4 Sign Of Better Times,

When every body is hoping for the
return of better times, each straw that
shows the wind TO be blowing from
that qraIter. is worthy IF specia! no
tice. There is TO barometer so relia-
BILE as the demand for goods. Noboty
buys stock for fun or for appearances.
Our advertisers, The Charles (.
Hires Company, of Philadelphia, trau-
sact business over a very wide field,
dealing in every city, sowu, village
and crossroads i'll the county. They
report that the sales of Hires Root
beer so far this season are very much
in excess of The same period last year.
When it is remembered that their an
nual sales have before this reached
the enormous total Of 2,SS0,27S pack
ages, which, equals more than a gallon
for every family in the country, it
would seem at first thought that there
is little room: for further growth.
Thirst for it. however, seems to be
universal. as this years report shows
a very large gain, indicating that ere
long the person who does not drink
Hires Rootbeer will be somewhat of a
curiosity.
No temperance beverage fas eve
anywhere nearly approached Hires
RoOtbeer in popularity. It's wonder
ful success can be accounted for only
on the ground that it is just what tile
manufacturers clainl-an honest ex-
tract Of natures most healthful roots.
which slakes thirst, improves health.
ami pleases every member of the fam
ily. Its remarkable sale certainly
! proves that millions enjoy Hires Root
beer.

SATURDAY JUNE , 1874.
THE WATER WORKS.

Through a petition numerouslv and
enthusiastically sigDed y the citizens
of the town of Thibodaux. and through
an ordinance passed at tile last sitting
of our town council, the property tax
payers of the town of Thibodaux,
qualified TO vote under the laws of
Louisiana, are called upon 70 vote at
. snecial election TO be held in the
towr of Thibodanx at the Court House,
on Monday June 18th, 1894, from Z
O'Clock a. III. TO 8 o'clock p. IN. for the
purpose of ascertaining the sense OF
the said property taxpayers III regard
to the construction and maintainance
of a system of w~aterworks within the
corporate limits of our town. and in
regard to the levying Of a special tax
of five mills per anDum over and above
the constitutional limit of ten mills fci
and during the period of ten yeats to
defray the expenses of putting up said
waterworks plant.
This system of waterwolks has been
a long felt want in orr town, and
nothing less than the last fire that
occurred on Jackson St. . couple of
weeks ago, has shown more than ever
the urgent and absolute necessity Of
erecting said plant; without water IT
is impossible TO arrest the terrible de-
vastations of the fire-fiend. however
we'll disposed the firemeD may be to
do their duty, as was evidenced by
the last fire. for no one who was
present can vouchsafe the assertion
that had there been a suficiency of
water, Mrs. Wlisht's house would not
have been saved ; we assert that with
sufficient water, the said honse would
have been saved intact.
We hear it stated that some parties,
I've do not know who they are. no
have we tried TO find ont aud do MOI
care to know are trying to have the
citizens of the ear portions of oul
town believe that this system of
water works will only be erected fol
the use of the business locality Of oui
town, say four or five blocks from Lev.
ee ST., aud that other citizens will dc.
rive no benefit therefrom.
In order to disabuse the minds q
those who might believe these falls,
IGmors, and i'll order that each either
may vote intelligeDtly upon this vita
question, we would refer linn to til.
petition and the ordinance passed b,
the Town Council to that effect. TIL,
system of waterworks contemplated
will be built to supply water With.
the entire corporate limits OF the town
and thus afford protection to AL ;
system of pipe mains will oe So con
