rates. ...
The rates vary according to the
risk. The Foti brick building is
rated at 1.55 per cent, Bank of St.
Martinville, one per cent, Garde.

per cent. Now compare this to

Bayou to Main street where the
rates run from 3.15 TO 7 and on
Main street from jefferson street
to Bridge street AS to 900.
Some time ago an agent of the
State Fire Prevention. Bureau was
here and made an inspection. He
suggested certain improvements
which would to some extent re-
duce the rates, but it appears that
uothing was done as the Secretary

posed to the imposition of this tax
upon our people without their con-
sent and thought that as the bud
get had already been made, it was
not legal at this time to add this
burden upon the already overtax-
ed people.
The District Attorney was con-
shifted, but could not give his OPT

The following day the District
Attorney gave his opinion that

time.
At this meeting were present
Messrs. Guilbeau, Resweber, Do
nee and Begnaud.
MIR. Guilbeau objects to the pas.
sage of the ordinance 10 increase
the taxation by levying Il two mills
tax for school purposes for the
following reasons:
First: Because the District At
torney, in open session NOW de-
clares that this Police Jury, under
the law of this State, has not the
legal right NOW to levy this tax.
Second:-Because Police Juries
are required by law to adopt a
budget of taxes, Licenses and ex-
penditures for year determined
in that buget and that year must
be named in the ordinance adop-
ting that buget which must then
be published thirty days under
the law to meet the amount of tax
es thus fixed by that ordinance.
Third:-Because when this is
done no change can be made to
that buget after its publication ex-
cept by will of the taxpayers.
Fourth: Because if the tax le-
WED and to be appropriated for
school purposes is deemed insult
ficient for that purpose in said
buget the only way to increase
and TO levy additional taxes for
that purpose is by special election
under act 131 of 1898 as amended
by acts la and 176 of 1902.
The ordinance was voted upon
and adopted. Mr.. Guiibeau,
though opposed to the ordinance
voted for it, aud explained that &C.
cording to parliamentary law, it
was necessary that he should cas-,
his vote for the measure in order
to have the right to have the mat
ter reconstructed at the next meet
ing of the Police Jury, and gave
notice to that effect.
We believe MIR. Guilbeau took
the proper stand, the people should
not be burdened with additional
taxation without their consent.
If the School Board is in need
of more money, they should have
made public q statement OF the
financial affairs of the past year
showing the amount of money re.
ceived from all sources, the amount
expended, and giving a statement
of what is expected this year from
all sources, and if more money is
needed, a statement of the amount
needed would be an inducemenv
for the people to favor the tax
but not until they are fully &C
quainted with the affairs of the
School Board.

the suggestions have been or will
be complied with. we assume that
the authorities do not intend to
make any improvements"
We do not know that the i'm
provements recommended are fea-
sible, but it seems that the matter
should be looked into and every
thing possible made with a view
of reducing the fire insurance
rates.
If we can, we should reduce the
rates, as we consider it most i'm
portant that every individual
should carry insurance and pro.
tect himself against the dangers of
fire.

EoRMINe LEAeuE-At A W.

FORMING lEAGUE.-At A. w. Galpin's store yesterday afternoon q meeting was held of the representa- tives of three local baseball aggrega- tions and the old board of directors, when plans were discussed to take hold of the baseball affairs and bring them out of the chaotic state into which they had fallen. Any eX-ball- player is requested to give his name to President Galpin and he will be con sidered by the board at it's next meet ing. Already enough good men for two American and one Mexican team have been found available. The Ann erican teams will play under the cog nomen of local lodges or local business houses. Backing has been offered both new hines, and it is a matter of selection when the time comes. Ru- dolph will have charge of the lineup of one, while Magoffin and Attorney Leyhe will look after the other team
 As now planned all three teams will be well matched. each of the new az gregations being provided with two pitchers, a regular catcher and a sub stitute, and eleven members in all. The Maroons are already in good shape with Delgado pitching the best ball he has tossed for a long time. He re- gently pitched a two hit game against Prescott. Herzberg has plenty of men for a fast nine. The league will be run on much the same basis as before, except that the teams will play for 40 and 60 per cent of each game, with perhaps a 3 per cent deduction to go into the league treasury to guarantee the payment of all bills. The schedule has not been arranged but will prob ably start on the first Sunday in Oc- tober, and each team will play an equal number of games, perhaps F each. All the players will be signed up to the league and receive an equal division of the money, except the bat teries, which may be paid a double share. If the boys get in and work hard there is no reason why a series as good as that pulled off in the spring can not be played Later on a few fast players may be imported and given positions.

To Have Quarantine Guard.

Because they insist in breaking
quarantine with scarlet fever in their
homes a portion OF Leads populace
rendered the city physicians unable
to check the spread of the disease. To
meet this condition a special meeting
of the mayor and city council, health
board and physicians of the city was
called and the seriousness of the stu.
alton discussed. For three weeks past,
under a ruling of the city physician,
every member of a household where
case of scarlet fever existed, has
been quarentined, whether at home
when the case was discovered or not,
but this was found ineffective. Spe.
cial police now will be used to guard
each quarantined house, but the work

tinue at work after thorough fumiga.

health rules will be punished by a

will go upon the tax rolls this year
through final proofs, the real estate
valuation of the state will be increas'

that source alone. Most of the lands
on which proof have been made the
last year are in counties in which the
assessment price runs from $540 an
acre to $13 an acre, only one county
going to the lower figure. The re-
turns from the land Offices at Pierre,
Chamberlain and Aberdeen show 5,400
new proofs and the other two offices
easily will run the total above 5000.
Stanley county alone shows 1885 new
proofs, which will add about 375.000
