Unto You, Young Man, We Write

Louisiana Democrat: 1t has been
asserted that every man can live
within the limit of his incomes. and
of the average young man at least
it is true. At all events the neces-
saries of life are very cheap and
very small indeed must be the wage
that will not permit a young man
to support life soberly and decently
1t is the Injuries that come high
the unnecessary cigars, the indul-
gence in liquors, the questionable
entertainments, the betting, the
card playing, trying to ape those in
better circumstances. These are
the things for which young men
generally 60 into debt, not for the
necessaries of life. For the ''husks
of swine" verify, that mortgage
themselves, souls and bodies. Fol
the sake of gratifying his vanity OF
dressing as we'll as others who have
more than double his means-by
wishing to appear what he calls as
up-to-date as his friends or boon
companions, many excuses of Esau
whose necessity was at least real
His wants are imaginary, and their
qualification only serves to create
an army of unlawful desires, which
drag him lower and lower into the
slough of debt, dependency and de-
generation, until manhood, honor
hope, enthusiasm, self-respect-al
that makes life dear-goes out in
darkness. IA contented mind is a
contented feast" but a feast that
can never be enjoyed by the victim
of debt.

CHARTER
OF The Louisiana Handle FactOrNs

Before me, Clifton F. Davis, a no
tary public, duly appointed and
qualified in and for the Paris hof
Caddo, State of Louisiana, came and
appeared John B. Atkins, S. A. Guy,
w. A. Wilkinson, w. E. Payne and
J. M. Messick, all to me well known,
who declared to me in the presence
of the attesting witnesses, that they
desire to form and constitute a cor
poration under the laws of Louis
lana, and that they do hereby form
themselves and their successors
into corporation and constitute
same in compliance with the pro-
visions of the laws of the State of
Louisiana governing corporations,
and under the provisions of the ar
ticles of incorporation hereinafter
SET forth.
ARTICLE |.

On the sources Of CROFT ensg 90
included some cash registers, turn
stiles, chairs and other things that
may aggregate about SI,500. One OF
the expenditures which exceeded
the amount budgeted is racing
$6,t12. This item recalls the outlay
for races at the fourth fair of the
association which was more than
$4,000. 1t was a crippling expense
from which the association rallied
last year. When this outlay OF
$4,000 for races was reported the
directors were staggered. 1t was
then determined that the expendi-
ture for races would be limited and
fixed. While races may. be desired
as a part of the programme, the
greatest number of people who pat
ronize the Fair have little interest
in races. esS ssEa
There was another expenditure
which was greater than the revenue
realized therefor. The near-beer
concession produced about $500,
while the amount required for po-
lice duty was about double the
amount received from this conces-
sion.
1t is predicted that no concession
for near-beer privileges will be con-
sidered hereafter by the association.
These facts are stated for the in
formation of the people.
The various reports of officials
have been referred to the executive
committee, whose report Wnen SUD-
mitted to the board of directors will
be given publicity.
Aside from the financial side of
the result, the success of the Fair
of 1913 has exceeded in its exhibits
and demonstrations all the records
of the past. This mention applies
particularly to the departments of
agriculture, horses, swine and poul-
try, which are the prime purpose
of encouragement and development
and without which the Fair would
be a dismal failure.
Whatever are the shortcomings
of the 1913 Fair will be applied to
the greater betterment of the 1914
exhibition.

TIE Cmre1y ein.

Assurance has been given 4Iom
washington that the currency bill
(which has been pending in the Onis
ted States Senate several months, is
to be forced to an issue at an eN'ly
date.
o The influence of the Presidene, it
would seem, is about to be effective.
The recent conference of Democrats
gives encouragement towards the
enactment of the bill as it came
from the House, with the revision
of some minor details.
The contention is now over the
number of regional banks. In the
House bill twelve are stipulated,
which has been decreased to ten as
suggested in the Democratic con-
ference instead of four as has been
the insistence of the national banks
of New York.
The regional banks are to be made
the depositaries of the surplus
money of the United States and are
to keep the bank reserves OF small
banks. These regional banks are to
operate as the decentralization OF
the money control by the banks OF
New York operating as monopoly.
These regional banks are to be
established at commercial centers td
facilitate business and promote en-
terprise.
Under the present system a few
men control the finances of the
United States.
In the Glass-Owen bill is provided
the gradual retirement OF national
bank notes and the issuance of fed
eral reserve notes fully protected as
will be required by law.
In brief, the currency bill is to be
distinct departure from the enact
ment now in force which it will re-
peal, and the government is to is
sue the money and not the banks.
As provided in the Glass-Owen
bill, fexibility is secured, and what
is known as money stringency or
a money panic will be impossible.
As the few in New York who con-
troll the currency of the Nation are
fully aware of the intent and pur-
pose of the administration bill if en-
acted, it is not surprising that they
are striving to secure its defeat in
the Senate, but in this they must
face the defeat inevitable.
There is no human being in the
United States who has clearer and
4 more thorough understanding OF
the financial conditions that Presi-
dent Wilson, who has determined
on the solving of problem that will
operate to the best interest of the
people.

The Sanitary Department OF the
CITY Of Shreveport.

The Caucasian has been requested
by Commissioner Rives to state that
from the annual appropriation for
the city sanitary or cleaning de-
partment for the year ending Dec.
81, 1913, the expenditures are:
For 20 to % men on the san
itary pay roll Of the city
average $40 weekly,
which with other items
propOrtioned to this de-
partment aggregate about--S13,000
To which add Assistant
Gray's salary ----------- 1900
And to which is added the
appropriation for Board
of Health -----------------5 5000
Making a total 200
Assistant J. ]. Gray is required to
report daily to the Health Board for
instructions.
The sanitary department removes
trash and dirt and cans and assists
in keeping the city clean.
As explained, the Department of
Streets and Parks is divided and op-
Grated as Improvement, sanitary,
sweeping and cleaning and the city
stables.
This publication is requested as
an explanation to the alleged mis-
leading impression suggested by DR..
Chandler, president of the Board Of
Health, in his statements of recent
date.
From the Caucasian's view the
claims of the city, in connecting the
expenditures of the sanitary section
Of this municipality with the expen-
ditures of the Board of Health, is
more partisan than fair, since the
Health Board is distinct depart
ment whose imperative functions
are centered in the safeguarding of
the public health, for which in part
at least the city must provide the
revenues.
In no sense personal it is due DR..
Chandler to say that he has fulfilled

NOW HIS HORSE BALKS NOT.

Solomon Broadup hitched Selim to
the zone -hoss" rig and turned his head
villageward. You see, Solomon had
some apples that he wished to market.
The animal went about half the dis
tance quite we'll; then bad thoughts
entered his head--he would balk. And
balk he did, so bad that all Solomon's
efforts to make him go were unavail-
ing. He did not whip the horse,
mind you. Like his ancient namesake,
Solomon was possessed of wisdom.
having imbibed during his two score
and odd years sufficient supply for
everyday purposes. He merely pushed
Selim back little out of the way of
passers-by, then, showing him strap
and putting it under his very nose,
he went to the off-side and securely
fastened one end of the strap to his
foreleg close up to his body. Then
throwing the other end across his
shoulder, he fastened it to his near
leg between the foot and pastern-joint,
taking the strap up enough to raise
the foot considerably off the ground.
Then Solomon sat down to imbibe
more wisdom from newspaper which
he happened to have in his pocket.
When he had scanned the market re-
ports and the latest news from the
war, he saw that the erstwhile re-
fractory Selim was showing some
signs of giving in, and he unhampered
him, holding him by the bride long
enough to show him the strap again.
Solomon got into the wagon and Selim
went to the village.

THE LAW DELAYED.

This story is told to emphasiz, He
fact that the authority of the law is
not always the best means of accom-
plishing results:
"a good old fashioned Pennsylvania
German farmer, in Bucks county,
went into field one day to find a
foreman and a dozen men busily
planting stakes upon his land and ar
ranging preliminary work for a rail
way grade.
"'Vot pizness you got to do dot ~
inquired the farmer. Dis is holdings
for YOU
why replied the foreman of the
gang, we've the right of way. We
have paper that gives us authority
to do this, all right. Read this
producing legal document. Now
run along, an go about your bust
ness
with that the farmer ambled to-
ward the barn. A moment later his
savage bull was tearing down the
field. There was no time to climb
tree or scasle the fence, and the fore
man and his men sought safety in
flight. As they ran the foreman saw
the farmer.
Hey he shouted, stop this bull
Here you, stop this bull'
"'Vell,' answered the farmer, wy
don't you show dot paper to der bull,
