The half day period for business in the pro-

dealers, and as there was no call session by
noon about all hurry orders were filed and the
wholesalers began thinking OF catchlng trains

sugar planters wanted and have
taken advantage of the opportu
nifty to engage in the cultivation
of their crops and the destruction
of the grass and the outlook all
along the line is distinctly better
and the prospects for Il record
breaking cane crop are lmprOv

will give an opportunity for an
immense amount of work to be
done and will doubtless restore
the healthy appearance OF even
the cane in those low places
where the water stood longest.

A ACTION.

The action of the Council Fri
day night in making an appro.
priatiOn of a thousand dollars to
secure the location of the Parish
Farmers Union warehouse at
Lafayette. will, we believe, be
generally commended.
The location of the warehouse
here was a matter of the utmost
Importance to this city. and as
the sum raised by private contri-
buttons, was insufficient, it was
"up to the Council" to make an
appropriation or see the ware
house go elsewhere. which would
have been a serious blow to our
trade.
The Council met the situation,
by making the appropriation.
Notwithstanding there was doubt
as to their legal right to do so.
They had, however, numerous
precedents for such a course in
the action of various councils in
the State. /,
Unquestionably, tor the best in
terest of a city, there must be
some discretion left to the Coun.
Gil in the matter of appropria'
tions. The law can not provide
for all contingencies that may
occur and therefore it has hap
pened in the past, not alone ir
the history of Lafayette. but Of
many other towns of the State
that occasions have arisen wher
the Council was called on t.
assist in things of the utmost
Importance and value to thu
town, as in the present instance
of the warehouse. The Council
in such case must take advan
tage of the doubt, assum,
the responsibility and decide.

THE COLLECTORS SALARY.

No n is more willing than
The Advertiser to see all public
officials receive full pay for their
services, and in differing with
the action of the Council in plac-
ing the town collectors salary
on a three per cent commission,
we do so, not because we wish
the present incumbent, who is
an efficient officer. to receive less
than he is entitled to, but because
we think that on a three per
cents basis the Office will pay
more than it is worth to collect
the revenues of the town. The
basis of $1,000 a year proposed by
Mr.. A. E. Mouton, in his motion
to fix the collectors salary, APP
a to us a liberal cOmpensa
ton The three per cent com
mission adopted by the Council
will yield the Collector this year
about $500 as the estimated
revenues will be $4,000.
1t is to be expected that each
year there will be an increase in
the revenues of the town which
will augment the salary of the col
lector prOportiOnately. Should we
vote a tax for a railroad or for
any other public improvement,
the salary will be still further in.
creased.
The position taken by Coun'
cilmen A. E, Mouton, A. B. Den
DO and G.. A. Martin in regard tC
fixing the salary of the collector
at 500 a month is correct and we
believe will meet with genera
approval.
