THE BANKS DIDN'T FIGHT POS.
tai. BANKS.

Doesn't it seem strange that in
spite of the tremendous popular de-
mdhd for it, the government fought
for years against parcel post sys-
tenn and at last give way grudgingly,
with a ridiculously small appropria-
ton for it's establishment? The pos
tai banks were readily established,
with little opposition, although there
was no great demand for them,
and there has been comparatively IT.
tie use of them
The only people hurt by the parcel
post is one of the most grasping mo-
hOpolies on earth-a monopoly that
pays it's employees minimum wages,
EFFORTS the highest possible price for
it's services, renders such service at
its own convenience and has such a
complex and confusing scale Of charges
that in many cases its employees are
not able to make the same charge
for the same service twice in sue
cession. - Lake Charles American
Press.
And it may be added that by an
ingenious arrangement Or lack Of
arrangement, had it so that express
age was frequently paid at both
ends, the express companies reaping
thousands of dollars profit, as refund
ing is made troublesome proce1s,
and full of delay. From the nature
of the case, as in the receipt of gifts,
for instance, double payment was
not traced, the donor unsuspecting
an added charge and the receiver too
polite to make any comment.
Confronted by the parcel post, The
express companies speedily devised
simple, but effective, system of Ia
bells that put a stop to this trouble.
But the companies must do more
than this, If they would please the
people.

TIME FOR ACTION.

Several persons, who have come to
the parish lately with a view Of buy
ing land and making their homes
here, have declined the idea" as
the darkeys say Their reason IS
not that the Land is infertile, or 100
dear, for it is certain that the soil is
fertile, and land is offered remarka
bly, cheap. 1t is not because there
are no schools and churches, for
both are here 1t is not because of
the local government, for it is unus-
uaLly good, and taxes assessed are
not heavy.
The sole and only reason was be.
cause of the roads. People, who are
accustomed to good roads, would not
move to Eden itself if it had no
thOroughfares They simply cannot
conceive of existence where there
is no means of getting to and from
the home place, while their business
training teaches them the folly Of
expecting to make anything when
transportation to market is both cost
ly and troublesome, ofttimes impos,
sible.
This condition therefore confronts
us. With an entirely inadequate pop
ulation for tilling the soil and build
!ns and sustaining large local com
merce, of which so fertile a section
tlOn Is capable it behOoves all to
take steps to bring about a change.
And this not only to improve the sit
uatton by inducing immigration, but
to enable the home people to find re-
lief from the heavy indirect taxa
ton that bad roads lay upon them.
The movement which Mr.. Richard
son is trying to start deserves tho
hearty cooperation of all.
The time has come for action.
Something must be attempted and
at once. Every body should get to-
gether on this, and start road-ma

FOR A SOLID STREET.

While the talk of bad roads is the
most burning subject Of general cor
versation, the talk includes the
streets of st. FranciSville, which are
in horrible condition repeating the
experience of last winter. This has
rot been from neglectfulness of the
municipal authorities, but is generally
agreed to be the result of mistaken
policy on their part. Time and work
and money have been freely spent
On the streets, but the plan of filling
holes and ruts with white clay, which
forms into a sticky mass when wet,
sort of perennial putty as it were,
has resulted in roadways that are a
terror to man and beast. Though the
council has presently stopped the use
CT this clay, that which remains is
sufficient to continue the bad con-
ditiOns.
Country roadmakers say that dis
aster follows the use of this white
clay, and when they find deposit
Instead of allowing it to remain,
they dig it out. This fact should
be pointer to the town council.
But all of us, the Council includ-
ed, will prove that We can learn lit
tie from experience if these roads
do not afford a strong argument for a
determined effort to make a solid
permanent highway from say The
store of NJ. & E., Wolf to the L. R.
& N. station. Enough money has al
ready been spent to make good be.
ginning on some substantial work.

this, and progressive as we'll to do it,

OUR ANNIVERSARY.

This week The True Democrat
starts on the twenty-second year of
uninterrupted publication, and we
take this opportunity to thank the
friends who have stood Loyalty by us
and made possible any success which
we may have attained.
AS will be seen by reference to
the Pictures Of the Past on the
front page, our course has been the
same from the initial issue. The fact
that we have, attained some degree
of success in the newspaper world is
proof ample that honesty and indie
pendence in journalism is not with
out its proper reward. This does
not mean that the paths of country
editors are easy footing. On the con-
trary, it is harder to pursue an ab-
sOlutely untrammeled course with a
newspaper in small town than it
is with one in a metropolis, for in
the former the relations Of the pub
Usher with the public is far more in
innate and the demands made upon
him harder to fulfill. However, we
have done the hewing, leaving the
chips to take care of themselves.
The fact that some editors pay more
attention to caring for the chips than
to the hewing is responsible for many
of the shortcomings of their papers
The path of The True Democrat
has never been one Of ease. Located
as it is in one of the parishes IN
the State where a large majority Of
the inhabitants contribute in no wise
to the support of a paper, we have
been forced to draw support from
other parts of the State. For the
past six years times have actually
been hard in this parish. With the
boil weevil destroying the cotton
crops and the flood of last year, the
parish is probably in as bad fix f.
nancially as it has been at any time
since the years Immediately follow
ing the war. Yet this period Of time
has witnessed a revolution in the
equipment of The True Democrat
plant. From the antiquated plant Of
six years ago has grown the splen-
did one of today, which is probably
the best of any located in any town
the size of this one in the South.
In this connection we will state
that the limit has not been reached
yet, for today the editors are in
New Orleans for the purpose of Civ
ing the order for a machine which
is the last word in composing room
equipment. The purchase price Of
this remarkable machine is more
than the value of the average COM
plete country printing office. With
it we will be able to better serve
our patrons and to make West Felici-
ana a little bigger spot on the print
ing map.

DOING GOOD WORK.

Louisiana, whose name is not at the

somewhat different lines, high

good work over and above his regu-

entire day at the building and

him engaged in either work or health.
full athletics. For the latter he has
provided gymnastic bars, springboard
fer jumping and other appliances, an,
N consequence the boys find it more
interesting to stay for work or play

fun is the usual quest of the boys
in country town, and when moth

in improving the school and it's sur

The suffragettes, disappointed of
favorable legislation, have broken out
into fresh deeds of violence. Their ar
gument, rather say excuse for such
course, is that the vote was given
to the common people--the men Of
England in the first place, only be-
cause of demands made through vio-
lence. But the suffragettes should
consider that times have changed
since that day, and reason not brute
force has potency; and in any case
they, the suffragettes, have neither
the brute force of men or the unan-
unity of purpose and action.
When a majority of wommen want
the ballot they will get it without re-
sorting to violence.
