DECISION IN ARKANSAS
SIMILAR TO OUR CASE
Bogalusa Enterprise,
Bogalusa, La.

Gentlemen
We are very fortunate to have
been able to arrange to care for the
Parish Indebtedness. as there has.
just been a decision of the Federal
Court in Ark, which orders the AS
SCISSOR to increase the assessment
from a valuation of thirty three
cents on the dollar to full valuation
to meet defaulted Indebtedness of
S15O,OOO.0C.
The case is identically the same
as in the case Of Washington Parish.
The Indebtedness was to have been
paid out of the surplus funds, the
County Commissioners spent all the
money and the certificate holders
brought suit, obtained judgement
and the Court ordered the assess
ment raised to full valuation to
meet the payments. They will
have their assessments raised to
three times what they have been
before.
By carefully watching the ex-
penditures | believe we shall be
able to save enough out of our pres
ent receipts to meet the indebted
ness. | find that during the first
half of the year there was a mater
ial saving over the same period of
last year.
If we had not arranged to issue
certificates we should undoubtedly
have been placed in the position of
the people in Ark, and where our
taxes we're $1,000 they would have
been increased to $50 as it is we
shall not have any increase.
want to thank those in the
Parish who have given me so much
help and who have expressed so
much confidence in me, l assure
you appreciate it and shall use
every effort to retain their confden.
g..
Yours very trvly,
E. L. Sanford.

Do YOU KNOW HOW THE
WORD 0. K" WAS ORIGINATED

There are numerous popular
phrases which one hears every day
that have been handed down from
one generation to another for hun
dreds of years; and in many in
stances they can be traced to a
quaint and curious origin.
How many of you know the ORR
gin of o. K.?' About the year 1910,
when Mr.. Alvah Adams organized
the Adams Express Company, a
young man from the rural districts
entered Mr., Adams Office, asking
for work. He was hired, and began
work by sweeping the office and
assisting in receiving express par
ce'S. The boy kept his eyes and
ears open and took mental notes Of
the system employed by the ship
ping clerk, who placed upon the
managers desk each night a list of
the packages marked All correct"
One day the clerk was i'll, and the
country lad was asked to make the
list-or, rather, to check it. When
he finished he placed the list on the
desk, and on the outside were these
letters, %. K.' Upon being asked
what they meant, the verdant and
uneducated lad said %. X, means
all correct" Mr.. Adams could hard
ly control his laughter long enough
to send the young man about his
work: but laugh he did, and with it
came the thought of a striking alb.
breviation which he adopted eyer
after. These initials are, as YOU
know, in general use with all ship
! DerS and with word or pen almost
the world over.

RATCHET IS BURIED AND
HANDLE NOT STICKING UP

Governor-elect Theo. G. Bilbo, Of
Mississippi, is an optimlst. AS he
expresses it the war is over in Miss
i,sippi and some folk are going to
work mighty hard to bring about a
golden era of prosperity in the state.
He expects results and that is why
he is an optimist.
In the Grunewald Hotel at New
Orleans Mr.. Bi!bo said he was going
to give Mississippi the most agrees
i've, progressive and reconstructive
administration the state ever had.
How about my political enemies?'
and the Goyernor-elect repeated the
question" We'll, I'll treat them all
right if they let me alone. | have
| nothing against them; | whipped
them at the polls and that was
enough
Yes I've buried the Ratchet, not
like a friend of mine suggested,
though; with the handle sticking out
the ground. am going to put in
several months studying the various
departments of government in Miss
issippi to determine just what the
state needs. As | find the needs
l will put them in my message to be
presented to the Legislature, which
meets in January at the time of my
Inauguration"
Mr.. Bilbo came from Poplarville
Thursday night and will leave Fri
day for Vicksburg via Jackson.

year-old Freddie Smith was uneasy
today. Freddie has tuberculosis,
and few friends; none of affluence'
Ever since the doctors told Freddie
he had but a few more weeks to

dropped by visitors to the charity
ward. He hopes to get enough to
buy his coffin. He has described
in detail to his his nurse just the
kind he wanted a nice white one.
Freddie was worse today, but that
didn't worry him; only that it
might come before he has enough
quarters does he fear death.

cefved last week signed by IS Aber-
deem residents, selected Mrs. Ruth T..
Scofield for the place. Councilman

ing the plan suggested by Mayor j.
8. Mckee of Hoquiam and favored by
Mayor ]. M. Phillips Of Aberdeen, un-
der which both cities and, possibly,
the county would bear the burden.
The motion to employ Mrs. Scofield for

put by Councilman Fraser, chairman
Of the police committee, ayes to 8
nays.
After considerable discussion the
petition OF the Hotel Savoy for re-
