DON'T KNOCK.
Thfbodaux Sentinel.

Don't "knock" that is, find fault
with and run down yonr town, pa
IRISH or people. There will be
enough outsiders to do it, you may
be sure; so don't do it yourself.
On the contrary. stand up for and
defend your town, and parish and
their people against the assaults
of others. Put in a good word for
them, wherever the occasion pre-
sents an opportunity for doing so.
Things may not always be as we
think they ought to be. but that is
of no concern to outsiders and no
reason for proclaiming it'abroad.
Our town and parish are as good
as any in the State, and our peo-
pie are inferior to none, all abuse
aud depreciation of few malcon-
tents to the contrary notWithstand-
ing. They may not be all liter
ate, but they are intelligent, pa
triotic, honest, Industrious, law
abiding and God-fesring and will
compare most favorably with the
people of other communities, CIV
en- to Dragging about a larger de-
gree of literacy. Let to ourselves
we can work ont our problems,
vexations though some of them
may be, to a satisfactory solution.
There is no need Of outside inter-
ference; no need to carry our pet
ty Iuarrels abroad and to parade
our differences relating to our IL
fairs before the general public.
Family differences should be
settled within family circle, and,
likewise, differences IN parochial
affairs should be settled among
SO, quit knocking" 1t does
the town and the parish no good;
On the contrary, it does both seri-
Gus injury. 1t gives outsiders an.
erroneous and bad opinion of our
people.
Let US settle our differences
among ourselves. in an intelligent
and patriotic way, without abuse.
without passion, without crimina-
ton or recrimination.
Whatever these differences, let
us take up for our town and pa
rish and our people, ever defend
them from assault and speak in
their favor and praise whenever an |
opportunity offers.
That is the way to improve and
10 build up aud uplift the commu-
nifty in which we live. That is the
way to discharge our civic duty.

The makeshifts and substitutes

decades, have all proven their in

Thomas Jefferson that William
Jennings Bryan has been advo-
