Dear Sis: Your business is
when a house bu rms down, TO give
the owner some money to build a
new one. 1t is a good business
Queer that the world got on so
long without it.
We paint the one that burnt
down and the new one-too. What
is better, we paint the houses
that don't burn down.
You insure the houses that burn;
we insure the houses that don't.
You have.the ashes and smoke;
all the houses are ours.
We paint lead and zinc; DevOe.
We sell the paint to painters; we
don't paint.
Lead and oil is the old fashion
palnt.s Devoe is zinc ground in
with lead and llnseed oil: the
best paint In the world: and the
cheapest, Abecause it takessfewer
gallons thannixed paints and it
wears twice as long as lead-and
oil. Nobody wants poor paint;
there's lots of it, though in the
world. II

AS the heated, sickly season is
now approaching. 1t would be an
excellent idea for every person to
clean up their premises and place
them in good sanitary condition.
All the back lots should be raked
off ard the old rubbish burned.
A liberal use of lime and other
dlsinfectants would also help
matters. 1t will not only add to
the appearance Of the town, but
may be the means of preventing
serious sickness. Clean up!-Ope-

HON. JAS. SIMON FOR JUDGE

HON. JAS. SIMON FOR JUDGE
A letter received this week
from Hon. James Simon of st.
Martinsville informs the VALLEY
that that sterling gentleman is a
candidate for judge of the 10th
judicial district. He has been
out as such since month, but the
fact that no formal announcement
was made accounts for omit lance
to mention his candidacy together
with that of Hon. Dan w. VOor-
HES. Mr.. Simon will prove a for
midable candidate, for his bril-.
liant record as district attorney,
lawyer and public spirited citizen
is appreciated throughout the dis
trict, and his honorable name
highly commends him to the con-
sideratiOn of the voters. Though
we personally favor for the judge
ship Mr.. VOORHEES,, and shall give
him our unequivocal support in
his election, we are broadminded
enough to deservingly credit Mr.
Simon with integrity and refine
ment Of character, deep knowledge
The weekly Iberian. (New Iberia, La.) 1894-1946, 1904-06-04

While 1T must be admitted that
considerable bitterness was felt
towards the victorious ticket,
which Mr.. Daspit supported. in
the late parochial campaign, we
can safely state that none exists
in the breast of anyone against
him Individually. His stand in
the campaign was impelled by
sentiments that every tue and
useful citizen feels. On or off the
platform he expressed himself
with the openness and fearless,
ness of manly American exer
cising his privilege of an option
in public question while giant
ing to those who differed il his
opinion an equally honorable mo.
tive IN doing so; arguing uhhesi
tatingly, but never once stopping
to the low chicanery Of the spetty
politician and hurting the feelings
of his opponents. And III his
contributing his dignified / and
honored personality and eloqrience
to the side of his choice, without
expecting any recompense and On
mindful of the possible harm 10
his profession that might have re-
suited from an active antagonism
to his clientele, his manllness of
character and sincerity of purpose
were plainly seen and eclipsed all
thoughts of partisan ill-feellng.
We repeat that in this part Of the
district Mr.. Daspit's fine talents,
enhanced in appreciableness by
his cordial relations with the
people and many acts for the pub
lie good, are fully estimated, and
his candidacy wonld rally around
him stout support.
Although Mr.. VOORHEES, has only
lately announced himself his can
didacy is known to all and has
touched popular chord through
out the district. He too is fortu
nate in having never acted in any
manner but to win the praise and
love Of the public. and he has the
special advantage of a great pop
ularity in Iberia plus that in this
arish.-Breaux Bridge valley.
