than use up part of the time this morning
and then have to go. all over the mat
ter again with reference to the resolu-
ton Of the gentleman from Houlton,
Mr. Barnes. To put all these matters
over until Tuesday would seem to me
to be saving time, and Ne could then
go on with the present calendar this

whatever time we use up this morning
will reduce the unfinished business just
so much.
Mr.. DEARTH of Dexter: Mr.. Speak

these matters today or on Tuesday
next. suggest that the. members who
favor taking up the matter next Tues

The SPEAKER: There is no motion.
The suggestion is that the discussion
of the water power matters as outlined

Portland, all be tabled and discussed
next Tuesday; and those who are in
favor Of postponing it and taking 1t
up on Tuesday are asked to rise.
Mr.. HALL of Wilton: Mr.. Speaker.

The SPEAKER: The matter taoieo

Hon. l.. f. Thomas of Bator
Rouge. a member of the State
Board of Affairs was in New he
ria on Saturday for a few hours
Mr.. Thomas had just arrived from
st. MartinviIle where he appeared
before the Police Jury to discuss
taxation as regards the interest
of the State. From what we
learn. it is Mr.. Thomas intention
within a few weeks TO present
himself before our Police Jury
also, so as to make them cognizant
of Just what the State expects in
solar as assessments are con
cerned in this Parish. The Ques-
ton Of taxation is one that we
are all interested and the gen
eral impression prevails thai here
like elsewhere, MANY pieces Of
real estate is escaping taxation.
Once the Parish man is completed
bv Mr.. Walter Y. KemDer. every
piece of real estate VIII bear it
proportion of the taxation - it
should. Once this condition
throughout Louisiana is recGfied
it is more than probable there
will be more than enough revenue
to conduct the affairs Of Louisi-
ana. thereby giving our law MAX
ers an onnort-n!tv to reduce the
millage. Taxation in Louisiana is
becoming hur7e0Somo and the
masses are hopeful that the time
will soon come to Give them re
lief by change in the system
that VIII meon less taxes annual
". There is no doubt the system
of levving taxes and licenses as
prevails in this country is entirely
wrong and often oppressive. and
as Mr.. John 4. White said in his
lecture at st. Perchman'S Hall
last Monday evening: "Just like
taxes on dogs cause thor EXTERN
nation, so does a tax on indus
try tend to make it unprofit-
able to engage in commercial
pursuits that give employment to
the people Of orr commonwealth.
While Mr.. White decreased from
his subject "Single Tax during
his discourse to a great extent,
still he made many converts to
the cause which he so ably rep
resents and we hone to see the
time come when the Single Tax

put it into practice in Louisiana

some ninety steers that were
raised on the place will be in the
lot. Cost of raising swine from
birth TO weaving will also be in
ciuded in the statistics given out
to the public on visitors day, as
well as swine grazing expert
ments. The program as a whole
will be interesting and instruc-

should be present on this occa-
sion. The Farm was established
for the purpose Of impartlng
knowledge to those who are de-
sirous of learning to do things in

GOLD 3f ALL LEADING DRUGGISTS

An interesting meeting of
the Chamber of Commerce was
held last Thursday night with
the full membership Of the Board
present. +. II. But1inton who is
acting as secretary gratultousIy
to the Board, reported several
matters that is Of much interest
to our citizens. One of the mat
ters Of urgent importance was
the building Of a gravel road to
the oil fields and committee of
four was appointed to consult
with the Police Jury Just as soon
= as they can get the members of
that important official body to-
gether. No better movement
could have been started as this
road is in such bad condition that
4 much trade that comes to us now
will remain on the fields as sew
eral business houses will soon be
erected in that vicinity and with
roads in an impossible condition
the business that belongs to New
Iberia will be lost to our bust
ness men unless something be
done at once. While the road
that leads to Olivier is in fine
shape, Oh the other hand the little
stretch of two and a half miles
from the Bridge at Olivier on the
west bank needs immediate at
tention. While the road commit
tee Of the Charber of Commerce
is on this work they will advo-
cate gravel roads throughout the
Sixth Ward as soon as it can be
realized Another matter Of
much Importance that will be
presented to the Police Jury will
be a rec consideration Of the dip
ping Of cattle. 1t seems this i'm
portant work is about to 90 by
the wayside, owing to lack of
funds. The SECRETARY of the
Chamber of Commerce was en-
powered with full authority to
provide means Of entertainment
for an influx Of visitors to New
iberia during April after the
close of the convention of Fed
Grated Women's Clubs which will
take place at the Crescent City.
Special excursions will be run to
the Teche out of New Orleans
and it is the intention to get the
delegates to spend a couple Of
days in New Iberia and this Vi
cinitv. Mr.. John r. Taylor,
member Of the board of directors
was given full authority to ex-
tend an invitation for a meeting
here of the State Pharmaceutical
Board during 1918. Several 9TH
err matters of Importance to our

American people have a very high

men, and have been specially tickled
by story Colonel Cody used to tell.
He said that some years ago an Eng
lishman who had never been in the
west before was his guest. They were
riding through Rocky mountain cam
yon one day. when suddenly a tre-
mendous gust of wind swept down
upon them and actually carried the
Englishman clean off the wagon seat.
After he had been picked up, he combed
the sand and gravel out Of his whis-
kers and said:
