Broussard and will give him all the

good deeds we will rejoice and over
his mistakes will lament.-People's

1t is not strange that the people
of the present day do not have the
respect for the decision of the
highest courts of the land which
they formerly had. Our State Gu
preme Courts frequently decide the
most important cases by majority
of one; and the Supreme Court of
the United States has twice, in the
recent past, decided cases of the
gravest interest and of the most far
reaching public importance by a
majority of only one; and in one in
stance-the income tax case--the
court sustained itself by one of the
judges changing his mind. Such
occurrences are not calculated to
increase the respect of the public
for our courts; and in the face of
such decisions it certainly cannot
be held that our highest courts are
above criticism.-Homer Guardian,

The vote of Congressman Brous-
sard, Davey and Meyer, in favor of
the Dingley infamy, has been the
cause of much unfavorable COM
ment by the Democratic press of
the State. And it is no wonder.
The Dingley bill is an infamous
measure, a robber tariff to enrich
the rich and grind down the poor;
law apparently drafted in the
special interests of trusts and mon
opolies. 1t is indeed astonishing
that such Democrats as Senator
McEnery and Congressman Brous-
sard should aid in saddling upon
the people such an undemocratic
measure. - St. Landry Clarion,

High Water in Louisiana.

To The Lafayette Gazette:
The direful calamity that has threatened
the planters and those living along the
shores of the Mississippi river, seems to be
drawing to a terrible CRISIS. The high
water of that great river has destroyed, and
is on the verge of destroying, vast acres of
cultivated land, the manstay of the pros
perity in our State.
For many years the Mississippi river has
been a means of apprehension to our people,
and the government has tried to allay these
fears by putting up levees, that only serve
to increase and hasten the terrible catastro>
ply that they striving to avoid
I am no engineer, nor am in search for
a polen1ic, but the present disaster that
threatens our State, causes all thinking men
to look deeper into the subject than mere
newspaper perusals; the great peril that is at
the very walls of New Orleans, the metroP
oils of our State, must hasten our actions, if
any steps are to be taken, and free our
minds from any prejudice. L, who place
myself among those whose interest lie only
in saving, from utter ruin, the most prosper
Gus and beautiful part of louisiana, do ven
ture an opinion upon that most important
question that holds the public mind to-day:
'Can the overAows of the Mississippi be
checked by an all-levee system? IL
High levees are not a means of checking
the Mississippi from Overlooking its banks.
We see, by the force of reason and cineum-
stances, the higher you raise the banks of
a river, the higher you raise its bed. To
prove this, we will only have to take into
consideration the friction of the river
against its banks, causing deposit upon its
bottom.
What has these levees done to prevent
the water from breaking through or running
over them? If we but count the number of
times the levees have been raised, at once
we know the number of times the river has
broken through or overran its banks.
High levees only serve to keep the sur
plus water within the river, and this it ac-
cumulates until it overfows its banks or
otherwise seeks its natural relief in making
outlets or crevases. which cause utter ruin
to the places where such calamity happens.
Now, why not avoid this Inconvenience by
digging artificial outlets7

axiom that we should bear we'll in mind
Nature in her great benevolence has pro-
vided means of counteracting the evils
wrought by her own hand. The frozen
earth in winter is made to bear fruit until
the sun in his bene1cence shines forth and
prepares the ground to be titled again, the
sun in turn pours his mighty rays upon our
fields, and the flowers of the earth seem to
shrink and wither away, when the heavens
open its fountains and the repeated rain
falls upon these sickly flowers and strength
ems and invigorates them again, while they
lift up their dropping heads, looking up to
