That Surplus.

There has been several edito-
rails and communications in vari-
GUS papers throughout the State
about the surplus that we have in
the State treasury.
These papers land it is remark
able that every one that has any
thing to say about the disposal of
this surplus, denied its very exis-
tence IN the late campaign) seem
to think that if there is surplus
in the treasury that it should be
prorated out among the people
and that special session of the
Legislature should be called to
lessen the taxation.
This is the merest buncombe
Every one knows or ought to
know, that between the years 1881
and 1888 a little over half a mil
lion dollars was appropriated
above and over the receipts for
that same period. Every one
knows, or ought to know, that that
amount has to be paid out of the
savings of the Nichols govern
ment.
Every one knows. or ought to
know, that the State owes about
IA million dollars and that what
ever surplus we have each year
ought to so towards forming a
sinking fund looking to the ulti-
mate paying of this debt.
Let the present rate of taxation
stand and let the surplus which is
bound to accumulate every year
go towards paying the debt we
owe.
We think that it is very much
to- the glory of the Nichols adj
mlnlstration that this surplus was
allowed to accumulate and the
writer, who lad the honor to serve
on the appropriation committee
OF the last House, has it direct
from Capt. .. Il. Steele that he
expected to see by the end of TIN
present administration all of the
floating debt OF the State paid and
about haif million OF the State
bonds retired.-St Mary Banner.

A Promising Future.

The sole condition which now
prevents a large immigration from
the northwestern states, from tax
ing advantage Of the opportunities
open in the South, is ignorance of
the situation. Such ignorance
can not be of long duration.
Briefly, there is not elsewhere
upon the globe, a territory open
to the Anglo-Saxon race with such
varied and great resources, and
such propitious and easy condi-
tions of life and labor so abund-
antly supplied with rivers, har-
bors and with lines of railroad
transportation, or SO well located
to command the commerce of both
hemispheres.
The prohesy Of what our people
will make of these advantages in
the struggle for commercial su-
premacy among the nations of the
earth is but family written in
what has already been done, under
adverse conditions, by each sec
ton working alone. Now their
united strength will be brought
to bear on the easiest part of the
problem. The most progressive
race on earth-the leaders of the
world in science, invention, in
wealth, in energy and in enter
prise-will here develop the grea-
test natural resources under the
most favorably conditions posi-
ble.-The Forum.

Gov. Foster was very popular among
a certain class of people, in this parish,
up to a few weeks ago, but now they
have changed their mind and say: FOs-
ter is u. g, we will never vote for him
again." Well, we do not think that
Governor Foster is so bad, on the CONTRA
ry, it looks as if his popularity is increa.
sing daily all over the State, caused by
his newly adopted policy. He is show
ing himself to be a faithful servant to
his party principles, and stands closely
to upright and devoted Democrats. We
suppose that Governor keeps himself
well posted on the record of the leading
Democrats, in each parish.-Reveille

Struggling for Recognition.

We noticed that Mr.. David
Rees, president of the defunct Nc.
Emery parish executive committee
of st. Martin parish has called q
meeting of that committee to meet
at Breaux Bridge tomorrow.
We understood that that com.
mittee was out of existence the
very moment that the McEneryites
of this parish, including the pre-
sident of the committee had gone
to Mr.. Foster, the victorious can
didate for Governor and declared
that they submitted to the decision
of the people of the parish of st.
Martin, of the State of Louisiana,
and of the committee Of seven,
who one and all recognized the
Foster faction Of the Democracy
as having reason to exist
When those gentlemen recogn-
lied the Foster faction as the De-
mOcracy, it was recognizing that
they had no real right or cause
to keep on and pursue the course
they had adopted. Their mission
was ended. And they, themselves
admitted that at the time, for
when the Senatorial convention
was called the Foster committee
only sent delegates to represent
this parish, the McEnery commit
tee being dissolved, out of exis-
tance, did not then give any sign
of life, and our delegation to the
Senatorial convention was uncon-
tested.
But now, a cali is made by the
president of that committee FOE q
meeting of its members, undoubt-
eddy to try and have same recog-
nized by the Foster committee
and to compromise matters; but
will they do this, ~ill they reco-
gnize committee who is aefunst,
will the people Of this parish en-
terrain any such N4a? We be-
lieve not, and the Foster commit
tee should not consider or enter
tain any proposition coming from
the McEnery committee, as they |
have no right to exist and no au-
thority to make any proposition
whatever.

Molasses AS Fuel.

The Louisiana Planter revives
the proposition to use common
Louisiana molasses as fuel in the
sugar houses in consequence of
its low price, which renders it
scarcely worth while to ship it to
market.
Last year this question of what
to do with their lower grades of
molasses bothered tire planters a
great deal Some Of those on the
Teche dumped it in the bayou and
caused many complaints about
this dissertation, which made that
beautiful bayou foul and ill-smell-
ing; and some tried dumping it in
tanks in She hope that it might
some day become of value. Vari-
Gus other plans were suggested of
disposlng OF this bulky product of
so little value, the one which at
tracted most attention being the
proposition to distil it into alcohol
or rum, as is done in the West
Indies.
The proposition to use it as fuel
was thrown out at the time, and is
now repeated by the Planter.
Molasses is as low or lower at pre-
sent than ever, two cents gallon
being scarcely obtainable for it.
AT this rate, allowing 166 2-3 gal
Ions to a ton, the molasses will be
worth 50 80 a ton on the planta-
ton, or less than the price of coal.
In the matter of carbon, it will
compare favorably with the aver
age coal, consisting of 8 per cent
ash, 70 per cent and " per cent
carbon go per cent succose and
glucose and IL per cent gums),
and would make an excellant fuel, |
with the proper devices for burn
ing 1t, such as are used for other
liquid fluids.
This plan has already been
adopted in Cuba, where the situa-
ton is the same as it is here, and
considerable quantities of molas-
SEES have been used there with
success. 1t was poured or spray
ed on the bagasse as it entered
the furnace and made q splendid
and cheap fuel. 1t remains to be
seen whether Louisiana planters
will take advantage of the same
opportunity offered them or allow
his product to go to waste.
The molasses crop for 1892 pro-
misses to be 10000 tons; most of
his is too good to be used as fuel,
md commands fair price, but
he tendency is toward turning
'ut a larger proportion of the low
r grade molasses every year, SO
hat there will be a larger amount,
therefore,, to be disposed of. AS
here seems to be very little dis
position to try the manufacture of
lcohol the possible use of the mo-
asses as fuel seems to offer the
'est relief.--Times-Democrat.

Illis community was greatly shocked
to lear of the sudden death on Tuesday
night of Mrs Clinton B. Hard, as she was
returning home from Sunderland. Fur
thel particulars are not learned.
Snce the above was in type, another
correspondent writes, in addition to
whit is said to-day under Arlington
items: The residents not only of this
vihge but of the whole town, were ex-
citd and their hearts stirred deeply on
Tuesday night to learn of the sudden
doth of Mrs. Clinton b. Hard. She was
riding with her husband and others to a
sqial gathering in the borders of Sun
dfland and Manchester, when owing to
imperfect sleighing, several, among
item Mrs. Hard, started to walk up the
seepest part of the hill. Owing to some
,frevious heart trouble, the exertion of
tt9sl fiAG caused g congestion of blood in
" rs carried by her husband and frieiio
to the sleigh and efforts made to relieve
her, but death resulted in very few
minutes. Her remains were brought to
her home the same night and prepared
for burial. The funeral is appointed for
1 o'clock on Saturday afternoon. There
is no need to dwell upon the fact of this
terrible affliction, which has fallen not
only upon her own relatives, but also a
very large circle of friends, Her heart
was always kind, loving and sympathetic.
Her disposition was ever cheerful,
bright and happy. Her character was
that of true, nOble-hearted Christian
woman. She was an equally welcome
visitor at the house of sickness and be
reavement, where her hands were busy
fulfilling her hearts desires, and at the
parties of pleasure, where her brightness
and ability to make others happy maze
her presence a necessity. At the home
where she and her husband lived happy
life for over "a years, her loss is a calam
itv. In the church and in the community
at large there will long remain deeI
gap which herlarge-minded cheerfulness
ana her broad sympathy have filled
Words are feeble to tell of the loss whicl
so many have sustained, but where sc
many mourn her departure all lips have
been moved with sympathy and will
loving remembrances of her good deeds
All hearts are troubled, as is mine, b.
this sad sad event
