THE SHOTGUN QUARANTINE.

One of the most brutal instances of
the shotgun quarantine is narrated in
detail in a late issue of the New Or
leans Picayune.
1t gives an account of the frightful
outrages perpetrated On Hon. j. l..
Gaudet, Judge of the Twenty-eiehth
district of Louisiana, and his daughter
and child. The Judge, who had been
holding court in an adjoining parish,
ON returning to his home in st. Char
les, accompanied by the lady and her
child, was set upon by the quarantine
guard and would have been beaten to
death if he had not been rescued by
some of the guards who recognized
him, and who also released the lady
and her child from a detention prison
in which they We're incarcerated, the
lady already having been manacled
like convict. But this is merely an
Incident There is a case in which
a man ordered his sister and child
away at the muzzle of a gun.
In this twentieth century of the
worlds progress in scientific knowl-
edege and general enlightenment the
shotgun quarantine, the most mon
strous relic Of savaeery that could be
imagined, still survives, not among a
few barlarians living in separation
from their more intelligent fellows,
but il is the general and prevailing ex-
preston of a frenzied panic which has
overtaken the people of the entire
south and those of a large part of the
northern states.
From The Gulf of Mexico to the dis
tance of thousand miles nnrthward.
At every railway station. steamboat
landing and crossroads village the
people are cut with guns and pistols,
not merely to warn away every luck
less person who may fall into their
hands. but TO kill him or her who
should attemept to violate their quar-
antine. Not only do they commit in
human cutraees on strangers. hnt in
their frantic panic they ignore their
own friends, kith and kin, and no
claim of favoritism or affection is rec
ognized.

There is nothing like free rural mail

tone of the Japanese press in regard
t. the question of peace is firmer than
ever. Assuming the correctness OF
the published statement as to Japan's

in expressing surprise at the modera-

they notice the absence of any provis-

considered an essential guarantee of
permanent peace. The papers are
unable to sympathize with Russia s

of the history of Greece and Rome,
