From Lake,

Mr.. L. Livet has just compile
ted the cleaning of Vermillion
bayou from Pin Hook bridge to
Lake Charlo.
A num- Der of citizens subscrib-
ed to a fund to defray the ex-
penses, but the amount would
not have been sufficient if Mr..
Livet had not generously given of
his time and labor. With the
aid of his gasoline boat and sew
eral assistants Mr.. Livet be-
gan the work about four weeks
ago and by hard and steady
work has made the bayou navi
gable Tor small launches to Lake
Charlo. This will not alone be
of advantage to those who enjoy
fishing and boating, but the
pewing of the bayou will give
access to the cypress forests
along it's line. We are informed
that Messrs ThibOdeaux and
Fisher, a contracting firm, will
at once begin getting out 100000
cypress cross ties from near the

he personally would vote for the
Republican nominee rather than
for Mr.. Lambremont. His speech
was frequently and vigorously
applauded.
The resolutions were then
read as follows:
"As firm believers that all election
votes should be honestly cast and
honestly counted as cast and in the
cardinal principle that the rule of the
majority is the supreme law of the
Democratic party, and in order to pre-
vent a disruption of the organization
of the Democratic party and secure to
the nominees honestly entitled thereto,
the support of all the Democrats of

antly answered by him.
In his talk to the meeting Mr..
Lambremont stated that he was
the rightful nominee of the
party, for even deducting the
votes declared to be fraudulent
by Mr.. Bailey and throwing out
boxes where fraud is charged he
still had majority of over 400
votes.
Mr.. Lambremont is a skillful
speaker and presented his case
excellently we'll, but his au.
dience, while having no ill
feeling against him person
ally-and he was assured SO
by all the speakers were so
convinced that he had been given
the nomination because of frauds
in New Orleans, that his appeal
to the creoles to stand by the
nominee of the party announced
by their representatives, the
State central committee. fell on
deaf ears.
And the ears became deafer
when in reply to Mr.. Campbell's
question as to why he refused to
accept service in New Orleans
which he could have done when
summoned to court by Mr..
Bailey, he took advantage of his
technical right to service in st.
James and thus prevented a
court inquiry into the charges o!
fraud, he answered that he had
placed his case in the hands of
his lawyers and left it to them to
conduct the case.
In conclusion Mr.. Lam Fremont
stated that he would be the next
lieutenant governor and that lie
proposed so serve the people the
best he knew how; that he had
said before the primary he
favored Lafayette as the location
should the State establish q
second Normal School. He still
felt that Lafayette was the place
on account of having the Indus
trial school and because of its
central location; that should q
bill be introduced establishing 9
Normal School he would favor
Lafayette. saying Though God
knows the people of Lafayette
, don't like me-"
At the conclusion of Mr., Lam
bremonts address Mr. Campbell
made a brief talk in favor of the
resolutions and comdemning the
bosses of New Orleans.
Mr.. I. A. Broussard ther
spoke iustifying, Mr.. Lambre

as there were other candidates

two days here. He is an old friend Of
the editor OF The sun, the acquaint
ance having been formed when the
Major was postmaster at Cedar Key
in the 70's and the lwriter was q
mere youth. Major Fowler and our
father were together in California
during the great gold excitement Of
the Dos. and many are the interesting
experiences we have listened TO them
relate. The Major was a member Of
the constitutional convention OF 1885
as well as at one time State Senator
from Putnam county. where he enjoy
ed an extensive law practice being at
torney for the Florida Southern rail-
way, which position he relinquished in
favor Of Col Robert w. Davis. Short
~ after the big fire in jacksonville
he sold his law library and removed
from PaIatka to st. Augustine In order
to get away from his large clientele,
but his services we're 30 continuously
sought after that he again engaged IN
active practice and he is today the
Oldest practicing attorney in the
state being SO years OF age. Major

HILL RIDES IN DUMP CART

Louis C. Hill. in charge of the re- clamation department of Arizona and New Mexico. sometimes rides in an automobile. at other times he rides in a dump cart It was a matter of choice with MT Hill, when he rode in the cart. He preferred 1t to walking for there was no other alternative. It happened thusly: He was making his regular trip to Roosevelt to look after the work on the Tonto dam when his auto suddenly refused to respond to his manipulation of the levers. He un- screwed the dingbat and opened the spark arrester. he gripped the throttle. he hung the monkey wrench on the safety valve. taking out his book of logarithms. he figured that the short est distance between two points must necessarily be a straight line, but still the dad burned machine wouldn't budge an inch. He discussed the ma chine at length. but some things will not go even with the United States government behind them. But Mir Hill is a man who goes to the noun tains when they do not come to him. so he clambered in a dump cart and rode to Fish creek where the machine was given treatment and he went on ihs way.
