If the newspapers had always op-
posed all trusts with the zeal and
ability which they are displaying in
their opposition to the paper trust
the fight which Is being made to- day
would be much easier. The trouble
with the American press is that it
recognized the iniquities Of the
trusts only when it directly affected
its own interests. For years the
newspapers have, with notable ex-
captions, failed to protest against
the robberies of the trusts. It is
only when the owners of newspapers
themselves were compelled to pay
tribute to these industrial mon
sters that a general complaint was
heard. The paper trust is neither
worse nor better than the other
trusts and it owes its existence to
the same cause. And unless the
papers fight the whole brood their
efforts will and ought to be futile.
To say that the paper trust is more
harmful thar. all others because it
imposes tax on intelligence is a
puerile subterfuge. All the trusts
are equally bad. Some do more in
jury because they are more power
full. The editors who are raising q
mighty howl about the ubiquitous
paper trust and shut their eyes to
the robberies of other combination!
of capital which owe their origin te
the same cause are squealing be
cause they are hurt and not because
they are opposed to an infamou
system which EFFORTS tribute from
the many to enrich the few.

Judge Gus A. Breaux, Messrs. ]. A.
Chargois, r. J. Domingeaux, l.. c. Sicily
and John Vigneaux, of Lafayette, met a
like committee from this parish Saturday
afternoon, to put up a judicial ticket. Judge
Gus A. Breaux was named for district Judge
aud Mr.. J. A. Chargois for district attorney.
The foregoing item was taken
from the Crowley Mirror. The
gentlemen opposing the Democratic
ticket are very fond of talking about
what they term s'bossism. They
take great delight in prating of
their love for the ''dear people,
and often boast that they are not
afraid of taking the voters into their
confidence. But they quietly HE
themselves to Crowley and nominate
for judicial officers two gentlemen
who formed a part of the nomina-
ting body. This would not ordi
narily be worthy of special notice,
but coming from gentlemen who
profess such implicit confidence in
the people, it might be we'll to men
ton it en- PEASANT.

The Montgomery Advertiser says
Congressman Simms, Of Tennessee
struck a centre shot in recent
speech in the House when he com
pared the application for pensions
filed by eight Northern and eight
Southern regiments engaged in the
Spanish war. The figures show
that up to date 761 of the Southern
men have fled applications, while
Z, s88 have been filed by members
of the Northern regiments. OF the
latter number 3175 applications are
made on the plea that the apPli-
cants are invalids. For some rea-
son the comparative statement, has
not found currency in the Northern
papers, but the striking difference
exhibited by the figures is explained
by the advertiser on the ground
that the Northern troops have been
living in a section "where the peo'
pie have been educated to look on
every man who has ever worn the
uniform of a soldier as a fit subject
for a pension.-Daily States

AOYSES LEYEE At THE
PARISH PRISON..

Sensible people everywhere won
der Why three hundred ladies of
New Orleans found it incumbent
upon them to visit the wretch
Moyse, in his cell in the parish
prison. Moyse is a vulgar criminal
who through deception. ruined
young girl by impersonating naval
officer and inducing his innocent
victim to marry him. Movse is
guilty of as diabolical crime as
was ever committed by the devil In
human form and the ladies' who
crowded into his cell to see him
displayed a morbid taste which
does them no credit. One would
be inclined to think that the cui-
tn, ed members of the gentler sex
would shun the presence of such a
fiend as thew would that of mad
man bent upon their ruin. But in
stead of stunning this lecher"us
devil we are told by the New Or
leans papers that hundreds of ladies
held a sort Of levee at the parish
prison and passed in review of the
vile creature who was the cynosure

Our esteemed contemporary, the
Boston Herald, one of the ablest
advocates of sound money in the
country, is authority for the state
ment that Matthew Marshall. in
common with good many other
authorities on finance, calculates
that the imitation of the currency
under the proposed currency bill is
going to lead to great rise in
prices in all kinds of property, as
we'll as to wild speculation. The
banks, under the proposed law, will
take out of circulation all that they
car, and they will lend us as much OF
it as they can. Borrowers, tempted
by the facilities thus pressed upon
them, will begin to buy stocks, mer-
chandise and real estate, and at first
will sell them again at profit.

new purchasers, and prices will go
on rising higher and higher until
