Instruction in Common Schools.
[St. Bernard Voice.


What we need most at present in Louisi-
ana is common, practical education,
which will be of great use to the child
when he grows up. He is entitled to a
thorough training in the common English
branches, and we should see to it that it is
given him. We believe that educational
frills and fringes should be afforded only
after the means of obtaining common
education are amply supplied, and not to
the prejudice or detriment of the latter.
1t is we'll and good to soar among the stars,
delve among the rocks and resurrect dead
languages, but it should not and must not
be done to the exclusion of something more
practical and useful. What we want is
less show and pretension and more down.
right, actual knowled Of what we ought to
practically know to meet the every day
exigencies of life. Louisiana is one of the
most illiterate States in the Union and we
want this stain wiped out as soon as pos
sible. We must encourage and support
those who are engaged in the good work of
building up our public school system and
not allow our personal likes and dislikes to
lead our judgment into error.

WHAT THE PAPERS ARE SAYING.

Baltimore Sun: Even name like Laszlo
Szechenyi doesn't scare off an American
girl when she is hunting Count.
Wilmington IN. CO. Messenger: The
prohibition sentiment is growing stronger
here, as it is in every section of the State.
Baltimore Sun: The President ought
not to say unother word about the punish
ment of lawbreakers in the future until he
has vindicated the power of his official
righteousness through prosecutions of
present offenders.
Chicago Journal: The policy of this
government should be to avoid every ten
dency to further concentration of our
national life, not to hasten it. The more
small business men there are the more
widely diffused will be prosperity and the
happier the country.
Greneda Sentinel: Asto whether or not
the farmers obtain fifteen cents per pound
for cotton depends upon them and them
alone. United, they succeed; divided,
failure is sure. The world must have their
cotton and with the present supposed crop
yield, fifteen cent cotton is not unreason-
able.
Richmond News Leader: Whatevermay
be said of the old South and its follies and
foibles, its weaknesses and its errors, every
student of history must observe the lofty
rules of personal conduct which governed
it. Strict integrity, unflinching loyalty to
trust, scrupulous regard for justice, broad,
generous and fervent patriotism, marked
the private life and the public methods of
the South of that bygone day. Sometimes
it may have been quixotic; but it is far
be even absurdly quixotic than morally lax
and politically loose. Allegiance to prin-
ciple regardless of the dollars, the places
or the honors in sight was the keynote of
conduct. It governed thought and action
and kept mems hands clean and their
consciences clear. Our hope is that the
country presently may be brought to COM
prehend clearly what the standards and
purposes of Southern craftsmanship were
and to return to them.

AN INCIDENT, AND HISTORY.
Nashville American

The Philadelphia Record says:
elm this latitude we hear a great deal
about Libby and Andersonville and Castle
Thunder, but not many ever heard of Ell
mira or Johnson S Island. The truth is that
the death rate of Confederates in Northern
prisons was very high. Southern writer's
produce the figures to show that it was
higher than the death rate in the Confede-
crate prison pens, for which our winters
may account. The South was in no condi-
ton to take good care of its prisoners.
Wirz and some other Southern officers were
unquestionably brutes, but when the South
cut up its carpets for blankets for its SOL
diers, and ground the cobs with the corn

THE STATE PRESS.

Mansfield Journal: The newspaper cor
respondents are not to be permitted to en-
ter the Louisiana jungles with President
Roosevelt. For which newspaper readers
will return profound thanks.
Jennings Times Record: The question
of greed is the issue, and the dollar is
looked upon as better than the man. The
question of honesty and of mans duty to
his fellowman is greatly ignored.
Mansfield Journal: If even one-half of
the hard things that is said against Col.
Wilkerson by the Sanders press or against
Gov. Sanders by the Wilkerson press were
true, neither of those gentlemen is suit
able man to fill the exalted office of chief
executive of the State. These ugly say
ings are intended for campaign purposes,
yet they are confusing to many men.
Winfield Sentinel: There is too much
ostentation; parade; too much regard for
personal prosperity; too much Indifference
to the public good; too much disregard for
the welfare Of others; too great ambition
to initiate values for personal profit, to
cherish and display that lofty patriotism
that actuated the men who battled for
freedom at Bunker Hill, Lexington and
Saratoga.
Zwolle Eagle: The revenue from the
frog industry in Louisiona is something
over 100000 per annum. The frogs are
shipped alive in barrels, packed in moss.
Over 1000, 900 barrels of this living freight
is shipped yearly-some going west as far
as California. Of course, they are no or
binary frogs but are carefully raised and
fattened, being fed on bread, meal and
cracklings.
Lafayette Advertiser: Now let the BUS
mess men of the South realize that Is
cents cotton means 1926, 900, 900 to them;
let the business men of Louisiana realize
that Is cents cotton means $22, 500, 900 to
them; let the business men of the Parish
of Lafayette realize that Is cents cotton
means over half million dollars in circu-
lation here more than we have been having

Franklin Waterman: The State Board
of Equalization is about as useful as a
wooden eye, and if the legislature intends
to render some service to the State, it will
get out it's matchet and cut away some of
its useless branches of the State govern
ment. We are being ridden to death by
various Boards and Commissions, swallow
ing up taxation faster than it can accumu-
late by rapid and unreasonable mutations
of property values. The State Board of
Equalization is no more of necessity than
the Oyster Commission, and its purpose is
to bleed five cents per barrel from poor
fisherman who can scarcely grind out a
livelihood by heavy toll in the blazing sun
and the chilly winds that sweep across the
sea.

Police Find Much Plumber in Raid
in Flat Occupied by Dam
EerOus Gang.

New York, July 12.-With the arraign-
ment in Yorkville Police Court to-day Of
three young women, all handsomely
dressed, and three men, who were caught
in a raid on a fiat at 35I East Forty-ninth
street, the police gave It as their opinion
that a gang Of burglars and crooks had
been rounded up and the hiding place of
valuable loot found. Much stuff which is
believed to have been stolen was discov-
cred in suit cases in the fat together
with burglars tools, 200 skeleton keys,
two revolvers, and several blackjacks.
Central office got a tip that the fiat
was occupied by a suspicious gang, and
about midnight five men were sent to
the house and surrounded the building.
There was no response, but a shut
fling Of feet told the detectives the fiat
was occupied. The flimsy door was broken
down. AS the three detectives rushed
in one of the women, who afterward
said she was Margaret King, ran to the
rear window and leaped out. She was
quickly captured by the detectives in the
yard.
The other two women and three men
took their stand behind a heavy table as
a sort Of bulw ark, and warned the de-
tectives not to approach too near. One of
the women then pointed to the window
and cried TO the others: Get through
that"
But at the same time there came the
cries Of the King girl as she was
caught Then the others showed fight,
but after a short struggle the five sur
rendered.
The prisoners and suit cases of sus-
peeted loot and tools are at the East
Fifty-frst street police station.
