ITO the victors belong the spofis!
says the politician" This IL a
farce! we are sure, will answer our
friends Victor Maraist and MAu-
rice Patin, who are some OF the
victors. Victor Msraist was never
spoiled at all, though he tried hard
to get piece of the political pie.
Brother Patin was spoiled for one
year because the law kept the Po-
lice Jury from rewarding the Ban
ner for the good work of the VAL
ley-of-tbe- Teche, the Banner was
too young to carry the burden of
the spoil last year. bat this year
it became of age and for this rea-
son the Valley was despotaed.
Such is politics, and this 10 all
there IL about it.

department and notified that he was
expected to report for duty at the
time fixed for beginning work.
Young Hill paid no attention to the
warning, and was promptly dis
charged.
They say that the employee wha
comes under the direct notice of Hill
can look with certainty for an i'm
portant happening soon thereafter.
One day Hill met a likely appear
| ing young man in the hallway of the
general office building
Who are you?" he asked.
The young man gave his name, ex-
planned that he had just been appoint
ed general freight agent, and was
about TO report TO his chief. Hill
| took the man into his office, talked
to him about his experience and
sized him up" When the interview
ended he said:
You go down and tell Blank"
mentioning the name of the general
freight agent, that you are the gen
eral freight agent" And that was
the only notice of his discharge re-
ceived by the official who was dis
placed.
A business man, an old friend of
Hills, delivered a long eulogy on the
great ability of the old man and the
phenomenal success he has achieved.
He was asked as to the other side.
Yes" he said Mr.. Hill has faults,
n &c Of
marian, but he is arbitrary and often
| unjust"
An official Of the company was
asked what great quality marked its
| management that made its officials
so much in demand and the office so
| highly rated as a training school for
young men.
Economy" he said, coupled with
efficiency. The combination, | guess,
is q reasonably rare one. For in
stance, the operating expenses of the
| Great Northern are only so per cent
| of the gross receipts. On nearly all
| railroads it is over 60 per cent. That
watchfulness of the dollars has made
| possible dividends on the Great
Northern in hard times.
Despite the economy, nobody has
| ever accused Mr.. Hill or the Great
Northern of any lack of enterprise.
When the wheat he delivered to lake
| steamers was burdened with excess
i've elevator charges at Buffalo he
put up his own elevators and carried
the wheat in his own steamers.
ITO improve the strain of stock
| along the line he distributed blooded
cattle and hogs free among the farm
ers. He delivered addresses to these
men on improved methods of farming.
| He encouraged and helped the wheat
farmers to diversity their crops"
Hill was born in Canada in 1898.

JOTS BY THE WAY

The law passed by a recent state
legislature requiring those following
the barber business to demonstrate
their fitness for that business by pass
ing an examination and also requiring
that proper sanitary precautions shall
be observed by those who conduct
barbering establishments is good
and salutary measure. Loathesome
diseases are frequently coll
tracted in barber shops. An instance
in point was furnished a few days
ago when a young man consulted a
physician regarding a painful and
loathesome eruption on his face. 1t
appeared that the disease had been
communicated to him from unclean
instruments used in a barber shop
which he patronized DR.. Benedict
made an examination of the barber
shop, barber college, it is styled and
finding the instruments infected and
the general surroundings unclean
had the place closed for a time and
thoroughly disinfected and fumigated.
