Suppose we could increase the cur
rency of the country 10 per cent. a
year, and soppose, by doing that. we
should diminish the confidence and
consequently the credit only 10 per
cent Most likely we should diminish
it 20 per cent, or more.)
sTen per cent. of 81, 900 worth of bus
mess done on a cash basis is 500. That
is the amount you have increased. Ten
per cent of the $1,000 which is done
in credit is 81 900. You have gained
800 in substantial money, if you please,
and YOU have lost $1,000 in credit, and
practically we are just that much
worse off.

per cent. of our money, if by that
means we could regain confidence, than
we could afford to gain ten per cent. of
our money and lost five per cent of

Not for you? Why. they refer to you

JAPANESE REVERE RULERS.

object to Having Stamps Bearing Like
nesses OF Departed Ones Cancelled.
Private letters from Kioto bear proof
that the japanese have their own way
of doing things. They recently had a
new issue of postage stamps which bore
portraits of two OF the princes who died
in the recent war. Stamps of two and
of five sen were to be issued In the
United States one portrait would have
been on the two-sCn stamp and one on
the hve-sen stamp, but in Japan it was
thought that this would be discrim-
mating against tho memory of the one
pictured on the lower denomination.
This is why philatelists find that
there are two new two-sen and two new
Hve-sen stamps - each denomination
having one kind in memory of each
prince. But even this careful arrange
ment did not prevent new trouble
Some conservative japanese are con-
tending that ii borders on disrespect to
the imperial family TO poIlute their
pictures with saliva and then to blotch
them with ink in the process of cancella-
ton.
One man has declared in the papers
that he shall decline to receive any mail
matter bearing these stamps. Some
poStmasters have requested that they
be allowed to put the canceling mark
only on the edge Of the stamp, so as to
avoid defiling the princely faces. TO
old-fashiored japanese it is especially
displeasing to see foreigners putting
portraits representing men of divine
descent into their mouths and putting
them on the envelopes with as much
Indifference as we employ with the
faces CT Washington, Franklin and
Grant on our stamps. Some japanese,
If they use the stamps at all, must
reverently lift them to their head, care
fully wet the glue with pure water
and then utter prayer as they attach
them TO the envelope.
Did it ever occur to On American that
it was discrimination to place a por-
tSait on a lower denomination stamp?
If this matter ever was discussed it was
probably agreed that the greater hon

are in wider and more general use. AS

Gov. McEnery to the Front Again.

Viewing from his high position upon
the bench the dangers that threaten the
peace OF the country through the rein
PRODUCTION OF the negro into the politics
ot this State, Judge Samuel D. Mem
cry has appeared upon the rostrum,
making ringing address to the citi-
Zens OF Lafourche last week. From his
speech we make the following extract,
which we commend to the attention of
the reasonable men who are allowing
themselves to be swerved from the
path OF duty by political traitors, who
in the past have been lonOred by the
Democratic party and whose influence
to-day is derived from favors conferred
upon them by that party. Said Judge
McEnery
The Republicans say that there is no
danger from negro rule under Pharr, il
he is elected. Are you willing to take
this declaration and make the expert
ment? The danger will continue 80
long as we have men who will des-
cend to the level of the negro for his
vote, and pander TO his vices and to his
prejudices. The danger can only be ar
rested when the negro, as IL race, is no
longer q political factor. Let the ne
gro once get Pharr or any other man in
keep him in power. The white man
and the negro politician will become a
necessity to each other. and the former,
to retain his hold, will go down and
down and worship at the Fetish altar,
and will be as devout as any of his dar-
ky supporters. What
canse have the sugar planters for dis
satisfaction in State affairs The State
and Gov. Fosters administration were
in no way responsible for the removal
OF the bounty, and the failure to pro-
tect sugar bv tariff legislation. The
SELECTION of Pharr can by no means
haEe the effect of restoring the bounty
or # protecting sugar by tariff legisla
tionla 1t there were any chances of the
restoration of the bounty Pharr's cleo
ton would destroy them, and il in the
future an opportunity should present
itself for protection or a tariff measure
the election of Pharr in my opinion,
would not make the opportunity avail
able. Whyg Because he would stand
alone, without the moral suppart of the
white people of the State, and the few
Populists who support hipa gould op-
pose any effort of his in this direction.

Not Correctly Stated.

Both factions desire 10 cnnlrol the

permit the other 10 do So They are
both for white supremacy bv the aid of

This is grave mistake. The Demo
crats VINO are supporting Foster, and

Whlte people of the parish, are engaged
III an earnest effort to eliminate the ne
gro from politlcs--which elimination
would result in largely reduced vote
tor Pharr and against the sntffage
northumberland are, therefore for
white supremacy without the aid
OF negro votes. The other side
or faction" consisting of Radicals,
Popullsts and few renegade Dem
ocrats, III order to get the local
Offices, are stralnlng every nerve to
vote the negroes, whose votes will be
cast for Pharr and against the suffrage
amendment; and this surely cannot be
called an effort ''to establish white su-
premacy by the aid of negro votes.'
Like the Picaynne, the COURIER is in
favor OF the suffrage amendment. 1t
favored the adoption of the Australian
ballot law submitted by the Ballot Re-
form League to the Legislature two
years ago, and it thinks now, as it
thought then, that the defeat of that
measure was Il fearful mistake A more
horrible mistake still was made when
the suffrage amendment was submitted
to the people at an election when the
State and parish officers Were to be chos-
en-. The effects of that mistake are visible
in almost every parish in the State, par
ticnlarly in Southwestern Louisiana.
In st. Landry the COURIER stood al
most alone in its advocacy of the
amendment. Both sides opposed it
one through fear of the illiterate white
vote, the other, oh, horrors ! in order to
pandef to the ignorant and degraded
mass whose participation in politics has
brought such frightful woes upon our
yeloved State. We could not remain
Neutral. We naturally stood by the
Democratic party and the white man.
We think the Picayune would have
done the same thing; and the hope we
here express that that great paper will
give it's powerful assistance to the Dem
ocrats OF ST. Landry is not an unnatural
one.
