An excursion of the Louisiana

has not been definitely decided by
executive committee. All members
who expect to join the excursion are
requested to so notify me at once,
stating whether or not they will be
accompanied by any one. 1t is
necessary that | should have knowl-
edge of the number who will.
make the trip to be able to perfect
the arrangements for transporta-
ton and other details. Full inform
alton of the trip will be issued
through circular letters in ample
time.
Louisiana editors and publishers,
not members of the association, but

Gen. GOrdOn's View OF 1t.
ncs-DemOcrat.

Tlmcs-DemOcrat.
"Ihe best way to avoid loss 0
fever as we'll as from bullets is t,
crush the Spaniards at a blow ant
bring our army back home"
That is what the veteran leader
Gen. Gordon, said to the agent o
the Associated Press.
The enthusiasm which has beer
evoked by our suggestion that Cor
don should be appointed Il Major
General and placed in command OF
the Southern troops, the prompt
ness with which it has been in
dorsed by the important organs OF
public opinion both North and
South, without reference to party,
and, above all, the universal feel
ing that we need at the present
time a man of action to lead lis to
Cuba, have demonstrated the gen
eral popular conviction that the
nettle danger needs to be seized
boldly in order to prevent its sting.
That Gen. Garl~ pre-eminently
a man of action is kn0sA to every
body and thft every dr6fAaf blood
in the veterans heart is spuEllge o.
the action in this4our is shown 10y
the interview We refer.
Gen. Gordon shows that the best
way to save blood is to deliver a
powerful bloy at Havana imme-
diately, and not wait till the next
winter, give the Spaniards time to
fortify it deliberately, and then go
about reducing those defenses in
the %leisurely fashion which would
prolong the war two or three years.
Gen. Gordon is a typical soldier.
a typical Southron, and "a typical
American patriot. AS he feels, SO
feel hundreds Of thousands whose
words are not sought as eagerly as
his. AS he thinks and speaks, so
think and speak hundreds of thous-
ands whose ready guns would con
clude the campaign before the plan
of it had been drafted. AS he will
act if called to action, so will act
hundred of thousands who will fol
low him to the battle tomorrow i'll
allowed to do so. The resurgent
South is to-day in spirit in the fore
front of the fight.
Let our readers ponder the
weighty words of their veteran
chief and greatest living hero.
They will not have to frame apollo
gies for him. Their only desire
will be to go with HIM to Havana.
enthusiasm, like his, is yet
young, Notwithstanding the lapse
OF years since their release from the
active duties Of the field. The spir-
it Of the soldier never grows old.

Where Our Future Lies.

on the business men and property

cause her people deserve nothing
better on account of their inactivity
and backwardness is grasping the
golden opportunities at their very
doors. Is it that we expect people
OF q different section to invest their
money here when our own capitalist
and business men remain idle and
Indifferent? Then, we will ever
remain as we are now the Sleepy
Hollow of Louisiana.
The responsibility for the future
OF Il town is upon the shoulders
of the men here, who have the CAPT,

now they only invest to a limited
extent in such enterprises and do
nothing to induce nonresident cap

A Public Injury.

There is a lovely stream whose
source lies just beyond the North
western boundary of st. Landry
and meandering through q large
part of the parish finds an outlet
near Washington at its junction
with Bayou BGuf. This is the
Cocodrie once famous as Il trout
stream and upon whose banks have
been landed by many hands, from
the amateur to the genuine pisca-
torial artist more and varied kinds
of those fine clear water fish for
which it was once noted than any
other half dozen streams in the
parish. But alas the days of its
beauty has passed and it no longer
contributes it's tinny beauties to APP
pease mans appetite, or vary the
bill OF fare on many a country table.
Once bright and sparkling with a
current OF four miles an hour, it is
to-day a dark, sluggish, dirty
stream from whose waters tho fish
have gone and whose poisoned wa
ters are spreading malignant fevers
I'm years agone, %unknown,) among
the families OF those whose pleas
ant homes are situated upon it's
banks, and who for years have used
the waters of Cocodrie for drinking
and culinary purposes. Besides it
is fast. filling up, and unless the
cause is removed, will in the not
remote future make this stream one
that will overflow the fine farms
along it's banks. Now, the cause
OF all this sickness, this exodus of
fish and last but not least this loss
of beauty and bringing prospective
is due solely to the pro-
dumping of saw dust up
on its margin and into it's channel
by the saw mills along it's course.
Now, in the interest of health, fish
and the protection from ultimate
overflow will not the Honorable
Parish Legislature put forth it's
hand and stay this destruction,
abate this nuisance? Will they
lot do q large part of the people ,

Article 229 of the New Consti-

to relieve from parish licenses

The New Constitution.
From the Daily NJ onitor.

'S A'H''J -A
We propose from time to time
to give 4 brief comment upon the
changes incorporated into oul
Constitution by the recent con
ventlon, beginning with the Pream-
bic and Bill of Rights.
The Preamble is substantially
the same as that of the constitu-
ton of 1879, both recognizing the
guidance of Almighty God in Sc
curing to us the blessings of lib
erty, civil and political.
The Constitution of 1879 guar
anteed the right of trial by jury in
all criminal prosecutions and that
prosecutions shall be by indict-
ment or information.
The New Constitution provides
that cases in which the penalty is
not necessarily Imprisonment at
hard labor, or death, shall be
tried BY. the Court without a jury,
or by a jury of less than Twelve.
1t aiss provides that the Legisla-
turc I1ay permit mEdcmeanors to
de prosecuted on affidavits; thus
dispensing with Il Grand Jury
finding and a bill of Indictment.
All misdemeanors hereafter are
to be tried by the court without a
jury, and at any time, the District
Courts being required to be in
session ten months in each year.
The provision dispensing with
the Grand and Petit juries in such
cases will result, not only in a
great saving of expense, but will
undoubtedly promote the enforc-
ment of the criminal law and the
suppression Of crime.
The Legislature is required to
make a new appoltionment accord
ing to population based upon the
census of 1900. The maximum
number of representatives under
the Constitution of 1879 is SO,
under the new Constitution the
maximum number is 116. The
maximum number of Senators
under the Constitution of 1879
was 36, under the new one it is Al.
Under the Constitution of 1879
the Senatorial District composed
of St. Landry and Acadia was
the 18th District, under the pres
ent one it is the 18th. District.
The apportionment made by
the New Constitution remains in
force until 1902, when a new
apportlonment will be made.
