ALL FLESH CORRUPT.

When Adam was created God
said: "Let US make man in our
own image, after our own like.
ness" Genesis 1875. Adam lived
an hundred and thirty years and
beget a son in his own likeness,
after his own image. He trans
mitted his sinful nature to his
posterity. This nature is in the
scriptures significantly termed
"the fesh.'' Genesis 6.2. God
looked upon the earth, and behold
it was corrupt, for all flesh had
corrupted his way upon the earth,
SO that what the law could not do,
in that it was weak through the
flesh, God sending his Son in the
likeness Of sinful flesh, and for sin
condemned, or punished, sin in
flesh that the righteousness of the
law might be fulfilled in US who
walk not after the flesh, but after
the spirit. The old man is corrupt
according TO deceitful lusts; dead in.
sins. Therefore, Jesus said: "Ye
born again" John 3-3
is incontrovertible. X

ANTITRUST LAW.

Representative Little6eld, of
Maine, whose advent into the
House of Representatives vice,
Thomas b. Reed resigned, mark
ed an epoch in the history of new
men in Congress, in as much as
he bounded to the first rank of
statesmen at the first effort and at
once, has the honor of introducing

THRUST bill, which, if there is
power in this government to pro-
tect the citizens from rspacious
and organized selfish greed, must
abate the power and destroy the
evils of unlicensed organized pre-
datory capital.
The bill amends the Sherman
antitrust law SO as to declare
every contract or commission in
the form of trust or conspiracy in
restraint of commerce among
States or with foreign nations ille-
gal, and every party to such con-
tract or commission guilty of a
crime punishable by fine of not
less than $500 nor more than
$4,000, and by imprisonment for
not less than six months nor more
than two years. 1t provides that
any person injured by violation
of the provisions of the law may
recover threefold damages. The
definition of person" and "per-
sons" in the present law is enlar-
ged so as to include the agents,
officers or attorneys of corpora

it declared illegal all corporations

A NEW OCTOPUS.
LAFAYETTE Gazette.

Every young legislator who
wants to carve bis name on the
highest pinnacle of fame general
ly starts out upon an ambitious
career with a ferccious determine
ton to lay his pious hands upon
the throat of some hideous acto-
pus and strangle it to death. The
only trouble that our youthful
law-giver may encounter in bis
struggle for fame is a paucity OF
octopi. If he is fortunate enough
to find the right kind of monster
his future is assured.
Here is where the genius of the
budding statesman is brought into
play. There was, for instance, the
lottery octopus upon whose back
several bright Louisianians have
ridden to dazzling eminence. Rob-
Der tariffs. railroad corporations,
land syudicates, oil aud coal trusts
and other iniquitous combines
have afforded golden opportunities
to ambitious youths to inscribe
their coguomens ID Che annals of
imperishsble fame.
We repeat that the only danger
to the hopes and aspirations of the
octopus-hunter lies in his. inabili-
ty to locate the monster. When
that is done all he has to do is to
exterminate it and the plaudits of
posterity are his.
The decision of the Tangipshoa
gentleman to introduce q bill to
cut down the emoluments of the
country editor must have been the
result of much serious thought
along this line of reasoning. The
country editor Is one Of the few
remaining octopi which threaten
the liberties of the people and Re-
preventative Wilson has made up
his mind that he too must join the
army of dead octopi. No doubt
Mr.. Wilson has reached this con-
clusion after looking over the long
list Of country editors who have
grown fat and sleek at the public
crib. We have always believed it
a poor policy for country editors
to exhibit their plethoric bank &C
counts and to spend the summers
with their families at fashionable
resorts. All this display of wealth
was we'll calculated to arouse the
dormant suspicious of the reform
er. Mr.. Wilson is one of those
who believe in checking the sg-
gressions of wealth and the large
number of millionaires among the
country editors has caused him to
turn his attention to a rapidly
growing and therefore unknown
evil.
Mr.. Wilson, The Gazette salutes
you! You are a statesman!
