How to Build Levees,
Baton Rouge Advocate.

|
The Houma Courier briefly tells in a
crisp paragraph" show the Ants propose
| to build levees." Their plan, says the
Courier, was outlined at the recent
| meeting of the Board of Commissioners
for the Third Levee district at Gretna.
when it imposed on the people the max
imum tax allowed by law-that is, 10
mills on all assessed property, so cents
per hogshead of sugar and other pro-
duce ID proportion. And yet, adds the
Courier, the Ants, while taxing the
people to death, have the hardihood to
assert that there is no necessity for ac-
ceptlng the immense revenue now to be
had without adding a feathers weight
to the burden of the people. The Ants
build levees by going deep down into
the poor mans pocket, and the process
does not seem to shock their sensibili
ties In the least, but their hair rises on
end with sanctimonious horror when
they contemplate the acceptance of lot
terry money as means of relief. Apro-
pos OF this subject, it may here be re-
marked that the river is now RAPIDLY
approaching it's low water stage and the
time is at hand when the levees should
be repaired and strengthened, instead
OF waiting until toward the close of the
year, when they can barely be finished
in time for the foods of next winter.
Contracts should be let now and not
later; then the levees would be harden
ed 80 as to resist the pressure and ero-
sion OF the water, and our fields would
be safer from crevasses. Why is this
not done Simply because there ia no
revenue for that purpose, but the State
must wait for the slow process of the
collection Of taxes before undertaking
the work. 1t is the hand -to-mouth
policy which Louisiana has always pur-
sued, and a good many people think a
change should be made.

There is no purely literary newspaper
in the United States that will approach
the Sunny South, published in Atlanta
at the low price of So per annum. 1t is
large twelve-page paper, printed in
clear type on excellent paper. But its
typographical makeup is the least of
it's attractions. 1t contains matter of
interest to all classes of readers-the
literary man or woman, the farmer, the
statesman and politician, the poet, the
lover Of society and the fashions, and
the little girls and boys. 1t has an able
corps Of contributors and deserves a

Baton Rouge Advocate; The peri
patetic Thomas Jefferson Guice-bad
success to him for wearing such front
name-in recent speech at Alexandria,
said the Louisiana Lottery Company
has money enough, if converted into
dollar bills, to reach from the earth to
the moon, OF to encircle this planet
four times. This is another variation
Of the anti statement in regard to the
wealth of the Lottery. The st. Landry
Clarion says it will not be able to pay
it's annual license Of $1,25O.0O0 to the
State if the charter is renewed; the
New Delta claims virtually the same
thing; the Shreveport Caucasian thinks
the Company's annual income is about
Sis, 900; the Alliance memorial to
Congress, adopted by the Ocala conven-
ton, puts the figures at $28,0O0,00O a
year, COLLECTED as al annual tribute
from the people of the United States,"
aud Guice disdains to measure the pile
by anything less than interplanetary
space. These discrepancies shame the
truth by their startling variance, and
we again suggest a convention of antis
to agree on facts and figures that are
not so wild and woody and hard to
curry.

The Houston Post in speaking of the
Texas press convention lately assem-
bled at Corsicana, very we'll remarks
that. aside from a business point of
view, the meeting together in pleasant
intercourse largely tends to promote
exchange of courtesies among editors
through the columns of their respective
papers, and thus personal villifcation
in journalism may soon become one of
the lost arts. The Post, indeed, notes
a marked change for the better in the
Texas press since the organization and
annual meetings of the association, and
says newspapers which indulge in per-
sonal abuse have lost caste, and are of
little weight or influence.
It may be hoped that the recent ses-
sion of the Louisiana Press Associa-
ton at Ruston will tend to somewhat
sweeten the bitterness of the approach

An Educational Boom.

When you go home," said Judge A.
A. Gunby in an address before the Lou
! isiana Press Association last week at
Huston, tell your people that North
Louisiana is on an educational boom.n y
And when the orator called it a boom,
he did not exaggerate; but it is not O
sudden boom-it has grown gradually.
The public schools Of Monroe have long
enjoyed the reputation of being among
the best in tile South; and this editor
has more than once held them up before
our educators as worthy of their emula-
tion. The leading citizens of that thriv-
ing little city have for years taken q
lively, an active interest in its schools;
the highest among them have not dis
dained to give them every assistance in
their power, and they have never al
lowed political or other differences to
interfere with the work. Their good
example and the gratifying results at
tanned have had their effect through
ont all that section, and the establish
ment of the Chautauqua at Ruston,
which is destined to emphasize and
perpetuate the interest in educational
matters SO happily inaugurated, may
safely be attributed in large measure
to the patient work of the patriotic and
enlightened citizens of Monroe. Let
Opelousas profit by the example.

The recent commencement. exercises
at the State Normal School at Natchi-
toches were highly gratifying to all
friends of education, and especially so
to the professors and patrons Of the in
stitution.
The graduating class consisted of
eighteen-al1 ladies.
The report of the board of admins
traitors, published in the Democratic
Review, shows the institution to be in a
prosperous condition. President T. D.
Boyd stated that the discipline of the
school was excellent, and that the
faculty was thoroughly competent
and satisfactory. The growth of the
school has been very gratifying during
the past three years. In the session of
1889 the enrolment was 154 in 1885,
80 it was 231, and in 1S90-91 it was 26O.
Every available space for boarders has
already been engaged for next session
which necessitates the addition to the
boarding department.
