CAMP AIGN BETTING
IS QUICKLY CALLED
Dubuisson's Friends Are Con-
fIdent that He
VIII Win.

The Convention fight is not
free from the usual foolish effort
of the losing side to make bets
in an effort to create campaign
material.
A report has been widely cir
culated-that a bet has been made
that Mr.. Dubuisson would run
third in the race. As q matter
of fact, no such public bet was
made, but a party of Opelousas
did offer in a crowd 20 bet 800
that Mr.. Dubuisson would run
third. The bet was Immediately
taken up by q bystander, a prom
inent business man with no fac
tional interest ia the campaign.
who said he could not let such q
chance to make up for the bad
crops pass by. The better i'm
mediately ''crawIed' and de-
clined to put up his end Of the
500. He eventually promised
to bet $40, evidently willing to
lose that much in an effort to
make campaign talk. But he
absolutely refused to put up the
500 he first bet.
Friends of MIR. Dubuisson are
confident he will win by a big
majority over both opponents,
but do not consider this a mat
ter to vote over.

POLICE JURORS VOTE
IN NAVLR OF ROAD
Progressive Body OF Parish Law-Makers Appro-
Pirate SlOo, 900 For Permanet
Highways.

The police jury of st. Landry
sounded the first note for the
good road campaign which is
bound to ensue, sooner or later,
when a motion by the progress
siVe juror from Eunice, Mr..
Gournay, was passed, appro-
priating one hundred and forty
seven thousand dollars for perm
anent roads in this parish.
The adoption of this resolution
will be received by the progress
siye element Of St. Landry par
ish as one of the best things
which the police jury has accom-
plished this year. 1t is true that
some will object to this plan, but
no matter where one may go.
whether it be to the most pro-
gressive community in the whole
world, or not. he will always
find a dissenting voice.
There are some people in this
parish who would object to any
thing which may lead them to
believe that others might enjoy
life better from pu b lie.
i m pr O v m {. mt. But the
vast mai GRITTY OF the
citizens Of St. Landry will ap-
prove the stand of the police
Jurors in voting in favor of per-
manent roads for this parish.
st. Landry is in dire need of
better roads and it is high time
that some permanent highways
be built; this parish is struggling
back of the other more progress
siye parishes Of Louisiana, des-
pite the fact that there are some
of the citizens, who have tried
all their lives to better the con-
ditions of affairs in old st. Lam
dry. But as it is always the
case one never can suggest any
t hing, which m g h t be

this solution, can not be evolved
in the Convention through mere
balloting, hand-shaking, or sill
tongued oratory. 1t can only
arise out of the mature delibera-
tions and steady work of experts
skilled in business and finance,
quick to grasp the facts and
figures of the business world,
trained in the school of expert
ence, familiar with every aspect
of the financial problem involved.

no political axe to grind, of un-
questioned sincerity of purpose.
and of such talents as to be the
very type of man needed to join
with other leaders of the same
nature to write the word success
in place Of failure in the matter
of liauidating the State debt.
Hon. E. B. Dubuisson is the
right man and the fit leader for
the work to be done, and he will
undoubtedly be nominated, be-
cause the crisis is a grave one

one of her sons to do his duty On

FIRE ALARM SYsYEM
CONTRACT AWARDED
Mayor LeOb Objects To Letting
Ont Contract To Highest
Bedder

If the last meeting OF the
Raard of Aldermen the bids for
ire alarm system were re-
ao;ved. The Council awarded
me ne contract to the Gamewell
F;re E Alarm System, of Cincin-
nati at for $3.50, over the bid of
the M Star EElectric Co., Of New
York s1 City, whose bid was
sa525. or S1375 less than the
contract awarded.
The Mayor sternly objected to
the awarding of the contract to
The highest bidder, since he says
that the Council had no other
raason r, to accept it, other than
tFe fact that the Committee ap-
nT.o;nted =. to look over the bids
recommended the higher priced
company.
n his minority report the
Mayor is confident that he ex-
nresses the opinion or the ma
iority of the taxpayers. He
says:
has the right to award a public
contract to the highest fbidder
,nless it is conclusiveiy shown
that the lowest bidder is abso-
l11tely irresponsible and not ca
nable of fulfilling their part OF
the contract which has not been
done in this instance. "
When the talk of Opelousas
having a fire alarm system was
begun it was generally supposed
that the figures would not reach
such a kigh number. but the
Board of Aldermen represents
the people and therefore there IS
no way Of going around them,
since what they decree must be
law with those who placed them
n command. They must have
GOOD reasons to act as they do;
Opelousus will have a fire alarm
system not only of high price
but also of high quality.
The Mayor stated the above
facts at the meeting on last
Tuesday and openly declared that
he thought he would be backed

R. H. BODEMULLER 0 N
VACATION HERE.

Mr.. Fl. R. Bodemuller, son OF
Mr.. and Mrs. Herman Bode-
muller. Of this city, returned on
last Friday from Necaxa Mexico,
where he has been employed for
the last three years, as assistant
engineer in charge of the Necaxa
district of the Pearson Engineer
|ingsC Corporation s mammoth pow
er plant. Mr.. BodemulIer Ii a d
some difficulties in making the
trip from Mexico to San Antonio,
Texas. 1t took him six days to
make this run, when it generally
requires only "a hours to make
the trip.
The rebels captured the rail-
road leading into the United
States from Mexico, some months
back, and have burned one hum
dred railroad bridges, thereby
compelling the railroads to build
their road beds in the rivers, In
order to cross them. This, Mr..
Bodemuller says, required con-
siderable time. Nevertheless he
made the trip o. k. and is happy
to be back among the hospitable
people Of Opelousas, where he
was born and reared, and where
he will spend his two months
vacation.
The power plant where Mr.
Bodemuller was employed is the
sixth to the largest in the world;
it has a capacity Of 100, 600
horsepower. Tt covers SO O
squares miles Of territory, suply-
ing electricity to Mexico City.
which is 125 miles from the
plant, Pachuco $50 miles away
in the state of Hildago and Ell
Gro, which is $50 miles distant
m Necaxa. Everything
which is run by eleetriey in
Mexico City is supplied by this
great waterfall power plant,
even to the very water itself.
The power is carried from the
plant to these cities on a trans
mission lines. In order to pro-
tect these lines from the rebels
it is necessary to have soldiers
and Texas cowboys to protect
the lines day and night. The
rebels made several attempts to
dynamite the lines, but they
were driven off every time.
Mr.. Bodemuller will remain in
this city with his parents, whilst
on his two months vacation,
after which he will be assigned a
position with the same company,
but at another point than
Necaxa.

DR.. LAEISLAS LAZARl
VISITS OPELOUsAs
Seventh District Congress
Spends Thursday In
This City

The popular Congressman
from the Seventh Louisiana Dis
triet, Hon. Ladislas Lazaro was
in this city on Thursday shakinr
hands with his scores of friends !
The Clarion is glad to note that
DR.. Lazaro did net forget one az
his truest and staunchest friends
the Clarion itself, since he paid
q pleasant call at it's office be-
fore departing for his Grand
Prairie home.
As usual Mr.. Lazaro was an
agreeable visitor, talking of4
everything which interests his
people and which is of interest
It o him. He stated haf
the free sugar" was hard
on the farmer, but one thing
certain was that he was Tra,Ich
happier than the representative
from Louisiana, who come
from the sugar district. since
rice still has a little duty imposed
upon it, enough to keep the
foreign rice out Of the
u mite d State. Congress-
man Lazaro worked stenosulyl on
the rice question and Il is need,
less to say that he helpea con-
siderably in keeping rice from the
free list altogether.
Speaking about politics the
Clarion representative asked the
well known Seventh Louisiana
District Congressman If he ever
intended getting out of II.
Whereupon DR.. Lazaro said. II
expect to get out of the game
some day But that some day
will not be real soon, it is pre-
sumed, as it is generally Thought
that he will be a candidate next
year to succeed himself.
Representative Lazaro arrived
at his home in Grand Prairie
on Tuesday, from New Orleans.
He will remain in this parish
looking about his large farming
interests for several days. and
after he will have taken a rest.
will return to his new home, at
Washington.
We have just learned on Fri
day that Congressman Lazaro
was forced to make an imme-
date return to Washington that
day. at call teIegraphed by
Democratic leader Underwood.

Two Police Jurors To Build
Stretcr Of Model Road
As Experiment

Police Jurors st. Cyr and DIM
mick are planning to lay a mod
ell road, on the outskirts of the
city, to prove to the country
people, as well as the city folks,
that good roads are essential to
St. Landry. They intend to
modernize a few hundred yards
of road, out Of their own pock-
cts, with perhaps a little sub
scription money, simply to ex-
pertinent, and it is hoped that
they will have everything ready
before many weeks.
Whilst expressing himself on
the subject of good roads, on
last Sunday, Mr.. st. Cyr en1-
phatieally announced himself a
strong advocator of better and
more permanent roads for his
parish. The other popular and
well known member of the po-
lice jury has not been inter-
We've d. but it is generally
known that he favors model
roads, and for that reason, he is
willing to put up some money,
of his own accord, to lay down a
small stretch of public road.
It is not known, as yet, ex-
actly, what road they will ex-
pertinent on, but it is believed it
will be the road leading out of
town, towards Bellevue and Sun
set.
After a few hundred yards
will be built, it is the opinion of
Mr.. st. Cyr and Mr.. Din1mick
that the taxpayers of the par
ish will readily see the advan-
tages of better roads, and it will
not be long before they will be
glad to have the opportunity to
tax themselves for a good and
substantial system of highways.
Throughout the state parishes
have been voting good roads
taxes; and in the parishes where
good roads have already been
built, the taxpayers have never
had any reason not to be salts
fled with them.
st. Landry is tagging be-
hind her more progressive sis
ter parishes, but it is expected
that within the next few months,
she, too, will have come to real
ize the great advantages of good
roads, and the property owners
will soon come to the rescue of
old ST. Landry.
The two sturdy police Jurors
who have already displayed their
patriotic interest in the welfare
of their community are to be
highly commended for their will
ingness to sacrifice few dol
lars, as an experiment to their
felloW-citizens. If the same
spirit would prevail in every
portion of this parish St. Ian
dry would soon take its stand,
once more, with the more pro-
parishes of Louisiana.
