PARISH AFFAIRS.

The Police Jury is getting down
TO business and they are now pro-
ceeding in business way. and we
trust that the new members recent
ly added to the Police Jury will
continue their good work and put
everything in good shape.
They have established the in
debtedness of the Parish which
amounts to $27,4S4,67. We are
told that possibly $1,000 could be
added to this amount by the out
standing Jurors and Witnesses
certificates, issued by the Clerk of
Court. of which, it appears, the
Police Jury kept no account.
The Clerk of Court keeps sepe-
rate books with stubs, which are
numbered, and it would be an easy
matter for the Clerk of Court to
make monthly statement of such
certificates issued, or for the Ac-
countant to take note of them and
keep a correct account of this part
of the criminal expenses.
The statement recently publish
ed by the Police Jury showing the
various appropriations made and
the amount expended ont of each
appropriation and showing balance
unexpended is a good idea, and
the same should be published every
month, az it keeps the public pos
ted on the financial affairs of the
Parish, and at the end of each year
an exact statement of the receipts
and expenditures should be pub
lished.
We desire also to call the atten-
ton of the Police Jury to the fact
that the incorporated towns of St.
MartinviIle and Breaux Bridge
are taxed for criminal purpose. and
never was q statement of the cri-
minal expenses made. 1t seems
to us a separate account should be |
kept of the criminal tax, and if |
more is expended than collected,
the criminal tax should be increa-
sed, but if there is q surplus, the
criminal tax should be reduced, or
the surplus money should he re-
turned to the towns.
Our people have been paying
this criminal tax without knowing
whether they we're paying their
just share or not. They have
right to know this.

Letter to e. Delahoussaye
st. Martinvilla

St Martinvilla
Dear Sir: "Three-quarter paint"
is a good phrase for the outside of
Devoe. IS
Devoe is the standard; mark it
too. The next-best-there are Sc
veral not far spart--sre three
quarter paints; you may mark them
IS to Devoe's too.
: The bulk of the paints in mark
ct are 40 or so or 60; few better
than 60; few are worse than 40.
How do they act? They cover
from one to three-quarters as much
as Devoe; and they last from one
to three-quarters as long as Devoe.
What are they worth? The same
rule don't hold; it costs more to
put on some paints than they are
worth; they are not worth any,
thing; the "put-on" costs two or
three times as much as the paint.
Yours truly

after PACIFIC LINERS NOW
VLADlVOSTOk FLEET MAY GET
SHIPS FROM AMERICA.
Danger is Eminent-News of Seizure
is Expected in Toxic Within a Few
Days-Food Is Contraband of War,
and Russians May Intercept Vessels
With Cargoes From Pacific Coast.

Tokio.-The object of the Russian
fleet, which left Vladivostok some
days ago and since reported cruising
off the Japanese main coast, is now
believed to be the capture of several
liners plying between San Francisco
and Seattle and oriental points. These
include the large vessels of the Pacific
Mail Steamship company and the
Northern Pacific company
Fishermen have sighted the Rus
sian ships during the last few days
and declare that they are steaming
slowly and apparently are economizing
in the matter of coal.
The danger to ships trading in The
japanese ports is a decidedly immi-
nent one and the belief is general here
that within a very few days news of
the capture of several we'll known Pa
citic liners may be expected. There
are few vessels trading with the
western contingent that are fast
enough to keep out of the way of the
Russian fleet, all of the three cruisers
which comprise the latter being better
than 20 knots in speed.
AS Russia has included foodstuffs in
| its declaration as to what constitutes
| contrahand of war and as San Fran.
cisco, Seattle and Vancouver nor.
chants have been doing thriving
business in the latter class of goods
there is little doubt that most of The
steamships plying between the two
countries violate the spirit if not the
letter of the ruling.
1t is reported here that the Russian
fleet has succeeded in caching a quao
tity of coal at an island in the north
Pacific so that even if Vladivostof
should be blockaded and the fec
could not return there it would be II
a position to replenish it's coal bunker'
and keep out of the way of any pur
suing fleet.

JAPANs INTEREST IN SEIZURE.
Russias Action Said to Be Insult to
Powers.

The passage of the Dardanelles by
the Russian volunteer feet steamers,
the seizures of German mail and the
capture in the Red Sea by Russia OF
the Peninsular & Oriental steamer Ma
lacca have attracted great attention
throughout Japan. The government Is
watching the situation keenly, but 1t
has not given any form of expression
to its views or indication that it will
take any action in the matter.
The editors of the Toxic newspapers
have met and passed a resolution de-
claring that the passage of the Oar
danelles by the Russian ships is vio-
lation of treaty obligations and an in
suit to all of the powers, that the seiz-
ures of ships by the Russian volun-
teer vessels jeopardize the interests
of all neutral powers, and that Russia's
action endangers the peace of the
world.
