The Reason Why Judge X. G. Drew
Should be Reelected to the Circuit
Court of Appeals,

First:-He is only serving a
short unexpired term, having
been appointed to this position
in February, 1911.
Second During the time he
has been on Court of Appeals
every decision of his reviewed
by the Supreme Court has been
affirmed, which goes to show
that he has made good, and fur
ther evidence of the fact that
he has made good as a member
of this important Court is that
he was re-appinted by Gov. Hall
without any solicitation what
ever from Judge Drew.
Third:-Any officer having
made good for short unexpired
term is at least entitled to one
full term. - Signal Democrat.

follows:

1t will be observed that the
first $40, 900 is to be borrowed
during the last four months of
1912, and will draw interest for
an average period of fourteen
months(to January 1914. The
second $50, 600 will be borrowed
in the four spring months of 1913,
and will draw interest for about
twenty months. This arrange
ment secures the money at the
time it is expected to be needed
to pay for work done, and in such
a way as to cost the least inter-
est on the loan. 1t is strictly
business like, and the police jury
is to be congratulated on their
care and judgment in the matter

The Rule of the American Road

The Rule OF the American hOaQ.
Every man, woman and child
should know that the rule of all
travel in America is that every
body should turn to the right
hand. This is true whether it
be upon the highways of the coun-
try, or upon the streets and side
walks of the cities and towns.
Nothing is more ridiculous and
annoying than for two drivers to
meet in the middle of the road
and hesitate and then probably
bring their teams to dead halt
before they discover which side
of the road either of them wants
to take. The. same thing fire.
quently occurs when a country
man goes to the city, and on
meeting foot passengers he be-
gins to bobble about in the mid
die of the sidewalk, until the man
he meets stops stock still and lets
him take either side he chooses,
and then smilingly bows himself
away, evidently amused at the
country stranger that don't know
that every man should go to the
right.
In these days of automobiles
and general progress it is wei
for all to remember the rule Of
going to the right, and let the
person you meet have the bal
ance of the road to your left
This rule will prevent confusion
and avoid many unnecessary &C
cidents.

Died at His Post.

Mr.. ]. B. Waldron, engineer for
many years at the Lee Lumber Com
pany's mill at Tioga, died suddenly on
Friday, Aug. End, 1912, at p. m. He
leaves widow and six children. The
funeral took place on Saturday after
noon in the cemetery at Tioga- The
services were conducted at-the church
by Rev. Pine, and the Masonic funeral
service was conducted by the Rev. DIR.
H. C. Duncan, of Alexandria.
The deceased was member of Cur
tbs T. Hines Lodge No. 317, of Tioga,
and had been q valued employee OF
the Lee Lumber Company for many
years. He went west for the benefit
of his health, but returned and re-
quested that he be given his old po-
sition as engineer again, which was
done. He died at his post of duty.
He felt that the end was coming, and
left his throttle and went over to q
side room in the mill and expired in
fifteen minutes. Town Talk Aug. s.

The Ability Of Grant Parish to Borrow
$40, 900.

The police jury of Grant parish
at its special session last week
authorized its president to borrow
$40, 600 to build the model roads
lately contracted to be built from
Colfax to Montgomery and Verda.
The special taxes of 1910, 1911
and 1912 being already expended
and hypothecated for the roads
built to Rochelle and Pollock, ex-
cept a small balance, this loan is
based on the prospective 5 mill
taxes for the years 1913 and 1914.
They have arranged for the
money to be borrowed at the
times and in amounts payable as
follows:
The Colfax chronicle. [volume] (Colfax, Grant Parish, La.) 1877-1981, 1912-08-10

Only one of the seven members
of the police jury opposed the
proposition, (Mr. Pruett), his con-
tention being that it would be i'm
possible to pay the $4,000 with
the taxes of 1918 and 1914. He
bases his contention on the fact
that the special tax of 1910 only
yielded $19, 656.08, while 1911
yielded $40, 673.31, making a to-
tai of 500, 329. 80; and says if the
hext two years special tax does
not do better than that we would
not have enough to pay back the
$40, 900 with accrued interest.
This contention is without mer-
it, for the reason that the natur-
al increase of values in Grant
parish, which have advanced
steadily for thirty years at the
rate of from five to ten per cent
annually, justifies the expectation
that the 5 mill tax will meet the
loan, if not pay both loan and in
terest. Besides this, there will
remain a balance unexpended
from the taxes of 1910, 1911 and
1912 that can be used to pay any
shortage that may occur.
The action of our police jury in
making this loan is doubly patri-
otto, practical and common sense,
when we take into consideration
the fact that by securing this
$40. 600 they have also secured
SIS, 600 in cash from the State OF
Louisiana, which they would have
lost had they not taken up the
present contract and let out the
building of the proposed roadway
This gives them $55, 600 in cash
Immediately available to builC
roads. 1t will give the people Of
wards six and seven the use ant
benefit of about 81 miles of gooG
roads, and give it to them more
than two years sooner than the.
could possibly have hoped hat
they waited until after the specia
tax was collected. And, so fal
as the parish being able to NEE
this obligation. there is no ques
ton about the matter. Gran
parish has a regular annual reve
nue. of fully forty thousand dol
lars under it's present assessment
and with the care and econord
management shown by our polio
Jury, even if a shortage shout,
occur, they can easily arrange t
meet a considerable balance if j
should be necessary.

The Amount of Special Road Tax.
We have been asked as to the
amount of money to be realized
in Grant parish from the special
5-year 5-mill tax voted for good
roads. The amounts turned over
to the parish by Sheriff Perkins,
after deducting his commissions,
are as follows:
For 1910 taxes. ................- $l9, 656 W
For 1911 taxes. .................. 1858 81
Total for two years. $39, 329 ~
The tax will run for three more
years, and it is expected to yield
about the same amount each
year, with probably a slight in
crease in the amounts for 1912,
1913 and 1914. The parish will
very likely receive 500, 600 clear
after paying the sheriff his COM
mission. The total taxes collect
ed for 1910 and 1911 amounts to
something over $4,000 each
year.

Chattel Mortgage is Law-'Nuf Said.

Chattel Mortgage is LAWFUL Said.
We give place this week to
three communications in de-
fense' of the lately promulgated
chattel mortgage law. One is
from Representative 7. 0. Hart,
defending his action in helping
to pass the law. Two others are
from parties who believe the law
is alright, and their defense"
of Mr.. Hart is really better than
the one he makes for himself.
However, the whole controversy
is out of order, and can amount
to nothing. We have the law,
and, after the people have given
it trial for two or three years,
we will engage to give our debat-
| ing friends an opinion based on
experience that we think will be
worth more than all the conjec.
lures and guesses that they are
now making in advance. 'Nu1
said, friends; give us a rest or
this subject, and let us hear from
you on some more live matters
needing discussion. This is
dead issue until the people shall
pass upon it. A good portion o.
the people wanted the law, ant
have got the right to give it /;
trial.
