Be Careful.

The following from the B. R.
Truth might serve y a pointer
for St. Landry politicians:
When the boys get to f:.EF::,,ee>-up
compromises they should remenf2a
ber that two parties are necessary
in such transactions. To say that
cur side will take such and such
offices and give you the remain
der, but must name your men for
you, is Il proposition that won't
work. If there should be COM
promise of any kind each side
should be permitted to select to
suit themselves, and even then
the masses may repudiate the en-
tire arrangement. Remember that
the people will no longer submit
to two or three individuals saying
who shall run for office. Since
the negro has been gotten rid of,
bosses are at j discount.

to others to the same question.
Gen. Carlos Garcia, son of the
late Gen. Calixte 'Garcia, is in
W ashington, as a representative
of the Cuban Republican League,
which advocates the complete pc
litical independence of Cuba. He
asked Mr.. Mckinley for authori-
ty to hold elections for municipal
offices, throughout Cuba, in order
to demonstrate the ability of the
Cubans to govern themselves.
Mr.. Mckinley did not give him a
decided answer, but it had been
previously said by officials that
no elections would be held in
Cuba until a census of those en-
titled to vote had been taken.

the civil war. They were So
much afraid that the war would
end before they got into a fight
that they denounced their lead

however, they all got in and were
more than satisfied, and if we do
not misinterpret political signs

The truth of this saying is con

''1n the days of that splendie
and cruel despotism which histo
~ calls the Roman Empire the
Roman constitution made the leg.

perator, who, like our president
was nominally a mere executive
with advisory duties as to legis,
lation. This was the theory-al-
most exactly the same as ours in
its essentials. But in fact, in the
Roman practice, the Imperator
was supreme and the Roman Sen
ate merely registered his will. It
did not act in any important mat

Sometimes Senators were re-
luctant. ; They stood out for
bribes or for principle. Then the
lmperator won over as many as
possible by patronage, prestige or
favor until they weakened. When
only a weak minority remained it
was overridden amid shouts of
'All who oppose are traitors. enc
mics of the Roman people.
While On this ancient subject
which, it says with fine irony, has
no possible bearing upon the af-
fairs of this great and free Re-
public under the constitutional
direction of William [ of Canton,
the World adds:
s'The Roman people did not
lose their liberty in pitched bat
ties with foreign foe. They lost
it in the very hour Of their great
est glory and dominion. They
lost it not by the audci-
ties, but by the cunningly dis
guised wiles Of the Caesars. Lib
erty was not wrenched away. It
was stolen. stealthily, under and
by means of forms. of laws that
were written by the lovers of lib
