when it gave it, was cnly a temporary
make shift to which the people would
not take kindly, and which would
have to 60 eventually.
Speaking on the question of the
bounty, the States clearly states the
situation thus:
"Let not the Democrats of the Third
District be deluded by these prophets
of evil and agents of the money Dew
ill., The sugar bounty, with all other
bOunties, is certain to be withdrawn
whether the Democratic party gains
control of the Government or the Re
publicali party retains control. 1t i,
unconstitutional, and it is Il taxa
burtllen-which the simplest of II
sixty odd millions of people clearly
see and understand, and the people
will compel its withdrawal. The only
difference in the policies that will be
pursued by the two parties is just this.
and mark it: Ii the Democratic party
captures the Government, the bounty
will be withdrawn, and the sugar tar
riff riH be restored; while if the Re-
publican, or Protection, party remains
in power, the sugar bounty Will be
withdrawn. and sugar WiU remain on
the free list. That is the difference,
and let the sugar people of Louisiana
keep il in mind"
The above expresses the true situa-
ton. The Republican party is COM
mlttca To free sugar, and if the bounty
must go, it will hot dare restore tariff
0. sugar. To restore tariff en- susar,
it would have to advocate the reduc-
ton OF the manufactured goods of the
East; such IA policy would alouse tie
bitter antagonism of the barons who
have for years furnished the ..sinews of
war to the Republican party. aud the
Republican, party will not dare to
offend :hem.
On the other hand, under the Dem
ocratic doctrine OF revenue, the sugar
has always received incidental protec-
ton, and should the Democratic policy
be again in~augurated, sugar will again
receive its just proportion of incidental
protection.
Bear it in mild, sugar planters OF
Louisiana. Ponder well before YOU
make a false step, lest you should bit
terly repent.

LoCKPORT, La, Aug. 10th, 1899.
Editor "Thibodaux SENTINEL"
The road question has for a long
time been an enigma. We understand
that the new police jury is 10Y medi-
tating plans for better roads. We
hope they viii soon come to d conclu-
sion in this matter.
The actual system may seem to be
practical, but it is not vested with
enough authority, for what right has Il
road inspector to have a proprietor to
plough his road in a conve way? Or
to have bitches made from the road
back in order to properly drain ite
On the other hand what would be the
necessity to cross ditch or bridge the
road when water would have to re-
main i'm SAID ditch and road for lack of
Necessary drainage to carry it away
The actual sy stem reminds us some
what of the Arkansas Traveller; in dry
weather the roads arc good enough,
and in rainy weather it is too wet to
repair them. The majority of the in
spectors run their beats once, and
sometimes, wher. the reads are good,
twice ii month. Their inspection thus
cost the parish from So to SIS per day.
A more beneficial way would be to re-
duce the number of inspectors, and
give to each mere territory at a salary
that would pay HIN for his whole time
and continual attention.
While we are in matters polite, we
would take advantage to express our
choice for member of Congress. Our
choice is a man of rare attachments, a
true a~ndtrusted leader of world
the Hon. Don Gallery, oil st. Mary. We
understand that the present incumbent
and faithful servant, Hon. Andrew
Price, has expressed himself as not be-
ing a candidate for denomination.
Some time ago we were led to believe
that the principal of our school, Mr.. L..
y. Brumfeld, had made arrangement
to teach IN another state. This was an
error. Before Mr.. Brumfield left to
spend his summer vacation i'll Ken
lucky, he made a contract with our
school Association to teach the ensuing
year.
We are pleased to hear that the
school will be continued under the
same corps of teachers. We are con-
WINGED that under their guidance and
instruction, the school will make rapid
progress. The school will reopen about
the first OF September. A movement
is already on foot for the celebration of
the four hundredth anniversary of tile
discovery of America by Columbus.
Although the programme has not yet
been completed, this much is known:
it will be gotten up and managed
chiefly by the children OF the Lock-
port Public School. 1t will consist Of
appropriate literary exercises, a picnic,
the hosting of a flag on the school
house, and an Grafton, if an Orator IA
be secured. An invitation will be ex-
tended to all the schools in the parish
to join in the celebration.

DEMOCRiCT IND SUGAR.

Under this heading, our esteemed
contemporary, the Daily States Il few
days ago, contained a thoughtful and
conservative dissertation, showing how
lie Democracy had always been the
friend of sugar, and how, if We may
judge the future by the past. the only
salvation of u great industry lies i'll
putting its reliance on the Democracy,
Its friend of the past is its friend of
the present, and will be ifs friend of
the future. This seems to be plainly
indicated by the ''signs of the tines,
and firmly established by the logic Of
events. But unfortunately, some of
the votaries of the sugar industry.
fearful lest harm should come ont of
the abolition of the bounty which is
becoming obnoxious to the American
people, have allowed Sheir vision to be
clouded, and now cry out that they see
not.
They see not that the Democracy
has always been their friend, and
that they have more to expect III the
future from this friend than from tie
Republican party which has never
been their friend. The Republican
party has struck a fatal blow 10 tier
industry hy putting it Oh the FREE
LIST that it might cut down the reyr-
nues and increase the tariff on the
manufactured goods of tie millio naires
of the East. This is undeniably true,
and blind, ;noeed, must be the
Southerner who reads not the lesson
anglt. True, the Republican party has
thrown in the sop of the bounty to the
sugar men, but this it must have known'

WEATHER.CROP BULLETIN.
0 H WEEK ENDING AUGUST, 16 80.

The past Eve days, beginning
cloudy and warm, with frequent show
ers, and ending with heavier rains, cool
er weather and a general absence of sun
shine, have not proven favorable for
agriculture. More or less progress
was made in field work, dependent
upon the duration and amount of rain
fall a the various points, but the labor
has not in any section been sufficient
to keep III check the rapid growth of
weeds.
CROPS.
With each week that records more
than its quota of rainfall the reports
regarding the condition of the cotton
crop become still less favorable. This
applies especially to tie lowland crop,
which has been set back seriously.
In the highlands and on well drained
farms the general tenor of reports are
more encouraging; the plant in such
lands has had a steady and healthy
growth and promises an average yield.
Blooms are opening well, and picking
will soon begin in some fields. Com
plants Of caterpillars and boil worms
are received from parishes in the ex-
IRENE northern portions of the state,
while shedding and rust are more gen
orally reported throughout the state.
Cane has been slightly damaged by
the excessive moisture, but the crop
continues in excellent condition. There
are new no fears expressed regarding
cane, except that it will probably be
slow i'll maturing, thus rendering the
plant liable to damage by frost later in
the season.
Rice harvesting began under favor
able auspices, but 500 was interrupt
ed by rains; otherwise this work would
be rapidly pushed. Dry weather is
badly needed in the rice region.
The corn crop is made and has Civ
Ell an abundant yield in nearly all Sec
tons.
The planting of peas, turnips and po-
tatoes has been favored by the wet
weather.
Dry weather, with abundant sun
shine. is needed for rice harvesting,
and would be beneficial to cane. Too
much sunshine following Immediately
after the heavy rains would probably
be injurious t. cotton, which shJu d
experience dry weather and at the
same time be for IL while protected
from the suns raj 5.

The RO4D QUESTION.

The question of good roads is one
which o seems to be generally agita-
ted, not only in the South but in the
North and West as well. 1t is a ques-
ton of vast importance as it concerns
the general welfare. Every body is
interested i'll good roads, for every
body, to some extent, uses the roads.
Hence. it is not surprising to see that
people, materially differing on other
points. are unanimous in the demand
for good roads. But while all want
good roads, few are agreed as to the
best methods of attaining the common
desire. Every other man has a plan
which he thinks superior to all others,
and which lie is anxious to force on a
suffering public.
Elsewhere we publish / conmunica
ton from an esteemed correspondent
residing in our eI.telprising little burgh
of Lockport, broaching the subject of
roads and apprislng Us that the police
jury is contemplating the adoption of
plans for securing better roads. We
are nottold what is in prosperity con the
subject. unless our correspondents sug-
gestion Of a reduction in the number
of road inspectors and an increase OF
salary can be viewed as a sort of fore
cast of the ,jury's contemplated iegi<la
ten.
The police jury Las ample authority
and discretion 10 lesi,Iate on the road
question and the SENTINEL is glad to
see that the subject ,as already engag-
ed the attention Of our new parochlal
legislators. But without desiring to
folestail OF, in any way, impede any
action of theirs III tile matter, It wishes
to remark that the question in hand is
not free from difficulty and its treat
ment should be slow and cautious that
the best solution of it might be attain
en-.
What adds greatly to the completely
of the situation is that We have almost
as much levee as road to inspect and
guard during high water, and hereto
fore economy has suggested the blend
ing OF the w offices Of road and levee
Inspector in the same person. TO
make this system effective during the
high stage of the water, it became a
necessity 70 have as short districts as
possible along the bayou. To continue
the same system will still require short
districts and many inspectors, not to
destroy its efficiency in SO far rs the
inspection of levees is concerned.
To separate the two offices and APP
point different sets Of officials, woUld
greatly Increase the expense, which
should not be done.
From any point of view difficulties
loom up in the way and our legislators
have need,lndeed, to make haste slowly
in any contemplated legislation on the
subject.
1t is well, however, that the matter
should be agitated and thoroughly sift-
ed that the best system possible to Sc
cure us good roads should be establish
ed. The SENTINEL viii revert to the
subject, and will gladly lend itself to
any intelligent discussion Of it.
