WHICH is BEST.

Some months ago the Enter
prise called attention to the ne.
cessity for organization for pro.
lection among the planters and
growers and farmers. AS vet
in this Parish no steps have been
taken in this direction, but the
farmers of other Parishes and
localities have begun the move
ment that will prove of meal
culable benefits to them, and in
consequence the section in which
they live.
There is a general movement
all over the United States in this
direction. The producers have
reached the limit of their pa
thence. They have been robbed
so long that they have been fair
ly forced to adopt measures.
that seem the best to gain pro
lection, that at one time were re
pugnant to them. For century
or more they have fought the
principle of pooled interests.
but the time has come when to
prevent actual highway robbery,
they are being driven to organi-
zation to save themselves from
practical slavery.
With organization, they feel
that they will have some power
to join in the issue that go TO-
ward the making of prices for
their products, that they will have
voice in the determination of
the problem Of supply demand
and that they may play their own
part in life as to them may seem
the fittest.
No grower single handed can
resist the power of combined
wealth. AS a member of Farm
ers Union the planter is a force
that is armed to resist any and
all movements that aim st loss TO
his income. He has a voice in
ts!..rff xing of prices. He has his
neighbor as his conrad in arms
and together they can resist
where before he was compelled
to submit to the dictation of the
purchaser.
All over the State, Farmers
Unions are being formed. Ware
houses are being constructed for
their special use and the time is
fast coming when they will be
able to say TO combined capital
you must pay our price or you
may look elsewhere for your
supply"
In sections Of the country
where these Farmers Unions
have been in existence for some
time the thraldom resultant from
the advancing system" has
passed. The farmer is now free
and independent. In sections
where the Unions are not found,
the grower is still in the clutches
of the men who favor" him with
loans to carry him along and who
take good care that the he shall
not become free man.
The question for the growers
Of this Parish to consider is
whether it would not be far bet
ter TO organize and become free
factors or whether the same old
of slavery to the money
enders shall prevail.

PROPERTY TO BE IMPROVED.

Mr.. Alpine Fontelieu has
sold to Messrs. Immergluck
& Co. and to Mr.. r. S.
Mcmahon the property front
ing in Main Street at the
corner of Fisher Street. And
only day or SO ago Mr.. Fon-
telieu sold the property in
Main Street near Weeks to
MIR. Chas. Clerc for $500.
The latter property fronts 90
feet in Main Street and the
other plot fronts 90 feet, one
half being taken by immergluck
& Co. and the other halt by
| MIR. Mcmahon.
Mr.. Immergluck said thai
it was the intention of his
firm to construct on his plot
the finest building for bust
ness in the city. 1t will be
modern in every particular and
will have dept: of I4o feet.
Behind this there will be erected
a cold storage warehouse where
goods may be kept in the best
condition for use in the heated
terms.
1t is the intention to make
this store second to none in the
State. 1t will be on the corner
of Fisher Street, Mr.. McMa-
hon taking the plot nearer to
his present place of business.
The plans for the building have
not been drawn as yet and only
general idea can be formed as
to its nature.
1t will probably be two sto-
ries or more in height with a
large and handsome dome on
which will be displayed a clock
for the benefit of the city. 1t
will have frontage on the two
streets with large plate glass
windows for the display of the
finest line of groceries to be
found anywhere and will be a
building at once, an ornament
to the city and the home of one
of our most enterprlsing firms.
Fisher Street will be widened
by several feet so as to permit
of a sidewalk, arrangements for
this having been made in the
division of the property. The
delivery wagons will be kept
from Main Street by the ar
rangement at the rear of the
whereby a street per-
mits of vehicles OF all descrip-
tons.
The dimensions of the cold
storage warehouse have not
been decided upon as yet but it
will be adequate to the large
md growing trade of this firm
ind will be fitted with the latest
lp-to-date appliances for insti
utions of its kind.

CONDENSED REPORT OF THE

The City Council met last
Monday with all the members
present and Mayor Laughlin in
the chair. Several important
matters came up for discussion
but the meeting was called for
special purposes and business
other than that included in the
call was excluded.
The City Collector reported
that during the year ending
June 80 he had collected re-
venues of $45,oI6.76. This
was the total amount of money

the profits from impounding
animals for the mounth of July

amount he had turned over to
the city Treasurer.
1t will be remembered that at
the last meeting of Council it
was remarked that the Cumber-
land Telephone Co. had NOT re-
paired the cement walks it had
torn up in placing its new poles
in position. Since then moth
ing has been done in the way of
repair by the Company and last
evening Council adopted a re-
solution giving the Company
thirty days to properly repair
the sidewalks. If the work is
not completed in that time the
city is to sue the company tor

he Mayor was authorized to
nave an assessment roll for the
rear made.
He was also authorized to
borrow about $4,000 to pay the
unning expenses of the city till
he taxes become due.
City Surveyor Guilfoux re-
'orted that he had found so
much more work in straighten-
ng out the lines of properties
hat he had not been able to
nish the city map. He had
cen obliged to search the re-
ords for lines and this had COM
amed time. He asked for fit
zen days more time and was
ranted thirty.
A communication was receiv-
l from the Retail Grocers As G
asking that an ordin- n
ice be passed establishing a 5
andard weight for a loaf of e
-ead. This matter had not n
zen included in the call and it q

ould look into the matter of

that Roosevelt and Bryan are the
logical and seemingly inevitable
candidates for 1908. And it be-
lives that being in possession.
Roosevelt will be better protect
ed from the chance of errors OF

who is assail the fortress.
There is a fair difference of opin-
ion here, and many will hold
that the critics place is the suf-

With the special appropriation
OF 500 made at the recent SEES.
sion OF the General Assembly for
the purchase of twenty five acres
of additional lands for the South
western Industrial Institute the
Board of Trustees of that institu-
ton has consummated purchase
which effectually lays the founda-
ton for great State institution of
learning in Southwest Louisiana.
The original % acres which were
donated by Mr.. Crow Girard and
his mother six years ago as an in
ducement to the State to select
Lafayette as the location of the
school would have been ample for
the immediate needs of the school
but not nearly enough to allow for
its growth, additional buildings,
etc., which would have soon de-
prived the young men of their ath-
letic field and would have limited
to very small area the space for
gardens etc, for the boarding club.
1t is also necessary to have separate
play ground for the young ladies,
who are entitled to as much con-
sideration as the young men.
With the area of so now at the In
stitute's command all these various
problems are happily solved.

parted in midocean he instantly took the
most careful bearings of the ships position,
bearings which, in 1866 proved of the ut
most utility. So confident was he of their
accuracy that when on. September 2. the
vessel reached a certain point he declared
that the ship was lover the spot" Almost
simultaneously, 1t is stated, one of the Great
