THE NEW ORLEANS RIOTS.

One cannot read of the disgrace
full occurrences IN New Orleans
last week without a feeling OF
horror that such things should be
possible in one of the largest cities
OF the South, and one, in point of
refinement and intelligence, second
to none in America.
To moralize over such outbursts
of human passion is mere waste
of time, to attempt an explana-
ton probably useless.
Every land under the sun, re-
CARELESS of the degree of its boast
ed civilization, has been the scene
of such disorders, the society of
every age. barbarian or Christian,
has furnished of its membership
the men to make them possible.
To say that the mere killing of
two men by another could cause a
reign of riot and bloodshed such
as existed in New Orleans for
more than thlrty-six hours, would
be to state a palpable absurdity.
Nor could the manner of the
killing have occasioned it.
If we care to look into the real
cause of the trouble, for whatever
Of good we may extract from the
knowledge,-we have merely to
the color of the desperate !
with that of his victims.

| p0OU, UJO. Of
Put in dirt for levee purposes 1878, 59S' 8;
1t will be noted that the amount
of highwater expense exceeded,
by over S47,O00.00, the cost OF
rights-of-way, for the same period
This is another source OF heavy
expense and enormous waste OF
hard earned money. No one who
recalls the utter lack of s. stem
obtaining in the handling of tie
| forces on the levee during the
| fight of 1897, will be surprised to
learn that that struggle alone,
useless as it proved to be, cost the
considerable sum of 1886, 117.O2.
II will surprise many, however, to
know that the year following cost
over 800, 900.
The history of all such fights
| is practically the same, it matters
not how far back you 90, but the
application to such occasions of
the same business care which
would be given by the officers and
members of the Board if every
cent of this money were coming
out of their own pockets will rem
edy such evils in the future, as it
would have in the past.
We note an item of expense in
the Treasurer's semi-annual re-
port which should, and we presume
will, be abolished hereafter.
This is under the head of cotton
tax collectors expense, which, in
this instance amounted to T1212. 50,
shown to have been disbursed be-
tween January and July of the
current year, as follows
W. w. Catchings, two months
services .................... 10000
B. B. Warren, weighing cotton,
one month. .............. 5000

This thing of paying at the rate
of about $4,000 month for F'as-
sistants," for an official who
makes from 81, 10000 to IS, 10000
per annum out of the cotton tax
alone, is pretty steep.
The salary of the assistant en-
gineer was raised from $4,000 to
$4,000 per month.
The reports arc full Of informa-
ton for the taxpayer and will re-
pay careful perusal.

Greene, president of the Connect
cut Mutual Life, an "old line com
pany: "One of the strangest
developments in life insurance in
the last twenty-five years has
been the increase in its expense
account. While that of every
other enterprise and industry has
been studiously watched and
pruned at every possible point,
the expense. account in life in
surance has gone the other way.
One great company has, in the
last fifteen years, about doubled
its expense ratio and halved its
returns of surplus to its members.

for magnitude 50 far"

such system would result in
lessening the number of suspen-
sions. We are not overdrawing
the picture when we say that the
constant "dunning" by the sub
ordinate Lodge officer irritates the
member. On more than one oc-
casion we have had members tell
us, they had paid about twice as
much for their protection within a
given period, as they really had,
and when we went to the trouble
of proving to them their error
their answer was, We'll, it seems
to me that Bio has dunned
me for more than thirty assess
ments;" and this is a tone that
plainly told how they felt about it.
We suggest that our uext Grand
Lodge take up this subject and
see if proper legislation along
this line cannot be put into posi-
tive law. This subject of sus-
pension challenges our best
thought, for in an Order like ours
paying only current costs-the
loss thus occasioned is rarely a
benefit such as it is to the old line
