derstand, a pamphlet issued by the
California state board Of trade. 1t
was interesting to note how, section
by section, the publication took up
the comparative annual quantities and
amounts of the many outputs OF the
soil, mountains and manufacturing
enterprises of the state and exploited
them in a manner to convince the
doubter and entice all other classes
of hOmeseekers.
Florida, about three years ago, did
possess a board of trade. Politics or
some other equally evil influence got
the better of it, however, and like
several other good intentions" it went
to help pave the roadway to-you
know where. But such a board, con-
Quoted on business principles, with
members who will brace up to think
a little less about themselves and a
great deal more about the state, is
what Florida needs. From a COM
mercial standpoint it needs few things
quite so much.

DOdging The La,c.

We read this week some reports
from New Iberia which had never
came to our notice before, and like
our own case. recently of selling
prisoners under Jail sentence, is q
clever way of beating the law.
The ballot box breakers of Ibe-
ria parish, who had broken a box
because that box went against
their candidates, pleaded guilty
when called to trial in the District
Court and Judge Simon senten-
ced them to a fine of $50 and two
months imprisonment in the pa
rish Jail.
The report says that the prison.
ers asked to make their Jail time
on the public roads which was
granted, and it is now rumored
that they will hire negroes to serve
their time on the roads.
If such a scheme is carried
through, it will not be long when
criminal sentenced to q term in
the penitentiary will be allowed to
hire some poor old negro to serve
his time in the penitentiary and
he will be allowed to enjoy his Ii.
berty as long as his substitute will
be on duty.
Political influence and money
will be the only powers to rule
in such cases and the law will fin.
ally come to be only for the poor
man.

Our School Board.

The school board for st. Martin
parish was called to meet here last
Friday. As will be seen by the
proceedings published in this
issue, prepared by Messrs. Gull
beau, Bienvenu and Gauthier, the
two sides of the board met at diff
ferent times.
The Guilbeau side has again
made several propositions for a
compromise, which up to this time
have not been accepted. The Oil
vier side has offered no compro-
mise whatever. and it is apparent
that only one thing will be accep-
table to that side, and that is a
complete submission, that DR.. OIL
vier and his side be given entire
aud absolute control of the board.
The Olivier side does not seem dis
posed to concede anything.
We believe the Guilbeau side
has gone as far as they could and
they have made propositions that
should have been accepted. and
one Of these propositions, if not &C.
copied or refuted, stands as an &C.
cusstlon of mismanagement of the
affairs of the board.
The fifth proposition reads as
fallows:
THAT the whole board request
that the state board send al ex-
pert accountant to audit the books
and records of the retiring board.
If the report shows that there has
been no irregularity committed by
the old board, misapplicstion of
the funds for one purpose to an
other, we no not mean for person
al benefit of members, using mo-
ney that belong to one ward or
school district; leniency or laxity
IN collecting funds, due to school
board, then the Olivier side to
have both the President and Su-
perintendent, otherwise the presi-
dent to be given the Guilbeau
side"
The above proposition appears
to be fair, and at the same time
stands as all accusation of loose
ness. There can be no COOL rea.
SONS why the books should not be
audited. if found correct the old
board should have it to its credit
that they have done their work
we'll, if not, they should bear the
blame.

Iu view of the fact that the State
Board having recommended Gov
ernor Sanders to remove the men,
bers of the Board should they fail
to organize withiHteu days, from
Jan. 22nd 1909 and Messrs. Gull
beau, Bienvenu and Gauthier, ha-
wing been advised by eminent
counsel that neither the Governor
nor the State Board of Education
have the power or authority to r..
move a member of the school
board elected by the people, should
the Governor carry this threat in
execution, the same will lead to
litigation and tying up Of the
schools Of this parish.
Meesrs. Guilbeau, Bienveuu and
Gsuthier have made the above
proposition to prevent such a state
of affairs, 80 that whatever may be
detrimental to our schools the
blame will not rest on them, but
on those who are responsible 10

er meeting. DR.. Olivier was pre-
sent when this statement was made
by Mr.. Favrot. and there and then
repeated that be would attend no
more meetings. DIR. Guilbeau
stated that the delay Of bis arrival
was caused by his attendance on
very sick lady. but that it was OIL
ly 11:30 and as all members were
present, a meeting could be held
at once. Mr.. Favrot then, on re-
quest of DR.. Guilbeau, Messrs.
Olivier. Carline and Dupuis were
asked by Mr.. Favrot to attend the
meeting. This they refused to do.
Messrs. Guilbeau. Bienvenu and
Gauthier asked Mr.. Favrot to call
a meeting to order, it being 11:30
q. M, and the other members be-
ing within sound of the voice.
Thus far several Intellectual at
tempts having been made to orgau-

FOR THE STATES SEAPORT.
The Deepening of the Channel
From Wilmington to the Sea-
shore
Charlotte Observer.

Charlotte Observer
In recent private letter from
Representative Goodwin, of the
sixth district, in reference to the
deepening of the channel from
Wilmington to the sea he says:
Il consider this one of the most
important matters for North
Carolina and that section of the
country generally now pending
before Congress. 1t is a matter
that cannot be agitated too much.
| have the support and influence
of the entire North Carolina del
egation and of many others in
behalf of this thirty-foot project,
and [ feel satisfied that it's ac-
complishment is assured"
Mr.. Goodwin truly says this is a
matter that cannot be agitated
too much. By agitation the peo-
pie will be made acquainted with
the advantages to them to be de-
rived from the carrying out Of
the plan, and learning of them
the people to be benefited will
become interested in the success
of the movement and will do
their part in the effort to make
it a success. There should be
not only a unity of public senti-
ment throughout the State and
this whole section in favor of the
Federal government giving Will
mington a thirty-foot channel to
the sea, but that sentiment
should make itself heard and
felt. If that is done then this
public sentiment will have its eff
feet where it can do good. A
unanimous desire among the peo-
pie for the proposed work will &c
no good unless given expression
to by words and acts. This is q
movement in behalf of the peo-
pie in all sections of the State
and they should give countenance
and aid to those who have taken
on themselves the burden OF
convincing the Federal govern
ment of the works great i'm
portance and securing the neces
sary appropriation for it's accom-
. plishment. We are glad to note
the confidence Mr.. Goodwin ha!
in the success of the movement
