To the Editor of The Dispatch.
When l stepped from the Nashville
ard Louisville fast train last Sunday
night at $50 o'clock and walked
few squares from the depot, l Won
dered if this was really a Southern
city. Instead Of finding the o!d-scH l.
southern ways and customs for which
on: dear old Southland is noted, l
found Sunday theatres running ut full
blast; men creeping out from saloon
side doors, and on every hand it
seemed the topic of conversation
among the better dressed class was
chiefly o. the baseball score for the
afternoon.
The tired-looking policemen lag
ging around upon every corner Of Ca
nal Street, the main thoroughfare of
the city, seemed as though he was on
ly one of the surging multitude, be-
reft entirely of his authority aside
from his helmet, club and blue uni
form.
A number of giant-sized mosquitoes
were among the first parties to give
me attention, and they seemed to be
we'll versed in lodging undercut
blows, as much so as either Jeifries or
Johnson, the famous boxers, the re-
port of whose fight in San Francisco
is ADVERTISED very extensively to be
given by private wire IN this spirited
city.
New Orleans claims total popula-
ton OF nearly 3s5 5,Oo0, and has nearly
400 miles Of paved sidewalks. About
2.COO street cars hurry through the
city, both day and night, carrying
the people from one point to another.
Several parks are spread out for the
interest of visitors, among the proml-
nent ones being the Audubon, Jack
son Square and Lafayette, the two
last named being adorned by statues
of Andrew Jackson and Henry Clay,
respectively. Just across the Missis-
sippi river is the site upon which An
drew Jackson fought the famous bat
tie of New Orleans, and transfer boats
ply regularly between here and there,
carrying on each trip many tourists
and travellers.
visited Jackson Square this morn
ing and beheld with admiration the
equestrian statue to his memory, on
which "Old Hickory" sits with hat in
hand upon a rearing charger, while
beneath the bronze statue are en-
graved the immortal words upon the
granite base: ''The Union must and
will be preserved"
Just outside the iron enclosure of
this park and across the street are the
world-famed buildings of interest,"
the old Spanish Cabildo and the
French Cathedral. Around this plot
was once the scene Of many duel
years ago, while in the Cabildo was
the treaty of peace signed between
the United States and France.
The morals of New Orleans are dis
gustingly low in some of the districts.
I will sail from here in few days.
In conclusion, I find no place like
old Lexington and hope some day to
make it MY permanent home.

Be Careful What You Say.

In speaking of PERSONS faults,
Pray, don't forget your own;
Remember, those with homes of glass
Should never throw stone.
If we had nothing else to do
Than talk of those who sin,
IT'S better we commence at home,
And from that point begin.
We have no right to judge man
Until he's fairly tried;
Should we not like his company,
We know the worit! is wide.
Some may have faults, and who has
not?
The cid as well az young;
Perhaps we may, ornaught we know,
Have fifty to their one.
Then, let us all, when we begin
TO slander friend or foe,
Think of the harm one word would do
To those we little know.
Remember, curses som etimes, like
Our chickens, roost at home,
Don't speak of others faults until
You have one of your own.

ATTENTION TO DETAILS.

Discussing the Illinois Central
graft revelations, the New York
World remarks that it is one of the
results OF "frants finance and one
man rule" The World adds that
there were no scandals in the af-
fairs of the Illinois Central when the
road was managed by men who de-
voted their entire attention to it,
The point is we'll taken. When the
late r. n. Hartman secured control
of the Illinois Central system there
were varying opinions as TO whether
such control was calculated to bene-
fit the road In some ways perhaps,
the Illinois Central was benefited.
| In others it was not Mr.. Hartman

impossible for him TO give that init

of the requisites Of the successful
conduct OF large business, He con

the roads necessarily had to be del

ROGER SULLIVAN IN TWO ROLES.

In commenting upon Mr.. Sullivan's
protestations and disclaimers OF
"bossism" in connection with legis-
lative nominations the Reeord-Herald
of last Tuesday ventured to ask these
questions:
What did Mr. Sullivan do to pre-
vent the success of the Lorimer sen
atorial candidacy during the period Of
it's incubation? Did he ever
ask Democrat not to vote for Lori
men? Did he ever make an anti
Lorimer appeal in the name Of unity,
discipline, loyalty, the need of a re-
spectacle and efficient opposition"
The entirely credible and probable
story of the unsuccessful attempt of
certain persons to buy seventeen
Democratic votes for Albert J. Hop
kns represents Mr. Sullivan as hay
ing played a very aggressive and de-
cisiye part in thwarting the con-
spirators. He rushed 10 Springfield;
he read the riot &C, to the morally
shaky and weak brethren; he threat
ened to break the political bones OF
every Hopkins Democrat; he told
them that he wouldn't tolerate any
corrupt bargain and that no dirty
money" could safely pc taken by a
single Democrat.
On that memorable occasion Mr.
Sullivan forgot that he was opposed
to bossism and bullying. He spoke
he acted; he used his power without
. single thought about necessary lin
itations Of leadership
Why did paralyzing fears and mis-
givlngs come over him when Lorimel
became the senatorial candidate anC

strange change in his attitude to be
explained? why had explosive anC

Sales of Liquor by Social Clubs
That seekers after social pleasure,
combined with liquid refreshments,
are having troubles of their own is
attested by recent decisions of the
Supreme Courts of Washington Colo
RADIO and South Carolina. The Spo
kane Club is a corporation organized
for the purpose of acquiring property
and conducting social club for the
accommodation Of members of the as
ISOLATION; its building being fitted
with dining rooms, sleping rooms, and
roome for social enjoyment and en-
tertainmeut. Expenses are met by
initiation fees and charges for various
accommodations, such as meals,
cigars, liquors, use of billiard tables,
etc. No profit making is attempted.
There is an ordinance of the city or
Spokane prohibiting the selling or
GispOsing of liquors without obtain
ing license therefor. For time no
attempt was made to enforce this as
against the club and "all went merry
as a marriage bell" But time Of
change came and the steward was
arrested and convicted Of violation of
the ordinance. The claim was made
that the transactions OF the club in
furnishing liquors to its members did
not constitute sales The Washing
ton Supreme Court could not, how
ever, be induced to accept this view
Of the case and the conviction was
sustained. The case is reported UNI
der the title City of Spokane V.

time. will be brought to a successful
conclusion in the very near future.
Then there is the need of better
fire protection for the city, in order
that the burdensome insurance rates
NAV be reduced. In this the city au-
thorities must be depended upon 70
take needed action. Some improve
ments were madc this year, and
while they constitute a considerable
advance, they fall far short of what
is needed in order TO give the citE
such a system in equipment and in
service as will place ,;e city in a
lower-rate classification according to
the underwriters fixed rules and
regulations. The pressing need of an
electric fire alarm system was dem
cnstrated only the other day. as 1t
had been demonstrated many times
before, by a misunderstanding as TO
the location Of the Planters House
fire. which led the firemen to a point
blocks away from where they were
wanted, causing delay that might
easily have resulted seriously had
conditions been favorable. Improve
ments in the fire department suffi-
cient 10 insure lower rates of insur-
ance, ought to be insisted upon by
the people of Cairo as one of next
years contributions to the city's pro,
gress by the city authorities.
Another thing that the business In
terests of the city ought to insist
upon is that the city council shall
pass the ordinance placing Cairo in
the newly formed road district. Goos
roads is one of the prerequisites to q
city's growthgood roads connecting
it with the farming community in its
vicinity. Cairo Is about to tax her
self many thousands of dollars to
make a substantial highway of Syca-
more street, the only inlet to the
city by land. But what would be the
use of doing this if this highway is
TO stop at the city limits? The only
good excuse for such an expenditure
is that it win somehow enable the
farming population, and the people in
the smaller towns Of the county, to
reach Cairo easily at all times OF the
year-especially at such times when
the weather is bad and farmers have
leisure, not being able to work on
their farms. To justify the improve
ment OF Sycamore street it will be
necessary to extend the roads in the
county to the settlements referred to-
and this can not be done under the
law unless Cairo is made part OF
the district to be improved, so that
the road tax collected in the city may
he applied to road building in the
district. Another strong point In
favor Of adopting the ordinance Is
that the city will get half the road
tax levied for use upon its own
streets. amounting to about $4,000,
whereas it can levy no road tax at all
unless it joins the road district. That
this money is needed to keep the
streets of the city in repair goes with
out saying, and unless it is collected
in the way of road tax it must be
gotten in some other way, or the
streets of the city must suffer.
