crat.
Y aehlngton june lO-tt the
earnest re- licSt Of those who are
trying to improve the Bayou Icchc,
\ Representative Broussard TO-DAY
called at the War Department to
find out, if possible. how they can
comply with a PROV ision Of IL.
iast river and harhor law which
says that before the Improvement
Is undertaken, ST. Martin parish
| shall GIVE satisfactory indemnity :
bond guaranteeing the payment Of
damages III the event any may be-
caused hY overflow coming from
the Improvement changes. Mr..
Broussard VAS accompanied ~ Re
preventative Alexander, ranking
member and probable chairman Of
the Rivers and llarhOrs Committee.
\ bond signed ny the police jury
and some OF the hig property own
crs Of the parish has been given
It, however, is not satisfactory to
Attorney General Wickersham
MIR Wickcrsham disapprovcd il
because, under the laws of Lour4i-
ana, the police jury can moi antici-
pate its revenues, or bind itself
for the future Hc holds that the
bond is perpetual in its nature, and
as signed hy individuals il is not
acceptable. a bonding company
would not sign il on the ground
that ii was from its very nature
a perpetual undertaking.
According TO the Views of Col.
Lansing II. Beach, the district en-
gineer Of New Orleans,the whole
thing is worse than the making Of
mountain out Of a mole hill. He
considers it very improbable that
any overflow will result from the
proposed Improvement. For that
reason he deems a bond for $4,000
ample to cover any possible dam
age.
1t was agreed that he should be
asked to put his opinion in an Of
ficial communication to the chief |
of engineers, so that Congress can |
act on advice on a joint resolution |
to be offered by Mr. BrOussard, re-
peaIing that part of the law requir
ing the giving of a bond. But
hat resolution can not be acted
lpOn until next winter, SO Mr.
BrOussard will ask Attorney Gen
raj Wickersham to agree to some
empOrary arrangement that will
permit the work to proceed with
,ut interruption.

RAILROAD MASS
MEETING.

The meeting at the Opera House
on Thursday evening was very in
teresting for all who attended
Mayor Elect J. s. Power presided
and introduced the speakers in
the following order: Hon. w. J..
Burke, Messrs. f.. j. Carstens, Jules
Dreyfus and f. NJ. Welch.
Mr.. Burke's argument was clean
cut and forccful. He fully analized
the situation and thoroughly an
sWered the arguments of the cob
JectOrs' to the proposed railroad
tax. He showed clearly, by de-
oision of the Supreme Court, that
the people could not be forced to
pay the tax if the road was not
put in operation by the 31st day of
next December. He lucidIy ex-
planned all the legal points bear
ing upon the voting of the tax and
clearly indicated just how far
the people bound themselves by
voting the tax. He advised all not
to pay the tax, If successfully car
ried in Mondays election, before
the road is put in operation.
His remarks clearly indicated
that the peOpel are about to ente,
a contract with the railroad Pro-
mOters on a c. O. ID. basis for a
railroad
The Promoters cannot call this
road into existence by magic in five
or ten days. 1t is therefore clear.
that if the Promoters do nothing
till December, there will be no tax
TO pay. On the other hand, Il the
tax is to be paid, the 1st OF next
December will indicate the fact
very clearly by the progress made
by the road builders.

A USE FOR THE KNOCKERS.

Recently two gentlemen were
discussing the boil wcevil when one
remarked that "the pest could not
be drowned and freezing incon-
vcnicnced them but little. On
the other hand they multiplied ra-
pidly. Under these circumstan-
ces the situation was not very re
assuring.
81 have pIan,' remarked the
other, (Which if put in operation
would rid iberia parish of the pest
in few weeks.
Lets have your plan. We will
advocate any plan giving promise
"W ell, there is where the plan
is Weak-there must be concerted
action. II the New IBERIA knockers
would only take their hammers in
to the country and turn their
knocking on the boil weevil they
would then accomplish something
useful and do their fellow men a
good turn. What do you say?"

THAT RAILROAD TAX

June nth, 1909
To the Tax Payers:
The undersigned, having been re-
quested to make an investigation
OF the issues raised, to the effect
that in the event of the non-con-
structiOn of the New Iberia, st.
Martin 4 Northern Railroad with
in the time limit fixed by the pro-
position submitted to the tax-pay-
ers the tax would, never the less,
be cOllectible and collected to the
detriment of the Taxpayers, have
given thorough consideration to
the matter and submit:
The proposition submitted is that
the proceeds of special tax be
paid to the railroad company, pro-
vided the road be constructed and
trains be operated before the 31st
of December of this year; that if
the tax be voted, although the
Police Jury and the City Council of
New Iberia will be called upon to
enact the ordinances authorizing
and directing the coll, .tiOn of the
tax, the taxpayer is not called up
on to pay this tax and cannot be
made to pay it by any authority
before the railroad will have com
piled with its part OF the contract,
i.e., the completion and operation
of the road; that there is abso-
lutely no penalty attached to the
nOn-payment of this special tax
as is the case with reference to
taxes imposed by the State, par
ochial or municipal authorities.
This we state upon the authority
of very elaborate opinion of the
Supreme Court OF this State, re-
ported in the 104 Louisiana Re-
ports, page 2Sl.
The conclusion which we reach
and of which we advise The tax
payers is that they should pay
their State, parochial and munich
pal taxes within the time required
oy law, but that they should alb
stain from paying the special rail-
Dad tax until after the completion |
md operation of the road, even |
hOugh the non-payment of this
special tax should extend beyond
he year 1909, and that there can
'e imposed on them no special
money penalty for the nOn-pay-
nent or this tax. In this manner
he taxpayer will part WIN his
money only after the railroad COM
,any will have compiled with it's
Ontract.
Respectfully submitted,
A. j. CAMMACK

that few, outside of the voters
appreciated that an election was
on. The voters, being practically
bunch of straight tickets, were
quickly counted, and the result

The vote shows that factioual
