GRAND JURY EXONERATES
HENRY GRIVAT.

The Grand Jury which was
convened into regular session
last Monday, submitted only a
partial report yesterday after
noon about two o'clock. Much
surprise was created, when it be
came known that the Grand Jury
had failed to indict Mr.. Henry
Grivat. who last November shot
and killed Henry Seward near
Loreauville. From the evidence
submitted At the preliminary
trial, it was the general impress
sion that he would be indicted.
Some evidence, however, must
have been presented to the Jury,
which was composed of the best
citizenship Of the Parish, convlnc-
ing them that Mr.. Grivat had
killed in self-defense. From what
we hear the prisoner will remain
in jail untiD he can make arrange
ments to leave the country.
The personnel of the jury was
as follows: A. Daigre, Foreman ;
Lazard King, G. Prick, 7. J.
Walsh, V. j. Poirson, Abe lIirsch,
Morris Scharff, Rene Verret,
Henry Landry and J. c Minvielle.
The jury submitted only par
tiaI report of their work and will
make a final report Of their find
ings in other eases next Tuesday.

INTERCOASTAL CANAL.

We are in receipt of the sub
joined communication from Hon.
Henri Il. Gueydan, one Of the
first promoters of the Intercoastal
Canal which means so much to
our people and who, owing to the
great interest he manifested in
the project was made the Vice
President of the League and
Chairman for Louisiana. The
communication is as follows:
Gueydan, La, Jan. Z, 1914.
Editor Enterprise, New iberia,
La:
Dear Sir--In yesterdays
es-Democrat," page 5, you
will note an article on the Inland
Waterway, which is timely. The
Rivers and Harbors bill is now
being drafted, and we should OBJ
tain Sufficient funds to make &
good start on the following Sec
tions Of the Intercoastal.
From New Orleans to Morgan
City, From the Teche to Schoon-
er Bayou (inland.)
Now is the time to agitate this
question, and it is incumbent on
the press to start the ball roll
ling. Business organizations will
no doubt follow with strong res
olutions urging these important
improvements on Congress.
Very truly yours,

His Stomach Troubles Over.

Mr.. Dyspeptic, would you not
like to feel that your stomach
troubles were over, that you could
eat any kind Of food you desired
without injury? That may seem
so Unlikely to you that you do
not even hope for an ending OF
your trouble, but permit US to
assure YOU that it is not altogeth-
err impossible. If others can be
cured permanently, and thou
sands have been, why not you?

and tie price paid was thirty
cents al h0ur for man and team,
The County furnished the drags.
AS an inducement to the men to
DO good work, the County offered
prizes of $500, $500 and $1,000
for che best kept roads. Speci-
hcations for dra gging and rules
governing the contest were fur
nished each contestant. One
important rule was that that the
prizes would be awarded to the
men who kept the roads in best
condition at the least cost. In
order that the engineer might
keep III touch with the work, post
al cards We're furnished each man
and they were required to fill
them out every Monday showing
the distance dragged, hours con
~lmed and cost for the previous
week and mail them to the office
# the engineer. In this way II
was practically impossible for a
dishonest man to render an ac-
count for more time than he real
ly consumed without being de
tected or if he worked more than
was necessary, the reports of the
other contestants with his dis
closed it. On the other hand if
he should be neglecting his work
by not dragging sufficiently it
was likewise detected. This thir-
tv miles of road was kept in
splendid condition despite the fact
that two heavy SHOWS fell during
the four months. The most in.
teresting fact connected with the
contest was the road that was
awarded first prize, cost the Coun-
ty only $500 or $500 per mile. -
These suggestions | now sub
NIT to you and most urgently re-
quest that you consider each sep
arateIy; and that YOU adopt such
amongst them as appear satisfac-
tory to You and that you substi-
tute the others with measures
which will accomplish the ends
sought in the least time and TO
the greatest benefit Of the entire
Parish of iberia.
In conclusion, permit me to
thank each of you gentlemen for
your valuable aid and assistance
i'll all matters already disposed
of; and to beg your cooperation
for those measures yet to come be-
fore US, that at the expiration Of
our terms, we may retire with the
sense of having, at least, made
the effort to serve our Parish
orthyly and Of having done ali
within our power to advance its
interest

CASE OF RABIES NEAR 10
REAUVILLE.

Last Monday a mule on the
plantation of William Gonsoulin,
near Loreauville, developed a vlo-
lent case of rabies, biting mules
and horses in Mr.. Gonsoulin s
animal lot. Unfortunately Mr..
GOnsOulin and his friend Clet
Provost, not knowing that the
mule was affected with hydro
phobia attempted to doctor the
animal pending the arrival of
DR.. J. A. Goodwin and, conse-

tlemen have become inoculated

THE CANAL AND OTHER I'M
PROVEMENTS.

Last Tuesday evening the fol-
lowing gentlemen, Messrs. E. F.
Millard, John R. Taylor, Edwin
Estorge, Frank Decuir, ii. IL.
Shaded, T. Ashley and M. W..
Fisher, members Of the Canal to
Grand Lake committee, met with
Mayor Fontelieu and Commission
ers Villermin and Suberblelle to
discuss matters appertaining to
the two routes of the map recently
made by Surveyor Kemper, and
to study the most feasible and
practicable route to submit to the
people. 1t seemed to be the gen.
eral opinion among those present
that the short route necessitating
.bort a four mile cut at cost of
approximately 100000, connect
ing the Teche with the Lake
about four miles from Loreau-
vile through the property of the
Hutton Plantation and that of
Mr.. Euzebe Gonsoulin would be
the wiser route to select. The
first survey made by Mr.. Kemper
was for connection with the
Teche at or near Morbihan Plan
tation, about nine miles to be
dredged at a cost off $4,000.
This route, while retaining about
three thousand acres of land for
the residents in that locality
would cost a great deal more
than the people would approve
of at this time. 1t is true some
assistance would be given in that
section by voting a drainage tax,
but it was argued by many that
the sooner the Teche was reached
by those who would use the canal
with drags of timber the more
useful it would become. The
route as shown on the map
will be DETECTED about a half a
mile further to overcome some
objection which was raised by the
owners of Hutton Plantation.
Within few weeks it is probable
that the Canal and General I'm
prOvement tax movements will
so shape themselves that they can
be submitted to the taxpayers.
We are informed that ma
jority of the members of the
Sewerage Board think it unwise
to ask for tax for the sewerage
this year. Whether they change
their opinion in the near future
or not, We cannot phOphesy, but
there is nothing like submitting
it and finding out. AS far as
the general improvement tax is
concerned, we feel assured the
citizens of New Iberia are be-
ginning to appreciate that Main
Street should be paved, if for no
other reason than an advertise
ment. Opelousas has but recent
ly completed a sewerage system
and the contract for paving its
principal streets is already let.
Cannot New Iberia do as much
as Jeanerette, Opelousas Crowley
and other towns?

than most farmers think; and
every such animal-eVery hOrs.
or COW, or pig which does not do
enough labor, give enough milk,
put on enough flesh to pay fo.
feed consumed and the care re-
ceived by it's a positive injury
to its owner Let 5 look at i
few examples.
Some time ago Prof. j. f. Dug
gar wrote us about some farms on
which the mules worked only -
days in a year. Prof. Duggar
figured that each days work
done by one Of these mules cost
$l.53. There ara many farms
on which mules are kept a whole
year for % days work. Each
one of these days work costs
the owner Of the mules a dollar.
These mules are 'eating then
heads off, - for the mule adds to
the farm profits only when he
labOrs.
No reasonable man would blame
the mules for this failure to pay
their board They Were there
waiting for work to do. The
fault was clearly with the own
ers who arranged-Or disarrangcd
their farming so that the work
stock was left idle most of the
year 1t is safe to say, too, that
on these farms-every reader
knows what was raised on them
and how they were managed
there were times when more
mules were badly needed. These
farmers made the mistake of try
inc to put a whole farm into one
crop, whole year s farming
into five or six months.
Take another example: There
are thousands of cows that do
not produce $50 pounds of but
terfat i'll year. Some of them
fail because they are too poorly
fed to do it; many others fail
simply because they are not that
kind of cOw',because they
have not been bred for milk pro-
duction, and simply cannot con-
vert enough feed into milk to
pay for their upkeep. Every
such COW as this in a dairy herd
stead of increasing them; and
the owner is simply making him
self poor wOrkin to feed that
cow.
Yet it is folly to blame the old
cow. She is doing the best she
can fer herself; and it isn't her
business to think for her owner.
II ) his business to get the scales
and mil'k-testing outfit and
find out what the cow is dom.
If she is living on his labor, tho
thing for her is to 90 first to lie
fattenlng pen and then to the
Sid USnIef-nOuSe.
One more example,: In some
places one can see hogs in bare
lots or in little dirty pens wait
ing patiently-or impatiently
for feeding time and their buck
ct Of swill and armful of corn.
Sometimes these hogs are thin;
sometimes they are fat; but it is
safe to say that almost everyone
Of them is eating his head off,
right there is plain sight of his
owner.
1t would be foolish, however,
to blame the hogs for this. II
they had some alfalfa OR cOwpeas
or soy beans, or skimmilk to mix
with the corn-or rather to mix
the corn with-they would pay
bigger prices for it than the far
mer would be likely to get any
where else.
Three great reasons there are,
then, why farm animals "eat
heads off, (I They are not
kept at work; (2) they are of
the worng type, and (3) they ara
not properly fed. And the OWL
err rather than the animal is at
fault in all three cases.-Pro-

COMMENDABLE WORK.

In another column, we publish
an interesting message from Pres
ident King to the Police jury III
which is reviewed the work done
on Parish roads during the past
eighteen months and mention
made Of proposed undertakings
which will shorten travel from
several important points Of the
Parish to the County seat. The
activities Of the present Police
Jury in all public matters is to
be commended; but especially are
their efforts to provide the public
with proper road facilities to be
praised. There is no question
but that good roads can be con-
structed from our soil if drainage
is provided; and, as DR.. King
points out in his message, this
drainage of roads can be accomp-
lished with the funds derived
from the sale of $40, 100000 road
bonds recently floated by the
Parish AIreary the ditching ma
chine has been purchased and at
Wednesdays session, the Jury
approved of the plans suggested
by the President and adopted
resolutions providing funds for
the employment of a Civil Engi-
neer and for Incorporation of the
ditcher so that We assured
that no delays will occur in the
prosecution of road improvement.
In the immediate vicinity Of New
Iberia, We have a practical dem
onstration of what drainage and
intelligent road building will do,
under the supervision of the mem
bers from this, the Sixth Ward,
Mr.. Lourd has performed wonG-
ers on all roads leading into this
City. With the limited means
at his command, he first under
took the improvement of Lourd s
Lane, always considered amongst
the worst stretches in the Parish.
By simply digging a lateral ditch
into the one leading into the City
Canal, and rounding off the sur
face, the lane was transformed
into one Of the best avenues to
this City. The Morbihan and
Segura roads were treated in like
manner with the same results.
More recently, the Petite Anse
road, a source Of annoyance and
anxiety to all travellers, has been
drained into Rhodere Coulee and
rebuilt in a substantial way and
now provides a safe entrance
into New iberia for the first time
in many years. At present, Mr..
Lourd is constructing new road
leading from this Petite Anse roa l
Rhodere road, which when
.Npiesss7 will serve as a shorter
hd safer route to town to a
sarge section of the Parish. What
has been accomplished in this
neighborhood can be done
throughout the Parish and the
citizens should lend every assist
ance to the, Jury in it's efforts to
improve conditions. The Good
Roads Association, a splendid or
ganizatiOn which at one time did !
much towards creating the good
roads sentiment should be re-
vived; and by it's cooperation, as
sist the Police Jury to provide
the Parish with system of perm
anent good roads which will for
all times serve to enhance the
agriculture the industrial and the
compefcial welfare of Iberia.
