yard in unpaved streets, shall be used.
The work of laying track and erecting
poles to be done >under the direction of
the city engineer.
Having an eye to the future and with
the view of securing the best for the
public service, the Franchise Commit
tee recommend all rails to be grooyed
rails of not less than SO pounds to the
yard, and would require the Traction
Company to keep in good repair the
space occupied by the track and two
feet outside of the rails.
Would a majority of the Council de-
cline to accept these recommendations
of the Franchise Committee and ap-
prove the proposal of the Traction Com
pany?
And why?
If they should, then they could no
longer pretend to be the representatives
of the people.
Seventh: The city will cause the legal
and authorized grade to be established
where no grade is now established on
each and every street, and will have
same recorded for guidance and future
reference, and the Traction Company
shall conform. to such grade.
Is it to be understood that the city is
to become obligated to cause the streets
over which this line is to be constructed
to be grade as was done on Laurel and
other streets over which the West End
line is operated?
We do not think the people are in the
mood of approving such proceedings.
Unquestionably the city is expected to
give the grades, but there must end all
responsibility on the part of the city.
The eighth proviso refers to the re-
pairing of streets and tracks which is
not sufficiently clear. From the expe-
rience of the past, nothing should be
taken for granted. In dealing with this
corporation every 'i' must be dotted
and every It" crossed distinctly.
In the ninth section is the stipulation
of construction to begin within sixty
days after the PRONUNCIATION of the or
dinance and its acceptance by the com
pany. The work is TO be completed in
nine months.
Such in brief is the proposal of the
Traction Company and the attitude of
the Franchise Committee.
1t is true that the citizens interested
in the construction of this line have
subscribed the money required by the
Traction Company and it is equally true
that such line would be of the great
est convenience to the people inhabiting
this section of the city, but the principle
involved is centered in the grant of

incoherencies that come with drunken
speech, what cares the saloon? 1t has
been paid for the drink that has stupe-
fed the senses and doped the nerves.
Is the saloon a respectable business
Can the direct representative of the de-
vii be engaged in business that is res
pectable? Is busines that works for
the degeneracy of mankind respectable?
. The saloon should go. 1t should go
quickly. 1t should be banished from
every enlightened community 1t is in
partnership with the brothel 1t is the
stamping ground of crime and crimi-
nails. How long shall this fostering sore
upon human civilization be allowed to
pour forth its foul poison? Get to-

cry human creature who is struggling

transfers which has been and is being
denied by the Traction Company with

The gist of the contention is centered
in the recommendations Of the Fran
chise Committee, who are striving to
protect the interests of the people,
whereas the ordinance of the Traction
Company is dictated in that spirit of
give us what we want or you get no
railroad
Is it not true that the Council, as rep
resentatives of the people, should be
self-assertive?
Why should Shreveport continue to
give its substance to the Traction Com
pany without requiring some equivalent
i'll return?
In Dallas, Texas, recently company

receipts to the municipality, free rides

able condition, such as the city has the
right to demand, besides the charter is
limited to twenty years.
Again we repeat, why should Shreve-
port give its substance to the Traction
Company without receiving some equiv
alent in return?
Has not the Traction Company OBJ
tanned enough privileges and for song
without expecting more?
In the years past the councilrnen in
number suficinet were ready and willing
to give and did yield comp1acently to
every demand of the Traction Company
without an equivalent.
This giving away to the Traction
Company was secured through pleas of
friendship, and the same pretense is be-
ing exerted today, but conditions have
changed and personal friendship can no
longer be the medium of giving away
privileges which have a fixed value in
dollars and cents.
In consideration of what the Traction
Company has obtained from the city
what has it done for the people?
What does the Traction Company
propose to do for the people besides the
collecting of fares?
The issue is clear Will the Council
approve the report of the Franchise
Committee, or will it go on record as
yielding to the Traction Company with
out equivalent returns?

wise in need of attention. Children
are now and then dismissed from
school for obstinacy, or berated for
excessive stupidity, when the whole
trouble is that they cannot see or do
not hear clearly. Out OF $50 chill
dren recently examined in a certain
community, 100 were found to have
defects of breathing. The open
mouth is sure sign of breathing de-
fects. Children breathe through the
mouth, not because they like to, not
because they have fallen into bad
habits, not because their fathers or
mothers did, but because they must.
1t is their only means of taking air
into the lungs. The nose is stopped
up. This inability to breathe through
the nose it due to enlarged tonsils

The milky badrc of the skies,

With sreakings of the morning light;
Then from his mansion in the sun

And gave into his mighty hand
The symbol of her chosen land.

The sign of hope and triumph high,

To where the skyborn gores burn;
And, his springing steps advance.

And when the cannon mouthngs loud
Heave in wild wreaths the battle shroud
And CORY sabres rise and fall
Like shoots of flame midnight's pail,
Then shall thy meteor chances glow,
And covering foes shall sink beneath
Each gallant that strikes below
That lovely messenger of death

When death, careerihg on the gale,
Sweeps darkly round the bellied SAIL

deafness, infiamed eyes. In a school
child the teacher recognizes as
mouth breather or adenoid victim,
child inattentive or backward in his
studies, maybe slightly deaf, with
sunken chest. The mother of the
adenoid-afflicted child observes
tendency to Group, frequent colds,
restless sleep, tendency to snore, ear
ache, anemia and weak eyes.
Occasionally adenoids and enlarg-
ed tonsils have a tendency to remain
into adult life, though in most in
stances they tend to disappear. Even
when the growths do subside, the ef-
fects of their former existence will
as a rule continue. The lining of the
nose and throat remains inhamed,
the person is still subject TO colds
and sore throat, the deafness may
grow worse, the lungs are delicate
and the nervous system is more or
less affected. 1t means permanent
nent deformity TO the chest and
lungs.
One may question how these
growths in the nose work all this
mischief. II so happens that at
the time of the development OF
the second set of teeth. time
when adenoids show definitely their
presence, that number of import
ant physical changes are taking place
in the body OF the child. The bones
Of the jaw, nose. throat and chest
are undergoing important changes.
If adenoids are present large enough
TO cause mouth breathing. they cause
wasting Of the developing process
which leads to lack OF development
and disfiguration of face and body.
The only treatment of value is the
removal OF the adenoids by a physi-
clan. The operation Is a simple and
safe one.

Unfortunately the great majority
OF parents rarely think of their child
ren's teeth until too late TO preserve
them intact. or 500 children exam
