Food for Infants.

It is not generally known that in
France it is forbidden under penalties
for anyone to give infants under one
year any form of solid food unless such
be ordered by a written prescription
signed by a legally qualified medical
man. Nurses are also forbidden to use
in the rearing Of infants confided to
their care at any time or under any
pretext whatever any nursing bottle
provided with a rubber tube. Several
other similar and equally stringent
laws have recently been enacted by the
French government, which, despairing
of obtaining any increase in the birth
rate in their land, are now turning their
attention to the saving Of the few chill
dren that are born.

PRuDHoMME CITY, juno 26, 1894.
Prohibition is Il question of great I'M
portance to the laboring class of peo-
pie. 1t is a question that affects their
interest in many different ways. First,
think of the number Of farmers under
mortgage to-day that they have drunk
up in whiskey. Second, how many
families that can scarcely get meat and
bread for their wives and little children
and go half clothed. Third, how many
good, honest hard working men that
get killed just for the sake of taking a
little too much Of that miserable wIis-
ky, and think of their families-and
what are they to do9 There is the wo-
to care for, and the other "a goes to
the pe]nitentiary, perhaps for life.
Fourth, think of the expenses in a case
of that kind the parish is put to. Now,
| gentlemen, is all this not enough to tell
| you that prohibition would be the source
of wealth and the source Of peace and
happiness? Do you think the event
the parish gets from licenses pays the
| expenses which are caused by whisky?
| And further, who pays the %licenseg Is
| it the man who sells whisky or the one
that drinks it2 Naturally the one that
| drinks the whiskey is the one who pays
the license. Go to the poll and cast
| your votes for prohibition. Do not let
people humbug you and get you to think
we can not do without whisky, and we
will have it out of our way and enjoy
| the benefit of our labors. Is whisky
| so sweet that we cannot do without it,
or have the people become so democrat
lied from drinking that they have lost
all good moral feeling for their country
and family Y Athafn arc wa to-day m
account of that miserable stuff? Where
Moses was when the light went out-in
the dark ; and there we will remain If
whisky continues to hold sway in the
parish. If the people of this parish do
not carry prohibition, it will be in my
opinion because they have not the NOR
al courage to acknowledge that whisky
is a curse.

In relation to the fence now being

per to make a few remarks. l lotice
| that on the top of said fence or wall,
are being placed large spikes, sharpen
ed ut the end and pointing upwards,
some three or four. inches above the up
per cross bar.
The object OF this, | presume, Is to
prevent criminals escaping by slezlng

| whileIhe spikes may have this effect,

very ready opportunity OF escaping by
use of a blanket or some other material
had occasion to test the efficacy of
| these spikes, during the past week, and

cape of prisoners as intended they will
| assist the criminal who attempts flight.
By throwing a blanket to the top OF
this fence or wall, which becomes fas-
tened above, u ladder can be formed
wbrch will afford easy egress to the
prisoner within. | found that such
would be the case, by actual test.
Therefore, Messrs. Editors, | believe
that instead of having the desired effect
these spikes will assist rather than him

Ballot reform being the order OF the
day, it might not be amiss to quote a
parngraph FROM Bob IngersolIs speech
delivered ut Cooper's Union Oct. %,
1880.
Here is what he says: II am not on
Nv in favor of free speech, but | am also
in favor OF an absolutely honest ballot.
There is one king in this country F; there
is one emperor there is one supreme
Car; and that is the legally expressed
will of IL majority Of tho people. The
man who casts an illegal vote, the man
who refuses to count a legal vote, pois-
sons the fountain of power, poisons the
spling of justice, and is a traitor to the
only king in the land. The Govern
ment is upon the edge of Mexicanization
through fraudulent voting, The ballot
box is the throne of America the bal
lot box is the ark of the covenant. I'm
less we see to it that every man who
has q right to vule votes, III unless we
see to it that every honest vote is count
ed the days of this Republic are num-
bered."
This is in keeping with what yOu said
in your last issue but inasmuch as our
legislators do Dot seem to heedthe voice
of the press, the people should take a
hand in the movement and urge the
passage of some reform measure on
that line and if they fail to respond to
these united demands, then ours be the
duty of RELOCATING to private life these
unwolthy representatives. of the people,
