Tick Eradication Resumed.

The bureau of animal industry of
the United States department of agri-
culture is resuming active operations
for the eradication of the cattle ticks
which prevail in the southern part Of
the country and transmit the cOnta-
gion of Texas fever of cattle. It's
men are being sent into the field and
preparations are being made TO push
the work of determination vigorously
during The warm weather, when the
ticks are most active.
Since the work was begun. two
years ago, an area OF about $1,000
square miles, or almost the size of
the state of Georgia, has been freed
from the ticks. AS result the quar-
antine on southern cattle has been
either modified or entirely removed
from this area, Last year work was
done to greater or less extent in
the states of Virginia, North Carolina,
South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama,
Tennessee, Kentucky, Missouri. Ar
Kansas, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Texas
and California, and it is proposed.
this year to continue in the same
states with the addition of small
portion of Mississippi. Most of the
work has been and will continue to be
done in sections contiguous to the
quarantine line, the object being to
push the line farther south from year
to year: but encouragement Is given
to local work in any part Of the
quarantine district in the assurance
that when any considerable area is
rendered tick free it will be released
from quarantine.
The work is being done by coopera-
ton between the federal government
aud the state and local authorities.
Congress has appropriated $3.50, 600
for the year beginning July |, and it
is expected that the states and coun-
ties where the work is carried on will
duplicate this sum. The committee on
appropriations of the house OF repre-
sentatiyes expressed itself very strong-
" to the effect that the states should
tear a reasonable share Of the cost
and that tne FEDERAL work should be
mainly confined 10 states where CO.

Parish Division.

a. lSt
It costs now $4,000 for the collection
of the parish taxes, with four parishes
the cost to the people would be S2O,-
600 instead Of S. 900, for the cost IN
each new parish would be the same.
The sheritf's criminal fees that now
amount to d 81, 900 would then amount
to 81 900. 1t would be the same way
with the assessor. For schools, roads
and other essential features the tax is
but six mills. Would the different
parishes be furnished, with betterroads,
schools and other accessories under
separation than nOw?-Lake Charles
Press.
From the above. it will be seen by
those who are not afflicted with total
blindness, that parish division at the
present would be losing proposition.
At this stage of the game Calcasieu is
not ready for division. When 1t be-
comes necessary for this parish to be
divided, it will undoubtedly be done.
True, little time might be saved by
those living in a remote part of the
parish in reaching the court house or
in attending to legal business, but,
would the amount of time thus saved
offset the great expenditure necessary
to erect court houses, jails, ETC., and
the maintenance of same? Wherefore
the decision by thinking, cOnserva-
tive men that at the present time, at
least, it would be an unwise move.
There is about as much logic In the
argument of the advocates of parish
division as there was in the argument
of the negro who bought corn at fifty
cents a bushel and after hauling it
ten miles to market, sold it at fifty
cents a bushel. He never made any
thing, he said, but just look at the
DuSlu6SS liz "dS uOlllS.
1t is not a difficult matter to aScer-
certain The cause Of this move for
parish division. 1t would let lot of
petty officials follow the shade around
the court house and draw their per
diem without the trouble of exercising
their brain and muscle. OF course
these wOuld-be officials have some
following, but it is earnestly hoped
not enough to say whether the parish
shall be divided. For the majority of
the people residing in Calcasieu it
would not better conditions, and it
were well to let well-enOugh alone. If
the parish allows itself to be sliced up
indiscriminately by the proprietor of
soapy tongue, who had dream
that the parish ought to he divided,
and conceived the idea of getting
office between drinks. it will be found
that the rate of taxation will increase
with rapiditv that would make the
stock market take Il back seat. At
present, the rate of taxation is lower
than it has ever been, and all of the
affairs of the parish are in splendid
condition. What would it be if the
expenditure of thousands of dollars
annually became necessary to erect
and maintain court houses, jails, and
other public Buildings, and to pay the
salaries of lot of men born with
that tired feeling? Verify, the divis-
ion of Calcasieu at present would
only serve to submerge the would-be
new parishes into debt, and cost the
people more in the longrun, all
things considered, than it does now.

saturdays Game, Welsh vs.. Iowa.

The Welsh base ball team met their
Old-time enemy, Iowa, on the diamond
last Saturday and defeated them by a
score Of to ,. BY bunch Of errors
in the first inning Iowa was allowed
to make two scores. But Welsh com
ing down from viewing the stars shut
Iowa out for the last eight innings.
The support the Welsh boys gave
their pitcher, Dietrich, was something
to be proud of, the team making but
three errors the whole game. Welsh
scored once in the first inning, once
in the second and twice in the fifth
Russell behind the bat for Welsh
played an errorless game, but it took
the Iowa players some time to find
out that he could throw to the bases,
catching five men on second. The
battery for Welsh were Dietrich and
Russell; Iowa, Longenbaugh and
Wells.
Patterson umpired a fair and i'm
partial game.
Next Saturday the Welsh team goes
to Iowa for practice game. Boys,
get out and practice and bring home
the victory.

PLANNING PURE
FOOD EXHIBIT
MANAGER McGAW PREPARING TO
ADD ANOTHER FEATURE TO
COUNTY FAIR.
RETAIL GROCERS WILL HELP
Manufacturers of Foods Expected To
Furnish monstrations.-Lo-
cal Interest Keen.

Manager McGaw of the Maury Coun-
ty Fair Association has taken up the
matter OF pure food exhibit at the
fall fair with the Retail Grocers' Asso-
citation of Columbia and the associa-
ton has agreed to take the matter
up with a view of having one of the
largest and most Illuminating exhibits
of pure food products ever shown in
the state and perhaps in the south.
The Grocers' Association will hold a
meeting at an early date and put the
plan on foot They will communicate
with the larger manufacturers of pure
food products and get them to assist
in the exhibit, which they will be
glad to do for it will afford the best
possible advertisement of their prod
ucts and will bring them directly be-
fore the housewives, who will have an
opportunity of becoming familiar with
the products and their advantages and
will therefore be sure to give many Of
them the preference in future buying.
These exhibits have been held in
many of the larger cities and have
always been large and successful.
They have without exception attracted
much favorable attention and have
proven an education to the people and
enabled them to avoid many of the
deleterious products which are placed
on the market under high-sounding
names, but are wanting in purity and
in nourishing qualities. This exhibit
if property prepared and arranged
and under the direction of Manager
McGaw this feature will be properly
cared for--should take up a large
space in the floral hall and should fur
nish one of the most attractive fea-
lures at the fair.

EDITOR YOUNG

FEELING ENGENDERED OVER
ELECTION AT MT. PLEASANT
RESULTS IN FIGHT.

MT. PLEASANT, Tenn, May Tn
terest in the Governors race has been
sidetracked here for the past few days
by the contest for Aldermen. Three
vacancies were filed at an election
yesterday. DR.. J. E. Anderson, c. G..
Ross and w. ]. Howard were the in
cumbents whose terms expired, and
all of whom were candidates for re-
election, the former two from the city
at large, the latter from the First
Ward. Howard had no OPPOSITION, but
last Friday ]. w. Griffin and Wave
Farris came out in OPPOSITION to An
derson and Ross. The opposition can
didates were too late in getting into
the race to have their names put on
the official ballot, but in spite of this
fact Anderson and Ross won by only
majority of votes.
A great deal of feeling was worked
up in the race, which resulted in Can
didate Griffin and the editor of the Mt.
Pleasant Record, M. B. Young, having
a clash. The contestants were sep
arated before any material damage
was done. The cause of the trouble
was a publication in the Record to
which Griffin took exception.
