THE LONG BEACH ROAD
PLAN is ABANDONED

South Bend, Ore.-At a recent meet
ing of the board OF county commits
sioners an appropriation Of $4,000
was voted the people of North Beach
for the construction of boulevard
along the ocean beach at Long Beach.
Today, however, this action was re-
voked, as the board found that the
county was bordering on the limit of
legal Indebtedness, counting contracts
now outstanding, and which will foot
UP to $35O,000. Another bond issue
will likely follow in order to raise
funds to push forward needed i'm
provements in the way of new roads.

from 0pelonsas, and eight hours to
90 that distance is unusual indeed
for Capt. Haas.
Capt. Haas says that he has been

for fifty years, and has never seen So
much water from Debaillon's Bridge.

in ali that time. He has seen the
water higher, but not for such an un-
interrupted distance.
Many small bridges are gone, and
at times the Captains buggy and
horses almost disappeared. But the
old veteran held on, cheering up the
horses and the iittle negro he had in
the buggy with him.

SltD $685. Receipts Of Local PostOEfiee During

To SeCuFg System Of Free Delivery..Bhat Is
Now Necessary to Secure

Opelousas can have free mail de-
livery, il she wants to.
She is entitled to it in amount eff

ending July 1st, by the local post
Office.
In fact she has s502.1 TO spare
over and above the required amount,
which is $4,000 and she has S10,-
505.71.
Postmaster Lassalle made this an
nouncement last Monday, after d
compilation of the receipts of the Of
fee, and steps will be Immediately
taken looking to the establishment of
a free delivery system in Opelousas.
It is now necessary to number the
houses. This cost very little, and if
the city is not in financial shape to
do it, there should be a concert Of
action among the people Of the city
to number their houses themselves.
In fact We believe that this would be
the proper way. 1t will cost, we are
told. about 25 cents a house an in
significant sum indeed.
Then only the sections Of the city
that have good sidewalks will be
favored with free delivery. The
Government will not stand their em-
ployes trudging through mud and
water.
These requirements are imperative
to the securing Of free postal de-
livery.
The Board Of Aldermen and the
Progressive League and the Young
Mems Alliance should at once take
steps in the direction ef having The
houses throughout the city numbered,
and then petitioning the Government
for free delivery. The sidewalks Of
the city are in good condition, and
all the streets are named.
The institution Of free mail delivery
means that Opelousas will rank With
other cities Of the country it will be-
q show Of thrift and prosperity.
Postage for drop letters, that is,
letters mailed at 0pelonsas for Opel
ousas, will increase from one to two
cents, but Assistant Postmaster San

to a great deal. It should hurt es-
tablishments sending bills through
The mail more than any other class,
but Mr. Sandoz says few people send

st. Landry Clarion, Opelousas,
La.
You have struck the keynote
in your proposed Trade-Edition
lit is just what 0pelousas, st.
Landry parish. and this entire
section, needs; and I wish you
unbounded success in your en-
terprise. which is most com
mendable, and which deserves
the cooperation and support of
every one whose heart is with
his country.
I may say that ] have not the
least doubt Of it's success. The
prospectus shown me by one Of
your representatives, and the
well-known reputation of the
Clarion for carrying out things
it undertakes, leaves no room,
in my mind, to doubt that the
trade edition will be one of the
most fruitful and beneficial en-
terprises ever attempted in this
country; and, in behalf of my
self and the Progressive Lea
que of 0pelousas, I most heart
lily endorse and recommend it,
and congratulate you cordially.
The Clarion has done much
for this country-very much
indeedand that of its own
volition and at its own expense,
never asking its citizens TO con-
tribute a cent to its campaign
for the betterment of the COM
mercial and industrial interests
of this State, parish, and city,
and this last move shows that
il proposes to increase its use
fulness.
With assurances that I, and
the Progrdssive League, wish
you signal success,

Twas With the understanding that we
would have enough territory allotted
to us to make it possible for the
new parish to support itself. It
cant do It under The compromise;
ii can't support Itself, that is all
there Isl to it. Taxes will increase
enormously, we believe, and this wa
can not stand The people Of the
Mamous win vote against division IL
the question is ever submitted again,
and we believe that ii will. Most of
them who went into the compromise
from the new parish, did SO because
they knew they had no standing Ia
court.
Mr. Fusilier said that the people
of the two Mamous Lower and Up
per were now at work raising funds
to make the fight, and he said that
they had received sufficient encour-
agement to warrant him IN saying
that the suit viii be brought some
tins next week, probably Tuesday.
A conference on the subject was
held in Upper Mamou last week, and
a mass-meeting in Mamou some
days ago, at which # was agreed to
make the fight.
Why, If an election were held in
Upper Mamou to-day, there would
not be ten votes cast for division,
Notwithstanding the fact that the
poll went practically solid for digi-
sion at the last election, said Mr..
Fusilier.
It had been rumored for some time,
that the Mamou people would con-
test the act creating Evangsline in
the courts, but many strenuously de-
MED the rumor. It seemed that they
we're Saving wood, waiting TO SOC

asserts that both questions have been

OF course On what points the fight
