The Meridional. (Abbeville, La.) 1856-1906, 1898-09-10

Here's q hero who is worthy to
rank right along with the best Of
them. Leo Bridgewater is with a
Missouri regiment at Chickamauga.
His mother died recently, leaving
three small children in destitute cir
cumstanees. Bridgewater was in the
army and could not be discharged, 50
he took up q collection and bought d
tub and soap and irons and started a
laundry. His comrades heard of the
reason and patronized him, 50 that
he has been enabled to send home
money to feed and elothe the chill
dren.-Pieayune.
The Meridional. (Abbeville, La.) 1856-1906, 1898-09-10
FINE CROPS.

The most encouraging reports come
in from all parts Of the parish about
the rice crops. Ii no storms super
yene between now and harvest time
abundant fields and the providence
crops, it is claimed, will yield an Az
erage half crop everywhere. 1t will
be the best general crop that has been
made for three years and will put our
farmers OF their feet again. The
business promises to be brisk with
the merchants within the next thirty
days. The harvesting of early rice
has already begun and from nov on
farm work will be brisk.-Signal.
The Meridional. (Abbeville, La.) 1856-1906, 1898-09-10

The Monroe News says: About
ten Or fifteen years ago a white mar
named Ferguson was waylaid and
killed on the public road between
Farmerville and Shiloh. No trace
could be found Of the murderers.
The grand jury got a clue last week
and investigated the ease and indict-
ed four negroes for the murder. Al
ter being arrested they confessed the
crime, and it i likely they will be
found guilty and hung for the crime.
The Meridional. (Abbeville, La.) 1856-1906, 1898-09-10
ABOUT A HIGH LICENSE.

Under the new constitution the po-
lice jury and city council are empow-
cred to fix the liquor license at what
ever amount they may see fit. We
understand that the police jury will,
at its next meeting, consider the
question of a high license.
If the license is to be raised it
should be placed at figures high
enough to accomplish the end desired
lessen the liquor evil and increase
the revenues from that source.
There is in this parish a number Of
small grogshops which cause a great
deal of trouble. If a high license
will close these it will have done much
to be thankful for.
The criminal history of all parishes
shows that a large percentage of the
crimes of a violent character owe their
origin to strong drink sold in many
instances at barrooms in isolated To-
calities, where there is little or no
police protection. 1t is generally in
these places that men imbibe too free
" of alcoholic beverages and break
the criminal laws.
1t is generally conceded that pro-
hibition, even in Kansas, does not
prohibit. Therefore, to reduce the
quantity of liquor consumed is the
wisest, as it is the only practical, so
luton of this vexing question. The
most incorporating opponent OF
prohibition or high license will agree
that the world would be better if
there was no whiskey distilled, but as
whiskey will continue to be made and
as it will always be impossible to stop
the evil altogether, leu as 90 Our pese
to curtail its opportunities for doing
mischief.
A high license will tend to eoncen-
trate the liquor trade in the towns
where the police is better and men do
not enjoy the unrestrained freedom
that they do in the rural districts.
From a financial standpoint the
change will be beneficial. The pub
lie revenues from that source will I'M
doubtedly be increased, and it is Ger
tain that the criminal expenses will be
reduced.-Lafayette Gazette.

Coffee is to be cheaper, says Les
lies Weekly. This is to be one Of
the results Of the war. Nearly half
of the worlds coffee crop comes to
the United States. We consume al
most twelve pounds per annum for
every n Of our population, and
spend on an average nearly 500, 000,-
900 a year for coffee. Two-thirds
of the worlds supply of coffee comes
from Brazil, which places an export
duty of IL per cent. upon the fra
grant berry. The finest coffee in the
world is grown in Porto Rico, Cuba,
and the Philippines, and under the
stimulation of American enterprise
these countries will, within a few
years. be able to supply the world
with coffee. What this means to the
coffee consumer he can clearly I'M
aerstand.
