Louisiana Bolt Strikes No Terror to
the Soul Of True Democracy.
Washington, d. c., Sept. THE
Democratic party won't tax the people
enough for our benefit, therefore, we will
Join the republicans " Such is the inter
probation put on the disahection of the
Louisiana democrats by the democrats of
the national capital The disaffection
and threat to bolt strike no
terror to the soul of true democ-
racy The dIsafection may cost the
Democratic party several representative
votes in the House, but the loyal men Of
the party, having its best interests at
heart, are not worried by that. They de-
clare that the protectiOnists have no
place in the democratic party; that the
sooner they Join the republicans the bet
ter for the democrats; that the democrats
can get along without them.
The democrats here say that while the
party may suffer temporarily from the
loss of protectionists who have claimed to
be democrats, it will be greatly benefited
in the future. A complete triumph can
not be won by an army whose ranks are
swollen by men who are at heart sym
pathizers of the enemy. The quicker
such men get out and enlist under their
true colors the quicker will the democracy
know just where ii stands know Just on
whom IL can depend TO fight 5quarely and
fairly in the fight for a tariff for revenue
only and the abolition of class legislation
The democrats in national conven-
tion assembled have declared that
protection is unconstitutional that no
tarlh save for revenue just sufficient for
the government expenses is warranted

A dispatch from Shanghai says it is
stated there that a strong force of Jap
anese troops have occupied an island in
Society Bay, northwest of Port Arthur.
This island is a base of operations. The
Chinese were taken completely by
surprise and, consequently, were
able TO offer no opposition TO
the occupation of the island, or the land
ing of large quantities of arms, ammuni-
tion provisions, etc, which are being
stored there. Everything connected with
the affair indicates the purpose of the
Japanese to stand a siege, if necessary,
until the force occupying the island shall
have been reinforced sufficiently TO justify
an attack upon Port Arthur.

We published last week short and
hurriedly written article on 1.-The estab-
lishment Of an oil mill in Providence.
Our intention was simply to chow
that the plan we advocated was pracsi-
cable. Since then a friend has furn-
isbed us on the matter complete data
that we are, glad to print for the
benefit of the public, in order TO prove
conclusively that there is money 10 oil
mills. These data were given him by
gentleman perfectly familiar with
the working Of an oil mill.
We have been told that an oil mill
of less capacity than 80 tens would
not be profitable in Providence, aud all
the data furnished us are for an oil
mill of that capacity per day.
The cost of a 80 ton. mill would be
about $4,000, aud such mill could
be operated successfully with $500 or
1000 tons Of seed per year.
/ In order to make it clear to every
one. it is necessary to give close esti-
mate of the working OF such mill per
day.
