinent OF free government, and call
in receiver for the residue of liberty
that may remain to us.-Baton Rouge
Advocate.

A Fading Race.

The recent completed census of the Sand
wich Islands shows the same decline in the pop
ulation that has been manifested in the past.
When the islands were first discovered, in ITS,
by Captain Cook, he estimated the population
more tnan fifty years afterward and showed a
population then of 130,5i3 In 1858 there were
but II 019; in 1872, 1904; and the present num-
ber is 81 ,436. In less than sixty years the pop.
ulation has been reduced T5 per cent. Some
have laid this decrease to the deciminatlng
wars that have ragged on the islands; others to
the vices that civilization has imported But
whatever be the true cause OF the decline OF
population, the fact ID most rsnarkahie one,

VI has
issued the following notice to teachers !:
AS during the past school session pu-
pills did attend Rapides parish public
schools from the parishes of Natchi-
toches, Vernon, Calcasieu, st. Landry.
Ayoyeles aud Grant, and as none of
these parish school boards contributed
to the support Of the Rapides parish
line schools as the school law directs
may be done therefore, teachers of
said schools must charge each pupil
who attends their school, whose parents
or guardians live in another parish, one
dollar and fifty cents per month, and
report the amount they collect to the
President of the Rapides Parish School
Board.
Boys and girls from other parishes
can attend the Cheneyville High School
by paying three dollars per month for
each pupil.
The greatest praise | can give this
school is to say that it is in charge of
Prof. D. 3. Showalter. assisted by Prof.
Lands, both from Pennsylvania, and
Miss Daisy Deane. This school is Sc
cond to none in our State, and is in

Before the war most OF the rice in the
United States was grown in North and
South Carolina and Georgia, while now
the production of Louisiana almost
amounts to double all of these put to-
gether.
The estimated production of clean
rice this year is for Louisiana 350,000
barrels. North Carolina $4,000 barrels.
south Carolina 100000 barrels, Georgia
so 900 barrels. making the aggregate
525 900 barrels.
The total rice consumption Of the
country is now about 100000 barrels
and the deficiency between that amount
and the total domestic production has
to be annually supplied with importa-
tions Of foreign.
Even making the most liberal allow
ance for variations in demand, there is
still a great difference between our
production and known requirements,
which fact ought to enable planters to
get full as much as the cost of import
ing equal grades in foreign.
