"Aint 1t awful Mabel?" Yes. and we hear the "cops" are raising a little rum pus. They claim they are not being paid enough per day and have peti- tioned the board of public safety for al, increase. We'll, we don't know what pay they do receive, but If they are receiving $3 or $S.50 per day 1t Is enough, say $1.15 per day for walking around, 75 cents per day for looking pleasant and the other dol lar for Keeping awake while on duty; but $3.50 is surely enough for the blue coated, brass buttoned street WdikcrS, anu the poiiCe poaiu ehouiu get nine months in jail for tining "cop" for not arresting a little boy for doing something he did not see and knew nothing about.

WHY NOT PAVE THE BUSl-
NESS STREET?

The principal street being the
one most used and the hardest
used, and also the most conspic'
nous should be the best street
and the most slightly. There
fore, both to meet the service.
not to mention the Improvement
in looks, the principal street
should be paved in every town
that can afford it.
Lafayette is becoming quite a
town. 1t now boasts OF about
1000 inhabitants and its business
street already has a number OF
substantial brick stores. From
which it appears that it has
reached the class of towns which
can afford to pave its principal
street.
The maintenance of the prin-
cipal street in a condition suit
able to the size and Importance
Of q town requires a certain
amount of money, in our case it
has required a considerable
amount in shells, work and
cleaning. The time has now
come, we believe, when it is a
question whether it is a matter
of either wisdom or economy to
continue the present method OF
looking after the principal bust
ness street, and the resulting
unsatisfactory condition of the
street, or to begin paving it.
A certain sum has to be ex'
pended on the street every year
and by adding to this amount, il
should be possible to pave one
or two blocks every year. These
paved blocks would be perma
nent and in a few years the com
plete paving of the street woult
be accomplished, we think, with
out an undue strain upon tn
finances of the town. Anyway
the question of paving the stree
should be taken up and discuss
ed with the view of finding tn,
easiest and least burdensom'
method of doing it. Lafayette
is certainly big enough and i'm
pOrtant enough to have a paved
business street.

His test consists of placing a quantity

tube is then revolved, as in the Bah

The laws provide for equal ac-
cOmmOdatiOnS in this respect
and the railroad companies
should be forced to obey them,
but in the case of sleeping and
dining cars complications at once
arise which are calculated to
worry the railroad companies
and others in the event that a
serious effort is made to enforce
the ideas of the President.
There is a little reason to be
lieve the railroad companies
could afford in the South to run
separate sleeping and dining cars
for the accommodation of negro
passengers when so few of the
race would patronize such cars
even if the railroads put them on.
On the other hand it is evident
that no power on earth can force
the white people of the South to
occupy the same cars with ne
GrOes. and here is where
the problem will present itself if
the Presidents ideas are literally
enforced. Al best the negro is
only an occasional passenger for
any considerable distance, for
his travel is confined mainly to
short trips between local points
and to excursions. Therefore
no sleeping or dining cars could
be run through the Southern
States regularly without heavy
loss 70 the companies operating
them if it were dependent upon
the negro passengers entirely.
and it is certain as anything can
be that the whites would not en-.
ter those if the negroes were
also permitted to use them.
In other words our Washing
ton contemporary believes that
the Presidents order to the In
terstate Commerce Commission
was a sop thrown to the negro
voters who are inclined to be
hostile, and that no serious eff
fort will be made to require the
railroad companies to furnish
separate sleeping and dining
cars for negroes or to force the
negroes into such cars used by
white people. All things consid-
cred we think that the Washing
ton Herald's view of the matter
is correct, for there can be no
doubt that if an attempt be made
to mix the races in dining or
sleeping cars in the South their
operation by the railroads would
have to be abandoned.
