We doubt If there is single
newspaper in Louisiana but what
will join the Shreveport Progress in
its desire to see none but those who
are morally and politically honest
placed in Office. The great diff
Guilty, however, we imagine, is to
secure a consensus of opinion on
the question as to who is honest,
politically and otherwise. The
matter is necessarily left to indi-
vidual opinion and judgment, and
on this as on all other questions of
men and measures, there always
has been and ever will be, differ
ence Of otinion.-Catahoula News.
Exactly. For instance, our esti~
mable friend of the Progress thinks
Dominick G. O'Malley is good
sort of a fellow, while there are
some nice people in Louisiona who
entertain a very different opinion of
the Items proprietor. 1t is ques-
ton Of individual judgment. That's
all.

DEATH or ARCHBISHOP
ANSSEN.S.

The people of Lafayette, particu-
larly the Catholics, were shocked
last Sunday morning to hear that
Archbishop Janssens had died at
sea. on board the steamer Creole,
while on his way to Holland where
he was going to visit his native
town.
The beloved churchman had, by
reason of his splendid qualities, at
tanned a most enviable place in the
affections of the people of this
State. His uniformly kind manner
had won for him the love of all he
came in contact with, and the mag
nificent administrative ability in the
management of the affairs of his
diocese challenged the admiration
of everyone. The zeal that the de-
ceased churchman always displayed
in the performance of his important
duties as the head of the New Or
leans diocese, the manner in which
he adjusted the serious differences
which arose during his administra-
ton, the purity of his life, his pro-
found intellect, the fervor of his
religion, his untiring energy, his
broad mind and big heart made him
the ideal archbishop.

The friends of General Gordon
in all parts of the South will be in
terested to know that he is now en-
gagged upon a history of the war to
be written in style somewhat diff
ferent from anything that has yet
appeared on that most interesting
period of our national life The
general will travel somewhat out of
the beaten tracks and give the story
of the war as 1t was seen by @tthe
boys in the trenches" Instead of
dealing in statistics and in the dry
technical criticisms of campaign
strategy, he will give only SO much
of this as is necessary, but his chief
effort will be to depict the American
soldier in all his phases of camp
and field life, in this the most mo-
mentous struggle of all the ages.
The forthcoming book will be
looked forward to with much
pleasure by veterans of both the
great armies as we'll as by their pos
terity, and it may be said that in
many respects it will be the most
notable book issued from the press
in many years.-Baton Rouge Nd
vocate.

The meanest man yet, says the
Homer Clipper, is the animal who
takes his home paper for a year
without paying for it and then re-
fuses to take it out of the post
Office. There are some of these
men in this parish, but we are glad
to know that they are few.-St.
Landry Clarion.
And then the execrable meanness
of the abominable brute is further
more shown by contemptibly sneak
ing around the corner to read his
neighbor's paper.

The Roseland Herald makes these
sensible remarks "a newspaper
without enemies is scarcely deserv-
ing of friends. The vicious and
lawless never like bold, fearless
newspaper, and every self-resPect-
ing publisher should be proud of
their enmity. There are other
newspaper foes, however, who are
far more troublesome and conse-
quently more to be feared. First
and foremost is the man who owes
the newspaper an honest debt and
will not pay it. Then there is the
ambitious mortal who wants an Of
flee and complains because the
newspaper cannot consistently
champion his cause; he is pretty
likely to become an enemy. The
man who wants to shape the policy
of paper and is not allowed to do
so, is sure enemy. But the mean
est enemy is the man whom the
newspaper has befriended. and who
deliberately condemns the sheet az
ter securing from it all the assis-
lance he possibly can. The news
paper can, to some extent, respect
an open and avowed enemy, but an
migrate, under any circumstances,
in beneath contempt"

EXPORT BOUNTY FOR
FARMERS.

Iberia enterprise.
The efforts of majority of the
American people to tax themselves
into prosperity is resulting in a
multitude of schemes. One of the
latest was presented in the u. S.
Senate, on Thursday last during the
debate on the tariff, by Senator
Common, of Utah, one of the Re-
publican senator's who deserted his
party in the last presidential cleo
ton. He has become convert to
the views of Lubin, the advocate of
an export bounty on agricultural
products, and the speech which he
made in support of his amendment
to the tariff bill was one Of the
ablest that has been delivered in
the Senate for many years. In fact
Mr.. Cannon has suddenly come to
the front as the champion of the
farmers, and his defense of their
cause was a brilliant and cogent
effort. The amendment he offered
to pay a bounty on the expectation
of agricultural productions was de-
feated by vote of 50 to 10.
Two Democrats, Roach, of North
Dakota, and Tillman, of South
Carolina, voted for it, and Nc
Laurin, of South Carolina, would
have supported it had he been
present. The Populists voted for
the amendment, as did also two
other silver Republicans, Mantle
ane Pettigrew, besides Common.
Calculated upon the basis of the
exports for the calendar year 1896
it would cost the government an
nually over $4,000, 900 to pay the
proposed bounty, of which over
s23, 900 would go to cotton ex-
porters.
The result of all such legislation
is to tempt the strong and powerful
to intrench himself SO as to reap
largely of the benefits thus confer
red by tie government. The tariff
has built up a powerful manufactur-
ing class; the export bounty scheme
would for a time benefit the small
farmers, but would eventually have
the same effect that the tariff has
had-the gradual sitting of the
small and weak by consolidated
monopoly, that would turn the
American farmer into tenant and
industrial serf to far greater ex-
tent than he already is, and thus
would be fastened the work of
sapping the foundation of the
American Republic by the more
rapid increase of a large dependent
mass on the one hand and small
privileged class on the other. This
is an European condition which can
only be averted by return to more
natural conditions of trade and
legislation.

Washington, Sept. 10-Dr John Gui-
teras, the yellow fever expert, tele-
graphed TO Surgeon General Wyman as
follows from Ocean Springs, Miss:
"Of three suspicious cases reported to
me, one confirms yellow fever by au-
topsy another by subsequent course
and the third case is not yellow fever.
Today / have diagnosed another case

by DR.. Wyman to select a site. It's 10
cation has not been definitely determin-

consideration a place recommended by
DR.. Murray. Passed Assistant Surgeon

cinerated) and IA injured, two OF whom
win likely die, is the record Of the ter
rible head on collision on the Santa

that the list given is complete, as it

burned to death, and nothing left by
which they could be recognized. The

Nothing could be found Of the re-
mains of Wells-Fargo Express Mes

Human ghouls delved in the wreck
age and plundered tine mail sacks
which strewed the ground. One tried
to snatch a diamond from the breast
Of an Emporia doctor, who, weak and
nervous, was creeping slowly out OF
the debris. He had strength enough
left to hit the brute a blow in the face
which made him sneak away. Mai
sacks were dragged into the cornaeIt
and rihed.
The wreck was caused by the mis-
carriage of orders from the train dis
patcher. The conductor of the east
bound train was ordered at Emporia
to meet and pass the California flyer
at Lang, seven miles east. An order
sent to Lang to the conductor of the
westbound to wait there was not de-
livered, and he supposed he was to
pass at Emporia. Each train was hur-
rying-one to Emporia, the other to
Lang-and met at full speed on the
main line.

FEW KNOW ABOUT THE SHAKERS
AN INTERESTING, GoD-rEARING PEO-
PILE WHO HAVE GIVEN THE
WORLD MANY IMPORTANT
DISCOVER Is.

We may not accept their peculiar religious
beliefs nor can we enter into the spirit Of
their sacrifices. Il is not necessary to believe
as they do, but we can and do respect their
sincerity of purpose and the honor and up
rightuess which marks all their business
dealings.
The Shakers have always been successful
inventors, and some Of the greatest Of the
conveniences Of the present day found origin
in their settlements
In one particular they excel all other men
or classes Of men, and that is in cultivation
ef medicinal herbs and plauts and their
preparation for use, They have made it a
study for more than one hundred years. It
is one of their peculiar industries. Their
lives have been devoted to it,
Their latest and greatest achievement is
the Shaker Digestive Cordial. II is not Of
fered as a cure for all diseases. It does not
pretend to be, but one disease it will cure,
and that is Indigestion
Sufferers who resort to its use have not
long to wait to see the result. The effect is
almost immediate. The first dose usually
gives relief and if continued permanent
cure will follow.
1t not only contains already digested food,
but it digests food as we'll, thus toning up
the general system. An interesting pamphlet
is now being issued by the Shakers and can
be had for the asking at almost any drug
store.
Try a twenty-five cent bottle Of Digestive
Cordial and see what it will do for you.

THE SOUTHERN SCOURGE
It Is Not So Violent as First Re-
ports Indicated.
FEW GASES OF YELLOW FEVER.

New Orleans, However, Has Adopted
Vigorous Measures TO Prevent Inn
portntions From the Coast Towns.
DR.. Guiteras' Report.
New Orleans, Sept. 1O.-There is no
change In the fever situation. Two or
three suspicious cases were reported
yesterday to the board of health, a ma
terial falling off from Wednesday,
when there were 81. These were in
vestigated. with the usual result
DR.. Oliphant and his corps now re-
alize that they have but one battle
that of preventing any more importa-
tions from the coast towns, Biloxi and
Ocean Springs. DR.. Guiteras and the
other government experts have de-
clared that yellow fever existed at
Ocean Springs and Biloxi. While the
decision of DR.. Guiteras has set at rest
all doubt here that yellow fever exists
at Ocean Springs the people there find
some consolation in the fact that pc
culiar conditions surround the death
of Sheray Seymour, who was officially
declared yesterday to have succumbed
to yellow fever. He was in bad health
before he was stricken, and unneces-
sarily exposed himself
In DR.. Guiteras' opinion the prevail
ing fever is not yellow fever, but there
are isolated cases of that dread dis
ease. Last evening DR.. Guiteras pro-
nounced the case of Ernst Beanges,
now sick, as yellow fever.
Late last evening the three cases
heretofore reported as existing at
Biloxi were confirmed as yellow fever
by Drs. Murray and Cant, after care
full investigation. They are thoroughly
isolated
The sensational report given out that
there were seven additional cases yes
terday in Biloxi is pronounced to be
without foundation. A late dispatch
brings the information that a lad by
the name of Theo. Sanchez, in Biloxi
shows a decided case of yellow fever.
No communication is allowed with the
inmates of the house.
DR., Salamanson and DR.. Kelley yes
terday examined nine cases of fever
at Moss Point. They declared that
there is no case Of yellow fever in that
town, nor even a suspicious case.
Dr. Seeley, who has been nursing pa
tients at Ocean Springs, has been
stricken with yellow fever at his home
at Perkinton, Miss. The case has been
officially confirmed, and DR.. H. S. Gull
ley Of Meridian, state health officer,
has gone to PerlSinton to take charge
Of the town and establish quarantine.
