ELECTRIC RAILWAY.

We see By our New Orleans dis
patches that the progressive city OF
Alexandria has awarded fran
chise to Mr.. Z. G.. Bush, Mobile
Ala, for the construction of an
electric railway in that city.
This is a matter that should engage
the attention of our people. We
need an electric road for cur city
and with its extension to Berwick
40 miles east of this place, as con-
templated by Gen'l. F. F. Myles,
and who surveyed the route, OBJ
tanning authority and right-of-way
all along the route, the Police
Juries of St. Mary and Iberia, Civ
ing him the most liberal franchise,
which unfortunately he was not
able to carry out. If there is a
promising electric road proposition
in the United States it is found
here. The topography OF the coun-
try is very favorable for such a
project; being level, no swamps,
no expensive bridges, no heavy
grading, but the very minimum of
expense. The territory along the
route has seven towns ranging
from 1000 to 10,0OO in population,
and the intervals are represented
by plantations teeming with popu-
lation, in fact within two years at
ter the establishment of the road
the entire route would be a con
tinuons town. Our people stand
ready 10 offer any encouragement
that is reasonable to induce capital
to build this road with the mini
mum Of expense for construction
and operation the road should be
a dividend payer from the start.
We commend this enterprise to
the consideration Of those engaged
in exploiting these schemes and
invite their examination of the
route and consultation with the
people feeling assured they will
find substantial encouragement.

WANTED NO
SALOON
JUSTICE

New York April 6-"Don't elect a rum
seller to reform him." was the verdict
which the people OF Beilport, l.. l., handed
out at their town election Tuesday.
William r. Gardiner, candidate for jus
tice of the peace, who had promised to
go out of the liquor business II elected,
was buried under an avalanche OF votes
His opponent on the Democratic ticket,
John r. Vunk, received about 40 votes
10 GARDENERS 80 in the town Of Bellport
alone and the returns from the remainder
OF the township (Brookhaven) are not ex-
pected to change the result so far as
Gardiner Is concerned.
The liquor mans associates on the Re-
publican ticket however, all appear to
be elected. In the last Mckinley cam
paign Bellport gave the Republican presi-
dent a majority OF 40 out OF 400 votes
cast. Gardiner told a reporter that this
fine showing had been due TO $50 which
the Republican National committee had
put in his hands for Judicious distribu-
ton.
Gardiner has a saloon on the main
street OF Belport He is clever and gen.
ial, and interested in the real estate busi-
ness and other activities. Once, many
years ago, he and his uncle were fined
was mo license"
His dearest foe is L. NJ. Price, who
keeps a butcher shop and is regarded
as an exemplary citizen. Mr.. Price has
twice before defeated Gardiner for justice
of the peace A strict Prohibitionist.
he takes JOY in heading off GARDENERS
projects.
Mr. Price was the candidate on the
Prohibitionist ticket this time, but he
voted for Gardeners opponent Gardiner
served notice on the voters a few days
ago that IL they wanted him 10 go out
OF the liquor business they would have
to elect him justice of the peace. The
law requires him to drop liquor selling
II he becomes a justice
IF Gardiner wanted to reform" said
a voter, after ,depositing his ballot
against him, 'the time to do IL was
few months ago. II he had closed UP his
saloon before the nomination and said to
the people:
"Tm out of this for good they would
have helped him out and probably elect
ed him"
Gardiner was up early button-holing
the temperance people and urging them
10 vote for him because he was going
out OF business if elected.
When the count had progressed far
enough 10 show how things were going,
Gardiner decided not 10 reform.
This was just a question for the
citizens 10 decide" said he. Govern
ment and state licenses are easy enough
10 get.
What I wanted was a moral license
from the townspeople Now I've got IT,
! think about next week I'll go TO New
York and get some point from Bishop
Potter's tavern. Then I'll get bigger
place here with some OF this nouveau
art IN II and see II ! can't make a little
more money"
