WHERE AND HOW TO VOTE.

The polls for the special road-bond
election in the first road district next
Tuesday will be located as follows:
First ward-First poll, E. P. Domi-
nique's store; second poll, E. P.
Melancon's store, Smoke Bend.
Second Ward-C Cassard's warehouse
Third ward d-DonaldsonVille court
house.
Fourth ward -Esneault & Boston
sawmRl.
The question to be voted on is
whether authority shall be given the
police jury to issue bonds in the
sum of $35, 200, bearing 5 per cent in
terest and running not longer than
twenty years, for the: purpose of con-
structing solid and permanent gravel
roads along the river from the low
er Iberville to the upper St. James
line, and from Donaldsonville and
Port Barrow to the Assumption line
on both sides of Bayou Lafourche.
The way to vote-the only way
for good citizens-is YES.
The Donaldsonville chief., 1913-03-22
will Select Postmaster Himself.

Much interest was created here by
the publication of a despatch from
this city in the New Orleans morning
papers of Monday to the effect that
"a local business man has received
letter from Congressman Morgan
stating that he would not authorize
the holding of primary election
here to select candidate for post
master, but would himself recommend
someone for the position as so4p as
these matters are taken up by the
postoffice department. 1t is learned
that A. J. Schroeder is the local bust
mess man who received the letter
from Congressman Morgan, and the
gentleman to be recommended by the
latter for appointment as postmaster
of Donaldsonville is Wi1fred Guigou.
The Donaldsonville chief., 1913-03-22
GIVE DoNALDsoNVILLE A LIFT

Every citizen Of DonaIdsonVille who
feels the slightest interest in the
towns Well-being and progress ought
to regard it al privilege and duty to
vote "yesn next Tuesday on the
proposition to adopt the commission
form of municipal government.
Politics and personalities should
be wholly ignored in this matter.
They have no connection with the
issue and are net involved in its de-
cision. The only essential point is
to substitute al new and improved
system Of municipal government for
one that Is antiauated. inefficient and
unsuccessful.
/ That the commission plan is best
has not been and cannot be denied,
and the identity Of the commission.
ars is a secondary and minor con.
sideration Even il the most desira
BILE man should not be chosen in the
first instance for any one Of the com
nlissionershiD ait is an easy ano m
simple matter for the people to re
! can him from Office and put sUne
body else in his place.
New Orleans, Shreveport, Alexan
dria, Lake Charles, Natehitoches
/ Hammond, New Iberia and Jennings
are some OF the progressive cities
and towns Of Louisiana that have
adopted the commission form O
municipal government. It has beer
beneficial and popular wherevel
tried, and if this is the case every
where else, why should it not be 81
in DonaldsonVille?
| We doubt if any of the place:
named needed the change as mucl
as Donaldsonville needs it. Certainr
none could need it more. Give thu
| town a lift by voting "yes' mex
Tuesday.
The Donaldsonville chief., 1913-03-22
THE MEN AND THE MEASURE.

AS we have said elsewhere, the on
Iy real issue to be decided at the
special town election next Tuesday
and Inefficient system of municipal
government shall be replaced by a
better one.
1t is a question Of measures, not
men, and the new plan of government
ia so much superior to the old that
it would be to the public interest to
approve the change even il the men
chosen to administer the improved
form were not the best the town af-
Hprds. They will have better tools
to work with and can accomplish bet
ter results accordingly. Then, if they
do not prove worthy and capable, the
people have the right to recall them
and put better men in their places.
There can be no reasonable objec-
tion, however, urged against the tick
ct of young, progressive, public-spirit-
ed and able citizens nominated to
compose the first municipal com
mission-Walter Lemann for mayor,
Aramis j. Melancon for commission
er Of finance, James Won Lotten for
commissioner OF streets and parks.
They are all too Well-known, to
their fellow citizens to need intro
duetion or encomium at our hands.
They may be depended upon to Ia
bor for the advancement and up
building of the town. There can be
no apprehension that they will at
tempt to abuse fhe authority their
respective positions will give them.
SO both the men ana the measure
are all right Therefore, every citi-
gen should go to the poll next Tues
day and vote for them.
The Donaldsonville chief., 1913-03-22
APPROVED BY NEW ORLEANS.
Mayor and Commissioners Give Their
Views Upon Efficiency of Com
mission Form of Government
Promises Splendid Results.

Asked for their opinions as to how
the commission form of government
in New Orleans is working out, and
whether or not it has thus far met
with their expectations as to re-
suits, present and prospective, Mayor
Martin Behrman and the four other
commissioners in charge of the va
rious departments of the New Orleans
city government set forth their
conclusions as follows:
Martin Behrman, Mayor: 4'#
I can say that for the past two
months, during which time it has
been in operation here, the system
has worked smoothly and with de-
gree of satisfaction that has been, to
say the least Of it, comforting.
A feature of the new government
which I have had frequent occasion
recently to observe and to approve,
is the remarkable facility and ex-
pedition with which under it's opera
tions the business of the city is han
died. know of nothing within my
experience to compare with it in this
respect
