Every man has philosophy OF some
sort. whether he knows it or not, which

rich and great, will sanctify the blind for

will make your motives habitually great
and honorable, and light up in an instant
thousand noble disdains at the very
thought of meanness and fraud.''

Shreveport Caucasian: In Louisiana
the certainty of punishment by imprison-
ment at hard labor in the pen is greater
for stealing chicken than for killing q
man.
Monroe Star: Judging from the recent
results of trials in the District Court in
Monroe the best place to shoot a man is in
the back. The plea of self-defense can
be entered then.
Mansfield Journal: There are entirely
too many offices in Louisiana and the SAL
aries of some of those we have are too
high. Now and then an office is abolished,
but straightway one or two new one are
created.
Assumption Pioneer: Strange, isn't it.,
that the people of this parish who contrib
uted $4,000 last year to the State Game
Commission have to appeal to the local
government to protect the fish of their
streams?
Louisiana Democrat: The Game Com
mission is about as efficacious and accom-
plishes about as much good as the State
Board of Equalization. They are both
unadulterated sinecures, which should be
speedily legislated out of existence.
Monroe Star: The killing of young
man in Nashville few days ago was the
tenth murder in that city since the COM
mencement of the Cooper trial. There are
twenty nine murder cases on the county
court docket in that city yet to be tried.

New Orleans Picayune: There can be
