MUNICIPAL MEAT INSPECTION.

The Chief is in receipt of a letter
from Mayor Ed. H. McCnistion OF
Paris, Texas, which is reproduced be-
low. Paris, f1ourishing and enter
prising city of about $4,000 spopula-
ton. has the distinction of being
the first place in the United States
to establish a municipal abattolr and
reduction plant, where all the meat
offered for sale in the community
is inspected and slaughtered under
official supervision, and the system
is working so successfully and salts
factorily that widespread attention
is being attracted to the subject.
There can be no doubt that the ex-
ample of Paris will be generally fol
lowed by progressive towns all over
the country, and it is the sincere de,
sire of The Chief that Donaldsonyille
shall be among the first in the pro
cession.
The article in the publication
known as Ice and Refrigeration, re

a detailed and interesting descrlp
ton of the Paris plant and its oper
ations, and extracts will be repro

THE SUGAR thrift.

CoSgr0VesS w eekly IS fllled Will
the conceit that it has shown the
combined Wickedness and futility Of
the existing sugar tariff because, for
sooth, the Vaccinations of the sugar
trust, by which that supposedly law
less and corrupt concern has crushed
out competition in refining and con-
trolled the market price Of the pro-
duct, have deprived our domestic
sugar producers of the measure OF
benefit which the protective tariff
was designed to give them.
The esteemed contemporary, $
point Of view is confused. 1t is
not the fault of the tariff nor Of
the protective principle that an il
legal combination Of capital, oper-
ating In restraint of trade, has in
flicted injustice and injury upon the
sugar industry of Louisiana and
other states. Like effects from like
causes have been noted with ref
erence to industries and enterprises
having no connection with the cues
ton Of tariff. The operations of the
Northern Securities Company, Of
the Standard Oil Company and Of the
| American Tobacco Company, for in
stance, which have been condemned
| BY the courts as contrary to law ano
equity. were in noWise affected b!
or concerned with the tariff.
It is gratifying to all concerned II
the welfare Of Louisiana's valuable
sugar interests to know that the Ugh
of publicity is likely to be throw
upon the transactions and methods
i Of the sugar trust through the me
dunn of the congressional investiga
/ ton now in progress. Messrs. JOIN
i Dymond, Theodore S. Wilkinson, JOS
! eph M. Burguieres and Chas. X
FarWe1l, four of the best INFORMED
sugar men in the state, were sum
i moned to appear before the Hard
4 wick committee, and it cannot o.
doubted that their testimony ma
| done much to place the domestl
/ cane-sugar industry in its prope

( that, whatever may have been tn
i shortcomings or misdeeds Of tn
trust, the present sugar tariff

There was nothing. in the test
Il mony of Mr.. G. d. Colcock, SO oftel
q quoted with JUNCTION by Cosgroye,
Weekly, incompatible with this log

CANDIDATES a r. C4lMPII.

Al Democratic mass meeting was
held at the village of Campti, Natchl-

Il, at which some 1000 people as
sembled to enjoy the intellectual
qualification of listening to speeches

sayory barbecued meats and other
good things to eat and drink.
P. A. Cloutier was the chairman

Campti is in the parish where

There is a reasonable" loop
hole in the Supreme Courts de-
cisiOn that the trusts will not be
slow to avail themselves of, and
it will be hard proposition for
the government to show that
there is an unreasonable re-
straint of trade in any of the
monopolized industries. Any one
must admit that the control of
the oil business by the Standard
has resulted in a better and
cheaper illuminant to the masses
than when the oil trade was com
petitive, and it has already been
estimated by oil men who know
what they are talking about. that
under resumed competition the
price of oil must either advance
or the quality of the commodity
deteriorate. We hold no brief
from the Standard, we simply
recognize the correctness of the
economic principle under which
