EMPHATIC PROTEST
AGAINST BUILDING .
OF POULTRY HOUSE
PROPERTY OWNERS IN AND
ABOUT FIFTH STREET SIGN
PETITION. 1
BUSINESS IS VERY OFFENSIVE
Declare That Odors From Carcasses
OF Chickens Almost Unbearabie at
Times--6oard of Aldermen to Act
Soon.

Residents and property owners In
and about the vicinity of the proposed
poultry house of Louis Barker to be
erected on Fifth street, are up in arms
against the building in contemplation.
They have filed an emphatic protest
with the board of mayor and aldermen
against the granting of permit for
the construction of the building. In
view of the protest, Recorder Erwin
will not issue permit until after ac'
ton has been taken by the board.
The protest follows:
ITO the Board of Mayor and Aldermen
and the Recorder of the City Of
Columbia:
I'VE, the undersigned residents, of
the city of Columbia, having noticed
that in yesterdays Daily Herald, that
Louis Barker intends at an early day
to begin to rebuild the poultry house,
| on Fifth street, which was burned a
few days ago, for the purpose of hav-
ing some person carry on the poultry
business there again, and we take this
means of protesting against your issu
ing to Louis Barker or any other per-
son, company or corporation permit
to build a poultry house at that place.
The location of this property is in the
midst of thickly populated portion of
Columbia, and the manner in which
the poultry business has been carried
on there, and will be carried on in
the future, if permitted to be re-opened
there, is a common nuisance, and
should not be permitted to exist, at
that place. It is not only menace to
the health of the citizens living in a
large radius around the same, but it
would damage, as it has done hereto
fore very greatly, the value of proper
ty of the citizens in that locality.
Heretofore dead fowls have been al
lowed to accumulate on the premises,
sometimes, an attempt would be made
to burn their carcasses, and the stencil
which would arise from these carcassesl
that were burned, and those that were
not burned, was so offensive, as to be
almost unbearable at times. We in
sist that this is such a nisance, that |
the city should not tolerate the same, |
and should not issue permit, to re-
build the same, and we earnestly in-
sist that you will not issue a permit
to any person, to rebuild poultry
house at that place.

GRETNA FOR S125,500

The 15-year Jackson avenue-Gret-
ma ferry franchise was sold at pub
lie auction Monday to Joseph A.
BissO for $125,500.
The sale attracted unusual atten-
ton and developed the most animal
ed bidding recorded in the City Hall
in years. II was conducted by Com
missioner T.. J. Glenny. Department
OF Public Utilities, in the presence
OF other local officials and represen-
tatives of the city of Gretna and the
parish of Jefferson.
Captain A. NJ. Halliday. head of
the Union Ferry Company, led the
opposition TO the Bisso forces, and
remained in the contest until Cap
tain William A. Bisso. representing
his brother, reached the high mark
The Halliday interests held the fran
chise many years before.
The initial bid was $4,000. the
minimum provided in the ordinance
authorizing the sale of the fran
tain Bisso. Captain Halliday was
conservative in raising his bids.
ranging between $50 and $500.
while Captain Bisso dealt in three
figures, at one time running from
$4,000 to SIS, then again from
SIS, 100 to 100000.
When 100000 was bid by Cap
tain BissO. the spectators gave a soft
whistle and mumbling went around
the room. Finally when s125.5OO
was bid by Captain Bisso Captain
Halliday threw up his hands and
said his competitors could have the
franchise if they thought they could
make money at the game
The S125,500 will be divided
equally between the city of New Or

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.

My dear DR. kraft:-You have al
ways stood for progress so | am going
to ask you to think up some method
that will compel the Southern I'm
prOvement Ferry Co, To give us a de-
cent ferry house on the other side of
the river. Every working woman who
is going to be compelled to undergo
the Inconvenience OF last winter will
owe you an everlasting debt of graft
tude if you will only take up this mat
ter.
Respectfully.
T. V. Johnson.
Note:-The Algiers people will have
to put up with the short comings OF
the ferry company for the next few
years as their franchise will expire
then. We can not expect any i'm
provements until the people demand
ii either through city ownership or by
the Algiers people operating it for
themselves.
The Algiers people will never again
submit to the sale of this franchise
which cost us more than a quarter
million dollars, with an added tax Of
more than $S5.000.00 a year.
The Algiers people pay annually
about sS5, 10000 more for ferriage than
we pay all together for taxes.
