State Superintendent Calhoun has made!
the first apportionment for the public schools.
It is the largest on rertord. Lafourche with
its 9.396 edneable children receives out of the
apportionment fund the sum of $5.167.h0.
The assessment rolls of this parish show
that there are only 27 negroes who are over
21 years of age owning property amounting:
to not less than $3tv-, and who by reason of!
this fact are entit!e4 to register and vote at
all elections.
The Baton Rouge Truth says that the
deeds of c uelty practiced on the Phillipines,
a people struggling for liberty as did our
forefathers, should cause a blush of shame to
mantle the cheek of every American who
loves honesty and fair play.
The following well deserved compliment
was paid our honored and much esteemed
State Senator by the Capitolian Advocate:
Senator Will H. Price of Lafourche,
handsome as a prince, courteous as a Chester
field and genial as the typical Southern gen
tleman that lie is, was a visitor at the Capital
yesterday.
The Missionary a monthly Journal says,
that though martyrdom by the pcaffold of
the sword be past, there are other martyr
doms to be suffered. There is the martyrdom
of charity in the pestilence, the martyrdom
of seal in wearing out life and strength for
the souls of men: there is the martyrdom of a
will prompt and ready for life or death in be
half of the truth and the Church.
The Lafayette Gazette in comment
ing on a bill recently passed by congress
which carried with it an appropriation of
$40,000 to entertain Prince Henry, of Ger
many, who will soon visit this country says,
that it is a damnable outrage to squander
WO.(A)0 of the people's money to pay ob sequi
ous homage to a man because he happens to
be a brother of the Emperor of Germany.
A FITTING RECOGNITION.
Ir. J. L. M. Curry, connected with the
Peabody and other educational funds, and
well known to the people of this State, has
been appointed special envoy extraordinary
and minister plenipotentiary to represent
this country at the coming of age of the King
of Spain. Dr. Curry was minister to Spain
at the time of the birth of the young King
and it is interesting to hear him relate of the
custom prevailing in that old world nation
when an heir to the throne is born.
The President oould not have appointed
a better or more able man, and it will be gra
tifying to Dr. Curryto return to Spain on
such an occasion. He served our country
well as our representative at the court of
Spain and the appointment is a fitting recog
nition of the past services of this truly good
man.
EXCELLENT ADVICE.
The people of our State are continually
wondering how it is that Crowley is making
such unparalleled strides in the field of pro
greess, but if the following which is taken
from the Crowley Signal ls carefully read
more light will probably be thrown upon the
matter. Hear this excellent advice:
Crowleyites should make it a practice
when traveling never to misse an opportunity
to put in a good word for the town. Talk
Crowley on the trains, on the streets, in the
botel lobbies, be interviewed and dont be
afraid of saying too much, as Acadia parish
and Southwest Louisiana haven't a peer in
the whole United State. Talk Crowley to
everyone, everywhere, all the time.
The people of Thibodanx should profit
by thin advice. We have many reasons to
feel proud of our town and want of words
on part of our people should never be lacking
whenever the occasion presents itself. Few
parishes in the State can compare with La
fourche and few towns with Thibodaux in
wealth, resources and advantages; none can
excel our population in intelligence hospital
Ity, and enterprise so we should talk Thibo
daux on the trains, on the streets, to every
one, everherywher and all the time.
GIVE US YOUR A ll).
The SEn-TTEL is devoted to the beet in
terests of the community in which it is pub
lished. To build up and advance the ma
terial prosperity of Lafourche parish will be
its constant aim. Whatever is published in
these columns, we wish it to be distinctly
understood. is done, "with charity to all. and
malice to-wards none." While the SErnT1Fn
will discuss political questions as it is the
duty of every public journal, and while our
utterances will always be heard without
doubtful meaning. we wish to subordinate
these political issues to those nearer t!he
heart of our people : the material enhance
ment. industrial, commercial and agricultur
al. of our great parish.
To accomplish our work we need the
co-operation of our peplle. Correspondence
from every section of our parish is solicited.
We want to publish everything that tran
spires of interest and advocate every move
ment that hat has a tendency to improve and
I better our condition.
Give us your aid, seriously and actively.
Sand we will make old Lafourche boom with
prosperity from centre to circumference.
Send us your items of news, disclose to
us your projects, subscribe to and advertise
in the SE.rIxEL and you will see how well it
pays to aid a worthy enterprise.
United we are strong and can accomplish
a great deal. The SENTINE-L is not published
for us alone but for the peopl-, whose zealous
champion of their rights it will ever be fud
der or no fodder.
A WORTHY CAUSE.
Our esteemed contemporary, the St Ber
nard Voice, is "striking telling blows" in be
half of the cause of public education. Al
ways zealous in the advocacy of whatever
will redound to the people of the section in
which it is published, it upholds to-day a
movement started in St. Bernard to build
public school houses. The step taken by the
citizens of our sister parish should be imitat-,
ed by other parishes. When money is the
great desideratum to conduct our free schools
the citizen cannot employ his funds more ad
vantageously than to aid in building and
rendering effective the public school system.
Every locality desiring a school should offer
the School Board at least the house to teach!
in. It would cost but a few dollars to each
family and would show that spirit of enter-i
prise and go-aheaditivenees which is so de
sirable to be found in every American com-,
munity. The free school is to educate the
masses-to prepare them for society and citi
zenship-and as Dr. Alderman, of Tulane
University, very properly says, "is as much
for all as the electric light, water works and
parks." He who neglects the cause of educa
tion does himself and his country a great in
justice.
We cannot express it more forcibly and
appropriately than in the words of the Voiace,
which says:
Public education is one of the most im
portant questions which can be considered
by a civilized, intelligent and progressive
people. In fact, the condition and standing
Iof a community is measured by the advan
Stages which it offers for educating its chil
dren. Upon education depends the future of
any place on the globe-whether it will be
peaceful, prosperous and progressive, or
whether it will retrograde and do justice to
the days in the dark ages. The relation
which education bears to government indivi
dual well-being and general advancement is
too evident to require expatiation. No peo
ple are capable of self-government who do
not possess the blessings of education. They
are unfit to govern themselves, because they
do not have the very first qualification-the
ability to judge and know what is good and I
best for them.
Some of the country papers of Louisiana
are still harping on the gubanatorial ques
tion. Why this should be troubling them to
such a considerable extent is beyond our
Scomprehension. We do not believe that the
agitating of political questions a year or two
ahead of time will prove injurious to the peo
pie, but we rather think that such discus
sions are too premature as we once had oc
casion to say editorially a few weeks ago.
A question "causing much discussion"
at Washington is whether Special Ambassa
dor Whitelaw Beid, the civic representative
of this austere Democracy at the coronation
of King Edward of England, shall or shall
t not wear knee-breeches, says the New York
SJournal. It is fitting that the large minds
responsible for the sending of the embassy
Sshould oonoern themselves with this vital
J matter. It is also natural that the bead of
r cold perspiration should glisten on their ma
- jeetic foreheade. The agony of uncertainty
Sis far harder to bear than any decision can
be. In our judgment, however, there is no
'just ground for this painful auxiety at the
I republic's capital. Edward VII is a gracious
monarch, and if properly approached there is
every reason to believe that he will consent
' to the appearance of Mr. Reid at the corona
tion without his trouers.--T-D.
