Many a case supposed to be radical lung
disease is really one of liver complaint and
Indigestion, but, unless that diseased liver
can be restored to healthy action, it will so
bring on their speedy decay, and then in

ENcn&nge.
As an impression seems TO prevail
in this parish that the Police Jury
cannot enforce road ordinance
which prescribes that the Individual
citizen must work on the public road,
OF pay a fine for his failure to do SO,
we have taken the trouble of eonsnlt-
ing the decisions of our Supreme
Court on the subject, and we here
with present the result of our investi-
cations in that quarter.
The decision we shall cite is found
reported in so An. page 1923, and is
entitled, Parish of St. Martin OK rel
Baker VS.. Deiahoussaye. The opin-
ion OF the court was delivered by
Manning, Chief Justice, and is in
these words:
"The defendant was summoned to
work on the public roads of St. Mar
tin parish, and having refused, in
CURED fine of one dollar for each
day that he failed to obey the sum
mons. The overseer of the road sued
him for four dollars, the fines as many
days of delinquency.
The defendant pleaded a general
denial, and the ''uneonstitutionality of
the tax levied upon him." furnished
written reasons for judgment which
begin by properly reciting that the
action is for the recovery of five dol-
lars for failure or fines for having re-
fused to work on the roads. but con-
clude by ruling that the ordinance of
the police jury, imposing the fines,
levies n direct tax upon the people,
and is therefore unconstitutional.
The justice is in error. Police juries
are authorized to pass all ordinances
relative to roads. and 10 IMPOSE SUCH
FINES AND PENALTIES TO ENFORCE
THEM AS THEY MAY THINK PROPER, and
then these fines may be enforced by
ordinary process in the name of the
Police Jury. Rev. Stats. Sec, 1864.
The Police Jury Of ST. Martin pass
ed an ordinance requiring persons
between certain ages to work on the
public roads, and imposed i fine Of
one dollar for each day of failure to
work when required. The defendant
incurred the penalty denounced by
the ordinance, after having been only
summoned, and HE MIST PAY FOR HIS
DERELICTIoN OF PUBLIC DUTY.
One OF the surest tests of the civ
iliEation of country is the condition
of its public roads. Years ago, at the
termination OF that period when able
bodied men were needed elsewhere
than at home, there was good excuse
for impossible roads. but there Is no
I good reason now why those who are
liable to road duty should not be
made TO contribute part OF their
time and labor to relieve the country
from the reproach Of having high
ways which are q danger TO a Traveller,
and an obstruction to those vino have
10 transport produce over them"
7 The court condemned the defendant
to pay the fine imposed by the parish
OF St, Martin. and all COSTS OF the
lower rourt and of the appeal.
/ In view OF the strong. clear and ex,
plicit language employed by the Su,
preme Court in the quoted case, it is
not worth while for any one to dis,
pute the power and authority of Police
Juries over the public roads. Hence
inspectors need not fear the enforcing
OF the ordinances adopted by the
Police Jury of this parish on the sub
iect of public roads,

Some time ago the Echo proposed
TO grant its columns to the interest Of

Such q measure should be heartily

without which, contemplate ignorance

tered the Dormant cells Of intellectual

certainly exists. No organisation can

ncsday evening last, at AS, brings e
d close the long, useful and eveDtful
fife of one Of our most honored and
respected citizens. The shock felt
Throughout the Nation fell like q
ithunderbolt rs The wires flashed the
4 sad news over our land. Not word
81 warning had we of the fearful loss
which the nation would soon be called
upon to mourn. He had complained
some since his return from Chicago
on last Saturday, but it was not sup
posed that he was seriously i'll; his
family physician, DR.. w. c. Thompl
son was called in to sec him several
different times and each time sue
sceeded in giving his patient relief,
but Just before noon on Wednesday,
he was taken suddenly worse and HE
physician was hastily summoned, who
Aagain brought relief to the sufferer,
and Mr.. Hendricks said he felt much
better, so much SO, that the Doctor
did not think il necessary to remain
and left him in care of Mrs. Hendricks,
Harry Morgan, his nephew and q
domestic. At $50 Mrs. Hendricks
answered a caller and spent some
twenty minutes ont of the room,
1.-The servant also went out, leaving the
patient alone with his nephew, Harry
Morgan. Mr.. Hendricks seemed to be
lin extreme pain about this time al
though q return of the paroxysm,
8 which had been troubling him at en-.
terrals were about to return and tossed
uneasiiy upon his bed, but speedy
fatal relief came, and he exclaimed
10 his nephew: al am free at last
send for Eliza" and these were bis
last words. The young man failing
70 realize the Importance of the snf
ferer's words, did not summon Mrs
Hendricks Immediately and when she
came into the room few minute.
later, she found that he had quietly
passed away.
In the death of Mr.. Hendricks, the
Democracy loses one of its most ar
dent supporters, one who has beer
identified with the party for forty
hong wears, and during which time he
has been faithful to every trust, He
will be missed in the Council Halls Of
1.-THE nation, he will be missed by the
President and his cabinet. he will be
missed for his loyalty to his adopted
State, he will be missed in the sweet,
AsOcial circle. But Oh! how he viii be
