The attempt of General JAS
krovnSk; RI intrO6nco in tho con-

The attempt of General Jas
tremski to introduce in the con-
test for the governOrship of the
State as an issue campaign of
the country parishes against the
ward leaders of the parish of
Orleans is certainly to be depre-
Gated. That those leaders, or
bosses if you please, have given
their support to Judge Blan-
chard, is, of course, irrefutable.
But such action simply proves
their political acumen. 1t was
evident to them, as it is to every
one, that Judge Blanchard's
candidacy was the most popular
in the State, and it is not to be
wondered that they fastened to
climb into the band wagon.
Judge Blanchard's emphatic
denial to the doughty Generals
insinuations Of a flicker" should
satisfy all reasonable men who
are willing to give their fellow
man even a modicum Of honesty.
Judge Blanchard advocacy Of
the primary system and his ac-
tual participation in primaries
ten years before the launching
forth Of General Jastremski's
letter last May, his public de-
claration a few months ago in
favor of it, and with greater
force, his earnest and success
full fight before the State Cen
trail Com mittee in the beginning
of the present month for the
adoption of the general primary
in the State, should convince the
most doubtful that he does not
desire, nor has he ever desired,
to ride in Office through the ma
chinations of any set of bosses.
The Gazette has the greatest
respect and admiration for Gen
eral Jastremski, his heroic
record as a soldier of the Con
federacy and his amiable char
acter, deserve of the people of
the State worthy consideration,
but in this instance, we are
afraid his Over-zealOus nature
has permitted him to engage in
little harmless political by
play.

More Consideration Due.
Lafayette Advertiser.

Lafayette Advertiser.
A number of papers over the
State are criticising very severely
the rules laid down for the State
primary by the subcommittee
of fifteen, and some charge that
if the rules be followed as pro-
m ulgated that the ends and pur-
poses of the primary will be de-
feated, and that we might as
we'll have been satisfied with a
convention. So far as we know,
the N. 0. States is the only pa
per which has had a good word
for the committee. 1t seems to
US that the committee is not re-
ceiving the proper consideration
due to their efforts. 1t is true
that the rules are Objectionable,
and it would be strange were
they not, for State primary is
a new thing, and it is hardly
possible that any committee
could frame perfect rules. AS
we understand it, the State Cen
trial Com mittee delegated to this
sub.com mittee the task of fran
ing these rules, the same to be
reported back to them at their
meeting in October for correc'
ton and revision. We give the
sub. com IN ittee the credit of hon,
estly endeavOring to do the work
assigned in a satisfactory man
ner. And inasmuch as the
whole committee promptly and
unanimously granted the popu.
lar demand for the primaries,
we see no reason to suspect the
sincerity of their motives, and
we believe that when the rules
come before that body that they
will to the best of their ability
adopt as fair and effective rules
as possible.

The Good of Dull Times
The Saturday Evening Post.

A shrinkage in stocks is not
so exhilarating as bubbling
boom, but it has advantages of
it's own. For some years we
have been fed on tales of sudden
|ly-aquired wealth, and of the
mad extravagances of it's posses
sors. We have heard how Jones
has cleaned up fifty million dol
lars by combining ten factories
worth a million apiece into a
hundred million dollar trust, and
how Mrs. Jones buys her dia-
monds by the quart without ask
ing the price. We have had
countless essays upon the best
methods of achieving success in
life-success meaning the acqui
sitiOn of at least a million dollars.
The whole standard Of living has
been adjusting itself to an in
come of fifty thousand year, or
upward. There may have been
people with less than that, but
they have been ashamed to con-
fess their poverty, and the pur-
veyors of current literature have
contemptuously ignored them.
At home, everybody has had a
butler and a cOachman; when he
dimes in public it is a Sherry's
or at the Waldorf, and when he
travels it is on his steam yacht
or his private car. The commu-
nifty has been trying to live up to
this standard of Opulence, and
finding it a considerable strain.
The strain is beginning to re-
lax now. When five thousand
million dollars of paper values
evapOrate from stocks in year,
even multi millionaires notice
the difference. Some gigantic
fortunes have been wiped out;
others have been cut in two, and
nearly all have been hard hit.
The pace at Newport slackens.
Mrs. Midas begins to ask the
price of her gowns before she
orders them. The papers find
other things to talk about than
the growth of new money-kings
overnight. The price of dukes
in the international marriage
market declines.
The people who have been
desperately clinging to the
ragged edge of fashion have to
give up the struggle and be
themselves.
All this helps to stave off the
threatened dissolution of Amer
lean democracy. 1t gives us a
breathing space in which we
may compute how much is left
Of our old principles and what
the chances are of preserving
the remainder. It may not bring
US back to the old ideals of plain
living and high thinzing," for a
nation that has once tasted
luxury does not go back easily to
simplicity: but it may at least
help US to recover the conception
of a man as a human being. If
we stop to think we may be sur
prised to realize how completely
we have lost sight of this idea.
When our grandfathers heard
one of the great names of their
day-Clay, or Webster, or Chan
ming, or Davy Crockett-they
thought at once of being of
flesh and blood, with individual
characteristics and a share in
the ordinary activities of life.
But the contemporary great
names of Newport and Fifth
Avenue suggest nothing but a
pile of dollars. The little human
personality attached to the over
shadowing millions is as incon-
spicuous and unnOticed as linn
pet on reef. A pause in the ac-
cumulation of wealth may give
little better show to the man be-
hind the coin.
