70 cur Friends and Patrons.

We wish to call the attention of the friends
and patrons of the COURIER to the necessity
Of their being on the alert, in the matter of
judicial publications, tsheriff's sales especial
iyl. as neglect on their part to give positive
Instructions as to where they desire such
advertisement published, is apt to result in
our being deprived of the patronage, that
would otherwise be given to us. The sherlf
of this parish has been making himself es-
pecially Jealous in the matter of securing
sherifFs sales for the paper of which he is
director and stockholder, and several publiea-
tions Of that nature have appeared in that
paper which the parties interested would
have selected to be done in the COURIER, had
they been consulted; and others have been
diverted from US at the special solicitation OF
the sheriff or his deputies serving the papers
in the matter of seizures.
To those who prefer to patronize any other
paper in this parish we have no desire to in
terfere with their preferences, but our friends
who wish to favor US with their patronage
are earnestly requested to see that the proper
officers are instructed to have the publication
done in the CoURIER-and they are especially
warned against allowing themselves to be in
luced to consent: that the advertisement
should be done in some other paper.

Hurrah !!

Let it be known to all the denizens
ofSt. Landry, that Opelousas will, in
due time, have a compress company IN
full operation. We are reliably in
formed that certain substantial gentle
men of this town have already asso-
ciated themselves in the usual form,
that the Press, etc, have been pro-
cured, and that an eligible lot will be
supplied by one of the Company for
the location of the Cotton Press. The
gentlemen who have undertaken the
work, are of finest intelligence, and are
fine business men whose intimate ac-
quaintance with the people of st. Lam
dry, gives positive assurance of sue
cess.
Thus we perceive that step by step,
as the weeks and months fly by, the
people are awaking from the sleep of
inertness, to consciousness of the ne
cessities of the time and the situation
AS population increases, wants are
multiplied, and necessity becomes i'm
perious. Now for rice mill, and ice
factory--an oil mill, electric lights and
telephones. Add to these and other
enterprises we might mention, the
erection of adequate school houses, the
organization of High Schools, the inn
provement of the side walks and the
public roads leading to town, and
property will rise in value three to five
fold.

The Legislature of this State has for
nearly two months been skirmishing
and wasting time trying to elect a
United States Senator. bat finding it
impossible to agree, have decided to
put the election off until the next
meeting of the General Assembly, two
years hence. The present Legislature
makes us very, very tired. Hardly two
of its members seem to agree to but
one thing, and that is to draw their
wages promptly. The good they have
done the State could be told with q Q.

Dickie, of Michigan, one of the lead
ers of the 'Prohibition Party" has de-
clared openly before the Cincinnati
Convention 1--WE don't care what re-
ligion a man has, be he Protestant,
Catholic or Atheist. 1t tconcerns US not
whether he drink liquor or not, as
long as he votes the Prohibition ticket.
That alone is the proof of party faith.
Many drinkers vote our ticket every
year. All we want is votes. This is
not for as question of morality or re-
ligion We are political party like
any other and must conduct our cam
paign in basiness-like STYLE" This
means that it is votes-that is to say,
office-tllat these Ftsaints'' want--just
like others our readers wot of.

Judge Walter Gresham, who is one
of the most upright and thoughtful
men who has ever occupied seat on
the bench in this or any other country,
declares that the most insiduons of all
forms of tyranny is that of plutocracy,
and every thinking man will admit
that the country is becoming less Dem
ocratic and more plutocratic. He be-
lieves, unless stop is put to the con-
troll of elections and legislation by the
use of money, that the people will soon
be convinced that they can no longer
rely on the ballot as means to redress
their wrongs and when that time
comes there will be a terrible revolu-
tion in this country which will result
in the downfall of the plutocratic
classes.

Another significant Indication of the
rising tide of Democratic sentiment in
this country, is the conversion of the

party of Capitalization and unfair
tariff discrimination while the Demo
cratic party has progressed to the true
principles of Republican government.

Why should railroads give free
passes over their lines to Legislators
any more than other persons Is there
not a significant motive in their doing
so9 Yet strange to say, it is usual for
members of the legislature to travel on
free passes and at the same time col
lect mileage from the State. Is this
right in policy or principle ! Should
not our law makers hold themselves
independent of any sort of obligations
to corporations or to individuals :?
Have they the right to collect mileage
under free passes when travel costs
them nothing IN. o. States.

Our Police Jury.

The good people of Opelousas, and
the parish generally have been no lit
tie amused over the contention made
touching the re-appointment of Mr..
Ed. Boagni as member of the Police
Jury OF this parish. Believing that
majorities should rule, one or two Pc
titlons were gotten up recommending ng
him to the Governor for re-appoint-
ment. These were signed by about
ouO voters, comprising as substantial
men as can be mustered in any contest.
influential persons waited on the Gov.
ernor and urged his appointment.
His official career as President of the
Police Jury, had been eminently salts
factory, and the people knew no better
man for the Office could be found.
A very worthy gentleman was men
toned, by some of his friends, and his
appointment was urged with, charac-
terlstlc persistence. Personally the
gentleman is in every respect worthy
OF preferment, but we saw no earthly
reason for displacing Mr.. Boagni and
believed the candidacy of his opponent
was sprung upon the governor in a
captious spirit by some who took the
lead in it. The people considered
that a worthy officer should not he
ousted, or denied an office he had sat
isfactorily filled, because certain in
dividuals were not friendly to him.
But the struggle is now over, and we
are informed Mr.. Boagni has been ap-
pointed. We think the Governor could
not have found more capable, faith
full and desirable appointee in st. Ian
dry. Will the time ever come when
acknowledged merit will surely til
umph over personal dislikes and pre-
sumtious captiousness ?

The Healthiest Spot on Earth.
Fine Mineral WaGer-The Best
Place to Spend the Spring
and Summer Months

Southern Pines, Moore Co, n. c., is situa
ted on a high sand mountain, and there are
several causes which go to make it the
healthiest spot on earth, and the very best
place to stop at during the spring and sum
mer months. Its elevation above the sur
rounding section for more than one hundred
miles causes a delightful breeze at all times
during the summer. Its location amid a vast
forest of long leaf pines gives it an atmos-
phere which physicians of national reputation
say is the most healthful to be found in the
United States. The soil being a pure white
sand gives perfect drainage, and therefore
no form of malaria can exist. The mineral
springs near by, issueing from singular
medical store house bnilt by nature aud curl
ously situated in this sand mountain seems
as though the Creator intended this spot as
place where mankind might rest and regain
health.
This place was first noted as a winter
health resort, and thousands Of persons from
the Northern States have come to it during
the past few years. and without q single ex
ception they have been benefited. During
the past two summers it has been shown by
actual test that those suffering from weak
ness of mind or body can find greater relief
at this place than any other known resort
DIR. Wild, an eminent physician of Connect
cut and editor of the New England Medical
Monthly" has been investigating for the ben
eft of Northern physicians, and he says
Southern Pines is the best known place for
those who need rest and sleep. He says the
first inclination one has is to sleep, and that
this rest, without the use of drugs, enables
the natural forces Of the body to impart
strength to the diseased parts. Those suffer
ing from Indigestion, rheumatism and all
blood disorders, nervousness caused by over
work or any other cause, find relief and
health without taking medicine.
Visit Southern Pines and stop at the
Southern Pines House.
Rates of board less than at the majority
of summer resort hotels in the South ac

The house of representatives has
passed the bill repeating the act of
1890, authorizing the Governor to ap-
point police jurors, and the measure is
now in the hands of the Senate.
We trust that body will promptly
pass the bill and that the Governor will
affix to it,his signature without hesitan-
cy. 1t would be simply restoring to the
people prerogative which is theirs as
a matter of right and justice. The po-
lice jurors are the local legislatures of
the people; they control and regulate
the home affairs of the people; they
appropriate and expend the peoples
money and as matter of simple JUS
tice the various members of these bod
les should and ought to be elected by
the people. If the people don't know
what is best for them, surely the Gov
ernor cannot be expected to know any
better.-Th Thibodaux Sentinel
