Betitie1 Of Citizens of Ward 2 to
Police Jury of Bossier Parish.

To the Honorable President and
Members Of the Police Jary of the
Parish Of Booster: We, the under.
signed citizens and landed proprie-
tors of Bossier parish, respectfully
call your attention to the heavy and
unnecessary burden imposed upon
US by the present fence and stock
laws, and earnestly potion a modifi-
cation of the same.
Act 55 of the session sof 1880 le-
galizes barb.wire fence as fence
material, and authorizes the Police
Juries to designate the manner in
which it shall be used in their re.
spectiye parishes, or any portion
thereof. Under authority of that
act we request the passage of an or
dinance authorizing us to enclose
our lands under one general fence,
or each one bis own lands, with
fence constructed with three barb
wires, tightly stretched and fasten.
ed to posts every Is feet apart, with
good and substantial gates on all
public roads. Your petitioners,
while they do not object to the pas
sage of a similar ordinance, applica-
BILE to the entire parish, do not ask
for it. We are merely asking relief
for ourselves from a burden we feel
no longer able to bear. We can
make no stronger argument, or ap-
peal, in favor of the ordinance asked
for, than the following facts and
figures submitted for your consider
alton.

The conditions of life seem very
unequal, are very unequal. There
is very often to our human seeing
no reason why one should be pros
pered while his neighbor is in adver-
sity. There is no reason on the
surface why honesty, ability, indus
try, should not bring equal rewards;
but they do not. 1t very often seems
that the harder one works, the hard
er he may work, and the more self
sacrificing he is, the more selfsacri-
ficing be may be. There is no ex-
PLANTATION to it all on any human
grounds, and in the face of the dire
puzzle it is often very hard to hold
fast ones faith in Providence. And
yet hold fast our faith we must, or
yield to dispair. Gods plan is
larger than our human seeing. He
has ends to accomplish Of which we
know nothing, and his ends are al
ways good, and good we shall see
them to be by and-by. In the mean.
time our true course is, holding fast
our faith in Infinite Goodness, to
stand in our lot.-C Christians WeekIy.

"County roads have not kept pace
with national developments in other
respects, and the day is not far dis
tant when the subject must be taken
up in earnest and system inaugu-
rated By which what is expended
upon them one year is not entirely
dissipated before the next year
comes around. The question has
