structs Auditor Capdevielle to
/ honor the Brrner salary warrant.
Politicians see III certain phases

The attorney general said IN
part
Mr.. Bruner IS actually con
fined in q public prison, serving
sentence Of sixty days lmprlSon-
mpnt imposed by the Judge OF the
twenty second judicial district
cuult.
The question which must be
decided ultimately is whether the
prov ision of the law referred 10
in The foregoing paragraph re
latcs TO one s eligibility at the
time he is elected or appointed 10
office. or whether II also works Il

Nr. Rruner Is still at least de

olrise the duties Of his office and
draw his salary until and unless
the courts declare him to have
forfeited it.
Mr.. Bruner. if appears. could
not be impeached before the State
Senate or before the courts as
provided for III the ease Of other
officers by articles 217. 2lS, 2l9,
221 and 222 Of the articles Of the
Constitution. which provides that,

tuition, which provides that for
any reasonable cause, whether
sufficient for Impeachment or not.
the governor shall remove any
officer on the address Of two
thirds of the members elected to
each house of the General AS
sembly.
Ny advice TO YOU, therefore,
is TO honor Mr. Bruner s salary
warrant first, because he is EN-
titled thereto until and unless his
office is iudicialIy declared For
feited and. second. because ai'ti-
Gle 2O2 of the Constitution has
never been interpreted by the
courts. and il is only fair beth to
him and to The State that the
courts should pass Judgment
thereon. Yours very truly.

DOINGs OF THE POLICE JURY

The oft agitated question OF
securing a shorter public road to
st. Martinville assumed definite
shape at Thursdays meeting Of
the Police Jury when the commit.
tee on appropriation made its re
port. fixing the price to be paid
for lands and assessing the dam.
ages TO the property to be ira
vprSed. The committee advised
the purchase Of the Wyche road
if satisfactory terms could be
reached. Mr.. Wyche who was
present. asked that final action be
deferred until next meeting and
that committee from the jury
be appointed TO negotiate with
him for the purchase Of his road.
His request was granted and
Messrs. DoBlanc. Romero and
Landry appointed to represent
the Parish in these NEGOTIATIONS.
The refusal Of the State Engi-
neor TO accept the model road
leading from New iberia TO Jean
ercttp was reported TO the Jury.
This road is up TO requirements
IN certain parts and deficient in
others. The state Engineer re
quired that the entire stretch be
placed in condition by October
1st and served notice on the con
tractor that failure TO do so
would result in its completion by
the state and Parish jointly. This
is as if should be. Contracted for
at q price of 5000 per mile. this
road was intended TO be a model
Of constructor and the officials
are TO be commended for their
determination TO see that the con
tract is fully carried out.
Little business of Importance
was transacted outside of road
matters, which as usual. claimed
the attention Of the Jury through
out the session. An act deserving
Of mention was the instructions
given to the Secretary to purchase
n befitting flag for the Court
House. Neither the City of New
iberia nor the Parish have for
wears been possessed of this EN-
blem of our country and its ac-
QUESTION by the Parish is proper
and timely.

II came to PASS in the days Of the
"Doomer". that city sprang up,
even as Il tOadstool snringth NJ in IL
single night: and the name thereof
was called Harlow. And it sat upon
hill, which ~ under the shadow Of
the hill Wherein is situated the great
fountain from whose waters the in
Inhabitants thereof drinketh. And
the inhabitants of the city We're gath
cred together from many countries,
even from the lands Uf the "Flicker-
tail", the "Badger", the 'Gopher'
and the "HoOsier, and even from the
land of the "Show me" man. And
it also came to pass that the people
were p,lifed with an exceeding great
ambition, yea. greater than seizeth
and putfeth the peoples of the lands
from whence the inhabitants of the
city came: and they gathered to-
gether in council, and they said one
to the other: eve have grown
abnndantly, yea, we have waNed eN-
ceeding strong and mighty; We are
able even to stand upon our own
legs AS it were:therefore. we will sep
crate and divide ourselves asunder
from the people and the country with
which we have been wont to mingle
in the days Of our infancy: we will
even set M Il capitol of "nr own and
sSnn II ~, ,,,r uu.,, lnnEs'
They took counsel whereby they
might accomplish this; and the wise
ones OF the city went forth into the
surrounding country. even among
the people thereof. And il came to
pass that by much pulling, and great
stress, and persistent blowing of
"hot air" by the wise ones many of
the inhabitants ot the city and OF the
country which surrounded the city,
signed their names to great petition
praying that they be allowed to sep.
crate and take themselves apart from
the country and the people with
whom they were wont to mingle, and
that they set up Il country apart.
1t came to pass that much wrath was
aroused among the people and they
said: Eve would not have signed
the petition but for these misrepre-
sensations and this ''putling'' and
"hot air.. therefore are We now
sorry that we signed the great petit
tiOn.''
And the wise ones thereupon took
counsel of themselves and said one to
the other: 1t seemeth to us, even
NV, that the people whom we
thought we had fooled are getting
wise even unto wisdom. and that
when the votes shall be counted we
shall find ourselves 'scoopad, and
our dish as it were bottom side up:
therefore will we HE us away to the
