Free Speech Denied in Sa-
binc Parish.

Some time ago it was given out that
there would be a public speaking and
barbecue at Many, the seat Of govern
men of Sabine Parish. 1t was appoint
ed for the 25th of September. yesterday.
The following announcement was made
in the Southron, os Sabine, published on
the 18th at Many; A
In this issue will be found an an
nounccElcnt of Il barbecue and prO-lOt-
terry speaking To be held ut this place on
the 25th of this month. The barbecue
is being given by the pro- lottery men of
this parish, and we have been reliably
informed that Il great many of the ants
have taken part TO some extent. There
seems to be a disposition among the an
It's to want to hear the pro-lottery argu-
ment, and there is no doubt but what
there will be Il good attendance on that
day. We think 1t nothing but right
that the people should hear this ques-
ton argued both pro and con-, and we
for one will be present to hear the speak
ing.
No sort Of trouble was expected As it
was supposed the right of free speech.
as guaranteed by the constitution. would
be duly respected. Itappears, however,
that after all the preparations had been
made, and the provisions were on the
ground. ready for the barbecue, a crowd
Of armed men took possession of the To-
cality chosen for the mass meeting.
threw away or destroyed the bread and
meat provided for the barbecue. and Or
dered out of the parish the persons en-
gagged in making the arrangements, at
the same time warning the people not
to assemble there on pain of violence.
As consequence, the mass meeting
was not held at Many. and the right of
free speech in the Parish of Sabine is
denied under threats of force. This is
the first instance of the sort reported in
Louisiana for a long time. 1t is a sorry
story to go abroad, that in a Democratic
parish, dominated by the whites, white
Democrats are prevented by force from
expressing an opinion upon IN amend
ment to the Constitution proposed to
the people by the State Legislature. II
is not easy to realize that such state of
things can exist in Louisiana in IS0l.-
Picayunc.

What There Is In 1t.

y well to DO planter, who happened
in the Sheriff's office some time ago and
who took occasion to dcscant upon the
lucrativness of the office. was asked
what he thought the Office was worth?
He answered promptly, mot less than
$4,000 per annum." OF course this
was ridiculously high estimate, but no
argument could convince the gentleman
that he had made a mistake.
Upon another occasion gentleman
from the Second ward entered the Office
to settle his taxes, Just as the Sheriff
was busy making monthly settlement
with the Parish Treasurer, he was pO-
litely requested to take a seat until the
settlement was ended. which lie did;
looking with amazement at the piles of
gold and silver and L. S. notes which
were piled up on the desk to the extent
of some ten thousand dollars, larger
sum than the gentleman had ever seen
before. After the money was counted
and found correct the Treasurer placed
Il large drawer under the desk and lat
one fell swoop raked the whole pile into
il.
The impression it made upon the tax
payer was great, and he lost no time III
telling n bosom friend of his when he
returned home what treasures he had
seen with his own eyes, and how easily
tie Sheriff was acquiring fortune:
Said he to his friend, ''they make money
so fast in the Sheriff's office that it is not
even counted, it is scOoped into n box
by the armful.' .''-Ibbervill South.

Have a Competitive Examin-
alton.

We have remarked that several ap-
plications have been made lately to the
police jury to be appointed by that body
as beneficiary cadets to the State Uni
versity at Baton Rouge.
The parish is empowered to appropriate
the sum of $3.50 for a beneficiary cadet.
but we see no necessity for such an apprO-
preation. If the parish, however wants
to make the appropriation. and think it
advisable to send one of our boys to the
University at the parish expense, it
would he more appropriate to order an
examination open to all the youths of
the parish, and TO send the one passing
the lest examination.
We believe it unjust and unreasonable
for the police jury TO act Oh any Of the
applications; a competitive examination
is the proper way to select cadet if the
parish is financially able to make The
appropriation.

miles below Lafayette, last Monday
night. Clavery shooting and instantly
killing one If his tenants. J. 4. Thibo-
deaux. One of Clavery's daughters was
to be married next day, and that night
he had given a party in honor Of the
approaching occasion. No doubt a too
free imbibing of liquors was the cause
of the fatal catastrophe. Remy |. He
bert, ,sthe main witness examined by the
coroner, testified as follows: Jean Thi
bOdeaux, Dominique Clavery and Paul
Cazeau left the house and walked in
the direction OF a certain cOulee. After

returning, and In about ten minutes
after Cazeau and ThibOdeaux came
back; but before they entered the yard
saw Clavery with his gun. then asked
the two men which of them was Clavery
angry with? To which Clavery answer
ed that he did not know. Clavery then
said: would like to see the man who
would make himself master of my
house." Clavery then said something
about shooting, when ThibOdeaux said
'shOOtv at the same time putting his
hand on his breast. II was then that
Clavery fred the fatal shot, the cohtents
of which lodged in ThibOdeaux's, left
breast. killing him instantly" Coroner
Gladu held the inquest. The jury re-
turned a verdict to the effect that Jean
Arthur ThibOdeaux had come to hi:
death from a gunshot wound at th'
hands of Dominique Clavery, ami tha
the killing was felOnious. Clavery sur
rendered to the Sheriff, and is now con
fined in Jail. Dominique Clavery is
