During the conferences several
kilograms were received by Mr..
Edward Estorgc. president of the
Chamber Of Commerce and read to
the members which had splendid
effect on some who had stood out
from the first in opposition to the
work. After vote was taken to
continue dipping there were only
two who voted nay, DR.. A. G.. Me
Gowen Of Jeanerette and Numa
Miguel Of the Seventh Ward. all
of the remaining members agreed
that they would vote for the !
measure on Friday when the Jury !
would be called together for the
purpose Of adopting the ordinance.
The proposed changes will ne
cessitate a great outlay on the
party OF the Police Jury to finish
up the tick eradication, but the
real stock owners say that moth
ing should be spared to continue
the work that is so near finished.
Had the members of the Jury
stood out against the dipping it
would have cost iberia the Model
Farm and caused further reduc-
ton in land values throughout
the Parish. It would have been
impossible to get immigration into i
iberia if we had taken such a|'
backward step. as was proposed
by some who had not studied the =
seriousness of the situation and =
iberia would have been set back =
twenty years. There is no doubt "
many Of the cattle owners had
'ome cause for. complaint as :his .
etter published before this para .

'olice Jury has wisely listened to i"
heir complaints there should be :

One suggestion of theirs that
I'LL not meet the wishes of the
eople is the clause that calls for
n election to take a vote on the &C
e-erection Of fences throughout Ia
ne Parish. This is an absurdity us
nd will undoubtedly be defeated a
