CONDEMNED BY THEIR OWN
ORGAN.

Ii the proxy lea0er OF the minority
of our Democratic Parish Central Com
mittee and his little band of humble
followers read the editorial in the New
Delta of the 25th ult., entitled THE
Ouachita Method they must have
thought that that was the 'unkindest
cut of all )" for whereas /; the Delta
was hitting at other heads, yet every
blow aimed struck with peculiar d.
rectness at the outrageous conduct OF
these few rule-or-ruin marpIots.
We do not know whether the acts of
our Ouachita friends were such as de-
scribed by the Delta in its truculent
style and whether our friends were
guilty of the conduct for which they
have been 30 mercilessly excoriated F.;
but we do know this. that even if they
have been guilty Of everything charg-
| ed to their account By the Delta, their
conduct was not a whit more outrage
Gus, revolutionary and undemocratic
| than the conduct of Mr.. Whitehead
and his little band of humble followers
in the meeting of the committee on the
| oath of October last, and all the Gen.
/ sure and de2unciation of the Delta
heaped upon the "Ouachita Method
are far more richly deserved by what
has become known by the uncompli
mentary appellation of the "Lafourche
Plan"
Indeed. the "Lafourche plan" of
| Messrs. Whitehead and company so
richly deserves the censure and d.
nunciation meted out by the Delta to
| our friends from Ouachita for their al
legged political ~offenses, that if one
would substitute '"Ihe Lafourche plan,
for The Ouachita Method and the
word "Antis' for "McEnery' in the
body o: the article, the i~ncisive Ian
gnase of the Delta then apply DIES
cribes, properly characterizes, and
justly and denounces the
conduct of Mr.. Whitehead and his lit
tie minority in the committee as ..the
most high-handed political outrage BY
which a lot of desperate partizans e ser
~disgraced themselves" an outrage in
which Eve cannot now recall a single
rule of political fairness, of parliament
tary precedent: or of party usage
which was not violated by these men,"
"Ihe first step in violation of all
fairness and precedent was the ap-
pointment by the chairman of thecom-
mittee" of five members to fill alleged
vacancies in the committee, without
the shadow of right or authority, aud
witlIouteven consulting the committee,
but of his own motion and sweet will
and outside of and before the meeting
of the committee.
"The next step vas another viola
ton of all precedent the President of
the committee called to the chair IA
proxy member when the viee-president
was present, ready, willing and compe-
tent to act, and notwithstanding the
protestation of the majority Of the
committee. "This gave to this man.
whose right to the .(chair) ....
was disputed. the power ...... to pass
upon the question whether or not he
was entitled 20 a seat lin the chair J

Pacific Island Cannibals.

A recent writer in the Asiatic Quar-
terly Review says that so far as actual
ly known none of the Pacific islanders
were man-eatcrs from morbid appetite,
as is proved by the fact that among
such of them rs were cannibals it was
only upon certain occasions that they
exhibited this propensity; none was
slain among them for food alone. The
bodies of enemies killed in war, or vic
tins sacrificed to idols, furnished the
feast, of which only certain of the ini-
tiated, as warriors and priests, were al
lowed to partake.

TREES HELD TO BE SACRED.
The Date, the Oak; the Ash and the
Legends Concerning Them.

The Date, the Oak; the Ash and the
Legends Concerning Them.
The palm, the oak and the ash are,
according to a timely and interesting
article in the June number of the
Deutsche Rundschau, the three trees
which, since time immemorial, were
held to be sacred trees. The first among
them which figures on the oldest monu-
ments and pictures of the Egyptians
and AsSyrianS is the date palm home
tan. Tradition of later period says
that when Adam left Paradise he was
allowed to take with him three things
a myrtle, because it was the most love-
ly and most scented flower on earth; a
wheat ear, because it had the most
nourishment, and date, because it was
the most glorious fruit of the earth.
The date from Paradise was in some
marvellous way brought to the Dejaz.
From it have come all the date palms in
the world, and Allah destined it to be
the food of all true believers, who shall
conquer every country where the date
palm grows.
The oak was always considered
holy tree by our ancestors and, above
all, by the nations of the north of
Europe. When Winnifred, of Devon
shire (GS0-754 A. d. went forth on his
wanderings through Germany to preach
the Gospel one of his first actions was
to cut down the giant oak in Saxony.
which was dedicated to Thor and
worshiped by the people from far and
near. But when he had nearly felled
the oak and while the people were ours
ing and threatening the saint a super
natural storm swept over it, seized the
summit, broke every branch and dashed
it, quasi superni, motus, solaris, with 6
tremendous crash to the ground. The
heathens acknowledged the marvel ana
many of them were converted there and
then. But the saint built a chapel OF
the wood of this very oak and dedicated
it to st. Peter.
The Celts and Germans and Scandi-
navians, again, worshiped the mount
ain ash, and it is especially in the re-
Egious myths of the latter that the
"Asl1r Yggdrasil" plays a prominent
part. To them it was the holiest among
trees, the ''world tree" which, eternal
fyyoung and dewy, represented Heaven,
earth and hell. According to the Edda
the ash yggdrasil was an evergreen
tree. specimen of it (says Adam, OF
Bremen,) grew at Upsala, in front OF
the great temple, and another in Dith-
marschen, carefully guarded by rail.
ing, for it was, in mythical way, con-
nected with the fate of the country
When Dithmarschen lost it's liberty the
tree withered, but magpie, one of the
best prophesying birds of the North
came and built it's nest on the witheret
tree and Matched five little ones, all
perfectly white. as sign that at some
future time the country would regain
its former liberty.

None are Guilty.

Itis amusing to note the effect on some
parties who seem to be very toucby on the
deficiencies referred to in the Governors
srscelt message to the legislature. Several
have already come out in newspaper cards
10 plead not guilty to the charges made in
the message, but at the same time they al
ways acknowledge that what he said was
true.
Bateman, the ex-clerk of the penitentiary,
denied being defaulter, but acknowledged
his not having had the necessary vouchers
ut the time Of settlement to show what had
become of about fifteen hundred dollars of
OF which he was short. He says that the
vouchers had been misplaced and the
amount short was made good. Bateman
further claims that he oyerpaid nine hun
dred and thirty dollars also referred
to In the executive message, to a
business firm in Columbia for goods for the
institution, and that the most lie could be
charged with is carelessness. The News
and Courier has for a headline to Mr..
Bateman's s card Why not sue for damages
Ne hardly think Mr.. Bateman after making
the confessions he has would get much con-
ISOLATION from q suit in the courts. He says
that he was short but the money was made
good! He says that he overpaid firm
That furnished goods for the institution !!
Ii he had charge Of the funds Of the institu-
ton and at the time of settlement fail to
show proper vouchers for the money dis
bursed by him, II he IS not defaulter
what is he?
The treasurer Of Union county also
squeals in a newspaper card. The word
-defaulter sounds harshly on refined ears,
but if it is true why kick? 1t matters not
whether the defalcation came about through
mistake, through an oyerpayment, or q
theft, the people entrust their money with
IN officer and if he fails to make proper
showing when the time comes there IS
something wrong The Union treasurer
claims his was mistake, and SO 1t may be,
bnt if he was short several hundred dollars
through mistakes the governor did right IN
calling the attention Of the Legislature to 1t.
The people are applauding the Govern
oriy efforts to hew to the line without regard
20 wHs1-e-.he chips may fall.
The newspapers that are not favorable
towards the present administration are con-
stantly publishing cards and other articles,
to endearor to bring the present admins
tration into disrepute, but they will find that
the commenting and misleading headlines
TO these articles will have as little weight as
such things deserve, and the people Will
not be fooled by them. The lessons learn
ed in the campaign of education last year
!, taught the people that vituperatlon, abuse,
fand dece ption is the weapon Of the sore
Sshead, and the wall Of the defeated.
