HISTORY REPEATING ITSELF.

It was expected that the bill to
destroy the sugar industry of the
United States and change the COM
| pleyion of the Democratic party from
tariff for-revenue-only to free-trade
would be called up for vote in the
lower house of congress yesterday
and put through under whip and
spur, with Chairman Underwood of
the ways and means committee in the
saddle.
Louisiana looks to a Republican
senate and president to be saved
from it's Democratic friends, and it
will not look in vain. Louisiana has
gone through the same experience
before, and manifested its gratitude
by continuing to kiss the hand that
smote it and scornfully turning its
political back upon the men and the
party who came to its relief when
ruin impended.
Of course this history must be re-
peated. Louisiana can't 60 back on
the glorious old name of Democracy.
Names are such vital things, you
know, whether they mean anything
or not.
One of the adjunets Of an excit-
ing municipal campaign in the little
town of Kentwood, Tangipahoa par
ish, was the arrest OF Editor Leo De
Coux of the KentWood Commercial
on a charge of criminal libel pre-
ferred by Mayor WEIGH, a candidate
for reelection. Bond was fixed at
$3.50 and promptly furnished. 1t was
probably salve for the mayors
wounded feelings to have his news
paper critic jerked up by the minions
of the law, but the salye changed
hands on election day, when the
prosecutor was defeated by an even
two dozen majority. 1t seems evi-
dent that in this little ruction the
editor laughs best, for he laughs
