A NEW species of sausage is about t.
ne manufactured by the German gov
ernment out of dried bananas. 1t is
claimed that meal made out OF
bananas is more nutritious thai
wheat and that the fruit is richer in
food constituents than any otheI
product of the earth. Humboldt
pointed out years ago the great value
of the banana as sustainer of humau
life, and stated that the earth would
produce bananas faster than any other
vegetable. Banana meal, tits claimed, =,
is as nearly perfect food as can be
desired. 1t can be made so as to re-
tain its good qualities without decay,
aud at a smaller cost than wheat -four.
1t is said to make excellent bread, and
that fine quality of beer can be
brewed from It, The skins can be
manufactured into cloth of superior
texture and, all in ALL this wonderful
vegetable is destined to become of in.
calculable value to the human race.

BAeeAeeMEN MAY STRIKE.

Dissatisfaction Among the Luggage
Handlers on the Central Hudson.
PoUGHKEEPsTE, N. Y, Aug. 10. There
is talk of a strike among the baggagemen
on the Hudson River Railroad running
between New York and Albany.
About a month ago the wages Of 10 of
the baggagmen was reduced $4 a month.
TIE company restored the cut on applica-
tion of representative of the baggage
m en-, but the number of baggagemen
was reduced, so that the remaining ones
found more work to do Hence the dis
satisfaction and threatened strike. The
men want to work in groups-a opera
tive way of reducing the hours Of work.
The matter has been much talked OF
by railroad men here for a week past.

SENATOR ALI SON, in a recent
speech, said: SIT is perfectly well
known that until the tariff of 1850 the
Canadians furnished New England
with their horses, practically, and yet
we increased the duties on horses 80
that the farmers OF Iowa and the
farmers Of Illinois, who raise fine
horses, can compete with the people OF
the Dominion of Canada on just and
equal terms as respects the production
OF horses. So when you come TO take
the agricultural schedule the act OF
1890 was Intended to benefit, and II
did benefit, the agriculluralists of the
states Of Iowa and Illinois and 1t ID
not an easy thing to make them
believe that duty on barley, or q
duty on horses, or on cattle, is fraud
upon them, 1t enabling them tc
embrace a portion at least Of th'
market for these articles in our OWE
oopntry."

THE Democrats professed great
jubilation over the elections of 1890
and claimed that it was a condemna-
ton by the people of the Mckinley
law. Yet they are trying TO obscure
the tariff issue and to bring forward
the purely local issue in the states in
which they elected the Congress two
years ago. This is a confession Of
weakness. Local issues can cut nc
figure in Presidential year, and the
people cannot be blinded on the tariff
issue.

THE SCHOOL HOUSE FLAG.

1t Stimulates the Chi1dren's Interest and
Promotes Patriotism.
The organized 'school house flag
movement" has been in progress during
the greater part of fouryears. In that
short time the seed sown in one earnest
suggestion has borne fruit in school after
school, in town after town, in state after
state.
Though there are still many schools
which r not az yet provided with the
flag, the time does not seem far distant
when no public school shall be too poor,
tooremote or too Indifferent to have the
stars and stripes floating above its roof.
Sufficient time has passed since the
movement began to make it possible to
judge the results of the unfurling of the
flag above so many schools.
Has the proceeding had a real mean
ing to the scholars2 Has it stirred up in
thesbreasts of boys and.girls the hope Of
living tobe brave men and good women:
Has it begun to serve with the chill.

Glorious Possibilities.

It is only as one rises to the national
conception of what Columbus Day, Oct.
10, may be made that it takes on its
true character. The day itself, simply
as a way of calling up the past and civ
ing it historical significance, will be full
of meaning, but it will be much more
than this. The historical part of the
celebration is not confined to the mere
act of the discovery of America by
Columbus on the morning of Oct. IL.
It is a day that reaches back through
four ~centuriessof progress, and it in
cludes all that America has passed
through in these 400 years-the crowd
ing out of one race by another; the
succession of one civilization after a
other; the growth of new ideas, and
the putting of old ideas to new service
the introduction of nobler manners, bet
ter laws, a larger and freer life than the
world has known before, and as the
fundamental element in this new order,
the creation and the development of our
public school system, than which moth
ing is more truly representative of Amer
lean ideas and institutions.
The eagerness and appreciation, with
which the suggestion for this peculiar
celebration has been caught up shows
that it touches the right chord in the
patriotic hearts Of the young people
throughout the whole nation.

The Twilight of the Century.

We are in the Saturday evening of the
fourth century Of Americas discovery.
We are nearing one of the great mile
stones of history. An epoch in Amer
can life is closing. In a few weeks VIC
pass the day which rounds up the full
measure of the 400 years that are gone.
But it is not proposed that we stand even
for a day on that great dividing line to
speculate upon American achievement
and progress. We shall pause for but a
moment and contemplate with wonder
and admiration the grandest production
and the most enduring monument of the
first 400 years of American life-our
public school system.
The earnest enthusiasm with which
the public schools Of America are grasp
ing the idea Of a Columbian public
school celebration for Oct, - augurs
well for a successful national demonstra-
ton.
On Oct. IL the eyes of the nation will
be turned upon the public schools, which
form the keystone in the arch of our
civilization. Throughout the length and
breadth of our land the Is, 600, 900 pupils

of their being on the alert, in the matter OF

of this parish has been making himself es-
pecially jealous in the matter of securing
sherif's sales for the paper of which he is
director and stakeholder, and several puoiIcat
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 beSn
diverted from us at the special solicitatlorGbt
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 m
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 C~oURIER-and they are especially
warned against allowing themselves to be in-
iuced to consent that the advertisement
should be done in sone other paper.

New Election Law.

The Review suggests hat the pres
ent election law be repealed. 1t is on
~ an expense to the taxpayers, for
after putting the paper in the slot the
commissioner does the rest of the vot-
ing. Let the general assembly APP
point a commissioner consisting of thir-
teen men in each parish, with a pro
vision that none of said commissioners
shall be eligible to office. This com
mission is t. receive sealed proposals
until within ten days of the time of
election from all persons wishing an
Office, stating the position desired, and
how much cash he is willing to pay for
the same, the highest bidder to get the
office, and the amount paid for same
to be placed for benefits of schools
and levees. We would thus save large
sums of money and a great big heap of
wear and tear.-Morgan City Review.
