Did You Ever Hear of Barley-wine?
If Not, Let Us Tell You q Few Facts About 1t

In 1850 Anhdeaon Rdeaon IF Oxford wrote in Greek lengthy dissertation on the
origin and antiquity Of malt beverages in which it appears that according to m authors,
twenty centuries before the Christian era Osiris invented BEEF. According to others it has
been stated that beer has at all times been a drink Of the ancient Hebrews. PMy, Iheo-
phaaus and TachS, however, speak Of beer as having been known from YER early times to
the people Of the North. Haodots speaks Of the Egyptian beer as Barey-wine.
Bee, as W understand it, modified by the hop, was probably little known in England
before 800 A. D.
But, to hahn back tt the ancient Egyptian, a beer called by DudonS "Zythum'
was in popular ue and "wssc scarcely inferior to the juice of the grape 1t was made from
barley, and, hops being unknown, wasA favored with hpms and other vegetable substances
1t was also called "F1ega," and has been traced as far back the fourth dynasty. Thus,

A few of the voters in this section
of the parish are considering" the
matter of voting for parish divi-
sion in hope that when the parish is
divided the new parish will been abled
to secure herd law, requiring every
owner of stock to keep them under
fence. While this law is without
doubt d great benefit to many sections
of this country, still it is an innova-
tion that the native population here
will be slow to accept, and it is safe to
assert that should the question of q
stock law arise, practically every Gre
ole vote cast would he against it, The
Creole view Of the matter is pretty
accurately expressed hv Sidney Lang
lev, one of the big stock men of Ward
Two. He said "AS lar as | am con-
cerned stock law would not hurt me
any, as keep all my stock in fenced
pastures any way, but | have a
lot of friends who have from forty
10 eighty or hundred acres Of land
and make their living in part, at least
by keeping bunch of cattle, which
run on ranges. A herd law would
put this class of men out of business
as they have not sufficient land tt
keep their cattle on. For this rea
son Mr.. Langley says he is thorough
ly opposed to a herd law. This i;
not the reasoning of one man only
but is practically the view taken of il
by at least ninety per cent of the entire
Creole population. If you are con
WINGED that parish division is for thu
best interests of the country, vote fol
it, but don't be deluded into voting
for it in the hope that You will be en-
abled to obtain a herd law, for al
long as the native population retair
tneir relative voting strength, The
herd law is out OF the question.

The nlan Of campaign oftOur friends,
who are now indulging "plpe dreams -
abont carving Calcasieu parish lhto
fonr parts. is in some particulars, al
mirable. but in others we regret to say
It is unworthy of the men VINO are
taking part in it. :,
We refer especially to the we'll
known rule OF promising the same 1a'
othce to dozens of men in the same
parisb of which such extensive use
is now being made. For example, II
the real truth could be known, we are
sure that not less than five men nave
been promised the office OF sheriff. anu
not less than FIVE, the Office OF clerk OF
the proposed new parishes. The same
thing applies to al. the other Offices TO
be filed, including members OF the
school boards and police juries. What
an astounded lot of "innocents' there
would be if the veil could be lifted Tor
moment, and the sun allowed TO
shine in upon this putrid mass OF po'
litical deception. And how the hum
gry office seeker has swallowed the
halt, The wonder is that men, VINO,
under ordinary circumstances, pass
for sensible and intelligent beings,
can be so easily hoodwinked. Yet
men of this class have actually been
lead to believe that all the Offices in
the new parishes are in the keeping OF
a few anointed ones, to be distributed
as gracious gifts to the select few.
OF course, these wise ones are play
ing a safe game, because they realize
that the diyision movement is doomed
to overwhelming defeat and that they
will never be called upon to make
good their multitudlnous promises.
1t is we'll, however, for some men &c
realize. once for all, that if, IN the
distant future Imperial Calcaslen'
should be dismembered, the political
"pie" of the new parishes, will be
distributed by the people att ballo
box, and not by a lot of self-appoint
ed distributors of public pap. lndeec
it becomes increasingly certain tina
the masses of the people will teach
this coterie we'll deserved lesson a
the very first opportunity-the lessor
that their votes cannot be sold ant
their political freedom barteret
by the disgruntled elements in one o
the best and most economically ad
ministered parishes of Louisiana, TO
the sole purpose of increasing tn
; price of few town lots and to Great
new and unnecessary offices at the eS
pense of the public.
No righteous cause has ever bee
led to victory adross the quicksand
of deceit.

PROBE BOOZE EXCURSIONS

Osceola, April 2S.-An echo of a queer practice alleged to have been indulged in by a booze excursion boat will be sounded here next month when the grand jury convenes.
 Two steamboats are alleged to have enpaped in this novel and supposedly lucrative business which had for it's object the quenching of prohibition induced thirsts in Mississippi county,
 It is alleged that the owners of the steamboats, Harry Lee and H. W. Butorf, made a practice of landing at Osceola for the purpose of taking aboard booze customers. At any rate the boats would land here and the whistles would blow. From all direc- tions would come more or less prom nent citizens of Mississippi county, some slipping into coats as they hur- ried down the street. If the first alarm failed to get sufficient crowd, the whistles would toot some more and the second series of blasts always succeeded in filling up the boat which would then steer out into the river.
 About as long thereafter as it would require thirsty man to have his suf- ferings relieved several times, the boats would return to the landing and all that needed assistance to effect a landing would be aided by the crew The rides were free. Refreshments were paid for.

EXPECTS FULL
 ATTENDANCE LAND CONGRESS BOARD MEETS AT LITTLE ROCK MAY 10 DEMAND FOR EXHIBIT
 SPACE.

Little Rock, April 28.-Secretary E. R. Ratterree of the executive commit tee of the Arkansas Land Congress, has received letters from 63 of the county vice presidents of the congress, notifying him they will be present at the big convention to be held here May 10. With the board of control and executive committee, Judge Rat terree expects 100 to be in attendance at the May meeting. At this meeting the vice presidents will be instructed in the way they should proceed to work in their counties.
 Judge Ratterree is in an unenviable position with reference to the parcel ing of the spaces in the Arkansas di- vision at the United States Land and Irrigation Congress. Through person al efforts Judge Ratterree secured ar entire division at the Chicago show for Arkansas. This is twice as much as allotted to any other state. Within four days after the division was secur- ed eight towns of the state applied fol
 eight of the spaces, leaving but one for the dozen or more towns which have since applied. Now it is up tc some one to divide the remaining space, cut dGwn the space of the other towns so as to give more divisions, or to secure more room from the eX- position company, which is almost as an impossibility.

TO CURB THEATRE TRUST
WHITE SLAVE TRAFFIC ALSO SUBJECT OF PROPOSED

Little Rock, April 28.-Two bills will be introduced in the next senate which, if passed, will give Arkansas two muchly needed general laws. One of them will govern the white slave traffic and the other the manner of booking theatrical attractions so as to unt crimp in the big theatrical trust Charles Jacboson, one of the Demo cratic nominees for the state senate states that he will introduce the bill to put an end to the white slave trade should anything of the kind exist, in Ali ansas inc pill he contemplates preparing, would make the punish ment felony with minimum of five years in the penitentiary. At the re cent meeting of the Independent Or der of Bnai Brith for District No. ', which includes the southern states held at Mobile, a resolution was adopt ed appropriating $5000 for the pur- pose of suppressing the white slave trade, and directing the delegates through their state representatives, to do all possible to secure the passage of laws which would put an end to it. The matter has already been taken up with the legislature of Louisiana and bill introduced there. A copy of the bill has been sent for by MT. Ja- cobson, and if it is not just what he wants, he will prepare one of his own for presentation to the Arkansas sen- ate.
 The other bill will be introduced Dy an out-of-town senator. It will require every theatrical manager in Arkansas to accept any reputable booking offered him for any night he has vacant. This will give the inde- pendent companies an equal break
