practically unanimous votes
those very measures which had
previously been opposed, held up
or threatened with defeat. 1t is
somewhat difficult to truly esti-
mate Legislation adopted in this
"harem-scarem" way. The ap-
preparation bill gave US a chance
to size up the work of the Gen
eral assembly-and destroyed a
great deal of the prestige and
reputation iU should have won.
After reducing the tax rate on
the ground that the revenues
were excessive and unnecessary,
the Appropriations Committee
brought in a bill which, in spite
of it's many omissions, appro-
priated more than the State had
in sight. even with the splendid
surplus on hand. The House
swelled this bill and made it
even worse, providing for a big
deficit. It is true that the
measure was finally dOctOred up
so as to be presentable: but
this can not take away from the
fact that the General Assembly
had shown in this-as in other
matters-a carelessness, an in
ability to understand the needs
of the State, a disregard for the
demand for economy. that large
ly forfeited the good will of the
people in spite of all it's splendid
work, and left behind the i'm
preston that this work would
not have been done but for the
outside pressure brought to
bear on it.
What we say of the General
Assembly is said of that body as
a whole. There are many mem
bers who showed the right spirit
from the very beginning. who
were fully in accord with the
popular wishes, who refused to
play the game of politics, but de-
voted themselves wholly to the
business of the State. 1t is
probably their influence and
popular pressure from the out
side which caused the Assembly
to do so much good and to avoid
the many dangerous measures
placed in it's way.
AS it is, we do not feel that it
as a whole deserves high praise
for what it has done. Much of
this work was unwillingly done,
and would have been beaten but
for the fact that many of the
legislators feared the popular in
that failure would
have aroused.
The reforms obtained were Sc
cured mainly by and through the
people; and it is significant of
the fact that the people of
are in control of their
affairs again when they succeed
in getting such important re-
from a Legislature a ma
of which openly expressed
themselves opposed to when

WORK OF THE LOUISIANA LEGISLATURE.

tralizatiOn, by which all the
power was conferred in the hands
of the Governor, enabling him to
build a great political machine
and to become the dictator of
the State. The popular strug-
gle to recover control of the Off
ces, hitherto made in vain, has
at last been crowned with sue
! cess, thanks to the Legislature,
and the assessors, members of
school boards and the other i'm
portant offices have been taken
from the Governor and returned
to the people, to be filled by
them.
In the light of these splendid
achievements, the Legislature
would seem to have a right to
claim that it has done more for
the people and for good govern
ment in Louisiana than any
previous body. Yet, as we have
said, there is little enthusiasm
over it or disposition to give it
credit for what has been done.
For this the General Assembly
has itself to blame because of
the extraordinary attitude it as
Sumed on all these measures and
because of the unsatisfactory
way in which it finally passed
them. It is difficult to appre-
ciate reforms secured in a sort
of rough and tumble" catch
as-catch-can," haphazard way.
When the Legislature met
much of the proposed work was
cut out for it in such a form that
it's task was easy. The Govern
or, in his message, presented in
a succinct and forceful manner
the fiscal reform that could and
should be made: and the people,
through the press or their mass
meetings, had clearly stated
what they desired in the way of
primaries, the abolition of patron
age, the return of the offices to
themselves and careful economy
in expenses.
To the surprise of all. the
Legislature seemed at first in
clined to ignore all these
measures and to play politics.
The reforms brought before it
were considered, not on their
merits, but how they would
this or that candidate or
politician. 1t seemed to take
great delight in opposing fiscal
reforms or in changing the
names of the measures intro
.uced or in making alterations
in them. It looked for a time as
though all the Legislation de-
manded might be defeated and
left in a state of the
greatest confusion. There were
so many and such strong popular
expressions of Indignation that
the Legislature in the middle of
the session suddenly changed
about and began passing-by

days session, during which
some two hundred laws were
passed and a large amount of i'm
portant business was transacted
The session presents a most
striking paradox in the matter
of legislative work.
No session has ever been 81
prolific of important and neces
sary legislation, none has car
ried through more popular re
forms or has dore more gOOo
Cor the people and the State OF
louisiana: yet there have been
few sessions whose adjourn.
ment has been received with
more genuine satisfaction.
1t seems almost ungrateful to
saw this of a body which has
done so much for the people.
1t has granted them the first re.
duction in the tax rate since the
white people of Louisiana recOv'
cred control of the State in 1879.
For twenty-seven years the
people have been asking for re,
lief from this burden. During
all those years Louisiana has
been prospecting and growing in
wealth. increasing it's assess
ment nearly threefold, yet the
burden of taxation has remained
unchanged. although it was re-
duced during this period of
prosperity in every other South
ern State. The revenues stead
ily increased from year to year,
but the Legislature was always
ready with new expenses to meet
any increase and thus prevent
any reduction in the tax rate.
New Offices were created, or sal
aries increased, whenever there
was more money in sight to pay
them; and if any balance &C
cumuIated the General Assembly
stood ready to "blow it in" 1t
was to be expected, therefore,
that the Legislature which re-
duced the tax rate would meet
with shouts of applause from
every portion of the State and
be praised as the best ever elect
ed in Louisiana. But we have
heard no shouts or clapping of
hands.
For eight years the Constitu-
ton of the State has ordered the
Legislature to carry out the con-
stitutional requirement that all
taxation shall be equal and all
assessments uniform; but for
session after session it has de-
fed this mandate and has con-
tinued a system of inequality,
favoritism and injustice that has
long been a public scandal. The
evil was notorious, but the legis-
lators were stubborn and laughed
at the proposition to create a
State Board of Equalization.
This long neglected but most
necessary work was done by
the present Legislature. Here
again it deserves all the praise
that can be heaped on it; for
while it only did what the Consti-
tuition ordered, itdid whatnoother
Legislature had the courage to
do. Yet it's action seems to arouse
little enthusiasm.
Coming to the democratic and
popular reforms intended to put
an end to the Republican princi-
pies which crept into our gov
eminent during the days of re-
construction and which have re-

all the efforts to get rid of them,

pILATORY TACTICS BY STATE.
Would Postpone Trial Of Meyer. Hay
wood and Pettibone.

Caldwell, May 29.-When the case
against Meyer, Haywood and Petit
bone was called by Judge Smith this
morning, Attorney Richardson for the
defense filed motions for change of
judge and change of venue.
Chief Prosecutor Hawley called the
attention of the court to section SIT
of the Revised Statutes providing that
in cases of habeas corpus. on appeal
to the supreme court of the United
States from the circuit court, the
matter stays all proceedings in the
local courts until the appealed case is
disposed of. The defendants have
an appeal pending from the ninth cir
cult court of Idaho, therefore the dis
trict court of Canyon county is barred
from further hearing of the cases un-
til the supreme court has decided.
The defendants asked that the mat
ter be considered at once, which was
set for o'clock. The defense claims
the action is an effort on the part of
the prosecution to postpone the trial
over a term.
Under a strong guard Meyer, Hay
wood and Pettibone were brought to
Caldwell from the Boise Jail this
morning and met at the depot by their
attorneys. They were taken to the
sheriff's office at the court house.
Mrs Meyer and Mrs. Pettibone ac-
companied them.
