Mr. Arthur Channan, writing from Durham

for old and young, pen you the following: A
neighbor of mine had child just over two

Blanchard,s Bond Scheme Defeated.

At least one gratifying result is to
be noted in connection with the cleo
ton held in Louisiana last Tuesday
the scheme fathered by Gov. Blanch-
ard to raise q million dollars for
| building shoolhouses and rounding
out his political career seems to have
been defeated by decisive majority.
According to the returns received and
compiled by the New Orleans daily
papers up to yesterday IL, $50 votes
we're cast in favor of the school bond
amendment, and 1902 against it. Sew
eral parishes are yet to hear from, but
it is not believed that complete returns
will materially change the relative
size OF the affirmative and negative
votes.
1t may be safely assumed, therefore,
that the governors bond scheme has
been rejected by about 5000 majority.
What the fate Of the other fourteen
proposed constitutional amendments
has been will probably not be def
nitely determined until the official cam
yass and promulgatio of the returns
has been made. Little interest was
taken in any but the school bond pro-
iect, and it is probable that all the
other amendments have been adopted.
Ascension contri buted three votes TO
the majority against the milliondollar
proposition, Notwithstanding a yigor-
Gus effort on the part OF the governor
representatives in the parish to line
up their clans in support of the scheme.
Three isn't very imposing majority,
it must be admitted, but it's heap
better than no majority at all, par
ticular1y when it shows up on the right
side of the tabulation, as in the present
instance.

SANG DANISH SONG
AND PAID 4 FINE
"HOIE NORD" is UNSAFE FOR
SCHLESWIG MUSICIANS.
for Participating in the Singing of
What Was Described by the Court
as an "Incendiary" Song.

The singing of Danish songs is a
crime in SchIeswig, having been so
declared by a high court in Berlin,
which sustained the action of the
Schleswig courts in filming Editor Jes-
sen 80 marks for participating in the
singing of Hole Nord." This song
was defined by the judge in the court
of the first instance as incendiary.
8. Under the law Of July IL, 1866, the
singing of Danish national songs of an
inflammatory character was prohib-
tied. The wise judge held that the
song, tho probably in itself not in
tended by the author to have any
political significance, nevertheless
could be construed as an appeal to
contest Germanism. lessen insisted
that this old law was repealed by the
Prussian administration, which guar
anteed citizens of Schleswig free
thought, and moreover he maintained
that the song itself was not incendiary,
which anyone knowing the song would
agree to. lessen was overruled by the
court, likewise by the superior court,
and finally by the court Of last resort
in Berlin.
1t is an amusing comedy that has
