Ballot Reform,

We have about concluded that, moth
ing whatever will be done by the pres
emit Legislature on this subject. There
has been some card shutting, much
parleying, and nothing done. The ses-
sion is drawing to a close. The people
demand ballot reform and have been
outspoken on the subject. Our repre-
s%entatives when at home join in the ex-
preston of desire to have it, but when
in Genera! Assembly convened, they
appear to lose the power of acting.
They have at last excogitated what
Is called an election law, and it appears
to be about a rehash of the present one,
with the exception of evident efforts to
enable factions to hold the fort.
Governor Foster ia outspoken in his
dlsapproval of it, and we and the peo-
pie thank, him for it.
Ii the Legislature has not the patri-
otism and courage to do what their con-
stituents demand should be done, it is
gratifying to realize that the Governor
has. As to the election law now before
that body, we do not hesitate to say
it is a miserable and cowardly p~1etence
and nothing more. 1t has nothing to
recommend it, because there is nothing
in it that cannot be evaded just as
easily as the provisions of the present
n are. We need a ballot reform that
will render evasions of the election law
unnecessary and a law that will make
evasions criminal practically.
The Opelousas courier., 1894-06-30
The Naval Academy.

She Board of Visitors to the Naval
Academy are going to recommend i'm
their report to the President that the
cours of study for cadets at that in
stitution be extended from four to six
years. This will not be agreeable to
the boys, but the faculty as we'll as the
board think it will make better officers
of them. The course is really six years
at present !; that is. a boy spends four
years at his books and exercises at An
napolis and is then sent to sea for two
years as a petty officer on a man-of-war
to learn seamanship. He is supposed
to be studying all this time, and at the
end OF two years must come back to
the academy and pass an examination
before he can receive a commission.
The Older officers in the service, as we'll
as the faculty of the academy, agree
that these two years at sea do many
boys more harm than good, and that all
of them would receive greater benefit
and be preserved from demoralizing
influences if the practice was abolished.
So it is proposed now to keep them
under the eye Of the faculty for six
years instead of four, and have them
