To our Friends and Patrons.

We wish to call the attention of he friends
and patrons of the COURIER TO the necessity
of their being on the alert, III the matter of
judicial publications. (sheriff's sales especial
lyl, as a neglect on their part TO give positive
instructions rs 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 sheriff
of this parish has been making himself es
peciaily Jealous in the matter of securing
sheriffs sales for tho paper of which he is
director and stockholder, and several publca-
tions of that nature have appeared i'll that
paper which the parties interested would
have selected to be doue 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 auS other
paper in this parish 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 tn be in-
duced to consent that the gertisement
should be done in some other p~r..r.

Other Strong Reasons.
N. o. City Item.

N. o. City Item.
A great wrong is traced to the system
of conducting parish governments by
the Weekly Truth, of Baton Rouge.
That paper wants more jurisdiction con-
ferred on justices of the peace, and that
paper says: Criminal expenses are a
very serious matter to the taxpayer and
one where all the relief possible should
be granted by the constitutional COM
mittee. II our schools are not better
provided for than they are it is for the
reason that too much money is required
in criminal prosecutions; il our roads
are not what they should be it is because
hundreds of misdemeanors are sent to
the District Court which should be dis
posed of by justices of the peace. We
submit these matters to the consldera-
tion of the Constitutional Commission
in the hope that some plan may be de-
vised to give relief in the premises"
The Weekly Truth does not think a
constitutional convention necessary, but
believes that all that is admittedly re-
quired can be accomplished by amend
ments. It acknowledges, however, as
may be seen by the above, that there
are serious defects in the present in
strument. The Item considers that
these defects are too many and too inn
portant to be remedied by committee.
A constitutional convention is neces-
sary.
