The human heart naturally re-
spends, as rule, to the misfortunes
and sufferings of others, but occas-
ionallv a case occurs where the svm
pathetic lines are reduced to hair
breadths. And this just now applies
to those Louisiana sugar planters
who, in their eagerness to DESTROY
Northern industry and maintain their
so called white mans government in
the South, voted the Democratic
ticket and thereby lost their sugar
bounty. These planters, under the
Mckinley law, were making money
and latterly have undergone heavy
expense in putting in new and i'm.
proved machinery, and Just when
they were reaching for the top round
of the ladder of prosperity along
comes their free trade whirlwind and
sweeps ladder, sugar and prosperity
from under them. The old saving
that "eSpenence keeps dear school
but fools will learn in no other is
doubtless true, and if the people OF
Louisiana are not born fools they
have received schooling that will
give the state to the Republicans in
'96.
