Marksville, La, Feb. 21.-The
police jury of this parish met here
yesterday and by unanimous vote
ordered an election to take the sense
Of the parish on the prohibition Of
the sale of spirituous liquors, the
election to be held on the Sd OF
April. The general impression is
that the election will result in favor
of prohibition.
The Rev. Clarence Strouse,
through the gospel meetings which
he has been holding in different
parts of this parish within the last
six weeks, has contributed largely
to the prohibition wave which is
now sweeping the entire parish.

CREEDS AND DEEDS.
ay W. r. DUNBAR.

The creed of Christ upon their lips,
The crime of Cain upon their brows;
They murmur low their pious VOWS
The while they man their armored ships I
And sail, as did their heather sires,
To treasure lands that lie afar,
To kindle flaming brands of war
And rear their dripping funeral pyres.
Ensanguined hands they clasp in. prayer
o meek and lowly Nazarene,
With gaping wounds, hast thou not seen
The quivering flesh the vultures tear'
For pity plead before the Throne
Thy cross has not been all in vain,
For some of those among the slain
Have kissed it, and become Thine own.

and in n kindly manner. Such
suggestions I'D criticisms will al
ways be kirNy received by the
earnest, conscientious teacher, while
to the careless, Indifferent, or in
competent teacher reproof, criticism
and Nsgestion, alike, are more
than useless.
And this brings me, in the next
place, to- pay my respects to this
class of teachers, the bane of eXiS-
tence to every superintendent; for
where is the superintendent who
has not at some time, had such
teachers to deal WITH do not
believe in total depravity, but there
seems to be some teachers who are
to give advice concerning the man
agement of the school; and the
board should no more feel to
disregard his advice than they
would feel free to disregard the
advice of an attorney to whom
they have referred their legal
acts. The superintendent ought to
be regarded as authority upon edu-
cational subjects in the community
in which he lives, and he ought to
influence very largely public senti-
ment in regard to the schools; and
he can if he be the right kind of
man. AS | understand it, one of
the principal duties of a superin-
tendent is to establish firmly in the
minds and feelings of the com
munity pride in the schools, and
a loyalty to them. Unless he sue
ceed in doing this the influence of
the school will never be great. The
newspaper is one of the greatest fac
tors in forming the sentiment Of a
community, and every superintend
ent should see to it that the press
of his town is heartily enlisted in
the cause Of education. If public
sentiment and the press are found
in hearty sympathy with the
schools, then they are indeed resting
upon a firm foundation. That com
munity in which public opinion is
in hearty accord with the school,
will always have good system of
education. Again | repeat that
the superintendent has, in very
large degree, the power to mould
public sentiment as he chooses. The
wise and far-seeing superintendent
will not be slow in availing himself
of these and Of all other agencies
will further the interests of the
school.
In conclusion, permit me to say |
that l have not presented to you
the impossible superintendent, nor
have l outlined impossible work.
Every live, progressive, enthusias-
tic superintendent can be, and ought
to be, all that l have suggested,
and more. We must have our ideal,
if we ever accomplish anything
worthy of remembrance. Let us
then as superintendents, one and
all, set our mark high, and do our
best to reach it, fully realising the
Importance and responsibility of
our position, and remembering that
the working of the whole machin-
cry Of the school devolves largely
upon the superintendent, and that
its success depends upon his skill
full management.-SMpt. Curry IN
N. @. Journal of Education.

the party of Jefferson and Jackson
who, with Lincoln, are the idols OF
the people, because they spent thei'
lives in resisting the encrOachment
of property upon the rights of man
They had allied themselves with
freedom and did not fear the SCOTS
or cruelty of the peoples enemies.
This great party has set itself
against the great monopoly, the
greatest of all, the money trust,
and has attacked it fearlessly and
almost successfully. We cannot
succeed without accepting the will
o1dhe people, and if the people
have determined that the money
monopoly shall be the first object
of attack, we shall do poor service
to our cause if we insist at the
critical moment that some other
form Of monopoly be substituted
for that which the people have Sc
lected to oppose.
"First and foremost it is impera-
tive that those who mean what we
mean, no matter whether they think
exactly as we think, shall obtain
the reins Of power. We are gathered
here as volunteers, but there is an
organization, the mightiest in the
world, which we can, by judicious
action, bring to our support. That
organization is the government of
the United States. It combines the
wisdom and intellect of the country
as does no other organization, not
even that of monopoly. Get the
servants of the government devoted
to our cause, and success must come.
Give us a President who means to
do our work, who will gather the
wisest Of the land to head the vari-
ous executive departments, who can
ascertain facts, mould policies and
execute plans. In all the depart
ments Of justice give us as prosecu-
tors men who mean to enforce the
law. Give us judges appointed,
not from the ranks of monopoly,
but devoted to the service of the
people. Give us Legislature which
means to do our work and will make
laws to be enforced. Give us all
these, and the people will rise up
again in hopeful expectation. The
forces of monopoly will be reduced
to a pitiable minority, and we shall
enter upon chapter Of reform and
reorganization which all the powers
of wealth cannot shake, and which
will stand at the judgment seat Of
the republics God erect and una
shamed.
1.-THE war of emancipation has
begun in earnest, and all the talent
is not on one side. The evils are
all faced by schools which under
stand them. The land monopoly
has against it the powerful and
brainy single taxer; the monopoly
of transportation is creating a vast
contingent Of voters who demand
public ownership; the Socialists
are attacking the private industrial
system, and great political party
has already demanded that money,
the measure of all property, shall
be controlled only by the people.
We are not standing still, though
we be heavily burdened for the
march. Let us collect these forces
unite them in purpose,
and then study for united action.
Already our people are aroused to
the dangers which menace our re-
public. We know that capital con-
trolls the battalions, but even they
cannot prevail against the mighty
forces Of public opinion. To this
opinion, and to the Providence
which watches over our republic,
we appeal, and we shall not fail."
