THE LAND DEAL.

IduuciIlIIlt, Id, Dcc. %, IL.
Editor Enterprise:
Mr.. G. Harrison Parker, in Civ.
ing news to the pu'''Iic relative tC
the proposed Soniat land deal
has done the State a service. Tins
4 land is situated in the parish of
st. Landry. The choice timber
was removed years ago. 1t is
situated in the poorest timber sec
ton Of the South. The timber is
of an extreme low grade, and con
sidercd worth less than a dollar
per thousand feet on the stump.
! Because Of its inaccessibility it is
difficult and expensive to log. The
owners own estimate shows that
there are thirty-nine million feet
Of Cypress of inferior grade on
the land. A skidder outfit, if the
operation Of such was possible,
would cost more than the value of
the stumpagc. Thirty mil
lion feet of timber scattered over
1900 acres gives an average of
less than 5000 feet per acre. No
man ever operated a skidder sue
cessf'llly on. such lands. even if
the timber was of first grade. A
pullbOat cannot be operated in
this swamp. and to depend upon
float is an absurd thought.
This timber has been cruised by
many prospective purchasers, and
the writer's information is that
each and every one has turned it
down. some Offering less than
even a dollar per thousand feet.
1t is startling to learn that two
members of the Board Of Control
Of the State Penitentiary are now
urging the payment of such an
enormous sum for the purchase of
this timber. Mr.. George Knight,
of st. Martin Parish, a practical
timber estimator. knows the land
get his views. Mr.. Dick Davis,
member Of the legislature elect
from the parish of St. Martin, a
practical timber estimator and
practical lumberman, has been
over every foot of the land. Let
the State Board Of Control get his
views before plunging this State
in the proposed debt which the
next legislature if the deal is con-
must necessarily be
called upon to investigate and
strike with nmllity.
Mr.. Editor, get the views of

timber, its location, it's inacces-

THE HABIT OF THRIFT.

There is one new leaf which cv
everybody plans to turn over ev
cry New Year day. 1t reads
something like this: 81 will
save so much of my salary every
week" Thousands figure but
few get that bank account start
ed, is the observation Of the
Shreveport Times.
There are young men and
women earning their first money
wives who by economy can
shave down their household cX-
pcnscs houSeaiIS - mlddlca"ed
women, old men on small hrt
regular salaries many who
would like TO keep this GOOD Now
Year resolntion-if they could
Just manage to get that savln~s
account opened.
But the marbcI and bronze Of a
bank appalIs them. Or they shy
at Offering only 81 to a clerk who
is accustomed. they think. to
handle piles Of gold pieces. The
interior Of a bank is a fearful
mystery to many persons.
Here is where the Christmas
savings fund movement which the
banks all over the country have
iauguratcd comes in. And that
is why this movement became
popular from the start. When
the banks began to show that
they were eager to serve the
small dcpOsitor and even went
of their way to keep the smallest
accounts. they opened the way for
hundreds not only to embrace
the opportunity to save, but also
to become familiar with the in
side of bank and to start ac-
counts without feeling any en-
tarrassmcnt.
1t was in pursuance of this
very object that Uncle Sam es-
tablishcd his postal savings sys-
tenn a few years ago. His bank is |
in the postoilicc building which !
belongs to everybody and where
everybody is at home. His de- ,
positors are of all ages over ten
years. He will sell 1O-ccnt postal
savings stamps, and when nine
stamps arc affixed to the card. he
will open an account with the
holder and exchange it for a 81
savings certificate. !
And he will pay depositors 2
per cent interest on accounts left
with him for one year.
Prosperity is with us. As long
as Europe holds millions Of men
in the trenches and out of the in
there will be as much
work for most of us as we can do.
While this work lasts there is
a chance to save for future time
when work will be harder to get.
Those who find it difficult to ac-
quire the banking habit will find
it easy to learn the postal savings

ADJUSTMENTS
LYRIC.

Written in language that appeals to
everv class of theatre-goer. telling a
story that is familiar, yet most fascinat-
ing in its recital; teaching a wonderful
lesson without being gloomy or preachy,
Experience" George V. Hobart's mod
ern morality play, which was seen for
the first time in Cincinnati at the Lyric
Theatre on Sunday night, promises to
write new and highly commendable
page in the theatrical history of the city.
One recognizes the wonderful human
ity of the play in the adventures of
Youth" who, after taking leave of
Love" and "Home" in the pure and
healthful surroundings of the country,
starts on his way into the great world
with Ambition" as his companion.
Accompanied by Experience" youth"
meets Pleasure" "Intoxication," "Fash-
ion," "Blue Blood" "Style," "Slander,"
Deceit" Wealth" "Frivolity," "Pas-
sion" and other symbolized characters
who gradually lead him on the down
ward path, until he finds himself at the
very edge of the great abyss, with
Crime" beckoning him and Poverty"
threatening him.
At this stage the miracle of a
mothers love" intervenes, brought on by
Experience" accompanying him in the
vicinity of church, where an invisible
singer is heard in the beautiful words
of Lead Kindly Light" He turns from
his follies, hastens to the land of Clean
illness, is welcomed back by Love" and
'Hope," and finds that Ambition" with
whom he started ON his journey, is not
dead, but merely has been slumbering.
There is nothing sordid-nothing
monotonously preachy in the story. The
dialogue is bright, snappy and convinc-
ing; the action is natural and fascinat-
ing; the scenic environment graphic in
the extreme, and the work of the COM
pany intelligent and interesting, bring
ing out the full strength and character
istics of the various elements pictured.
So great and immediate has been the
success of Experience" that it has been
decided to continue the engagement for
second week, starting Sunday next.

TO GREET ENGLISH UNIONISTS.

New York-President Mahon of the
Amalgamated Association of Street and
Electric Railway Employees, and Presi-
dent Woll of the International Photo
Engravers' Union, sailed for England
last Saturday as fraternal delegates
from the American Federation of Labor
to the British Trades Union Congress,
which will convene in Birmingham, this
month.
Messrs. Mahon and Woll were elected
to attend the 1914 convention of the
British Trades Union Congress, but the
meeting was postponed on account of the
war. In 1915 circumstances again pre-
vented the attendance of the American
delegates, who we're reelected to the
San Francisco convention of the A, F.
of l.. to serve as fraternal delegates this
year and extend greetings which have
been continuous since 1894 when John
Burns and David Holmes represented
the English workers at the Denver con-
vention, The first American delegates
to England were Samuel Gompers and
P. J. MCGUIRE, deceased.

DISCOVERS A LABOR "SOLU-
TION."

Montgomery, Ala.-John H. Wallace,
Tr., state game and fish commissioner
has discovered a system whereby strikes
and lockouts will no longer distract this
nation. His plan is simple-appoint an
arbitration board to adjust wages. make
it illegal to strike while the board is re-
viewing the case and depend upon public
opinion to enforce the award.
Mr.. Wallace averred in Labor Day
'"The weight of public opinion would
undoubtedly sustain the board of arbi-
tration. therefore strikes and lockouts
upon the adoption of the recommenda-
ton | have suggested would become a
thing of the past"
This ancient scheme of tving men to
their jobs was foisted on Colorado by
the last Legislature, but at the recent
convention of the state federation of
labor was roundly denounced.
Despite this latest reputation of COM
pulson, men still ignore the verdict of
history and present the system as some
new discovery.

NEW YORK CAR MEN STRIKE

New York.-Because of an attempt by
street railroad managers to destroy the
recently organized Street Car Mems
union, the surface street car system in
this city has been completely tied up the
past week, while transportation on the
numerous elevated lines and on the net
work of subway railroads has been bad
ly crippled. The strike vote was taken
Wednesday, September 6, and affected
the New York Railways company = two
companies with the same officials. Later
the strike spread to other lines and
northward into Westchester county.
The direct cause of the strike was the
attempt of the marlborough, controlling
the elevated and subway lines, to foist
an individual contract on its employees
binding them not to strike for two years
or to take part in any movement having
for its purpose betterment of condi-
tions during this period. Officers of the
company have stated that any violation
OF this agreement would be subject to
discipline" and would also result in
a suit for damages, which would be
brought against the individual employe
by the company. The Street Car Mems
union demanded that the company return
these agreements and cease issuing bull
letins containing the information that
any employe who objected to the agree
ment would be discharged. The com
pany replied that the men could sue
in court as individuals, if they believed
they were WrOnged.
When the strike started President
Shonts of the New York Railways and
lnterborough companies announced that
it was "a fight to the finish" James L.
Quackenbush, general counsel for the
latter company, said: 'If there are
enough bluecoats and brass buttons and
few night sticks-not revolvers-where
they are needed the strike won't last
long,"
But the response by organized labor
surprised Shonts, who later assured the
public that his fight "was not against
unionism."
President Gompers has been in con-
sultation with local trade unionists dur
ing the week discussing means that will
be helpful to the strikers.
During one of the hearings before the
public service commission General Man
ager Frank Hedley, of the marlborough
admitted that the company had broken
its word with employees by refusing tc
submit to arbitration any question that
might arise. For more than half ar
hour the traction official endeavored tc
avoid "a direct answer to the question
Step by step. however, he was forced tc
admit that he had given his word to his
employees that the basis of settlement ot
the recent strike on the New York Rail
ways would be accepted by him and that
that strike settlement included arbitra.
tion provisions.

EMPRESS.

For next week the Empress Theatre
offers show that will be typically SUI
perior. 1t is filled to the very top with
genuine, honest enjoyability, such as
has placed this house where it belongs
among the most successful vaudeville
houses of America. f ~
The program will be headed by six
spectacularly stunning sylphs, who call
themselves the Sextette De Luxe. They
sing sweetly, make merry with melody
on various instruments, dance dashingly
and are seen with background of su-
perb scenery in varied and entertain
ing musical comedy. They are destined
to prove sensation.
Another fine act on the bill will be
the Three Dixie Girls, trio of sweet
voiced damsels, whose picturesque cos
TUNES and varied array of gowns will
undoubtedly create a fashion sensation
among the women.
Minola Hurst and Prince Paulika, also
on the bill, are headliners in laugh
making. They are billed as "the big and
that they will roll their audiences
laughs per minute.
The remainder of the bill is of equal
ly high calibre Manager George F. Fish
having personally supervised their book
ing, in order to give Empress patrons
the very best there is to be had in the
way of good vaudeville. Draper and
Clayton, billed as "the korked kings of
komedy," bear that title by right of con-
quest. Still another comedy element on
the bill is Jack Lamy, "the nut with ar
overcoat" While Dix and Dixie are
jugglers who introduce brains and come
dy in their work
And last, but not least, are the comedy
films which open and close the shows.

MEXICAN CONFERES ARE NOW
IN SESSION.

New London, Conn.-Determined to
solve differences between the United
States and Mexico, and substitute medi-
alton for shot and shell, representatives
of the two countries are holding ses-
sions in this city.
The Mexican representatives have
emphasized the work of rehabilitating
their country, which has been done by
the Carranza administration and the
rapid progress that is being made in re-
establishing order. Proposed reforms in
educational and agricultural lines have
been related in detail by the Mexicans,
who have pointed out that the recogni-
ton of the Carranza government has
greatly assisted the constitutionalists in
their work.
