A special messenger was sent
to Baton Rouge last night with
the election returns of Beaure-
gard parish, SO that the commits
sions of the newly elected officers
may be made out and forwarded
before Jan. l. The authority Of
Calcasieu over the Beauregard
territory ceases tomorrow, and
failure of the new officers to
qualify in time would leave the
new parish without legal organi-
zation.
Failure to receive returns from
two boxes was the cause of the
delay.

his evening called a mim airy or

Split-Log Drags Cost Very Lit.
tie and Will Make Good,
SeryiceabIe Roads.

I'VE have more than once
pointed out" says Southern
Good Roads, that where a bond
issue or a heavy road tax is i'm
possible owing to the strength OF
the opposition or to the poverty,
there can be nevertheless good
earth roads built at very small
expense. The chief thing is CO.
operation among the people of
the community. There is no ex-
cuse for bad roads in any farm
ing section-none whatever. For
the split-log drag is the poor
mans friend, and with it many
people, however poor, however
far from the day of macadam,
can make and enjoy good roads.
LET US take, for example, a
stretch of bad road in the coun-
try. Say it is ten miles in length
and that ten farmers live at in
tervals along its course. 1t is
very bad in summer and next to
impossible in winter. These ten
farmers decide that they are not
going to put up with the holes
and ruts and Washouts any
longer, and they come together.
They agree that they will divide
the road into ten sections of one
mile each, and every farmer is
to take charge of one mile. They
select one of their number to act
as foreman of all. They fall to
work and build split-log drags.
These cost practically nothing.
The Office of public roads, United
States Department of Agricul-
ture, will gladly furnish inform
alton as to the construction, and
if possible will doubtless send an
expert to give preliminary in
structions.
when the farmers have
everything ready, the foreman
calls them out after each rain to
drag their several sections. This
is repeated until in an amazingly
short time that miserable old
road has been transformed into
a splendid highway, smooth,
well drained, well shaped, a
thing of beauty and a joy for
ever, without the expenditure of
enough money for the farmers
to miss it. They receive meal
culable benefit from the road,
and it serves as an object lesson
to the rest of their parish, caus-
ing others to go and do likewise,
until in the course Of no great
time the road situation in the
parish has been revolutionized
and the way paved for the day
when permanent stone roads will
be built.
Why not try it in your COM
munity?"

Peonage, holding a man for
debt, is prohibited and the man
or woman who holds a negro for
debt, takes the chance of getting
mixed up with the Federal courts.
Our own candid opinion is, that
no farmer should allow any negro
field hand to contract a debt
larger than the crop planted,
could, under favorable seasons
and fair prices for eotton, pay.
It is not in good judgment to
have a negro carrying around q
statement showing a balance that
is large and that cannot be paid
by the man to whom the. RECON
would like to live the following
year. We do believe that small
balances will and ought to be
paid, or, an assumption to pay
out the crop grown by the negro
at his new home. Right is right.
and we do believe that every
negro in Morehouse Parish is en-
to just treatment. -Mer

Georgia Archives in
Peril of Destruction,
Asserts Phil Cook

Secretary OF State Phil Cook Tues
day issued an informal statement in
regard to the Importance Of the State
preserving the old records which are
filed in the Statehouse.
According to Mr. Cook many Of the
oldest records in the State Archives
Department are in imminent danger
Of destruction. Most of the books
are now stored away in cases which
could be destroyed by fire and many
of the old maps have been rendered
practically valueless by excessive
handling
Mr.. Cook points out that whereas
the State Of North Carolina has eX-
pended something like $4,000 recent
ly for the preservation of its old rec
ords, Georgia is spending less than
$4,000 appropriated last year for the
purchase Of glass cases. A much
larger sum is needed Immediately, he
says.

To Guard Credits
Under Money Bill

WASHINGTON. Oct. 2l-An
amendment to the pending currency
bill for the completion of the machin-
cry of the new banking and currency
system before any part of It is set in
operation, will be adopted by the Sen
ate Banking and Currency Committee,
according to opinions expressed by
'kep-o1 asll!umoo sql 10 Hl!LorBm
The economic cause of the amend
ment lies in the alleged need of banks
for an institution to rediscount paper
for them simultaneously with their
transfer of capital to the proposed
Federal reserve banks. Otherwise,
the transfer of these funds will result,
it is declared, in a contraction of
credits and disturbed business.

Huerta's action in ordering n so
