CALCULATIONS.
Judge Nuckoll,' Court was
occupied last Monday morning in
the trial of several citizens who
had refused to comply with the
ordinances Of the Police Jury
making it compulsory that all
owners of cattle have their stock
dipped the required number of
times in order to free the Parish
of these parasites. While His
Honor imposed sentences Of
$1,000 upon each of the men whom
charges were brought against, he
suspended the sentences upon
the promise that all would com
ply with the law in the future.
We regret indeed the misunder-
standing between the officials in
charge, and some of our citizens
who refused to dip their cattle,
more especially when most all Of
them have the finest stock in the
Parish and know the danger of
the cattle tick and how stock
= raising suffers as a consequence.
The only way in which quarantine
will ever be lifted off of cattle is
when we are declared free of
tick fever and now that the Police
Jury has invested several thou
sand dollars in building watts
throughout the Parish. it be-
hooves all to assist in helping to
make the undertaking a success.
1t was unfortunate that the Jury
did not place a vat within the
limits of this City so that all own
ers of stock could easily comply
with the demands of that Body
instead Of having to drive their
cattle several miles. which is not
only inconvenient, but a great
cost besides.

Last week witnessed the COM
pletion Of the contract of Messrs.
d eJersey e. Naff with the City
of New Iberia as regards the ce-
ment sidewalks which was con-
structed on almost every street Of
any Importance within the boun-
diaries Of this Corporation. AS
a whole, we do not believe there
have at any time been any con-
tracts that havebeen fulfilled in
a more wOrkmanlike manner than
that Of this firm. The property
owners who have had to comply
with these ordinances which re-
quired sidewalks along their
fronts, we believe are all satisfied
with the improvements despite
the depressed conditions which
confronted them when making
their first payments. Cement
sidewalks with the proper ma
terial which go to make them
are recognized as the
cheapest in the end as well as
more sanitary. There are but
few streets as stated before which
has been omitted and it will rot
be many years before every foot
of walk in the City limits will
also be made of the best material.
Mayor Sealy, we are pleased to
say, however, is determined that
it is seen fit to put down
any more cement walks to take
charge of it himself and save in
the future the profit made by the
contractors. This is an excellent
idea and in that case we are sat-
isfied no property holder will ever
raise any objections when they
are called upon to comply with
such ordinances. Being an ex-
per1enced cement contractor him.
self he is in position to superin-
-endent the work and the saving
thus effected will rebound to the
benefit Of the property holder.
