THE PUBLIC BALLS.

Acadia parish is cursed with an
institution that is responsible, d.
rectly or indirectly, for a large
percentage of the indictments by
the grand jury for minor infrac-
tons of the peace and for most of
the killings that are committed in
the parish. The public ball is de-
olared by the grand jury to be
the most of the disorders in this
parish and the police jury has been
called upon to pass an ordinance
calculated to suppress this evil.
Judge Campbell is authority for
the statement that in his twelve
years of service as district attor-
ney and Judge he has been called
upon to face at the bar regularly
every year about the same crowd,
recruited every year by boys
growing up and the ranks occa-
sionally thinned by death, but the
main body of offenders are from
year to year the same class Of men
and boys-the frequenters Of the
public balls.
This same state of things pre-
vailed in Lafayette parish until
five years ago, when the police
jury adopted an ordinance impos-
ing a license of $500 on public
balls. This effectually stopped
them, and at the last session of the
grand jury in Lafayette parish
there were no indictments. Be
fore the adoption Of the prohibi-
tory license ordinance conditions
in Lafayette parish were similar
to those in this parish. Judge
Campbell attributes the decrease
in misdemeanors to the abolition
Of the public ball.
Probably no parish in southern
Louisiana has a better reputation
for observance of the law than
Acadia, but the abolition of the
public balls would improve Aca-
dia morals and it's reputation. The
police jury should take some ac-
ton on this matter at an early |
meeting.-CrOwley Signal.

AN ELEMENT NEEDED IN RE-
FORM.

The Good Government League IS
actively at work trying to organ,
ize Leagues all over the state, ana
meetings addressed by prominent
speakers are being held, energetl-
cally assailing the present system
Of government in this state. But
none of the speakers have as yet
said word about the initiative,
referendum or recall.
In Democracy the people are
supposed to rule, but they do not
and cannot as long as they dele
gate their authority to set OF
law makers or executive officers
for two years or four years or any
length of time without control
over them.
Without the initiative the peo-
pie can have no law enacted by
their representatives unless the
representatives choose. Without
the referendum the legislature, po-
lice jury or city council can pass
laws distasteful or unsatisfactory
or give away valuable franchises
whether the people like it or not.
This is a most unreasonable power
to put into the hands of any set
of men, and yet we have done so,
leaving to ourselves no recourse.
And what is still more unreason-
able is that We should elect a man
to office with no power to dis
charge him until his term OF two
or four or more years is up. This
was not intended by the founders
of our government for they incor
porated into the Constitution the
right Of impeachment. But this
right Of impeachment is so diff
cult to exercise that it practically
amounts to nothing, and in order
to make it effective. the right OF
recall has been adopted which
upon petition Of certain number
Of voters, gives the people the
right to vote the officer out of of
flee if they choose. Having the
right of recall would place the
people in position of any busine
man in that they can discharge
employees at any time; and off
GERS should be only employees, not
bosses.
Mr.. Aswell declares for a con-
|stitutional convention to correct
the evils in our state system OF
government, but like all the 9th
ers, he fails to say word about
the initiative, referendum and re-
call, and without these reform will
lack being reform by considerable.
