BUSINESS rs POLITICS.

Hon. Gilbert L. Duprs, repre-
sentative from st. Landry, has ex-
pressed himself a. opposed to .
Constitutional Convention and be
is certainly correct, especially
when it is announced that the
first object Of . New Constitution
10 to raise more money. which
means increased assessment and
increased taxation.
The people of Louisiana are
over assessed and over taxed, and
almost every official over paid and
waste and extravaganas displayed
everywhere.
II the Legislature was oompos-
cd of good, business men instead
of greedy politicians who are liv-
ing fat on the money Of the tax
payers, it would soon bs discover.
cd that the State of Louisiana
could be run better than at pre-.
sent with half the money paid to
the State at present. What 10
wanted 10 not more money, bat
honesty, economy and work for
your money. II every State off,
cial and smploys would b paid
90 they are paid in commercial
circle and on the same principle Q
large amount of money could be
saved to the tax payers every year.
Ifs Constitutional Convention
is to be called, lot the Legislature,
put provision in tho call that on
ly business men will be qualified,
and that the msmb srs of the Con-
vention will not b eligible to Of
fee for twenty years, then you
will have . Convention for the
benefit of the taxpayers and not
for the benefit of greedy politi-
CLANS.
Cut down the assessment, cut
down the rate of taxation, cut
down the sxtravagant salaries OF
public officials and practice soono-
my in every stats and other de-
partments aud you will find that

UNITY OF ACTION is
WHAT is NEEDED.

The meeting called last Friday
night to discuss road matters, We
arc sorry to cay WAS somewhat
disappointing. There are too
many different opinions aud ideas
and too much persistsncy on the
part of some of our people to come
to some satisfactory understand
ing to DO of benefit to this town.
Matters of general importance
should be discussed with calm and
reason and not with heated anger.
We have on our roads bad holes
and some places that could be
quickly repaired and made passa-
Bile, this should be done without
delay or the business Of the town
will suffer in consequences.
The meeting finally ended in
appointing q committee to con-
suit an attorney in regard to the
recall law.
We are Of the opinion that the
Police Jurors are antagonistic to
the best interest of St. Martin.
Vile and should be rscs lied. but
W must bear in mind that their
recall will take times if successful
and in the mean time your roads
will remain bad.
The voting Of . tax will take
some time, at least ono or two
years before you can sell your
bonds, can you stand our bad roads
for that long time?
The former Police Jurors sp'
propriatsd $1,000 and $1,000 every
year for roads and left debt of
W believe, $4,000; the present
Police Jury cut down tho appro
pristion, aud have for this yea
| 81, 800 and will leave a road deb
Of $4,000.
II Compare the financial condition
and compare the road condition
and you will easily reach you
conclusion.
