NO REASON FOR REGU.
LATORISM.

We have this week learned that
IN effort was being made, and with
some success, to reorganize the
Regulators in our parish, and we
have been requested to be silent
ON this subject because it might
have a good political effect.
We regret painfully that our
citizens, or at least, some of them
are willing and disposed to again
align themselves in a lawless and
entirely unnecessary organization.
Cannot our citizens see that the
effort to band them together un-
der some leader is to use them for
political purposes, and in order
to keep them together it will be
necessary to invent a cause for
their existance as an organization,
and this cause will be lawlessness
of some kind.
The MESSENGER will warn those
people that it will in the future as
in the past, disapprove such an
organization, and will expose and
denounce them in the severes'
language whenever they will com.
init any act contrary to the laws
aud peace of the country.
The MESSENGER will protect it:
people when they are right, bu
will condemn them when they art
wrong.
At the present time we can SCI
no just reason for the revival o
Regulatorism, and the people
should oppose all those wh'
aspire to Office and expect to &c
in power by lawless means.

TO PUBLIC SCHOOL
TEACHERS.

The MESSENGER received a COM
munication from Mr.. W. r. Burke,
Superintendent of the Parish of
Iberia, requesting that notice be
given in its columns, that the tea
cheers of st. Martin are invited to
attend State Teachers Institute,
that will be held in New Iberia,
December 9th to the 18th inclu-
sive.
The Institute will be conducted
by Prof. B. G.. Caldwell, assisted
by All able corps of the faculty of
the State Normal School.
The MESSENGER would suggest
that the School Board of st. Mar
tin parish take the necessary mea-
sures to have the teachers of our
schools attend this. institute which
is right at our doors. There is no
doubt but that the Institutes have
been of great benefit to the teach
ers throughout the state. Our
teachers, with the exception of
two or three have never attended
any institute; they should attend
this one.

AS the parish committee viii
meet tomorrow. We believe it
might be proper that the commit
tees look into the judiciary and
senatorial affairs. We would sug-
gest that the names of the candi-
dates for Judge, District Attorney
and Senator be put before the
people at primaries, why not do it
at the same time and make the
campaign as short as possible. We
see no necessity in troubling the
voters three times when it can be
done at the same time.
We learn with regret that ST.
Martin parish is losing today one
of its prominent and useful citi-
Gems, DR.. F. R. Martin, of Breaux

to practice his profession. DIR.
Martin has always taken a lead
ing and active part in everything
that would result to the benefit OF
his town, and the good of his fell
low-citizens. Crowley will profit
by the loss of Breaux Bridge, and
we trust that the Doctor will meet
with success at his new home.
Some people think it strange

sent there is only vast unculti
waited prairie, while our peopl'
failed to secure the building of
branch to Breaux Bridge and Ar
naudville, we'll settled and deve
loped communities. We see no
: thing strange in it, if our people
had showed and displayed tn
same spirit of enterprise and pro
gressiveness as displayed by thu
people of those favored sections
we would today have trains max
) ing daily trips to Arnaudville
} Those people have taken the trou
BILE of securing the right of wa
throughout the road and hav
shown the railroad people tn
possibilities of the country an
; the roads were built. Here som
, of our people would net sell t
, railroad a right of way for al
price, others would sell at thre
times the value of their land
Z others were afraid that the train
would kill their chickens, and a
I such nonsense. Can our poop
reasonably believe that the raj
road preferred building roads I
Unice and Gueydan than
. Breaux Bridge and Arnaudville
No, the only reason those peopl
secured railroad facilities was b,
cause they needed it, secured til
right of way and induced the raj
road to build. Secure your rigl
! of way and you will get the raj
road too.

two negro boys, brothers, aged respect
lively II and 16 years, approached the
wagon with gourd, the handle OF which
was open in the end, in which was some
diluted potash used for washing clothes,
and they presented this death dealing
drAught to the little fellows lips wi h

be done was done but to no avail, his
