NOTICE.
TO THE PATRONS OF THE GAZE

TO THE PATRONS OF THE GAZETTE:
The death of my brother,
Homer Mouton. the former edi-
tor of this paper, has enjoined
upon me a continuation of his
work so sadly ended. With
this issue I will assume the
publication of The Gazette.
While the field of endeavor
offered country weekly is
necessarily limited, I believe it
was the earnest wish during the
ten years that Homer Mouton
published this paper to promote
the welfare of the town and
parish of Lafayette by his edi
torial utterances. That end, it
shall be my humble effort to ad
vance.
The cause so near his heart.
that of the public education OF
the children, always evinced his
undivided cooperation. and The
Gazette will continue to lend its
assistance in every way to its
furtherance.
Though the political policy OF
The Gazette will be controlled
by my own political opinions,
still the democracy of Homer
Mouton was broad enough and
his faith in a government of the
people strong enough to justify
my promise that the political
course which he pursued will
remain unchanged.
In local political matters,
where principles are not VIC
lated, pledges are sacred, and
these will be kept. But I will
honestly endeavor not to be
blinded by partisan contentious.
I thank those who have Sc
generously given their support
to The Gazette, and I hope my
efforts will merit their approval
in the future.

Getting Down To The Point.
New Orleans Daily States.
Long before the question of
primaries or conventions was de-
finitely concluded the States de-
clared that our friends who
were honestly advocating that
method of making nominations
were playing into the hands of
the enemies of the Democratic
party. We pointed out the fact
that the Times-Democrat, for
instance, had never once said
Democratic primaries, but that
it confined it's expressions stu
diousIy to such terms as gen
eral primaries, direct prima-
ries" and such like terms, and
that if primaries were deter
mined upon the pain of such pa
pers would in no sense be eased.
We predicted that as soon as
this point should be gained
these same insincere advocates
of primaries would at once set
up a redoubled clamor over the
rules that it would be necessary
to adopt, and that the demand
would then be for wide open pri-
mares. That these predictions
were accurate one has but to
read the expressions in the
Times-Democrat during the past
few days. Democrat" Reg
ular Democrat" and various
assortment of nomenclature are
employed to impress upon the
unthinking reader the opinion
that the world is clamoring for
wide open primaries, and that it
would be mortal affront to the
people of the State to shut out
Republicans from participation
in Democratic primaries.
These are bolstered up from
day to day by editorials attack
ing the rules of the committee,
first upon one point and then
upon another, all intended for
the purpose of creating dissatis-
faction in the minds of the peo-
pie, and leading them to believe
that the committee has done
something unjust and autocratic.
This is but carrying out the
general plan which the States
fOresaw, and of which it fore
warned the Democracy of the
State long ago. The whole OBJ
iect of these xickers is to create
confusion, to stir up fractional

State. They have secured pri-
maries but having got them they
are more disSatis fed now than
before the question was settled.
AS a matter of fact there is little
room to doubt that some of the
primary howlers were paralyzed
by the action of the committee
in conceding primaries. Their
earnest hope was that the COM
mittee would order cOnven-
ton, in which event they be-
lieved they could have brought
about a revolt within the party
ranks.
The action of the committee in
ordering primaries shut off this
possibility, but it left open an
other avenue by which the mar
plots hope to achieve the same
result. Therefore, they are as
sailing the rules recommended.
twisting, distorting, misrepre-
senting everything in the vain
hope that they may awaken
enough dissatisfaction to cause
a serious rupture in Democratic
ranks. The States has not given
the substance of the rules sufti-
Gent consideration to justify the
assertion that from a DemOcra-
tic standpoint there is not room
for Improvement, but they are
probably fairly good, and we
know that they have been framed
with honest intent.
They were not framed in the
interest of Republicans, and it
is quite natural that all those in
clined that way who looked upon
the adoption of the primary
method as opening the door for
them to foist a weak candidate
upon the Democ ratio party and
then turn in and help defeat
him, should be dissatisfied. The
| primary election should, as a
confined to Democrats, and the
com mittee would be derelict in
it's duty, and unfaithful to the
/ party should it do otherwise.
1t is both wise and proper to
welcome heartily all accessions
to the party, provided such ac-
cessions are made in good faith.
But if there be any one who, in
the last Congressional or State
election in this State voted the
Republican ticket he should not
be permitted to vote in a Demo-
cratic primary now.
We can readily understand
that there are times when a
party may so far change it's poll
cies and attitude as to drive hon
est and earnest men temporarily
from it's support. But there
was absolutely no excuse for any
such conduct on the part of a
single man in Louisiana in either
the State election in 1900 or in
the Congressional election last
fall. If the candidates on the
two State tickets in 1900 had
simply been running as indivi-
duals, and not as the represent
tatives of any parties, those who
| were on the Democratic ticket
| would have been elected be-
cause they best represented the
interests of the people and were
the best men for the positions
| to which they aSpired. The
same thing is unquestionably
true with regard to the congress
sional tickets voted for last fall.
This being the case-and there
are few who will so far take
leave of their reputation for
good sense and veracity to deny
1.-THE voting against the Demo-
cratic ticket in either of these
elections was an act of hostility
to the Democratic party as un
necessary as it was wanton. 1t

cratic ticket in either of these
elections was an act of hostility
to the Democratic party as un-
necessary as it was wantOn. 1t
shows that such voters were so
set against the Democratic party
in these elections that they were
willing to vote for worse men
merely because that ticket was
in opposition to the Democratic
ticket. No better or fairer test
Of Democracy could possibly be
required than the vote in these
two elections, and the man who
voted against the Democracy in
those elections did so out of pure
wantonness and because he was
not a Democrat.
Therefore the kick that is be-
ing directed against this rule in
particular is animated by no re-
gard for Democratic prOpriety
or Democratic success. It is
simply part and parcel of a well
arranged programme to try and
discredit the Democratic Organi-
zation in order to create a
schism within the party ranks,
with the ultimate purpose of de-
feating it. This is the time when
loyal and true Democrats should
be on their guard and refuse to
be carried away by the devices
of the enemy.

One of the most horrible crimes
that ever came to light in this part
of the country, if the charges .bestrue,
has been unearthed and the perpetra-
tor arrested at the instigation of
Sheriff Macarthur, of this county.
Yesterday he went to Clinton, accom-
panied by Alma Moeller, and there
laid the case of the young woman be-
fore the county attorney and sheriff
with the result that warrant was
sworn out against William Moeller,
and he was arrested at o'clock yes
terday afternoon by Sheriff Joe Nor
an. of Clinton county, and is lying in
Jail in Clinton under $4,000 bonds
awaiting a preliminary hearing on
the charge of incest, to be held at 10
o'clock on the morning of March ,.
Although the case proper belongs in
Clinton county, it found its starting
in this city. Alma Moeller, hand
some young woman of % years, went
to Chief Martens Monday and told to
him terrible story of the treatment
which she had received for the past
eight years at the hands of her most
unnatural parent. The chief took her
to Sheriff Macarthur and County At
torney Il. W. Neal. Upon investiga-
ton the sheriff found that the family
lives just over the line from Aliens
Grove township, in Clinton county
and that the case was properly one
for the Clinton authorities. But the
girl was without means and helpless
Also she lived in constant fear of her
father if she ventured TO go to Gin
ton. So the sheriff yesterday took
her there with the above described
result.
