The tract belonging to Duval just

Bailey in a Bad Box.

Senator Bailey of Texas seems to
be in bad box by reason Of his con
nection as attorney with the Waters
Pierce Oil Company, which is regarded
as one OF the tentaeles Of the Standard
Oil octopus. After making strenuous
denial Of the charge that he had re-
ceived money from the aters-Pierce
concern, he has been confronted by
published vouchers and letters show
ing that he wrote to Mr.. Pierce for
money and received it. His defense IS
that be simply borrowed from the oil
magnate and returned the loans, but
the explanati is considered SO IN
satisfactory that many Texas news
papers and people who have hereto
fore favored the senator have now
turned against him and are openly
opposing his return to the senate. 1t
is to be regretted, irrespective of all
political or partisan considerations,
that a man OF Senator Bailey's brilli-
ant attachments should have become
involved in an ENHANCEMENT that must
inevitably hurt his prestige and cir
cumseribe his influence in the national
senate, even ii it does not actually
prevent his reelection.

Of death passed upon Albert =. Pat

The crime was committed on Septem-

that he had administered the poison at
the instigation of Patrick. The latter
was convicted March q, 1902, and

he has appealed to every court to

always in vain. The conviction was

/ f,raditahle Achievement.

So seldom are works of public inn
provement, involving the expendi-
ture of considerable sums OF money
derived from taxation OF the people,
completed "within the appropriation, !"
and SO general is the rule in such
cases for deficits TO be met either by in
creased taxation or drafts upon funds
intended for other purposes, that ex-
ceptfons to this rule are worthy of
special note and praise.
Donaldsonville has supplied such an
exception, as indicated by the report
submitted to the town council on the
10Th instant by Mayor Charles Maurin
relative to the extension and improve
ment of the municipal waterworks and
electric light system, as follows:
1t affords me great pleasure to report that
the special bond fund of 50 eco voted by our
good people for the improvement OF the water
works and electric light systems has been
more than sufficient to complete rms glganSc
undertaking. By your wise selection OF
good and competent engineer and by your
careful manner of awarding the contracts, we
can boast of having one Of the best systems Of
WAtpFWOrKS
dition we have remodelled the electric light
and waterworks plant SO as to conform to the
insurance regulations, and have renovated the
entire electric light system by replacing the old
wires with new and larger Ones erecting new
poles and installing arc lamps 10 our Two
principal business streets. We have also ex-
tended the water and rght systems TO gnuffn
report will show how the funds have been DIS
tributed. The itemized accounts are On file in
my Office for your inspection.
The statement of disbursements filed
by the mayor as part Of his report
shows that the total expenditure for
account of the Waterworks and lighting
improvements was $50, $50 so, including
1910 FOR 1000 feet Of new fire hose added
to the equipment of the several organ
izations forming the towns volunteer
fire department, thus leaving an unex-
pended balance Of $41.4 to the credit
of the s31, 900 appropriation.
This isn't a big balance, Of course,
but the wonder is that there should be
any. According to general custom
and precedent there should have been
instead deficit of no mean proper
tions for the council to Wrestle with
and the property holders to pay. The
violation of this custom and precedent
constitutes a creditable achievement
on the part of our municipal authori-
ties which the people OF Donaldson
vile will not be slow to recognize and
appreciate. And it should be added,
by the way, that great share of re-
sponsibility for the admirable manner
il which the enterprise under discus
sion has been handled rests upon the
shoulders OF Mayor Maurin himself.
He was unstinting and untiring in the
time and attention given to superyi-
sion of the details of the important
work that has been brought to such a
successful conclusion, and while the
aldermen and consulting engineer rich
" merit all the praise expressed and
implied in the report quoted above,
they will join The Chief in the declar
alton that none of them is entitled to
greater credit in this connection than
is the towns efficient and public-spir-
tied mayor.
