would be valuable case in point
Mr.. Landrum has 100 acres in cot
ton from which he will realize a
bale and a half of cotton to the

per acre but the recent rains have
so materially benefited cotton that
a bale and half will be realized.
THE HERALD has contended all

the best in the United States for
cotton raising, and we have posi-
lively nothing TO take back on that

good, but to lay hold of the promises
Of God and enjoy the freedom and
strength to be found only in Him. His
message was given with conviction and
power.

ZOO SHOW MAKES HIT.

The performance in the Zoo theatre,
Saturday evening, was in every way a
huge success. Mr. Fernandez opened
the bill with couple of pretty songs,
and the Japs jiu-Jitsued for further
orders, and Ben Jones sang himself
into favor. The hula girls danced, the
pianist pleased with his selections, and
the Chinese sketch was veritable win
ner. The two comedians did excellent
work, and kept the audience in roars
of laughter. They pleased and salts
fed to the limit, and the whole show
was good to see. That Chinese skit
was perfectly true to life and hilarious
ly fine, and a good cure for blues. The
Zoo is getting very popular with its
vaudeville, and large crowd witness
ed last nights performance.

FUNERAL CANDLE
CAUSES 4 FIRE

An alarm OF fire was turned ir

ternoon, and the Fire Department ha6
a run to Queen and Punchbowl streets

out before the engines got there. II
was small blaze in japanese bar.

caused by an overturned candle.
1t seems that the owner of the shor
died on Saturday and was buried YES
terday afternoon. A burning candle
was left in the back room of the shop
and the funeral procession had hardly
been gone hour when the cry of
fire was raised. The japanese immedi.
ately gathered their things together and
fed, while some neighbors ran in and
without much difficulty put out the
fire, which had only burned a few
clothes.
The Fire Department, however, did
some wonderfully quick work in getting
to the locality, being on the ground
inside of five minutes after the first
alarm was turned in.

ACHI DEMURs.

To the bill for specific performance
of Kapena Richard against William c.
Achi. the defendant has entered a de-
murrer. He maintains that the aver
ment of the bill is stale, that there is
a non-joinder of necessary parties and
that the complainant has an adequate
remedy at law. The complaint was to
the effect that Achi had received full
payment for lots in Kapiolani tract,
but failed to- release mortgage thereon
as covenanted, in consequence of which
foreclosure was threatened against the
complainant on his purchase.

WHAT KILLS A CIVILIZATION.

The civilization that have died
were not killed by private ownership
of the soil
No; thousand times, no!
The civilizations with whose wrecks
the shores OF time are strewn owed
their destruction to misgOvernment
Vicious men made vicious laws, and
vicious rulers enforced them. Excess
sive taxation imposed burdens which
crushed the victims. Privileged or
ders exploited non privileged masses.
The aristocratiC few lived riotiOusly
at the expense of the democratic
many. The money of the nation was
concentrated in the hands of the dom
inant class The many had to pay
ungodly prices for the use of this
money. Usury is a vulture which
has gorged itself upon the vitals of
nations since the dawn of time.
''Great estates were the ruin of
Italy, says the historian; but what
CItdtel the great estate btilDft IL lew
could buy up all land there must have
been some great cause at work, some
which the few held at the
expense of the many " hat was that
advantage?
Dig down to that and you will
then have the true cause of the ruin
Of Italy.
Consult the books. ond you will
find that the ruling class at'Rome had
in their own hands all
the tremendous powers of the State
They controlled the money, and the
noble Brutus was one of the patroits
who loaned out his capital at 4S per
cent INTEREST,"
Give to any ruling class the power
to levy and spend the taxes, give that
class the legal right tn enrich itself |
at the expense of the others, give that
class the power TO dictate the price at |
which the MASSES shall have the use

LET DOWN THE BARS.
AND OBSERVER-OONROLID4

The Yellow Fever reported from
East End of our City by the City
Health Officer DR.. j. WoRord San.
ders, is of such q mild type as to
cause no ground for alarm or fear.
OF the sixteen cases reported all are
convalescent and none Of them were
confined to their beds more than six
days. The one death was due to
other complications. Our physicians
declare there is no cause for alarm to
our citizens in the country, that they
can visit this City without any dan
ger of infection. Under these Or
cumstances we would advise our read
ers in the other Wards to call upon the
Police Jury and request 1t to instruct
the Parish Health Officer to raise the
quarantine that Is doing SO much
harm to all interests. There 10 no
contention as to the right of the Par
ish Board of Health to put on quar-
an.ine for 81 days, after last infection,
but under the circumstances Is IL nee
essary? The fever is OF such mild
form that 100 cases would not occasion
any alarm here, it is a. easily hand
led as a bad cold and Ia no more dan
gerous. We feel certain IL COM
mittee representing the country peo-
pie were to call ON the Parish Health
Officer, DR.. w. J. Emmer, he would
tell them there was no danger. Those
who wish to come to town to trans
act their business should be allowed
to do SO and we understand that many
wish to come. We hope these sug-
gestions will meet with favor and be
acted upon.

INSANE FEAR.

Under the rapid strides which
science has made in the REFRESHING Of
infectious diseases, the insane fear ex
hibited by many persons is entirely
without foundation, and is the result
of ignorance or neglect to keep abreast
with the march Of great events
Science has demonstrated beyond q
peradventure that Yellow Fever cannot
be contracted only through the me-
dunn Of the Stegomyia, that inoculs-
ton cannot occur by simple contact
with the victim, or breathing the st-
mosphere Of the room or place where
confined. This has been demonstrat.
ed unequivocally this summer in New
Orleans, and to deny IL or refuse to
accept it places the one among those
who are not capable Of approaching
unanswerable argument, or determined
not to soc the truth Of the fast now
accepted the world over. DR.. J. n.
White took charge of the situation in
New Orleans in August with 616 cases
Of yellow fever reported. yet notwith.
standing this stupenduous fact, he
has through his methods Of sanitation
isolation and destroying Of the muir
derous Stegomyia, reduced this num-
Der to cases on October 18th and but
one death, this in . city Of $50, O00
population and without the interven-
ton Of frost. Such wondrous work
such astounding victory was never be.
fore heard Of in all the histories Of cpl.
denies in Louisiana. In view Of this
wonderful work how pusillanimous
and silly is the insane fear displayed
in our Parish over the few cases, and
one death that occurred in our City,
all af which arc convalscent, no addi.
tional cases and all the points Of in
lection closely guarded. It Is impos-
sible for the fever ut this late day to
spread, therefore the necessity for
keeping up q senseless quarantine no |
longer exists. Our people from any
part of the Parish can enter this City
with perfect impunity and without |
the slightest danger. We trust our
people will lay aside these groundless
fears, and not become the dupes Of |
those who would attack the CONNER
cial interests Of oul city by the cry Of
contagion, in order that they may de-
fleet to themselves business which
would otherwise como to this City and
which Of right belongs to IL. We ap-
peal to the good sense Of our people to
take cool courageous look ct the sit
uation and not be kept away by fears
augmented by interested parties.
