nd negroes shan be assessed separ.,,-

and negroes shan be assessed sepaxaco-
~, 50 as to determine the progress
made by tho latter and how much they
contribute towards the negro schools;
and with tho design, possibly, that
under certain circumstances the taxes
paid by the negroes shall be set aside
for the public schools, and that paid by
the whites for the white schools.
The assessments are not favorable 10

country parishes Of only ss,7ss.es7. to

In the state. In st. John it is IS. 10, and
st. Charles S9.25.
The last three parishes are all rich
sugar parishes and have = largo ma
jority of negroes, who control political
affairs and elect all the local officers,
yet it seems that the negroes are poorer
there than anywhere else in the state.
In st. Tammany parish, however. where
they are in a minority, they average
s62. 40 apiece and own IS per cent. OF all
the property in the parish, and in Cam
eron, where the whites are in an over

$S1.eo per capita
The assessments clearly prove that
where the negroes are congregated in
large bodies and are in a majority, no
matter how rich the soil and whether
or not they are in political control, they
are comparatively poor, and that they

A Nickel Problem.

Tho in-the-slot-machine has
found q new application A garden
folding chair of iron is standing in q
walk in the botanical garden at Berlin,
Germany, with slot in II. II you drop
nickel into 1t you can easily put down
the seat and sit on it. As soon as you
relieve the seat of your weight it will
Immediately fold up again. Thus every
time you rise you have TO part with an
other nickel. The inventor proposes to
change this by enabling the sitter to
make the chair keep open when he
rises. If he does so, a whole company
might use the chair one after another
for one nickel. How can he prevent
that?

TRUE

The following from the New Or
leans States has our entire. en-.
dorsement. Ii there is nothing in
the tariff issue--of which the force
bill is, avowedly and conclusively,
but an incident and a Means
there is neither meaning nor sense
in The pariy's platform and nomi-
nee. And there is no lesson TO be
learned from The election of 1890
Bnurke Cochran opened the
campaign in New York las, night
by making a speech in which he
declared tina, the force bill will be
the vital issue, and that there
should be no experimenting with
the taliff question until hat issue
is forever settled bv the defeat of
The Republican party. The States
Is inclined to The belief that the
Democratic party will not agree
with Mr.. Cochran, that the tariff
question should be put aside, and
what is more, the party is not go
Ing to permit either the New York
Sun, from which he derives his in.
spiratlon, or any other political
influence 10 shelve the tariff issue,
because il is as important as the
force bill, and The Democratic par.
~ wOnld be cowar,lIy TO abandon
it. Mr.. Cteveland's letter of &C.
ceptance, however, will show MIR.
Cochran that the Democratic par
ty is going to carry the banner of
tariff reform 10 the front and meet
the Republican party ON that issue
as well as the force bill. The
young Tammany leader is the first
Democratic orator TO advocate The
doGging of The tariff question, but
there will be few TO follow his ex-
ample.

The Court House and records oil
Wayne county was destroyed by
fire on Tuesday night last. The
fire was discovered about II O'Clock
and in half an hour it was Level
with The ground. Nearly all the
records in the Clerks office and
all in the SheriG's Office were
burned. All registration and as.
sessment books were destroyed.
The house was a frame building,
and together with furniture and
fixtures, was valued at $1,000. II
was certainly the work of an in
cendiary.

The Democratic campaign in
New York was opened in Brook.
lyn Monday night, with David b
Hill as the principal speaker. |,
was a grand, inspiring occasion
and the spacious Academy of Mus.
ic could not hold the vast throns
that assembled. His speech was
a clear and eloquent presentation
of the issues Of the day, and al.
most every phrase carried with il
the widest applause. The force
bill was denounced in scathine
terms, He ingeniously avoided
mention of Clevelano's name, un-
til the last words of his speech,
when the audience arose Ell masse
and cheered him to the echo.
