of the most prominent of the busl-
ness men, and reports having had
most enjoyable trip. He was
particularly pleased at the man
ner in which his candidacy is be-

parish, many Of the citizens OF

of their support. There are any
number Of voters of this parish

the distinguished service he has
rendered the state during his
long tenure on the Supreme

that he should be returned to

Not many people are aware that
the United States Government
conducts a candy kitchen on the
highest floor of the Chemistry
building, in the Departments Of
Agriculture, where all day long
a professional candymaker tries
experiment to learn how cheaply
he can make good candy out Of
sugar. The Bureau of Chemis-
try is endeavoring to find out,
and has about reached the con-
clusion, that in many Of the bon
hons sold in stores no sugar at all
is used-just glucose and saccha-
rim, both of which contain poison
in minute quantities. The gov
eminent 8 candymaker began with
stick candy, because it is assert
ed that more than one-half the
candy sold in the United States is
in that form. The sticks cost
about s cents a pound, almost
twice as. much as it costs to make
commercial candy. There will be

most economical methods of pre-

WHAT THE MAJORITY DE-
CLARED,

In the last gubernatOrial cam
paign one candidate for governor
was the man who, above all 9th
ers, had led in the educational
renaissance-James b. Aswell.
Another candidate for governor
was u man who, whatever his
faults and weaknesses, endorsed
the educational policies Of the
Blanchard and Sanders admins
ira ions-the frame and plan and
system of the department of edu-
cation and it's relations with the
public schools and institutions of
higher education in Louisiana
John T. Michel.
The third candidate was the
only man from the lips of whose
supporters, fell a continuing
stream of attack upon the school
system as it had developed
through seven years Of continuity
of policy and polity--Luther Il.
Hall. utxE
On this point the issue was
clear-cut. There were two men
on one side favoring the plan Of
action and one line Of policy in
sefar as schools were concerned,
though bitterly antagonistic on
other matters.
On the other side was one man
upholding the attack upon the
school system.
BY a majority of 10000 the
people Of Louisiana voted against
the third mans views.
The present State Board of Ed
ucation, in abandoning the course
Of action of eight years, in seek
ing to discredit the successor of

lice Juror representing the wards,
but by q committee Of four from
each Ward directly interested IN
the improvement.
After a thorough discussion OF
the subject, the following resolu-
ton was introduced and car
ried:
"Be it Resolved, by the Police
Jury of Iberia Parish that in the
event that the taxpayers OF the
Parish authorize the issuance OF
$4,000 twenty year bonds at
the election to be held on Sept.
10th, 1912, the avail of said bonds
be distributed among the wards OF
the Parish in proportion to their
respective assessment subject to
Parish taxation.
Be it further Resolved that IN
the expenditure of the money al
lo.ted to each Ward, the Presi-
dent, with the advise Of the men,
bers of the Police Jury from the
Ward be authorized and directed
to appoint a committee OF four
taxpayers Of the Ward, who to-
gether with the member or men,
'bers of the Police Jury Of the
Wards will advise the Police Jury
in the road work and drainage
to be done therein. "
Thus it will be seen that an
opportunity now presents itself
which will give within a few
years, roads that will be a credit
to the Parish, with system OF
drainage that will make them
easy to maintain and our people
should bend every effort to give
the Police Jury their support by
carrying the election. The Parish
of Lafayette is preparing to Is
sue bonds for good roads to the
amount Of a half million dollars
by direct tax upon its citizens
and from reports published the
tax will carry. Certainly Iberia
should not under the conditions
upon which the money is to be
raised, let anything be done to
hinder the progress of this import
ant work. >. 64ES

Mr. H. B. Rutledge, representing
the Central Minnesota Light and
Power Co., Of Glencoe, Mimi, was in
the city today trying to see what
chance there was in leasing or pur-
chasing the municipal water and
light plant. He had been told by
travelling men he met that Willmar
might be looking for chance to
dispose of its municipal plant, but
soon made up his mind after arriv-
ing here that he had been misin-
formed. The company is extending
its light and power service along the
Great Northern, having turned on
the current at Dassel for the first
time last Saturday evening. They
will operate plants at Cokato, How
ard Lake and Delano and are fgur-
ing now on putting in service at
Hutchinson. By having one large
central plant and leading the current
around to different towns they can
effect a large saving over establish
ing a plant in each town. Mr.. Rut-
ledge stated that it has become a
common thing in Illinois and other
points where they have electric rail-
roads that these also furnish light

MARROW ESCAPE FROM DEATH
TaIIman's Packard Turns Turtle and
Garage Employees Have Close
Call From Serious Injury.

Henry Osmundson and Owen Ward
of the Osmundson garage han an al
most miraculous escape from injury
last Thursday. While out riding with
D. N. Tallman's Packard car and
running at a high speed beyond the
railroad crossing towards the State
Farm, they were obliged to turn out
of the road for a binder. In at
tempting to pass around, the speed
of the car was so great that the bal
aa1ce was lost and it turned turtle,
striking telephone pole, which was
broken off in two places. Mr.. Ward
escaped without injury, but Mr.. Os-
mundson sustained some bruises and
a broken shoulder blade. He was
taken to the hospital, but is able to
be around at this time. The car was
damaged to some extent, but it was
taken to the depot by it's own power
and loaded in car to be shipped to
the factory for repairs.
