There is no point on the lake

boats and launches at the docks. An
excursion on the lake and st. Joe
river to the village of ST. Joe is one
pf the most pleasant experiences i'm
aginRble. Occur d'Alene lake is 80
miles long and is broken up into a
score of little inlets and bays, In
width 1t varies from one mile to
seven, The lay of the surrounding
bills ia such, that it Is not possible
to see a great deal of it at one time,
but the lake keeps spreading out In
a continuing series Of bays, as the
hills are rounded They are one of
the chief beauties Of the place, these
hills Of Occur d'AIene, which play at

lake on which the town is situated
they are mountains in all-but size.

DEMOCRAT OF THE OLD SCHOOL.

The Chicago Chronicle has the
following to say of one of Louisi-
ana's leading citizens:
"Southerners are fond of point
ing to Senator Foster.of Louisiana,
as Democrat of the old school
the type of statesman who is in
his office because he loves the
work and who holds service to his
State next to that of his God. II
was largely through his efforts
that the Louisiana Lottery was
broken up. and SO highly was his
achievement appreciated that be

State, after which he was chosen
to the United States Senate. where
he will remain until March ). 1913,
at least. Senator Foster is a

quo's ghost. will not down. The
Star contends that certain officers
in this State should be made in
eligible to succeed themselves,
among them the sheriff and. tax
collector. The Star says:
"The sheriff and tax collector OF
the average Louisiana parish is
power in the political arena and
wields an influence limited only
by the boundaries of the parish in
which he resides. By reason Of
the enormous salaries and fees
paid sheriffs and tax collectors,
these officials are enabled to build
up powerful rings and combina-
tions. not only perpetuating them
selves in Office, but often debating
and 60 ninating the politi OF the
entire parish. The sheriffs and
tax collectors not only weld an
influence in their respective par
ishes, but they have been known,
by united action, to defeat good
and wholesome legislation by the
General Assembly. when measures
affecting their Offices were pro-
posed by some venturesome MEM
Der who dared to oppose them, IN
the interest of the people.
The Star suggests that the Office
of sheriff and tax collector be
separated and that both be inelig-
ible to succeed themselves. We
believe the public service would
be greatly benefited and cond;-
tions improved immeasurably. At
any rate, such law would prevent
one man holding the Office con-
tinuously and would give ambiti-
Gus individuals an opportunity to
serve the people"

Ed. Southern Sentinel:
/ have been reading some items
by some of the boys in your paper
and am pleased to know that its
columns are open to its readers,
and / wish to offer few facts to
show that as a citizen of this COM
mun'ty | am in harmony with the
contributors of the two articles,
for the reason that our commun-
ity has been largely benefited by
the mill and its business in our
midst, for unlike most sawmill
enterprises, they have done all
they could to aid the people in
the country. We have found
ready market for our milk and
butter, eggs and all kinds of gar
den produce; for all of which the
best market prices have been paid,
and from the very start we have
been getting the cash for what we
had to spare, and all who. had a
little pine timber on their places
have got the cash or its equivalent
for it, and any time that we want
lumber to improve our homes
all we have to. do is to apply to
A. j. O'Quin, The man st the
head of the business on the yard
and had charge of the local orders.
and we are waited on at once and
get just what we need.
Now that we have q first rate
little country store In our midst,
under the management of Mr.. j.
E. Drewett, we can get anything
we need in the way of plantation
supplies at the very lowest market
prices. Miss Lanora Estes, the
young lady clerk. is always ready
to show US everything in their
nice stock of goods.
And the postoffice at Emden is
another great convenience.

THE JUDGES CHARGE.

Judge Wear gave most COM
prehensive charge to the Grand
Jury last Monday morning, toucl-
ing upon all the crimes which he
is specially directed by the
statutes to give. He also called
special attention to the fact that
under the present system of work
ing the roads. it seems impossible
to have them worked; that he had
been in hopes Winn parish would
seize the opportunity to join in
til: march of progress by. voting
the special tax and take position
with the other parishes in this
State, and he was very sorry. in
deed. that the tax had been de-
feated. The old system. which
has been in vogue ever since the
organization of the parish, has
proven to be a failure except in
rare instances.

to with interest by packed court

COO aoADs.


This cause is one that will be
kept in the forefront of the public
until something is done to do
away with the supersticous pre-
dudes that exist in the minds of
some of the denizens of this par
ish, who will suffer themselves if
they think by doing SO they will
be doing an injury to Winfield.
Wild premises were made by those
who, by their incessant and unlaw-
full methods, defeated the tax by
voting not only the property of
corporatioos. but allowing nom
residents to cast vote and then
vote the property tax of corpor-
alton of which he is only stock
holder. not having any property
assessed to him in his own right
and whose name is not on the
Registration Books-I make this
charge and do ! have to do so
under 6ctious name.
Some claim that the Police Jury
should have first gone out and
asked permission to submit this
question, the fact that they order
ed an election without this pre-
liminary was the cause of the
defeat. Another claim is that the
money would all be used COM
mencing at WINFIELD and there
would be no funds left when they
got to the outlaying wards. They
had forgotten that the Police Jury
had amply provided for the work
ing of the roads out of Winfield.
and in fact almost throughout
ward one. The first is that mag
ni6cent dyke and steel bridges on
the road running east, commenc-
ing at the corporation line and
connecting Winfield with ward
two. The building of which will
be monument to show futnre gen.
erations of the wisdom and fore
thought of the present Police Jury.
Then the provision for working
the convicts on the public. roads
is another evidence of the prog
ressive spirit shown by the men,
bers of the Police Jury. There
fore none of the money. had the
tax been voted, could have been
used in the vicinity of WINFIELD,
but WINFIELD and ward one would
have contributed more money
than any two wards to the road
fund to supply the deficit that
would occur in those wards, which
has public road running to nearly
every house in the ward. Winn-
field nor ward one, under the pre-
sent arrangements. would have
gotten anything out of the tax
and the taxpayers in ward one
would contribute and require the
foreign corporations to contribute
to the cause of our public roads
throughout the parish.
The three mile limit carries the
convicts to that fplendid bridge
at the Crooked Bridge crossing.
which connects wards one and
seven. and making Tannehill .
suburb Of Winn6eld. as We see
many of the citizens of that little
town in our midst trading.
We invite all those who voted
against the lax to come to Winn-
field and see how the roads in
ward one are being worried.
