Politics is getting to be a little
lively in this parish. Already we
hear reports that a meeting was
held here and there by the differ
ent candidates for parish Offices.
The fractional lines are already be-
ing drawn and the followers of
each faction being measured.
Each side claims easy victory, but
this is always the case with the
politicians. We all know that po-
litics is uncertain and we cannot
take the reports Of the politicians
seriously, but our candid opinion
is that Pellerin and his parish
ticket will be easy winners.

j. Burdin, representing the CON-
mercial interests of st. Martinville
which are deeply interested in the
movement to improve Bayou
Teche and to open q direct water
route from that place to New Or
lesus by way of Bayou Black, b.
you Terrebonne and Company Ca
nal, had a conference yesterday
with Major Quinn on the subject.
Mr.. Burdin stated that one of
the great obstacles to the project
was the lack of interest of the peo-
pie of Houma. 1t appeared that
the business men of that place
failed to take advantage of the OPP
portunity to secure q direct water
way to New Orleans. One reason
Why this new way should be open
ed to traffic was said to be because
the railroads were unable to expe-
dite shipments.

This is one of the most serious
and most horrible murders ever
committed in Louisiana. This at

composed of the dangerous, low
and degraded class of Italians now
living in the State. The work of
this band of murderers is pretty

mittee and the police of New Or
leans, and it is to be hoped that
the investigation will be continued
until every one who had hand in
the kidnapping and the murder
will be brought to the gaIlows,
Nothing will satisfy the people OF
this State except the hanging OF
every member of the Black Hand
Society. The good work should
be continued aud every suspect
who cannot give a good account OF
himself should be ordered to leave
this State. We are getting two
many of the scums and criminals
of other countries. The time to
put stop to it and to clean up is
right now.

My dear Editor:

My dear Editor:
l hear on all sides great deal
of difference of opinion as to
whom shall be selected by the Po-
lice Jury as accountants to exa-
mine the books of the several pa
rish officials handling parish funds.
For my part, wish to say and
want the public to know that 1 am
highly in favor of the most tho
rough kind of an examination Of
all the different accounts dealing
with parish money. If the people
desire an investigation and l know
they do, let it be most complete.
Let me say also, that l am of The
firm conviction that sufficiently
thorough and complete examina-
ton can be obtained only 80 far
as best known, most competent
public accountants are employed
TO do the work. To do this work
properly, it is of the greatest i'm
portance to engage the services Of
men such as are described above,
men who have made it their bust
ness to examine aud report upon
lust such matters, men entirely
free from local or fractional infiu-
ences of any character whatever.
1t is of no use whatsoever to exa-
mine the books at all, unless the
purpose is the securing of some
reliable information as to their
condition, 1 for one, am entirely
willing to submit to the most ex-
haustive examination of my books
by any competent authority. Iu
justice to the people who elected
me and as a personal satisfaction
to myself 1 feel it my duty to well
come such an examination.
Respectfully Yours

A Good Heart-A Beautiful
Face.

"A good heart makes a good
face-perhaps not beautiful or
classical face, but one that is fine,
sincere and noble, one that will
shine with God behind it.
There are some faces that are
quiet. that at times even have q
warm glow upon them. There are
faces that are quiet and uninter-
esting in repose, but that light up
amazingly with the animation of
talking. There are some people
who can never get a good photo
graph because the camera cannot
catch the subtle sparkle of the
eye, in which the whole individu-
ality lies.
There are some whom you would
not at fret call handsome, whose
faces grow on You with constant
acquaintance until they become
beautiful to you, for you see the
soul shining, you see the splendor
of a noble character. "-soUTHEkN

j. Gottschall, Monay afternoon.
The couple had been married more
than 20 years and have two child
ren, one married daughter, and
the other a boy of IS.
Gottschall's love for music seems
to have figured among the causes
of his domestic troubles. According
to the story told on the stand by
Mrs. Gottschall, her husband fu
nished her on an average of SO
week to pay for eatables and to
buy clothing. Yet during their mar
ried life, he bought four costly
violins. Gottschall is employed by

Mrs. Gottschall is now living

dered Gottschall to pay his wife
SO a week alimony until further

He sank into a seat and, with a deep
sigh, opened the book. He lost no
time in finding his place, but he SEEM

in great evaporation to his neighbor
and remarked:
Now, wouldn't that jar you? I've
been paying for this encyclopedia for
the last two years, and never had oc-
casion to use It before. A new client,

Copper Mining Good Trade.

Contrary to general belief, copper
mining is healthy work, and the aver
age of life here reaches 80 years, for
the composition of the ore has an ex-
tremely strengthening effect on the
blood and nerves. Few copper miners
die before they reach the age of SO or
"a. But on the other hand the copper
smelter is lucky II he sees so.
Whiskey is bad to drink, but it's
distilling is health giving, and fatal
foe to disease germs of nearly every
kind. Distillery workers show the ex-
cellent average of 81 years of life
and seldom suffer from illness unless
given TO intemperance.
Oddly enough, barring accidents,
there would be no trade to beat the
steepleiacks for keeping life going.
The task of working at great heights
from the ground keeps the nervous
system in perfect order, and that is
two-thirds of the battle. Steeple,
jacks who are not killed by accident
show the magnificent average Of SO
years.
