Democracy and a leader of DEM

Democracy and a leader of DEM
ocrats in Louisiana.
Once for all, we want it under
stood that we have no sympathy
with these discredited Democrats
when they advise the people to go
into Il combination outside of the
party. The evils complained of
can and will be corrected inside
of the Democrat.s organization
of the State. Singh the negro has
been eliminated frem politics the
Democratic party sas not had the
chance to correct those evils. The
people, il we understand them,
will turn with disapproval from u
campaign of personalities, embit-
tered by the ri ralries and ambi-
tlon of warning politicians. Let
us have peace in Louisiana poll
tics now that the negro is no
longer a disturbing and irritating
element.

COmmendable Ambition.

A hot fight has been going on
for several weeks between Jean
erette, New Iberia. st. Martin
vile, Breaux Bridge and Lafa-
yette for the Industrial School,
and each locality has been ami
mated with the most commend
able interest in the matter from
the start, and the interest wakes
warmer every day The last issue
of the Jeanerette Herald says
that Lafayette leads with Jeaner-
cite close second in the race for
the Industrial School. If Lafa-
yette succeeds IN passing the tax
to raise $50, goo she will get the
school. If the tax is defeated, as
there is Il possibility, then the
coveted prize falls into the WOO
ing lap of Jeanerette.
In the meantime, st. Martin is
not idle, and is making a vigorous
push for the coveted prize.

because they are bosses. In COM

for more independence, honor
and manhood in political affairs,

"The politician generally fix up
things regardless of the wishes of
the people and then expect every

action. Nor is this all; when
there is chance to do something

Here is how the W. B. r. Sugar
Planter sums up the Philippine
situations:
Gen. Otis, c0mmander-in-chief
Of the American forces in the
Philippines, is still doing busi-
ness at the old stand, sending daiiv
cables from Manila to Washing
ton, asserting that he has 1.-The
situation well in hand;' that "the
rebellion is on its last legs that
he does mot require reinforce
ments,' and much more tommy
rot to the same effect. From
Feb. 1.-THE date Of the outbreak
Of the Filipinos against American
authority-up to this time, Gen.
Otis cables to the War Depart
ment have never varied Il shade
in their absolute optimism, but
Notwithstanding this fact the Fill
pinos are putting up u stiff fight
and the end Of the war is by no
means in sight. In fact, it is
clearly apparent now that Mr..
Mckinley bit of a pretty large
mouthful when he undertook to
purchase and "benevolsntly as
simulate" the half-savages of the
Philippine archipelago. SO far,
therefore, as Gen. Otis daily out
bursts of optimism are concerned,
one Of three things seems reason
ably certain: (1.) He is a sim
pleton, Or (2.) monumental liar,
or (3.) (Which is more probable)
the War Department is suppress
ing some Of his cables and distort-
ing others, in order to conceal
from the public the real state of
affairs in the Philippines. But
whether this latter suppesition is
correct or not, the impression is
becoming very general that he
should be relieved Of his COM
mand and recalled, in order that
his position may be given to a
solder who will fight more and
talk less. OTIS seems to be too
much of Il jaw-warrior to cope
with the situation.
