From a judicial standpoint the
parish of st. Mary. we believe,
will compare favorably with any
other parish of the State. Among
its many excellent officers none is
gaining more in public admiration
than our new district attorney,
Hon. Thos. Milling. He has been
in Office only about a year now,
and the method he is pursuing
and pains he is taking to fulfill
his duties plainly indicate that he
will make such an excellent re-
cord that will be hard to excel by
any of his successors in the Office.
The old saw that "a new broom
sweeps WE'LL" finds no application
in his case, for we feel thoroughly
convinced that the end of his term
will find him doing his full duty
ever more sedulously than now,
when he will have acquired more
experience and familiarity with
the manifold duties of the Office.
As district attorney he has start
ed out we'll. Not case occurs
wherein the State is to be de-
fendant but that he repairs to
the spot or vicinity to CLEAN all
the information to be had or that
is needful to make an intelligent
prosecution; and many other
measures is Mr.. Milling putting
into practice for the proper and
thorough enforcement of law and
order. Along with like efficiency
in every other branch, the district
attorney-we congratulate our
selves upon the facts in splendid
hands, and therein alone lies that
protection and that security which
everv man must feel and which is
always one of the greatest incen-
tives to other developments and
to the attracting within our bor-
ders of an Industrious, law-abid.

corners.

Was Speaking on Tariff.

Washington Representative Tool, Issue
With Payne a. 20 Number of
ORIGINALS in Mills.

Washington, u. O.. March Co.
Through a MISUNDERSTANDING Rcprcs-
entauvo Byrd OF Mississippi and
Representative Fordney of Michigan
almost came TO blows on the floor OF
the house today while the latter was
making a speech ON the tariff.
When the tarin bin was laid before
the house today Mr. Humphreys of
Washington, took issue with some
statements mado bv Mr.. Payne in his
opening speech regarding the number
of orientals engaged i'm the lumber
mills iu British Columbia. Mr.. Payne
had said that he thought there were
fewer Orientals working there than I'm
the state of Washington. That state
ment was erroneous. he said He de-
clarcd that over 80 per cent of the
men engaged i'm the lumber and shingle
mills of British Columbia were orient
ais and were paid lower wages than
American min laborers and that there
fore the cost OF production was less
out OF the 1880 men employed i'm the
shingle mills of Washington. Mr. Hum
phreys said there were but Al or.entaIs.
He also said mat of the llQgUO men
employed iu the lumber and single
industry OF that state there were but
l,5oO orieutals.
Mr.. Humphrey in pleading for an
increased duty ON shingles. warned
the Republicans that they could not
escape their responsibility in SD far as
the problem of oriental labor was con-
Cerned
NOW he said, eve have an oppor-
tunity TO see whether or not We are
going back on what we have said
about protecting the labor of this
country from the iuinous competition
of foreign countries"
While the Payne bin. ne said. has
protected the Industries OF New Eng
land. Pennsylvania and New York
and they were in operation. out In
Washington the conditions wero eX-
actly the reverse.
"Our mills are closing he said.
and men being thrown out OF em-
plOymout"
lie recounted the benefits derived
under the Dingley bin ana inquired
how he, as Republican and a pro-
tec-ionist. could go back TO his con-
sutuents and say that the Payne bill
was better than the Dingley bill
on the authority OF Mr. Fordney Of
Michigan, the Washington member
said that the witnesses before the
committee on ways and monas. who
wanted lumber put on the free list,
were men interested I'm CANADIAN
timber. while those who asked for
the retention Of the Dmglcy duty
were men interested in timber in the
United states.
