COMMUNICATION
st. Landry Clarion,

st. Landry CLARION,
Opelousas,
SO many complaints have reached
us as to the condition of the public
road along the Atchafalaya River,
and having been appointed to ac-
cept this road after being worked
by MFR. w. r. Smith, we feel that
we owe a duty to the residents OF
this section to explain conditions
and make our position clear.
When Mr.. Brown, the Police Ju-
ror from the Fourth Ward made his
tour OF inspection of this road we
accepted with reluctance his ap-
pointment as a committee to ac-
cept this road and before even ac-
depting we were were given to I'M
derstand in positive language that
the positive stipulation Of the con-
tract was that the river road was to
be a good road when completed and
we were directed not to accept same
Until entirely satisfactory.
On December the eleventh we
wrote to Mr.. Brown calling his at
tention to the manner in which the
road was beig warked; to this let
ter no attention at all was given.
The work Of making the road i'm
passable was continued, the auto
mobiles were stored away, and even
teams had difficulty in travelling
The road.
Our interest and the duty we felt
we owed to all users Of the publci
road prompted solely our protests.
We were ignored and settlements
were made for the work. The road
Isl still bad and its present condi-
ton will never be accepted by us.
However as no affection was paid us
either as To our acceptance o. our
condemnation there remains only
one honorable course to pursue
which necessarily ends with our
resignation.

of Eunice, Candidate FOR Represnrl-
tatiya ii the STATE Legislature from
/ st. Landry.
In announcing his eslrIiGacy for
the office of representative in she
state legislature from the parish ct
st. Landry, S A. Gournay can
modestly point with pride to his
record as a man, as a citizen and as
a member Of the police jury for the
past four years.
Mr.. Gournay is not a native OF
this parish but has been a resident
of it SO long that he almost be-
lieves at times fiat he is a native,
for he has become thoroughly iden-
titled with the parish and its inter
ests and if elected to the legislature
will work for ~thekentire people who
accord him the honor Of eiecting
him.
Mr.. Gournay landed in the west
ern portion of this parish years ago
and all he had in this world in the
shape of wealth was his brawny
strength and indomitable courage
and a determination to heW a place
in this world for self and family.
BY a close attention to business and
by conserving everything which
might assist him he accumulated
quite a modest portion OF this
worlds wealth and considering his
youthfulness his feat is WONDERFUL
indeed. Of course Mr.. Gournay Is
moi, a wealthy man in the sense that
wealth is taken, but ne has accom-
nlished wonders considering the
uncertainties presented to him ana
he deserves credit for his feat.
But riches-if you can call him
rich-has never turned his head or
placed him in the class OF the
would-be higaabroWs for he ls stu
one the people, has an aboundine
respeet for the poor and struggilhs
man. for he has been through many
life battle himself and knows fuil
well how it feels to struggle agains
adversely and poverty, and ne feels
and his friends know that If he is
eIecfod to the legislature he will,
with his great stock Of experier
know how to work for the uplift OF
SO poor.
He is not a college graduate
any means, neither does he pretend
TO be, but the great experience
learned when he had his nose turn
ed to the rough side of life's grind
stone will serve him in good stead
in legislative halls and If the good
neonle of ST. Tandrv lect him on
the o5th he will always endeavor to
we'll and faithfully uphold the
trust imposed in him.

THE DEVILS VISIT.

Paid a visit to eaftn
To hunt up some folks
| Not heard from since birth;
His clothes we're most stylish
And his manner serene;
AS he walked through the streets
His joy was supreme
Then he said to himself
4Ill not cause them a fright;
I'll try to have patience
! And wait till tonight
And when night had fallen
This old prince Of sin
Walked up to a barroom
And nimbly stepped in.
What will you have sir?'
The barkeeper said
Had he knew who stood there,
/ He'd have fallen down dead
But the Devil was thirsty
And he spoke without fear
Serve me some whiskey,
Then serve me some beer"
Then the door was thrown open
And in from the street
Came a bunch of ward bosses
All anxious to treat
! When the drinks had been served
All began loudly TO talk;
One man grew excited
And swallowed the cork.
Then they spoke of prize lighting
Then spoke of race track;
Every man in the bunch
Would see racing come back
But the Devil was silent,
Was fearful to speak
For this was the bunch
He had come here to seek.
They spoke of friend Parker
They spoke of IT. b."
But for Pleasant each a Barker
The Devil could see.
They spoke of the Ballot
And the day when they'd vote,
Then the Devil grew angry
For this got his goat.
Then he jumped from his chair
And spoke long and loud
And gave Parker advice
To the men in the crowd
Now the Devil is cunning
And full of deceit;
He often tells lies
And most times will cheat.
Then he said to these men
Are you all in one boat?
Will you all stand together
And cast the same vote?
! am for Barrett"
The Devil did cry;
The recording angel near
Knew il was a lie.
The Devil grew silent
Not a word would he say
For he stood for Parker
And for votes he would pay;
But he found that this bunch
We're all Pleasant men;
Not a ghost Of a chance
To get votes from them.
For he had come here
The truth T am bound for to tell
To get votes for Parker
Whose chances, like ia SNOWFALL il
hell
Are rapidly melting.
For after the primary
The party ranks will close in
And Barrett and Pleasant
Will fight the old Prince of Sin
And relegate his Lieutenant Parker
Horse foot and dragon
To realms hotter and darker
Than the eclipse OF the moon.
And that this is not an unmixed
evil
IS the sincere belief Of the printers
devil.
