UNINTERRUPTED PROGRESS.

The Advocate puts great stress on the
fact that GOV. McEnery recommended an
increase in percentage; that Is, that SIX
mills was not sufficient to run the State gov
ernment, but that both Nichols and Foster
found ii amply sufficient. Now what Is the
difference In raising the rate and raising
the assessed value? Is it not one and the
same thing? For instance we take st. Lam
dry, her assessment has been raised 81 ,0O0,-
600. Think OF it, a raise of one million dol
lars in one year in one parish. This Ger
tainly will raise the revenue sufficiently
without increasing the rate.-Richland
Beacon News.
Is it possible that the esteemed Beacon
News will contend that If its candidate had
been elected Governor that the assessors
appointed by him would have disregarded
the plain letter of the law in regard to the
assessment Of property! Does our contem-
porary mean, byesle statement above made,
to intimate that the present assessors have
done wrong in complying with the law?
The history of the state ever since its re-
demptfon from radical oppression has
shown a continuous and uninterrupted in
crease In the assessed value OF her property.
1t did this under the administration OF GOV
ernor McEnery and the matter was very
properly viewed on all sides as most graf
of the Foster administration really desire
the prosperity of the State to be reversed
and to flow backwardsI AFTER having ,ie,I iof
fourteen years gone steadily forward with
the development of the State and with in
creaSing values consequent upon improved
industrial conditions throughouf the state,
is it possible that there can be any one so
utterly devoid of public spirit as to desire
to reverse the wheels of progress and to set
them in motion in the direction OF retro
gressfon?
The trouble is that some of the newspa-
pers and politicians In this state have been
prophesying calamity for so long that their
entire physical and mental organisms nave
become iaundiced and dyspeptic. They are
suffering from an aggravated attack OF
mental Jim jams superinduced by allowing
their ina gination to run riot among the
bogies conjured up to frfghten their enemies
with.

otes brethren; brace up your dyspeptlc,

honest facts once more. Be generous; De
