urging the Board to do its duty and
investigate the conduct of its officials.
The Board should say that the Sher-
If was guilty or not guilty. 1t was
its duty to do SO. Hustace did not
see why laukea had taken the matter
to the Attorney General and not to
the County authorities. The public
expected the Board to do its duty and
make full investigation. It was not
Il question of bribery which the
Board should take up, but the mat

Kealoha moved, with Archer's Sec

three be appointed to investigate the
matter. This was passed unanimous

Fern wanted to withdraw in favor
of Hustace, but Hustace declined,
stating that he had been regarded as
an enemy of the Sheriff, although he
was by no means such, and IL he
should take part in the investigation
he would be accused of being after
the Sheriffs scalp.

Hampstead County Leyee District Prac- tiaally Completes Eight Miles
 of EmbankmeHt

The writer was a guest of the Hampstead County Levee Board few days last week in a tour of inspection of the levee work in the vicinity of Fulton. The trip to the end of the levee at BuZZZard'S Bluff, was made on the steamer Ellen with Capt. T. F.. p parsons in charge. The captain is a veteran on Red River whose treacherous current he under stands thoroughly and people al- ways feel safe when he is in charge of a craft. He has never been known to get a boat intoise ious trouble, and his experience is not confined to the Red River alone for he is well known on all 1 southern waters.
 The party included Messrs. B. Shers, Battle Cox, Shults and Dr. Hays and a more congenial crowd would be difficult to find. The most skilled coolred cook of the section and been employed and he was supplied with en- ough provisions to feed a small regiment. They never do things by halves down there. Those meals will ever be delightful memory.
 Buzzards' Bluff which was our destination is a geological phen- omena that rises fifty feet above | the rivers level and is about 300 acres in area. Where the river has washed into it's steep sides a rock formation which is said to be petrified hickory is shown.

The present trend of the treacherous current indicates a fate for Full ton that has come to Pine Bluff, for the long bend fn the iriver is throiw ng the current hard a. gainst the bank at a point where the most valuable business pro- perty stands and fully a block of crumbling sand has been washed away.
 The government has begun work on this section of Red River but the views of the engineers do not meet the approval of the pro- perty holders Of the S10O,OO0 ap- prOpriated by Congress, S25. 900 was spent for a palatial and lux uriously equipped snag boat. to remove trees and rubbish to make the stream more navigable and give the current un-obstructed passage. Reliable reports say that the cost of removing these snags has been about S450 per, about S75,0OO having already been expended and the property holders twhO are at the mercy of the river regard this as wanton eXtravagance, when the sum al ready expended would have built miles and miles of levees that would have insured crops. for next year. The building of the levees and strengthening the course of the river is the csolu- tion of the problem according to belief of the property holders, who have had life times eX- perience with the stream The government will not sanction any change in the rivers course, but have leveed the stream from the Arkansas line where the work stopped. The difference in the
 land values is remarkable since the leveed portion of Louisiana sells quickly at S100 per acre while the same unprotected land in Arkansas is slow sale at S5 and S10 an acre Think of the increase in taxes and revenues that would follow if good crops and high priced land abounded throughout this rich valley. 200 miles in length and 100 miles in width.

The fund is exhausted. The leg;sla- ture recently passed an act mak- ing 1t a penal offence forpthegov- ernor or any state official to in cur a debt in the name of thestate over the appropriation made for such purposes. By exceeding the contingent fund, the governor has violated this act. Gov. pindall says 1t was mandatory upon him t omake the appointment, and ex- poets the legislature to unques- 'tionably pay the bill. Gov Pin dall says there would have been no deficiency in the contingent fund but from the fact he drew his first S1.0OO of salary there- from. Gov. Pindall states that af- ter that time he secured money from other sources upon which to maintain himself, and turned the governors salary over to the family of Gov, John $. Little.
