The citizens of the good old
parish of st. Martin are now Civ
ing vent to their grievance against
the Atchafalaya Levee Board for
not affording them the promised
protection from floods in certain
parts of their parish and they
have gone to the Governor and
called his attention to the evils
complained of. They claim that
they have paid an enormous
amount for protection against
floods in recent years, but that is
vet to come. st. Martin is as
fertile a parish as any in the State
and many valuable lands within
it's confines are worthy of re-
clamation, and the subject mat
ter ought to and will no doubt re-
ceive all the attention it deserves.

The Good Roads Movement.

The movement set on foot by
Governor Sanders for good roads
throughout the State, and his
campaigning on that importa at
system of improvement, is en-
listing the attention of the people
in every rural locality. The
country parishes of the State
have always been cursed with a
system of public roads the worse
that could be found anywhere,
and the losses to the commerce OF
every locality through this source
have been immense. There is
not a class more interested in
good public roads at all times
than the farming elements, for the
hauling of their products to the
local markets or to the nearest
railroad or steamboat shipping
point, for the protection of their
teams, and, what is more, for the
evident reason that good roads
adds great value to their hold
ings and makes lands more de-
sirable and more attractive to
the newcomers DESTROYS of en-
gaging in the noble pursuit OF
agriculture. 1t may truly be said
that there are in Louisiana, in
every parish, hundreds of acres
Of highly fertile lands which are
forced to remain idle for the sole
reason that the public roads Lead
ing to and fro are at all times al
most impracticable.
The road laws which have pre-
vailed heretofore, under the en-
forcement of police juries, have
not been sufficient to keep the
highways in the needed condition
and the funds derived from tax
alton have always proven insult
ficient. While some parishes
have been fortunate enough to
engage road contractors, still the
work has not been such as to
make their public highways per-
manently good at all times. The
coming of the automobile has
forced the necessity for good pub
lie roads on the city or town
man, as we'll, and therein
lies d blessing for the farm
ing element, who were here
tofore all alone in the advocacy
of this important public improve
ment. Governor Sanders has
undertaken a great and benificent
improvement for the State in his
good roads movement and the
good it will do every community
is simply incalculable. Let every
good citizen put his shoulder to
the wheel and help him bring it
to the fullest possible measure of
success.

"In almost every home there
usually to be found some carpets
that because of either shabbiness
or extreme ugliness have been
banished to the attic" says
Woman's Home Companion for
September. "These can be turned
into a most attractive kind OF rug.
The carpets are sent to the
maker, who has them cleaned and
raveled and then woven into a
soft, fluffy surface of nondescript
tone, with a border of contrasting
color. These fluffy rugs are
among the best of the cheap rugs
and do not look cheap at all, and
it is pleasant surprise to see
how many useful and charming
rugs can be made from a SEEM
ingly hopeless old carpet. To
have them made costs about one
dollar a square yard, making the
twelve-by-nine size costs twelve
dollars. The maker usually pays
express charges one way"

Money For WATERWAYS.

Senator Scott, of West Virginia,
says that not enough money is
being appropriated by Congress
for the improvement of the water
ways. The following statement
on the subject was made by him /:
"Good public roads and inland
waterways will solve the problem
of cheap freight rates. and they
go hand in hand together. l am
firmly convinced that our water
way improvement ought to be
carried on in a comprehensive
and systematic manner, as urged
by the National Rivers and Har-
bors Congress. Piece-meal ap-
preparations for streams, that will
never, in the very nature of
things, contribute to the upbuild-
ing of communities, should be
abandoned.
"What we need most is wisdom
behind our legislation for water
ways, and by that I mean that
the future should bear it's proper
ton in the development of our
water courses as thespresent.
"If current revenues are not
sufficient to provide for yearly
expenditures of money to develop
our great natural highways, then
l, for one. will vote for a bond is
sue of sufficient amount to make
possible the Harvesting of the
Ohio, the control of the Mississ-
ippi and the opening up of a
water route from Lake Erie to the
Gulf.
tThe Ohio river is being inn
proved too slowly, and it is dis
couraging to the business man
who figures upon the earning
power of every penny to see his
receipts dwindle because of the
lack of water transportation for
6ulkier freight.
"What l would like to see is
inland navigation from the lakes
to the peninsula, and when the
steamboats, come back again upon
our rivers then the high tide Of
our prosperity will be reached"

TRACKLESS TROLLEYS.

In reply to-a communication from a
Pacific improvement company, Consul
General Al. M. Thackara, of Berlin, fur
nishes the following information con-
corning trackless trolley lines:
There is no electric line of this char
acter in Mannheim. At Eberswalde,
Germany, in 1901, there was an expert
mental trackless trolley system installed
by a Berlin engineer, but after being in
operation a little more than five months
it was withdrawn. A report from this
consulate general, giving the details of
the construction OF the Eberswalde line,
was printed in Daily Consular and
Trade Reports for March "a, 1906:
There is a trackless trolley line in
operation between Plotzleinsdorf and
Salmannsdorf, suburbs of Vienna, about
1877 miles in length. 1t passes through
an unusually small and narrow street
with many sharp turns, broken by
steep grades and sudden declines. 1t
is necessary for the omnibuses along
the route to climb many long stretches
having a grade of 1 to 10. This is q
double line. arranged go that the cars
going back and forth car pass each
other without interruption.
From statistics furnished by the di-
rector of the street a system OF
Vienna, the total cost of the construc-
ton of the plant, exclusive of altera-
ton of roads which may be rendered
|pecessary, and which the road officials
would be obliged to provide for
amounts to $44,253. The same author.
|ity estimates the annual running ex-
penses of the line at $9,873, and the re-
|ceipts from passengers at $s,S94, a loss
