The Opelousas Public Cemetary.

Two weeks ago we published the pro.
ceedings of our Police Jury, and among
the items of deep interest to the Pro-
testants of this community was the ac
ton of that considerate body, in con-
veying to the town the grave yard and
academy lot lying near its eastern linn
its. The records of the Police jury and
others with them having been destroyed
10y tue fire of 1886, DO evidence had been
left of the previous action of that body
relating to these grounds.
The resolution to which We BOW refer
was designed to restore the record OF
the title of the town to them. The
property in them being now established,
it devoves on those who have their
dead inferred there to take the necessa-
ry steps to have them decently inclosed
by an iron fence, to prevent the desc
Grafton of the graves and thcir loss Of
Identification Gy the demolition OF the
tombs, and the conversion of the bricks
to other uses. Do have enough atten-
ton given to the yard and to the graves,
to enable survivors to walk among and
to find them.

A Reading Room.

Some months ago the question OF es-
tablshing a public library Or reading
room iD Opelousas was Ugain discussed
by a number of our public spirited cltl-
zens, prominent among whom was MIR.
JOS. B. Clements, who obtained from
some of our live towns in this State
where such organizations flourish some
important Information bearing upon the
subject. The attention of our people was
at the time so fully occupied with poll
tics that it was deemed wise to hold the
matter in allegiance. Now, however,
the time has come when active steps
should be taken to push the scheme.
The cost would he tritiing and the ben
efits incalculable. In suggesting the
establishment of such an institution at
Franklin, the Attakapas Eindicator
says:
This reading room could be opened a
few hours each night, when the boys
gather around the street corners for the
mere pastime, and which pastime leads
on to drunkenness aud crime. On Sun
day, from 7 o'clock in the morning until
3 in the evening would allow each per-
son in the town Il couple of hours iu lit
erary pleasures.
Each of the daily, weekly and month
ly publications in the country would
send copy free, and in course OF time,
the hall would contain collection of
books and magazines worthy of pride
and favor of the general people.
When education is pushed to its real
rank, murders are fewer, theft is less
numerous, society is polished, manhood
is preserved, Christianity is uplifted,
hoodlumism is downtrodden and the
world advanced.

to distinguish a tariff from "a door nail,
or a union soldier from a neutral" can
examine the section of the tariff relating
to the subject for himself, and under
stand at a glance that there is no such
quirk about it as is pretended. In the
first place, the millers of the United
States manufacture their flour from
wheat grown within the limits of the
country, almost exclusively. They do SO
because the supply is abundant and can
be used more conveniently and profit
ably. The amount of wheat imported
from Canada is so slight, if there is any,
as to cut no figure at all; and whatever
OF it does come across the line must and
does pay the regular duty of 25 cents
per bushel, unless it is smuggled. The
provision Of the Mckinley law allowing
a drawback for materials which are i'm
ported, paying duty, and again exported
after being made INTO manufactured
articles is not, and practically cannot be
taken advantage of in the case of wheat.
This is for the simple reason that the
provision, which was clearly intended
for materials of Il different nature, ION.
tains a condition with which the manu-
%tacturers of wheat cannot comply, but
which must be met in order to secure
the rebate OF drawback. And they can-
not meet this condition because of the
nature Of the completed article which
must be subjected to it. The condition
or proviso in the law is to the effect that
the imported material must be capable
OF identification in the completed article,
and that such completed article must
itself show the proportion or measure of
the identical imported material it con-
taine. When this can be done, the ex-
porter of the finished product may
obtain a drawback on account of the
imported material shown as forming
part of it. 1t needs no argument to
show that nothing of the sort can be
done with flour and wheat. "When the
bag is opeu' not even a free trade
philosopher can show how much Cana
dian wheat is in the -four, or whether
there is any. The consequence is that
as a matter of both fact and necessity
there is no drawback paid on any i'm
ported wheat, and the Northwestern
farmer is not in any way deprived by the
law of his tariff protection against COM
petition of Canadian wheat.

The Independent, edited by A. H.
Foss, the populist candidate for con.
gress, publishes an article abusing
Governor Burke because he did not lis.
ten to the demands of the people and
hold a short session of the legislature
two years ago. The length of the ses.
sions and the time of meeting is fixed by
the constitution, and Governor Burke
has no more to do with the length ofthe
sessions than he has with the length of
the month of February, and if he should
undertake to adjourn the legislature,
either according to his sweet will or at
the demands of the people. he would be
liable to be hung for treason. The
democrats of the slope are cordially in
vited to consider the kind of a crowd
they were invited to vote for when the
convention undertook to cram the popu-
list state ticket down their throat.

The tax on calico is 5 cents per yard.
The ordinary price of calico is S cents.
On that basis the tax is 100 per cent.
and the robbery is simply awful. A poor
widow buys some goods at a fire sale and
pays 81 cents per yard. Then the rob-
berry (?) becomes simply indefensible, for
the tariff is 200 per cent, and the
cheaper the goods get the more terrible
the tariff robbery appears. Raise the
price of the calico to 10 cents and it is
but so per cent. Increase it to 20 cents
per yard and it is only Is per cent. TIL
tariff on steel nails was 4 cents per
pound. They are sold at s1.65 per hun
dred pounds. That would give a tariff
percentage of PAP per cent. But the
Mckinley bill reduced the tariff to 2
cents per pound, but that left the awful
robbery of 12l per cent, according to
the tariff liar, when as a matter of fact
there is no tax, for the nails retail at less
than the lower tariff, and none are i'm
ported.

The judge declares that only nine out
of the COMMITTEES of forty-three took
action in the matter, and that three of
these were opposed. The Judge has
challenged Mr.. Shortrldge to meet and
discuss with him the issues of the cam
palgn, and he calls upon the democrats
opposed to the "unholy alliance" to send
in their names to the Sun. There must
be something the matter with the demo-
cratic party this year. They cast l 5000
votes two years ago. Judge Brooks and
others claim they would not have cast

a full ticket in the field. A confessed

The author of the following foul stain
upon the pages of American journalism
is the populist candidate for congress,
and democrats have been ordered by
their bosses to vote his state and cleo
toral ticket, as the democrats have no
nominations, except Judge O'Brien for
congress. The article from which this
is clipped was published in a recent copy
of the Normanden. The editor of that
paper also runs the Independent, but, of
course, he doesn't publish in English
articles of this class:

THE country at large will hardly
know whether to sympathize most with
prosecuted Peck of New York, or with
the demoralized democrats who are still
trying to avert the blow that has already
descended in the publication of his re-
port. As in the fable of the boys and
the frogs, it may be sport for the on
lockers, but they must feel that it is
death to them. The campaign of this
fall affords no spectacle so ludicrous as
that of the misguided, frantic efforts of
the democracy to divert public attention
from the damning evidence against them
contained in that report, by dragging its
author before n court and another in
q farcical attempt at criminal prosecu-
ton. Peck has already been discharged
by mt tribunal, and will certainly be
acquitted FROM all criminality, moral or
legal.
