Hill has asked E. H Hartman to
transport 5000 steel plates to Hong
Kong. The plates were shipped from

not clear to shipping men, but 1t is be-
lieved the war situation has Influenced

The spring meeting of the Canon

All races were half mile and entries

To Protect Quai1 and Game.

What is left of the old Fremont
County Game and Protection Associa-
tion organized several years ago, met

Mr.. DeWeese made statement
about the object and work of the asso-
citation.
He said that some six or seven years
ago the association purchased IL big
quail and 40 Mongolian pheasants and
turned them loose near Canon City.
To the best of his knowledge all OF the
pheasants are dead, but the quail have
increased very nicely. 1t is estimated
that there are now in the neighborhood
of Canon City, 80 or A. Covies OF s to Is
birds each.
Subscriptions we're taken up few
weeks ago to bring some more quail
here but they could not be secured. 1t
is hoped to get some more quail in the
fall. Something like SIS has been sub
scribed and this will probably be in
creased.
officers were elected as follows: Will
lis Watron. Pres. and Jas L. Coope,
Sec. and Treas.

Primaries have been called on the
10th of September next for the pur-
pose of selecting n candidate for Judge
I of the First Circuit Court So long
as Hon. L. o. Hacker was in the field
for this position. we gave our support
to his canvass He having withdrawn
from the contest we of course are re-
lieved from further support. So far
but two candidates have presented
themselves for the position those OF
Hon. Julian Mouton of Lafayette and
Hon. G.. A. Fournet, of Calcasieu. Nc
doubt both of these gentlemen are
fully competent to discharge the duties
of this office and will receive a large
vote from the First District From
an intimate acquaintance with Hon.
Julian Mouton and bearing in mind
his many good qualities of head and
heart. his long experience on the
bench and as lawyer and jnrist. we
feel that in him are found all the re-
quisites for an ideal candidate and
we unhesitatingly endorse him as
such and commend him to the voters
of our District, believing they will
make no mistake in giving him their
hearty support.

OOOb ROADS.

The Progressive League of Shteve-

below To Mr.. \. b. Romero, Secretary
of the Police jury and is worth the
perusal of all our thinking citizens
who regard good roads as prime ne
cessitv The meeting to be held ON
September 6 and It'll, next. is very
important one and should be attended
BY delegation from this Parish as
also all the Parishes, cooperation
will do much TO bring about this
much desired object that of good roads
We trust our Police Jury will appoint
delegates without delay.
THE Federal Government at vari-
Gus points throughout the country
has for some time been building lob
ject lesson roads and at present has
under construction about one mile for
and leading out of this city. We
think this practical and far reach
ing step in the good roads movement
and we feel that the rest of the state
should be given an opportunity to see
this practical demonstration and TO
learn the methods of the men in
charge of the work.
Il -
decided TO hold here on the 9th and
eth of September, next Good Roads
Convention or Institute, which we be
lieve will be of great interest and ben
eft to the country.
Besides the gentlemen in charge of
the work here, we have invited and
hope to have with us Hon. John Dy-
mond, president Of the State Good
Roads Association; Hon. Henry MAYO,
secretary; the president and secretary
of the Texas Good Roads Association;
Gov Lanham, of that state who is an
enthusiast in the work and most
practical man. Hon. Martin Dodge,
director of Public Road Inquiries,
Washington, ID. c., and Hon. NJ. o.
Eldredge, assistant director. Mr.
Eldredge will deliver an address illus
trated with stereopticon views show
ing the progress of road construction
and also showing the roads of the
United States and of Europe. Mr..
Eldredge has travelled extensively and
has given personal inspection of these
roads, the majority of the views have
been taken by himself. Following
each address or lecture there will be
general discussion of the subject by
those present, and thus will all profit
by the knowledge and experience of
each.
BY the 9th of next month one
stretch of the road will be completed,
while another will be under way, SO
that the Convention can Judge not only
of the methods and machinery en-
ployed but of the finished product
You are most cordially invited to
be present, and urged to cooperate |
with us by bringing with you dele

New Orleans should disgust every vot,
er who desires participation in the
selection of officers who shall govern

stumbling block. the bette noir of the

A majority of delegates is so much
easier to obtain than a majority of
voters. New Orleans will soon again
be in the hands of the bosses and q
chance for the people to express their
preference will be a thing of the past.
Still there is a conservative element
in the Crescent City that must be con-
sidered and that element which. has
always been opposed to Bossism will
yet assert itself and make no end of
trouble for Conventioners. That Mar
tin Behrman is an ideal candidate
there is no shadow of a doubt, young,

set aside to compass his nomination

THE BOYS.

Editor Enterprise:
A word to the fathers and mother
and a plea for the (so-called) ''bat
boy. Z"
The bad boys as a rule are tn,
smart boys and il parents will notice
they are not troublesome when inter
ested in something, SO the problem
seems to be to find something for them
to do, they will like. Give boys
some light wood and q hammer and
saw and nails, how happy they are.
1t does seem a. though we could fur
nish them with something Of the kind !;
scroll saws will also keep them ont of
mischief; IL they have such things
when they are small they will get
over some Of their troublesome ways.
Again it is best not to give children
nickels to spend unless they earn
them; do father and mother get the
nickles without earning them? Then
why should the children, and how can
they learn the value Of money if they
do NOT learn Tn work fnr itS
If you have no other way for them
to earn it, let them help with the
homework. Some boys can sweep
better than girls and do not mind it
if they commence young enough.
