The Herald is in receipt of the follow
ing inquiry: What is the difference
in the free silver that the Democrats ask
for in their platform and the free silver
that we had prior to 1892"
There is no difference. At the time of
the adoption of the mintagc act of 1878,
the act which failed to make provision
for the coinage of the standard silver
dollar, anybody could take silver bullion
to a United States mint and have it
coined into standard silver dollars, Oh
the basis OF the ratio of 16 ounces o.
silver to l ounce of gold, without charge
for coming. The Democratic platform
demands the re-enactment Of those coin
are conditions.

years" said the former governor, Il
have been an advocate of free silver,
and I believe that, no matter who is
elected this year, the time will soon
come when the country will be obliged
to adopt a silver basis. If 4 free silver
law should be passed there would be
much more money in the country, and
even If the prices of commodities did go

Swords Has q Cinch.

Things are getting quite funny IN
St. Landry. At the instance Of the
Thompson faction, it is said, Regis
trar Swords and number of other
good citizens were indicted by the
Grand Jury for having failed to ex-
tend the proper courtesies to negro
voters who wanted to register.
The indicted parties, excepting
Registrar Swords applied for bail
and were released. Swords refused
to apply for bail and said he would
remain in Jail. It's here where the
hitcn came. The registration office
was advertised to be opened at
Opelousas and Belleview two of the
strongest negro polls in the parish
and the Thompson people are very
much interested in having the ne
groes to register. AS nearly all the
white people had registered Swords
thought by remaining in Jail he
would shut out the coons. 1t then
dawned upon the Thompson people
that they would have to get Swords
out of Jail. They offered to furnish
the necessary bail, but the registrar
insisted upon remaining a prisoner.
An order was issued by Judge Per-
rault to Sheriff Fontenot to release
viz FAaSoA~A a. oh>O, OuI mat dlSO
failed to bring about the desired re-
suits and Swords is still master Of
the situation. Judge Perrault has
wired to Gov. Foster about the mat
ter, but the governor mas very prop
erly refused to act in the absence Of
the facts of this very strange case.
The friends Of Swords are doing
their best to keep him in Jail, and
his enemies are kicking like steers
because they can't get him out. All
this trouble in our neighboring parish
would have been avoided if the
Thompson faction had submitted to
white primaries.
Swords had better apply for
patent on this new scheme to sup
press the negro vote. 1t certainly
has the merit Of originality and we
hope it will prove effectual. We
dare say that st. Landry is the only
place on earth that can produce a
registrar who would have been
equal to this emergency, but great
is ST. Landry! Greater is Marion

Another Refinery.

The people Of Lafayette should
try to get another refinery. Last
year, through the efforts Of that in
defatigable gentleman, Col. Gus.
Breaux, aided by the B. NJ. A., the
necessary capital was secured and a
refinery was built within short
distance of this town. Despite
the fact that the plant was complet-
ed late in the season this town and
vicinity have been greatly benefited
by it. Enough cane is produced
around Lafayette to feed at least
two more refineries and we believe
that this fact can be established
to the satisfaction of investors.
We understand that the people Of
Lafayette have their hands full with
water works and electric light and it
might not be wise for them to un-
dertake to do too many things at
one time, but we think that as soon
as practicable they should take
steps toward the erection of another
refinery here.
