Colfax Chronicle:
Representative Y. L. Fontenot. Of
st. Landry, had a bill before the Leg
isIature to prevent stations and jacks
from roaming at large, and it was
killed by a vote of 81 to DO. We
have an interest in Mr.. Fontenot up
here in Grant Parish. because be was
the principal Of one of our high
schools at Pollock for a couple
Of years, and we feel some resent
ment that his bill should have been
thus ruthlessly slaughtered. We do
not know the exact letter and provis-
ions of Mr.. Fontenot's bill, but think
he must have made some great mis-
take by failing to provide definitely
in The bill that it should apply only
to jackasses of the four-Iegged va
riety. It may have been that if the
legislative soIons were convinced the
bill would not restrict the freedom OF
animals Of the tWo-legged variety it
would have met with more favor.

Civilization and Missions.

There is a question that is larger
than government or trade, and that is
the moral ~weil-being of the vast mil
lions who have come under the protec-
ton of modern governments. The rep
resentative of the Christian religion
must have his place side by side with
the mar of government and trade, and
for generations that representative
must be supplied in the person of the
foreign missionary from America and
Europe. Civilization can only be per
manent and continue a blessing to any
people if, in addition to promoting
their material well-being, it also
stands for an orderly individual liber.
~, for the growth of intelligence and
for equal justice in the administration
of law. Christianity alone meets these
fundamental requirements. The
change OF sentiment in favor Of the
foreign mis- sionary in a single genera
ton has been remarkable.

is an unusually high average, and it
demonstrates beyond the shadow of a
doubt that the farmers in this part
Of the Dominion still know how to
grow first-class wheat. The crop of

only 70 per cent. Good weather
