High License in st. Landry.

Judge Gilbert l.. Dupre passed
through town Monday and called on
the Gazette. He was on his way
to Crowley. The judge was in fine
spirits, possibly as a result Of the
recent decisions Of the superior
courts IN cases appealed from his
district. the Supreme Court has
just affirmed one of the judges
opinions, and at its recent sitting in
Opelousas the Circuit Court rem
dered affirmative judgments in all
the cases from St. Landry.
Another thing Judge Dupre was de-
lighted at was the fact that the jail
at Crowley was empty condition
unknown before. Judge Dupre in
formed US that crime in Acadia and

to IS per cent. This happy change
he ascriOes to high license.

that an election be held to levy

it will be here to stay. 1t will not
be temporary advantage to the
people Of this section but it will
be Of great benefit at the start
and will never cease to grow in
usefulness. Let us imagine that
Crowley were presented with such
an offer. How would its citizens
bestir themselves? What a gigan-
tic effort that town would make to
get the school? And yet we have
