CITIZENS OF IBERIA.


A poll tax OF one dollar is
due by every citizen of the Par
Ssh who will have reached the
age 81 by January Ist 1907, or
who is over that age and under
60.
Every dollar thus paid is
turned over to the public school
funds of the Parish.
1t is the solemn duty of every
citizen to contribute in this way
to the support of the schools OF
the Parish. 1t is the least he
can do.
Ignorance and illiteracy must
be supplanted by education, if
our Parish is to progress along
moral and material lines.
The funds at the disposal of
the school board are not ade-
quate to furnish the number of
schools necessary to enable
every child in the parish to OBJ
tain an education. 1t accord |
lngly behooves the citizens of
the Parish to increase these
funds by paying the small sum
OF ONE DOLLAR as poll tax.
If every citizen of the Parish
who owes this tax will pay it,
the school condition OF the Par
sh will be greatly advanced.
Do not fail in this duty. Only
Dad citizens will oppose the
:ause of popular education.
Do not align yourselves with
he BAD element.
Agaln-it is your duty to ex-
rclse the right to vote. IF you
10 not pay your poll tax before
anuary Ist, 1907, you will be {
lisfranchised and unable to ex- :
rclse the right to vote which {
very citizen should prize. s
The citizen who knowingly dis
franchises himself is unworthy
f citizenship. ,
The hope and safeguard OF
he country is the ballot cast ,
18th honesty and tearlessness. |
Remember that the right to t
ote is sacred right and only c
lie USELESS citizen abstains f
ON the exercise of that right. +
Remember that you owe it t
your State, your Parish and c

LARGEST IN THE HISTORY OF THE
INSTITUTION. M

Judging from the very large cor
respondence and other information
pouding in, the Tyler CONNER cial
College of Tyler, Texes, will open
in 1907 with the largest enrolment
in its history, more than 200 new
students will be added to the
already large enrolment. Our
young people should feel encour-
aged in taking course of Book
keeping, Shorthand, or Telegraphy,
for notwithstanding the fact that
we enroll more than a thousand
students annually, there is not a
single graduate who has been out
of employment two weeks, unless
1t is of his own accord. Good posi-
tons are awaiting them when they
finish their courses. During the
past week we have been asked to
fill many good positions, seven of
which we had no graduates to re-
commend. This is conclusive proof
that the professions for which we
are training young men and women
are not overcrowded. We are re-
ceiving calls almost daily from all |
classes of business firms through
out Texas and adjoining states for
our bookkeepers and stenogra-
piers. Different railroads are
seeking our graduates of tele-
graphy; we could place so today
if we had them, at salaries from
5000 to $500 per year, and these
figures do not represent the salary
hey should be drawing twelve
months after graduating, Stud
,nts, who loss than two years ago,
started at $50 per month, are today
lrawing from $175 to 5000 per
month.

SUPREnE COURT RULINGS.

An interesting decision hac
been handed down by the Su
preme Court in the matter o
rhe injunction issued restraining
the tearing down of the railroad
bridge across the Bayou Petite
Anse after the work was done
1t will be remembered that the
Sheriff under orders from the
Court torcibly tore down the
Iberia and VcrmilIion r. r.
bridge across the Bayou Petite
Anse IN order to allow the
dredge boat of the contractor
for the drainage canal to pass up
the stream.
After the order of the court
had been obeyed the Supreme
Court issued an injunction res
training the destruction of the
bridge. Apparently this injunc-
ton Is still IN force although the
bridge has been long in place
and the dredge has gone along
on her business. This is the
order continuing the Injunction
which may have to be set aside
when the dredge wants to get
