TIE BOUNTY P4 yIlzENZ.S.
In the matter of the sugar bounty
the United States government is
certainly not pursuing course cal
culated to inspire the people with n
very high opinion of its sense Of
justice and fair play. From the be-
ginning the sugar planters Of Louis
lana have been treated in very
shabby manner. After months of
wrangling Congress decided to pay
what they were honestly entitled to.
Upon this promise they went brave
ly to work, anticipating no further
trouble in the collection of the
bounty, but recently Comptroller
Bowler, of the treasurey, seems to
have been suddenly seized with an
inordinate desire to discover some
constitutional points which will
again necessitate the postpone
ment of the bounty payments. The
planters have been granted an ex
tension Of time until Aug. 7 to ap-
pear before the comptroller and
present their side of the case.
With that end in view they have
employed the we'll known attorney,
Hon. Thos. ]. Semmes, who will
endeavor to show the constitutional
lily of the bounty payments. The
Louisiana representatives and sena-
tors in Congress have been re-
quested to be on hand as it is be-
lieved that their cooperation may
prevent conspiracy on the part of
government officials to postpone
the payments, as it is claimed that
the treasury department is unwilling
to pay out much money owing to
the bad condition of the finances.
Should the comptroller decide
against the planters an appeal will
doubtless be made to the SUI
preme Court, where the constitu-
tionality CT the law will sbe family
tested.

Scandaious Charges feefuted.

Great deal Of excitement was
caused in Houma and surroun ding
towns during the week over the arrest
Of Rev. Father Charles Richard of
Chacah oula, La, WHO was charged
with outrages committed on the II
year daughter of Mr.. c.. G. Aucoin
of that place. The Rev. Father
was arrested on Tuesday, but was
not Esbrought up and put safely in
JAIL" as was stated in Wednesdays
Picayune.
Lately it seems a hobby to SLAM
der priests, and some papers take
delight in condelnning man
with out hearing any defense.
Father Richard spent the night
in the courthouse, with Sheriff Con
nelly, but received kind and cour-
teous attention. A preliminary
trial was held on Wednesday before
Hon. L. P. Caillout, in which sew
eral witness were examined, and
the result was that the reverend
father was discharged and exone-
rated. Never before was such a
scene witnessed when the honora-
BILE jugde discharged the. wronged
priest. Pandemoniun reigned,
hats was thrown in the air, and
everybody i'll the court room came
forward and shook the hand of the
kind priest. 1t was proved beyond
a doubt that the charge was a SLAM
derous and false one, and totally
without foundation. The reverend
father is a jealous and pious priest,
and has done more for that commu-
nifty that any other priest. The en-
tire population Of Houma is rejoic-
ing over the vindication of Father
Richard, as we'll as his many friends
kere and elsewhere. M orning Star.

REYOL TING MURDER.


In our local columns is an ac-5
count Of the killing of a negro
named Divide Belizaire by a band
os masked men. The evidence
brought out at the examination held
by Coroner Gladu while placing the
guilt on no one, shows beyond the
shadow of a doubt that a cowardly,
premiditated and unprovoked mu, =
der has been committed by gang
Of desperate hoodlums bent on the
shedding of human blood. The
evidence shows that this negro was
shot down in his own house where
he had perfect right to be; that
he was peaceably at home with his
family when a number of armed
men forced their way into his hum
BILE cabin and killed him under the
very eyes of his wife and children,
who unfortunately were too fright
ened to recognize any of them.
After being shot and fatally
wounded with a bullet in his head
and one in his lungs, he jumped out
of his house through the window
and walked a few feet away where
he was found the next morning a
corpse with his shot gun near by.
1t appea.s from the testimony Of
the coroner's inquest that the party
of men were searching for the negro
Soulouque who seems to have given
offense to some people in that sec
ton, but we have failed to hear
any excuse advanced for the killing
of Belizaire. What this poor ne
gro had done to deserve such pun
ishment no one seems to know.
What crime was he guilty of that
he was shown SO little mercy?
None that we know of. He was
probably killed for trying to defend
himself in his own home. Every
thing connected with this horrible
midnight tragedy points to it as a
most barbarous and revolving crime.
In cases wherein negroes are gull
ty of great crimes the people are
justified in dealing out summary
justice to them, but when the ne
cessity exists these extreme meas
ures are carried out in the day light
and without masks. People who
cover their faces with masks to
avoid identification accomplish no
good. The simple fact of masking
themselves shows Enthusiastically
that they are afraid 20 face the
consequences of their acts-and no
well-meaning and honest man
should.
The Gazette hopes that the par
ties responsible for this murder will
be brought to justice and will re-
ceive condign punishnn ent.

SID UGHZER or RAZLROAD
"A EMPLOYEES.

Times-Democrat
The next Congress will have to
issue a warning to the railroads in
regard to the law requiring them to
use safety appliances. This law
was passed some time ago in re-
Spouse to the demands of both
Democratic and Republican parties,
and the railroads were required to
have train brakes and automatic
couplers within certain number Of
years. 1t was hoped that the rail
roads would proceed to carry out
tie law at once, but they have so
far refused, leaving the improve
ments to the last minute of the time
allowed them, when it will be diff
cult to put them in operation.
The report of the Intei state Com
merce Commission shows that IS
per cent of the total equipment of
the railroads is with out train brakes
and 70 per cent without automatic
couplers, both Of which are essen
tial to the safety of the employees,
and the bsence of which is respon-
sible for the large number of acct
dents occurring daily. The delay
Of the railroads to carry out the
law would indicate that they have
no intention to obey, and when the
time finally comes for its enforce
ment will find some way of lodging,
as they have done SO often before.
Congress would do we'll, therefore,
to make the punitive part OF the
law as strong as possible and stop
the f1ightful slaughter of the rail-
road employees which now goes on,
and which exceeds in year the
losses Of any of the worlds great
battles.

It is said on good authority that
Judge Davey, who was to lead the
anti-administration forces in the
Crescent City, has retired from &C
tive politics and will not oppose
Governor Foster. This announce
ment has been somewhat of sur
prise to the opponents Of the adj
ministration and will have ten
dency to considerably weaken their
ranks. Davey is a fighter of the
Fitzpatrick school and the with
drawal Of his support from the anti
Foster faction is not calculated to
cause much jubilation in the ranks
of the latter. 1t is stated hat
those known as the 'bo sses" will
pull together in the approaching'cam
paign and it is further stated that
they will give their unstinted sup
port to the present chief executive,
who will, in all likelihood, receive
the endorsement of a large majority
OF the New Orleans delegation.

COTTON MILLS AND THE FARMERS.

1t is believed by thoughtful and prac-
teal men that the establishment of cotton
manufactures in the midst of the cotton
fields is the best way to meet the present
low price of that staple, the idea being
that when we manufacture our staple
instead of exporting it to Europe we can
counteract the bad effects of low prices.
With cotton mills in their neighbor'
Iood. the farmers could sell much of their
cotton direct to the mills, and if sold in
the seed the factories would gin it with
improved machinery and save the
loss caused by poorly constructed
gins, insurance, and the loss of all that
which the ordinary gin leaves cliuging to
the seed hauling cotton home again;
hauling to town to sell; bagging and ties
COMPRISING; freight, amounting to s
per cent Of its value; storage;
sampling; weighing; commissions
and brokerage; drayage; stevedorinF
stealage; ocean freight and insurance.
After calling attention to these facts,
the New Orleans Times Democrat says:
It seems that after paying all these
numerous charges, which almost double
the cost of cotton from its original value
when standing in the fields, the New
ENGLAND manufacturer is able to convert
it into cloth at great profit and advant-
age to himself, although every tenn IN
Tbo ,,,onufaetu u * GREAT II there than.
here. The New Highlander has to pay
more for his coal, his m Il, HIS taxes and
his labor, and yet he can make money IN
the manufacture of cotton goods, and
that after the cotton has had some
twenty or more charges to pay.
1t is plain that when we have the mills
close to our fields the farmers Will save
great deal in the shape CT danger, de
lay and expense, and while they get more
money for their staple the mills will still
get it cheaper than they do now in New
England, and all the pa ties concerned
will make more money We are now
considering the matter mainly from the
standpoint of the farmers, and it must be
admitted that the showing is both en-
c)uraging and tempting.
Again THE News would urge that our
business men and farmers take hold of
the movement that has already been be-
gun to build factory in Dawson. Let
them all take small amount of stock
aud make the mill certainty,

At the Mercy of European Bankers.

From the Nashville American. "a
For the next seven months the United
States treasury, bound hand and foot,
has been turned over 10 the tender
mercies of syndicate of New York and
European bankers. No one will have
the temerity to claim that this deal is for
other reasons thin to make profit. And
in this they cannot be blamed 1t is
their business to lend money fer profit
and not for patriotism.
But the oil Gals of the United States
who, without reasonable cause, worked
this scheme to the great disadvantage
of the people, and to the selling out of
the power OF the treasury in conducting
the financial affairs of the government,
cannot be condemned too vigorously.
