Picayune: A most extraordinary story
comes from Boise City, Idaho, which Is
said 10 be well authenticated, 1t says
that while three travellers were at the
upper end of Lake Chelsn recently one
of Them went into the water to bathe.
He was seized by the foot by marine
monster and was being pulled into deep
water. when his screams attracted the
attention of his companions. who came
TO his rescue. They pulled him ashore,
the monster hanging to his foot. lt had
legs and body like au alligator and the
head and the eyes of n serpent. Between
its fore hind legs were large ribbed wings.
The men tried hard to tear the monster
from the foot of their companion, and
finally tried fire; which had The effect OF
causing the amman to rise suddenly into
the air, taking its victim along, am
finally landing in the lake, where both
disappeared from sight.
Great guns! Take the cake and
say no more.

|MOORINGSPORT FERRY.
>tJEER ACTION OF THE POLICE
JURY,
To Be Denominated Fair and just


Within the past two years the po-
lice Jury of Caddo parish has had
made two boats for the Mooringsport
Ferry. at a cost of $1,000. To this it
pays annually $500 for ferryman.
Besides this, it pays every dollar of
|expense necessary to keep the ferry
lin operation, even to the cost OF al
|oar or a pound of nails, and yet re-
|ceiyes not a cent of revenue there
from. In ether words, not only is
1.-THE ferriage there free, to the
|neighborhood which uses it, but the
tax payers of Shreveport, the Fourth
| and other wards which have no inter
lest in it whatever, must help pay for
the indulgence of this luxury by
|tbose favored few. And this is no
doubt what the police jury will de-
nominate justice and fairness, and an
Impartial administration of public
|affairs. If that be its ideas of equal
rights and fair play, then it IS re-
spectfully requested to right about
face. and treat the matter fIom an un-
fair standpoint.
We are glad to know, however,
hhat the opinions of Messrs. r.
Youree and W. +. Taylor agree with
ours on this point They think, with
THE PRoGREss, that those who use the
ferry should at least pay sufficient
amount of ferriage to defray the run
ming expenses thereof. We say that
it is unjust, unfair and absolutely
wrong for tho police jury to entail
such an expense on the parish for
the accommodation of limited few
The citizens of the town pay sutfi-
Client amount of the general tax
now goodness knows, and we fail tC
bee any other right, than a physical
one, Of the police jury to place thu
additional burden on them. Public
offices is indeed public trust" ant
the police jury should remember tha
when it is dealing with public ques
lions. 1t seems not to have done 81
in connection with this Mooringspor
ferry matter, though the voices o
AIessrs. Taylor and Youree were con
stantly raised as reminder.
Action in this was deferred unit
the next regular meeting and in tn
meantime we hope that every mem
ber of the jury will think over tn
matter, consider the injustice OF 1t 8
it is now operated and relieve th
general taxpayer of the burden
paying for a privilege which is exc
cised 10y comparative tew.
We understand that Messrs. Taylo
and Youree submitted propositio
to the interested friends of the mea
ure to furnish boats, but for the In
uria.ors to fix such fee as would
sufficient to pay all the cost and e
pense of operating the ferry. This
certainly a fair proposition, and al
other that will entail greater expen
on the parish, could hardly be
charitably construed.
We hope the other members OF I'll
body Will give the matter the serio
consideration its Importance deserv
and then act in a fair and just ma
ner to the parish at large.

WHICH DO YOU WANT :?
Is 1t a Nice Present For Your
Wife?

The above is natural query at
this particular time. Christmas will
soon be here and every good hus-
band who can afford it, wants to make
his wife a present. As a general
thing the most difficult part about
this, is to determine what to get that
will be suitable. For the benefit of
those who are in this dilemma we
would advise them to go around to
Ben Holzman's
and get one of those nice dress pat
terms which he is selling SO cheap.
If not this, then a good wrap; and if
not this, then ask some of the lady
saleswomen there to show you
through the big stock of notions and
oddities which attract and tempt a
lady's fancy and then the trouble
will be at an end.
Ben Holman
has the presents and he will sell them
cheap. He bought them so that they
could be sold low down, therefore
don't fail to examine bis goods when
you start ont on your shopping voy-
age.
Bargains, Cheap Bargains,
will be the order of the day at Holz
mans, commencing

Lake Charles Americans: One OF our
State exchanges broke loose last week
for ballot reform. 1t strikes us that he
had better wait until about time for the
Legislature 10 meet and then fire the
shot. In the meantime he might get in
some good work for immigration to his
parish.
Ballot reform is an immigration
measure and until we can assure cor
rection in this matter we need not ex-
pect immigration. We don't know
how how elections are manipulated
in Southern Louisiana, but in our
part of the State, we need remedial
measures and very strong ones on
this line. SO if the exchange noted
has its home in North Louisiana it
was certainly talking for immigration
when it spoke ont for ballot reform.
