TO THE PUBLIC.

In last weeks issue Of the New
iberia Enterprise appeared a
card from us purporting to an
nounce that we were the exclu-
sive agents for the Delaval Cream
Separators, and soliciting the
trade. At the time of the inser
ton of this announcement we
were under the belief that such
was the case, and this from our
understanding Of the effect of a
contract which we had executed
and given to the agent Of the
Delaval Separator Company.
It has now developed that this
contract was not in force and that
the New iberia Hardware Com.
pany were still the agents. Our
announcement was not intended
to do any injury whatsoever to
the New Iberia Hardware Com
pany, but was simply inserted as
a business announcement in con-
nection with the business in
which we are engaged.
We wish by this method to dis
avow any intention to injure in
any way the New iberia Hard
ware Company in it's handling of
the Delaval Cream Separat0rs,
and should for any reason we do
not become the agents for these
separators, we still wish to vouch
for their quality and recommend
them to the public.
Respectfully,
DALLAS & BERTRAM.

Several members of the
Board of Directors of the New
iberia Chamber of Commerce ap-
peared before the City Commits
sioners last Thursday morning
seeking to secure a donation in
behalf of the organization. We
are pleased to report to our read
ers that the Commissioners read
lily proffered their support by vo-
ting a donation of $3.50 to be paid
the Board on a basis Of $4,000 per
month. 1t is the intention OF
the Chamber of Commerce to
make a hike appeal to the Police
Jury at the next regular meet
inc. 1t is more than probable
the members Of the Police Jury
realize the importance of promot-
ing the general interest OF the
Parish and will, if possible help
the cause along. From the In
cipiencv of the Association the
concensus of opinion among the
members was that the time OF the
paid Secretary would be almost
exclusively devoted to assisting
our farmers in marketing their
crops at the different seasons OF
the year, which is the most es-
sential thing that could 'be done
for the good Of the farmer.
Aside from that the Secretary
will do his best with the assist
ance of the Directors to get buy
ers in this field who will pur-
chase the farm products at the
best prices obtainable such as
other communities are doing at
the present time. At our sister
city of Lafayette the local Board
has accomplished a great deal IN
this line of work and we cannot
see any plausible reason here why
the same could not be acc Omp-
iished in Iberia Parish. When
sifted down to it's final analysis
our farmers themselves should
take an interest in the move
ment to make the Chamber OF
Commerce a success as they, more
than any other set Of business
men will reap direct results from
the organization once it is IL
nanced. 1t would be a good
idea for the farmers to make
known their wants and we feel
certain the Chamber of Com
merce will do their best to help
promote their welfare. It is only
in cooperation that We can ever
hope to accomplish anything for
the general good Of all and for
that reason the Chamber of Com
merce, we feel certain will get
some financial assistance also
from the Police Jury.

 The singer, readerland violin ist were all excbeptionally fine, their numbers being much en- joyed by their hearers.
 It is to be regretted that the course of attractions have not been patronized more largely, for the ladies of the School Im- provement Association have done all in their power to make a success of the different fea- lures, but whether they hay re- alized anything in the way of dollars and cents for the school Improvement work, and wheth- CT they will make any further attempt to have another course next year has not been decided.

NUMBER 281
Both Claim Estate.

Little Rock, Feb. 26.-One of the most remarkable cases that has come before the Arkansas supreme court has just been fil- ed on appeal from the Scott cir cult court. It is the case of J M. Evatt, administrator of the estate of Frank Miller, vs. An ma Mier Cor Miller) ct al.
 Two women, one of whom claims that the other is her sis ter, claim to have been the "le- gal wives of Frank Miller, and as such entitled to his estate.
 Miller died in Scott county April II, 1911.
 It is set forth in the evidence that Annie Uher married Frank Mier, known in Scott county as Frank Miller, in Brazos county, Texas, February 16, 1885. Af- ter the birth of their first son, now party to the suit, her husband left her. They had been married by a Catholic priest. She was told by her hrother that her husband had left with her sister, Ludmilla. Uher, who had lived at their house. Fifteen years later, says Anna Miller, her sister, re- turned, offered to shake hands with her and give her money if she would forgive her for what she had done, but she refused to do so. Anna Mil Ter sued for the estate,and it was awarded to her and her son by the lower court, as there was no record that she had ever been divorced from Miher. She admitted that after Miller left her, however, she had lived with w. w. Cooper, and later with Joe Richardson, as a wife, and has several children by Cooper.
 Mrs. Ludmilla Miller says that she does not think Anna Miller is her sister, who is older than she and does not look like her. She says that she was legally married to him, but their mar riage license was burned. They live at Talihina, Oklahoma, for a number of years, and they have four children.

 Little Rock, Feb. 27.-Despite the over enthusiasm of several Little Rock boosters the huge electric sign which hangs across Main street at the intersection of Markham, proclaiming to the world that Little Rock will have a population of 100000 in 1920, must come down. In it's place a signmay be erected to show. that Little Rock has hopes of 10O,- 900 residents in 1920, but a stronger claim will not be toler- ated by the city council.
 This sign was erected several months ago, and at the time members of the council resented it, they considering the claim to he absurd. A committee was appointed by council to deal with the matter, but nothing was done for a long time that it was thought the question had been dropped. The committee held a meeting on Tuesday of this week and council will be asked to ap- prove it's recommendation to take the sign down and replace it with one of more modest cla;ms .=f i4
