The Signal has in it's possession a
copy of a circular headed you are
invited to join this club" The cir
cular is intended to catch the Mail
Order Sucker,a nd We regret to say
that the man who is distributing it is
doing a fine business. Here is the
scheme:
You pay a dollar and a half and be-
come a member of the club. This en-
titles you to send away for your
goods. With your first order in ex-
cess of IS your sucker money-that
is the dollar and a half-is returned
to you. The circular quotes prices
at which you are entitled to buy. Here
are some of them:

gar for $1.75.

Dear Sucker, you can't get Royal

that owns the formula will pay you
more than that to put up their output

This is a skin game, pure and sim

it would be difficult to reach the au-

DEMAND OF ADMINISTRATION.

dicial District of Louisiana, Par
ish of Lafayette.
No. 1852.

Whereas j.. S. Raggio, residing in
the parish Of Lafayette has made ap-
~plication to be appointed administra-
tor Of the aforesaid estate.
Now, therefore, all persons are here
by warned and notified to file their op-
position to the application in writing
with the Clerk Of Court at his office in
the town of Lafayette, ten days after
the first notice hereof, other wise the
said applicant will be named and ap-
pointed as such administrator as re-
quired by law and in accordance with
law.

leans States says:

icduS OIdtto says.
THE question has often been asked,
why should every other officer of the
parish be given a decent fixed compen-
sation for a term of years and the
poorer parish printer be compelled to
struggle for his position and compen-
sation Upon a competitive contract ba-
sis? The question is worth thought
full consideration by every serious
minded newspaper man Why o &C.
| cord the position of sheriff to the low
est bidder if this principle with regard
to the parish printer be the correct one?
Why not make the doctors bid for the
position of coroner and the lawyers
bid for the positions of district attor-
ney and judge, and the bookkeepers
bid for treasurer and clerk of court,
and so on down the line.
"Of course, if the parish official prin-
ter was a position of great profit and
the parish advertising cost large sums
of money the contract system would
be necessary; but in no parish in
Louisiana is the advertising very large
Hence, would it not be more satisfac-
change the law, by establishing a
imum and minimum compensation for
the parish printer and making him
elective just as is the case with the
other parish officers? Suppose the
law should fix $500 as the minimum
and $4,000 as the maximum salary for
the parish printer, make only bonafide
newspaper men eligible for the Office
and then require them to be elected
along with tn other parish officers;
what reasonable objection could any
body urge against it,"
We agree with The States that the
parish printer should not be discrimi-
mated against, and forced to bid for
his office while every other officer of
the parish is given a fixed salary. At
the same time we do not think it best
for the newspapers of the parish to
have to depend OF the chance of their
faction winning out in an election to
secure the parish printing as has been
the case in the past. We think it
would be much better for the newspa-
pers and the public were the Legisla-
ture to set a price for printing official
proceedings, notices, ETC., and then d.
vide the amount of printing equally
among all the papers published in the
parish, that agree and do publish the
official proceedings and notices. There
would be no objection to naming one
as the official journal.
The object of publishing the proceed
ings is, of course, to give them public
ity and the more papers publish them,
the more publicity they get, which is
all the better for the public. By dividing
the amount Of printing, it would cost
