The town council at a special
meeting Wednesday, has ordered
the purchase of car load of tile
to complete the drainage system
of the town. The council has also
ordered ten more street lamps.
The legal adviser and the
Secretary Treasurer of Iberia par
ish were here this week looking at
the system established by Mr.. Au-
gust Maraist in keeping the books
and accounts of st. Martin parish,
and having found Mr.. Maraist's
system good and correct one have
copied the form with the idea of
adopting the same system for her
ia parish. Mr.. Maraist's system
of keeping the accounts of the
parish is certainly a fine system,
and shows the expenditures of the
parish under each appropriation at
a glance.
The rain again spoiled the
success of the tournament last
Sunday, and kept the people away
from the grounds. There were
two bicycle races, the first between
Laizaire Bienvenu and John Franz,
two turn of the track, won by John
FROM; the second race, one turn,
between st. Martin Fournet and
Solonse Sorrel, won by ST. Martin
Fournet. The bicycle tournament
did not take place. The horse
tournament was won by Onesi-
phore Witt. The ball given the
same night at Duchamp's hall was
a pleasant affair, but not largely
attended.
| The assessment of the parish
this year will be about the same
as last year, the changes are very
little. The tax levied for current
ordinary expenses and current
criminal tax Of the parish is ten
mills, and the tax levied on corpo-
rations of st. Martinville and
Breaux Bridge for current crimi.
nal tax is four mills but with the
understanding that if the criminal
expenses do not amount to that
much, the surplus of the four mills
tax will be returned to the corpO.

The Daily Item does not seem
to have much faith in the Demo-
cratic candidate for the Presiden-
cy, if we are to judge by the fol-
lowing expression of that paper:
"Do the people want anarchism
and socialism to reign in this coun-
try? If nay, they cannot cast
their votes for w. J. Bryan. He
represents these things as in
shown by the platform upon which
he appears before the people. To
elect Bryan would be to call the
worst elements of this country in
to play, and to reinforce them by
large accessions of the same kind
from Europe. Are the people pre-
pared to turn the United States
over to a mob? Answer, all good
citizens"
