THE PUBLIC ROADS.

1t seems that by this time the
police jury ought to be convinced
that the present system of work
ing the public roads is a farce
that under that system they can
never accomplish any good result.
After reading and studying for
q while the necessity and import
ance of good roads to any commit
nifty. and the methods of working
public roads, we have come to the
conclusion, that the only way pos
sible to secure the construction
and maintenance of good roads,
is by contracting with a person
whose business it will be to work
the roads with improved machi-
merry at 80 much mile.
Let the police jury investigate
this plan and figure on the proba-
BILE cost of this system, they will
find that it will not cost large
sum of money per mile, and when
a road is once made by machine
work, it will last a long time, and
the maintenance thereafter will be
light.
We know of several parishes
who have adopted this system of
working their public roads with
satisfactory results. We would
suggest that the parish expert
ment on the road between st.
Martinville and Breaux Bridge.

THE LAKE ROAD AGAIN.

A gentleman who is large pro-
perty owner of st. Martlnville'
called Oh us this week and I'M
pressed on our mind, the great
benefit the town would derive If
we could secure the opening OF
the Lake Road, of which so much
has been said during the last few
years.
Last year a committee OF our
citizens investigated the matter
fully, and reported the approximate
cost of said road at between three
and four thousand dollars, which
was far beyond the amount that
could be realized by the commit
tee, and they we're consequently
forced to abandon the project.
The gentleman suggests, as the
only possible manner OF ever Sc
curing the opening of that road is
for the people of st. Martinville to
vote a special tax for that purpose,
with the help of the parish-he
believes it would materialize in a
short time.
People are generally not favora-
bly impressed with the idea of in
creasing their taxes, but some
times it is necessary to invest a
little money to get rich and bene-
cial rewards.
This matter is now open for dis
cussion, and we invite those who
are Interested to discuss it.
Our suggestion is this, If the
business of the section we seek is
sufficiently large to justify an ex-
penditure of four thousand dollars
for the opening of road OF only
a few milestone or two, we be-
lieve-that the parish pay half OF
the expenses and the town the
other half, if the property owners
are willing to tax themselves for
that purpose. This, we believe,
is the only way we can secure the
road.

A NEGRO LYNCHED.

A negro named Vance Mcclure
was hanged in the Jail at New
Iberia, at noon Monday last, by a
mob.
We take the following particu-
lars from New Iberia special to
the Times-Democrat: Some time
ago Miss Hawkins came here
from her home in Sturgeon,
Mo-, to visit her sister, Mrs. Aug.
Pascal. The climate agreed with
Miss Hawkins, and she decided to
remain until her health was resto-
red. Just to the rear of the Pas
cal residence is situated the back
lot to Mr.. John Broussard's sales
stable, on Julia street, were Nc
Clure WAS employed as keeper.
For several weeks he had been
seen providing around in a mystic
rious manner in the adjoining pre-
misses, but being we'll known by
the neighbors nothing was thought
of the matter until last Sunday
morning at 4 o'clock, when some
one attempted to break into the
Pascal residence, but was frigh-
tened off. Mcclure was suspect
ed. Friday Miss Hawkins was
taken suddenly i'll with nervous
troubles, and DR.. Hebert was call
ed in. There being no organic
trouble, the physician suspected
that she had suffered some severe
mental shock. Mrs. Pascal, by
urgent and continual questioning,
cleaned the fact that during the
Sunday night previous a negro
had gotten into Miss Hankins'
room and had attempted to cri-
minally assault her, but when he
found he could not accomplish
his purpose he choked her severe
ly and threatened to kill her #
she revealed his visit, and said
that he would come again, and if
necessary kill her. As he walked
away she recognized him as Nc
Clure. The threat caused her to
keep the matter squiet but the
fear of his return and the great
mental strain was too much, and
she told all. As soon as the facts
became known it was decided to
lynch Mcclure, but the officers
had already arrested him and had
him in Jail. Last night an at
tempt was made to secure the jail
keys, but Jailer Pointes suspected
something, and woke up Sheriff
Cade and Deputy Romero, who
came to the Jail, but they not hav-
ing the keys the mob dispersed.
To-Day at noon an organized body
of men carefully laid plans to fool
the officers. By some means they
secured duplicate keys, and while
officers were at dinner quietly
went to the Jail, opened the cage,
and taking Mcclure from it, hung
him to the gallery railing. Some
one turned in all alarm of fire, say
ing the Jail was burning. This
brought the officers to the Jail,
where they were overpowered un-
til the vengeance of the people
was complete. They were too
late to save the negro.

Railroad Commissioners Decisions.

The railroad commistio toner's were in SEES
sion Yesterday. Among the matters that
came up for decision was one relating to
erade crossing over the Canadian Pacific
Railroad in Township No. 4, at the or near
the station called Lakeview. This matter
was argued before the board q few weeks
ago by G. F. Woodland, Esq, of Bangor,
counsel for the railroad, and Hon. j. b.
Peaks for the county commissioners of Pts
cataquis county. The railroad wished to
ret the decision Of the county commission
ers establishing . grade crossing At that
place set aside and clai1 ed that the State
railroad commissioners had jurisdiction in
the case. On their petition it was brought
before the board, which decided yesterday
that the petitioner be given leave to with
draw on the ground that the crossing 70
located in an unincorporated township, ETC.,
and consequently the board of railroad
commissioners has not jurisdiction.
The railroad commissioners also decided
that the city of Westbrook be allowed to
extend Forest street in that city over the
tracks of the Maine Central 1t grade.
