PRISONERS ESCAPE
From the Good Roads Camp-Who Is
Responsible ?-Who Is to Be Held to
Account?

A few days since NJ. +. French es
capped from the good roads camp He
had been convicted of the violation oi
the prohibition law. It was not his hrsI
offense, and therefore he was assignee
to term of '5ix months on the public
roads and 500 fine
It will be recalled that Sehulsingef
and Bergman escaped deliberately. Over
their departure from the convict camp
there was barely a comment; nor was
there any action taken to hold to ae-
count the superintendent of the camp
and now there is recorded this escape OF
French.
What is the use of employing detee-
tives to catch such offenders, then have
them tried at great expense TO the paf=
ish, when such offenders are permitted
TO walk away deliberately and defantly
from the convict camp,
Such escapes would be impossible If
there was any discipline and the men
entrusted to care for the eonviets were
diligent and competent.
Who Is to be held to account for this
escape of French7
The Police Jury can not ignore this
escape, and since they have the fullest
authority, it becomes their duty to in
quire into the reasons why such escapes
as have been recorded are possible.
This is not question OF an issue of
friendship OF of personal consideration.
It is one in which the whole people are
concerned, and demands that the camp
shall be placed in the control of men
who shall not permit such escapes.

woman TO wear hat of any kind in a
place of public entertainment.
It will be recalled that when the Da-
dehhefer bill requiring women to re-
move their hats in theaters passed the
Louisiana Legislature II was regarded
as a Joke and provoked much merriment,
but the operation of the law proved
that It was no joke at all, but great
boon, and today Dudenhefer, who build

them.
