From the Washington Post.
 MT. Clayton of Alabama says: "The ac- ton of New York, in view of the wide spread interest, especially in the south ern states. to my mind. certainly assures the nomination at St. Louis of Judge Parker.

What Tammany Wants.

The first thing that Tammany wants is an assurance from Judge Parker that in case he gets to the White House he will not permit Hill and McCarren to control federal patronage in Greater New York against Tammany This Is of prime importance. It explains Tammany's atti- tude up to this time Virtually the or ganization Is fighting for it's very life This shrewd Irishman. Patrick Henry Me- Carren, who has, temporarily at least. wrested control of Brooklyn from Mur- phy, is an ambitious citizen. And he is an apostate. Tammany is determined to destroy him. McCarren joined hands with MT. Hill, and without McCarren, Hill could not have won last nights victory.
 If Hill and McCarren can get clean sweep of federal patronage they may induce Ted Sullivan to go with them. Ted controls most of the districts in Manhattan south of Fourteenth street, and Hill, McCarren and the Sullivans to- gether might dethrone Tammany as the sovereign political organization of the metropolis.
 This is the key to Tammanys other wise inexplicable attitude. It will be for Parker. providing 1t can get a pledge from the Judge that he will not let Hill and McCarren destroy them in ti\eir own strongholds

A riebald Republican writing
in Albert Shaw's Review of Re-
views and trying to find some
thing to say complimentary to
Roosevelt, throws this at the
Democrats of the South: "They
prefer dead political delusions to
live political principles. If the
Apostle Paul were to return to
earth and sit at the same table
with Booker Washington. a thou
sand communities in the South
would burn his Epistle in the
market-place and the Southern
newspapers would be bedlam let
loose" The Southern Demo-
Gratis have not reckoned on the
Apostle Paul returning to dine
with Booker, but they have felt
that this nation is entitled to a
decent, self-respecting man IN the
executive chair. And it would
have had but for the unfortunate
Buffalo tragedy.

It is now incumbent on every
friend of education in the state
to conduct a campaign of educa-
ton, to see that this constitu-
tlonal amendment is carried at
the November election. The
people must be made fully aware
of the provisions of the measure,
and its purposes, and when that
IS done there need be no doubt
as to how they will vote. But
nothing should be taken for
granted. The campaign should
be started at once, and there Is
no better way than to ask the
teachers now meeting at the in
stitutes in the various parishes 10
rally the parents of the school
children, and to explain to them
what the bill means. State Su-
perintendent Aswell will have the
cooperation of every friend OF
public education.

During the course of his re-
marks as temporary chairman of
the National Republican conven-
ton Mr.. Root pointed out that
the country has more money in
circulation. which makes times
better, and. to prove his state
ment, he said that on March 1,
1897, we had $23.14 per capita
and on May 1, 1904, we had
$31.O2 per capita. Somebody
ought to inform Mr.. Root that if
we could stir up another war
somewhere in the tropics and
send several thousand soldiers
down there to die on "emballned
beef our per capita circulation
could be increased~some more.

MUzzLING THE PRESS.

The New Orleans Picayune has
stood for nearly three-quarters OF
q century a staIwsrt defender OF
the peoples rights. and espe-
ciaify for an honest and decent
administration of public affair;
in that great city. When the
recent Mount Pelee burst forth
in the police board in that city,
causing a great stencil to 60 up in
somuch that man in the moon
nearly had to hold his nose as he
passed over it, The Picayune,
exercising the right of free
speech, guaranteed by the con-
stitution. published certain pro-
ceedings of this board. together
with certain statements and dis
closures made by one of the mem
bers~of said board, and made some
comment thereon that was prof.
ably not complimentary to the
board as whole. The result is
that three suits for alleged SLAM
der and defamation of character
amounting in the aggregate to
100000 have been filed in the
civil district court against the
Picayune by members of the
aforesaid police board.
Mark our words for it, there
will be quick and speedy vindi-
cation of the Pieayune, provided
that the compliments should ever
call up their cases for hearing,
which is extremely doubtful. and
the filing of them will be about
all the public will ever hear of
them. But should they be called
for trial they will certainly meet
the same fate as did. the recent
cases against Editor Daniels, of
the Raleigh(N. C.)News, and of
Editor Jakely, of the Ann Arbor
(Mich. Times, the courts holding.
that the comments made were
privileged under the evidence.
1t will be a sad day for Louis
lana, indeed, when the press has
been SO muzzled by the courts
and juries that it will not be per-
mitted to proclaim from the
watch-tower official corruption
or the derelictions of public
officials. But we have not de-
scendcd to such depths yet, nor
do we expect to within the near
future.-St. Helena Echo.

every citizen had the protection
guaranteed him in life, liberty
and the pursuit of happiness. II
there were any "designing poll.
ticians'' present they were placed
under arrest and made to furnish
bond to keep the peace.
But seriously, with fairness
towards all and no intention OF
harming anyone. we can not but
believe the Demands has been
preyed upon with a hard-luck
story and in an unguarded mo-
ment cast an insult in the faces
Of the people of Winn parish.
If the Demands will dig up and
read the issues of The Sentinel
during August, 1902, it will see
that we had something to say in
regard to the trouble and we did
not take up for the negro in pref
erence to the white man. and we
can not let pass uncllallenged the
statement or implication that
there is a white man in the parish
who will take up for negroes in
preference to white men.
If the Demands would try to
keep down trouble in its own bail
iwick it would not have time to
tread on other peoples toes.
