TUB LOUISIANA PLAN.
The northern republican congress
men who wont down to the Third con
gressional district of Louisiana to assist
the republicans there in the recent
election for n member of congress , had
an interesting experience ) of the demo
cratic method of campaign in thntquar-
tor. Tlioro Is really nothing very new
In what they saw nnd hoard , for south
ern democratic Intimidation and violence -
lonco nro repeated at almost ovary , ,
election , but it Is none the loss
Important that this latest evidence
donco of the spirit and meth
ods of the southern ( democracy shall
receive tho.wildest publicity. It is do-
slrablo that the country shall bo given
the fullest possible Information as to the
way in which citizens are doprlvod of
their constitutional rights in the south ,
and the rule of the minority is main
tained In localities of that section by
moans of the revolver and bludgeon.
One of the visiting congressmen to
Louisiana is Mr. Rowoll , of Illinois , and
in npublishcd interview that gentleman
gives some of his experiences in
the Third district of that stato.
Personally ho nnd his associates
were well treated , but they immedi
ately discovered that their errand was
u hopolcss one timl that republican do-
font , although the republicans are in n
majority in the district , was certain.
This was duo to the fact that the demo
cratic regulators were thoroughly or
ganized and were actively prosecuting
their work of terrorizing the colored
voters. It la the testimony of Mr.
Ilowoll that in numerous parishes
these voters were bolng whipped
nnd otherwise intimidated , while
the democratic speakers were
persistent In inllaming public
Rontiinont on the race issue , Mr.
Rowoll saw , the lacerated body of the
colored United States supervisor , who
had boon brutally whipped by the reg
ulators , and ho states that ho was in
Franklin when a colored man was
whipped by regulators for distributing
republican tickets among the colored
voters. There were daily reports of sim
ilar occurrences from the bulldozed par
ishes. Almost every white demo
crat carried a revolver , and the
shooting of Jacobs , the white re
publican deputy sheriff , was
done , Mr. Rowoll says , simply because
ho was attending to his duties as a
sworn officer of the law and endeavor
ing to protect voters in their rights.
Such.was the condition of affairs that
enabled a democratic minority to elect
its candidate to congress by about llvo
thousand votes over the republican can
didate. It is but one of numerous ex
amples supplied by congressional elec
tions in the south , suggesting and giv
ing warrant to the demand that there
shall bo legislation looking to the
prevention of such wrongs against the
whole people and such violence to our
political system. It is experience like
this in Louisiana that will sooner or
later compel the most conservative to
agree to a course on the part of the
government that will at least iuaura
the rights ol the majority in the elec
tion of representatives in congress. It
may not bo possible to solve the race
problem by legislation. The preju
dices of men may bo curbed
and restrainedby law , but
they can not be removed. There
is the power in the govern
ment , however , to compel obedience to
its laws or punish those who will not
obey , and if it is to stand without im
pairment of its functions and its au
thority , without losing the confidence
of the pe'oplo in its ability to protect
them , without a surrender of national
sovereignty , such outrages as these in
Louisiana cannot much longer bo
tolerated.
THE SCHOOL TEACirEllS1 MECCA.
The disposition of certain members
of the board of education toward fur
ther extravagance in the matter of sal
aries crops out at nearly every mooting.
Omaha touchers are boiler paid than
nine-tenths of the class in the country ,
and they always have boon especially
'favored in the matter of light labor
and pleasant surroundings. Tliis city
is regarded as the school teachers' '
Mecca by psople all over the east , and
competent instructors can bo obtained
for the asking who will bo glad to
accept half the money now paid present
incumbents. Still there seems to bo a
continual agitation on the salary matter -
tor which speaks exceedingly ill for
certain members of the board.
In Wisconsin , Michigan , Illinois ,
Missouri , Iowa and in fact all western
and northwestern states it is entirely
safe to estimate that the salaries , as a
rule , are at least from twenty-five to
forty per cent below these paid hero.
The regular salary list for the high
school proper is twenty-six thousand
dollars a year. No similar institution
in the United -States pays auch an
amount of money to the number of
touchers engaged in regular school
duties.vln this statement regard is had
to the olllcioncy and number of the
touchers employed. Tlioro are four
hundred and sovonty-llvo pupils in the
high school , and U is Bitfo to say that'
each ono costs the city fifty-five dollars a
year for tuition. This amount is Inrgor
than that paid in many of the loading
colleges of the oust.
Tlioro is not the slightest nocotnify
for the board to oven contemplate n
further Increase of pay for any lonelier ,
whether regularly or specially em
ployed.
TUB TmiASURY CEXTKNAltY.
Ono hundred years ago to-day the
United States treasury department was
organized , Alexander Hamilton , thu
first secretary , having boon appointed
by President Washington September
11 , 1789 , nine days uftor the act' creating
the olllco passed congress. This act
created also the olllcos of assistant sec
retary , controller , register , auditor and
troiiburor , The task which Hamilton ,
still u young man , assumed , was u most
important nnd dltllcult ono , The
financial affairs of the govern
ment were in an embarrassed
and badly mixed condition , the busi
ness affairs of the country , though re
covering from the effects of the war ,
were far from being prosperous , and
the national credit was extremely low ,
The exigency demanded the highest
order of financial ability , and no ap
pointment over innao by Washington
bolter1 demonstrated hla shrewd judg
ment of men than that ot Alexander
Hamilton as secretary of the treasury
department at Its organization. Having
shown himself a statesman of the
highest powers and a man of excel
lent military qualifications , Ham
ilton showed In this now capacity ability
ns n financier which soon attracted the
attention of the world , and which car
ried the country safely through the try
ing oxlgoncy. In this position ho estab
lished a fame which is still undltnmod
iind took rank with the greatest masters -
tors of the science of finance the world
has produced.
It is said that no department of the
government with the cxcoption of the
postolllco department , grow BO
rapidly as the treasury depart
ment , And the most casual
comparison of the operations of the
treasury department now with ono hun
dred years ago will easily show this to
bo the fact. Something in the nnturo
of a celebration ot the centenary of the
organization of this grunt department
will bo hold by Its present ofllcinls and
employes , and it will bo a Very appro
priate thing to do. '
MUOU ADOAUOUT
The newspapers which have boon
making so much ado about the appar
ent increase of the public debt during
July and August will bo likely to find
in the simple and sufficient explanation
of the secretary of the treasury reason
to regret their hasty criticisms and
conclusions.
The fact is that the debt was largely
reduced during the first two months of
the currant fiscal year , the reduc
tion , according to the secretary
of the treasury , amounting to
more than throe tlmos that for
the same months of last year , or in
round numbers twonty-ono million del
lars. The form of treasury statement
now in ado by tno department gives the
amount of debt loss the cash in the
troasuryand , ns the secretary explains ,
any incrouso of cash in the treasury
shows an apparent increase of the debt ,
and disbursements for any purpose
other than the purchase of bonds at par
value show an apparent increase equal
to the amount of such disbursements.
Equally satisfactory and sulflcient is
the explanation of the secretary of the
treasury regarding the increase in dis
bursements for J.uly and August over
the same months last year , which , with
the increase in the amount of premium
paid on bonds' for the sinking fund as
compared with last year , the purchase
of bonds having been much larger , ap
pear to have increased the debt , while
in reality having nothing to do with it.
In a word , the operations of the treasury
for the first two months of the present
fiscal year inulto a bettor showing in all
respects than these of a like period lost
year.
It is not easy to see how the news
papers which have boon making this
matter a text for criticizing the treas
ury and the administration can avoid
acknowledging that in their eager desire
sireto find fault they have misled their
readers nnd done an injustice which
thov might easily have avoided. It is
to bo expected , however , that such of
thorn as have not the manliness
and honesty to make such an ac
knowledgment will endeavor by
distorting the facts to justify
their misrepresentation. The simple
truth is , that the administration of the
treasury thus far has been capable ,
conservative and satisfactory to the
country , and all attempts to make po
litical capital out of it against the ad
ministration must fail. There has boon
shown a proper concern for the finan
cial interests of the country at the
same time that the interests of the
government were adequately guarded ,
nnd there is no reason to apprehend
that this policy will not bo maintained.
TUB Johnstown disaster , in which
thousands of lives were lost , is becom
ing nn almost torgotton incident of the
past , while the Cronin murder , which
occurred at n previous date , and
wherein one man was mysteriously removed -
moved , is still the sensation of the
hour. This would indicate that it is
not the magnitude of a disaster or deed
that gives it an abiding place in the
minds of the people , but rather the
manner in which it occurs , and more
than all else , the mystery which may
attach to it. It is an inherent charac
teristic of human nnturo to find out
what it does not know , and to uttampt
to solve problems that seem Incapable
of solution. The possibility of an
exhaustive research being rewarded
by bringing punishment upon some
one , as will possibly bo the re
sult in the Cronlii case , is a
strong additional incentive to leave
nothing' undone whereby a mystery
maybe cleared up. The truthfulness
of the saying that "murder will out"
has come to bo almost unquestioned.
The whole world is against him who
takes the Hfo of another , and It may bo.
safely stated that but few man who
commit murder succeed in wholly cov
ering up their crime for a great length
of time.
Tins addition of Colonel John A.
Coukorill's name to the world's fair
committee of Now York indicates that
the metropolis is awakening to the fact
that something bos'.ues money will bo
required to make the fair a success , As
Colonel Cookerill has boon aolo during
the past fifteen yca'rs to transform the
Cincinnati JSnquhcr , the Baltimore
.Sun , the St. Louis J'ott-Dispatch nnd
the Now York World from obscurity
and linanclal bankruptcy into great
and valuable papers , it is at once ap
parent that his brains can help out
New York ns no other , man's could.
Western men like Mr. Cockorill take u
leading position wherever they may lo-
cuto. As u newspaper man Mr. Cock
orill stands unrivaled , and ono who is a
success in this line need have no fear in
grappling with a world's fain , or for
that matter with anything else.
Tun Importiiuco of the ton-hour sys
tem which has boon put into olToct at
the Union Pacific shops is by no moans
incoiiBtdoniblo. The increase of time
will add nearly thirteen thousand per
month to the pay-roll of the nine hun
dred 111011 which it affects. Tula In
crease in tho.ftvolumo of money which
will bo disbursed almost wholly within
the city wllV'q'Utckon ' the local business

laborers wh6 receive the direct benefits
of the Increased hours and pay , form an
Important factor In Oumhi's best clt-
Izonahlp , awT any movement that tends
to Improve ihoir , conditions and add to
thulr peed fortunes la most sincerely
welcomed by'fjll classes.
THE report now current that the pres
ident will suggest in his message to the
next congress an abolishment of the in
ternal revenue system of the country
cannot bo true. Taxes from this source
amount to about $130,000,000 a year and
could not wholly bo spared from the
finances of the country. Authorities
on the subject Bay that'no moro than
$75,000,000 a year could bo dispensed
with from the revenues. There are both
democrats and republicans who favor
the abolition of taxes on tobacco , which
produces $30,000,000 a year. Other re
ductions could bo made which would
bring the amount up to the limit of
875,000,000.
It is more than likely the .president
does not contemplate a moro radical
change than is hare indicated , although
southern people would bo especially
pleased were ho to recommend the
abolition of the whole system.
THE B. & M's extension from
Alllanco into the coal Holds _ ot
custom Wyoming will not stop
there. The Indications point to a move
in the direction of the Black Hills.
Rapid City is probably the prospective
point for the present. Where the road
will next push forward will depend
largely on circumstances. The opening
of the Sioux reservation and ltd early
settlement promise a wldo field for the
Burlington's ontorpriso. It is quite
likely tlmt the road will take advantage
of the opportunity , and by extending
foo'dors through this section supply it
with coal from eastern Wyoming , as
well as share in the general traffic.
Tim Now Orleans Times-Democrat has
recently printed reports on the condi
tion of crops in all of the southern
states. The yield of corn will bo un
usually larco and the rice crop of Geor
gia as well as that of North and South
Carolina will bo nearly up to the aver
age. In other portions of the south ,
however , thord seems to bo a general
falling oil , notjonly in the rico crop ,
but the cane crop as well. Taking ono
section with another , a fair general crop

cial situation \yill not bo materially

JOHN L. StTfytiiVAN ia located in what
'
la known as the' "Pat Collins" district
of Boston. I fc lids a reliable democratic
majority of 7,0.00 , and there is a disposi
tion on the partof Irishmenof whom the
district is largely made up , to run Sul
livan for congress. It is therefore mani
fest that Sullivairs declaration of inten
tion was not made wholly without
sagacity , and it may bo that the na
tional halls , which in ancient days re
sounded only to the tread of great
men , will receive ono more of the
curiosities in statesmonship so fre
quently found there in those days.
IT takes West Virginia democrats a
long time to count Governor Goff out.
The aloction took place ton months
sfnio , and Goff was entitled to his seat
six months ago , but the counting of the
vote is not j-et finished. Average dem
ocrats are poor figurors , except on
counting out , where they capture the
palm. If they have to take ton months
to do it in the case of West Virginia ,
it is probable that thn state is really
very largely republican.
CAIU/EQKAMS give considerable prom

these two belligerent nations lay no
plans to got up a military spectacle that
will in any degree lesson the universal
interest in our world's fair.

Another straw has been laid upon the
camel's ' back by the local managers of the
11. & M. The caucus of Thursday was but a
ropotltion of what has boon witnessed before
by our long suffering people when the polit
ical plans of Mr. Campbell in regard to seine
petty precincts or school district oulcial
needed to bo satisfied. This tlino it took the
form of opposition to our present ofllcicnt
sheriff , W. O. Hussolt , who had in some man
ner Incurred Mr. CampOotl's enmity , and con
sequently the round house nnd gravel train
must bo called Into requisition to consummate
the defeat of his delegates in the caucus.
Ono hundred ana fifteen men were voted in
an unbroken line , bnlng obliged to pass
through an alloy way formed by Harmon
and Archibald on ono sldo and Rogers and
Uankson on the ether , and under the eye of
these ofiluials they deposited their oallot.
Blame not these toilers for the doed. Tnoy
had wlfo and babies at home , and winter Is
not far oft. While inwardly they rebelled
against the indlgnitv , the thought of dear
ones at homo impelled thorn to submit. Ono
fine specimen of mental aua physical man
hood was especially brought to our notice.
Ho had expressed lilmself as Russell's ' friend.
Ho was sent for at once nnd ordered to vote
"right , " and as ho approached the polls in
charge of an oflloial he tendered the ballot

allow us to cheese our owa school directors

being created every year to the road that
should claim us all as friends , and would dose
so If such spectacles ns this could bo forever
banished. When will the day cornel

toTnn Uun.1 Father Sen ton no , of Notre
Dame , has Issued n pastoral denouncing the
Knights ot Labor nnd labor day. The lat
ter , ho says , was for the hotul of the
church to condemn. Labor day , In its pres
ent shape , was nothing moro than a revival
of paganism , and was similar to the fotoa
organized during the French revolution ,
when the Goddess of Liberty was the supreme
premo ruler and God nnd religion were ban
ished. Catholics could not too strongly con
demn sucn celebrations , devoid , as they
wore , of the religious aspect which should
accompany them. There was nn invading
spirit tending to murk such events of a
purely lay character which should and must
bo stemmed ere it wont too fur. If they
began by arbor day nnd then wont to labor
day , they would soon llnd tlmt religion
would be ( Mivlrolv banished from the gatnor-
Ings of the piiollc.
