ELECTION RETURNS.

With absentees on account Of
war, with Influenza and farm &C
tivities claiming the attention o!
people, the vote Of last Tuesday i
election was possibly the lightiest
ever recorded in Iberia Parish. a
scant twenty-five per cent Of the
qualified voters having particl-
pated. So little was the interest
that in Patoutyille the poles were
not opened at all, while in the
third precinct of the New Iberia
Ward, it was noon before any one
could be secured who would con-
sent to serve as Commissioners
and Clerk Of Election. Had it
not been for the entrance Of Mr..
Il. NJ. Boutte. at the last moment,
as an Independent candidate
against Mr.. Eugene Guillot for
member Of the School Board, it is
doubtful that any one would have
voted at this poll. The result, of
course, was the election of all
nominees Of the Democratic Party.
In the matter Of Constitutional
Amendments. although all re-
ceived a favorable majority, scant
attention was paid to any except
No. IL, the (Woman's Suffrage),
upon which almost every voter ex-
pressed his opinion. resulting in
the Amendment being carried by
a vote of $40 for, to 215 against,
a majority Of % in favor Of the
ladies. We publish in another
column the returns as compiled by |
the Board Of Supervisors giving
full details of the election.

ulation. All patients unfit for
| any more service in the army are
| sent here. We give them the
"once over' and send them home
by conveys. 1t is the busiest hos
pital in France. My department
alone handles two or three train
loads weekly, and very long trains
at that. There are the bone and
joint injuries, fractures of every
bone in the body. To me it IS
wonderful, and also wonderful to
note the amount of individual care
given those poor fellows. l think
the most cheerful bunch is the
amputes," as we generally refer
to them as the stump eases. Here
we find time to provide them with
temporary artificial leg, a very
comfortable one too. Every
morning these fellows are given
an hours exercise. Lieutenant
Tradd Of Boston has charge Of the
classes. 1t is remarkable how
quickly those unfortunates re.
gain their equilibrium. The
patient with the double leg ampu-
tation soon learns how to walk
with his cane and no other sup
port. And so it is with the other
departments, they are as busy.
We do great deal Of splinting.
practically every bone fractured
is well examined and put in goor
condition for transfer to the U. S.
This is daily, the same amount Of
work is done on Sunday, and we
are up and about in the wards un-
til eleven o'clock p. m. and oc-

of much recreation. There are

LETTER FROM DR.. H. J.
DAUTERIVE.

| OcIOuer ON, 1910.
My dear daddy: To-day, the
eve Of the anniversary Of my de-
parture for foreign service,
thought of writing you on this oc
casion. The year has been long
one and still very short. When
look back to the 9th Of October
last year. it reminds me Of one
having left his country to visit
another world. And here it is
the same, every one doing his
work, making living and enjoy
ing life. Having been put on the
strict military dicipline of the Of
ficer, / find that ! live as before,
the undisturbed life of the ci-
william and in country like ours.
Judging from the above I find
that we all become adapted to our
surroundings. One year spent in
the British Isle and in France
gives me a fair understanding Of
what the rest Of this continent is.
I have enjoyed every hour of
pleasure and every hour of work
since here. This morning I went
to st. Nazaire. a port of much
Importance to the A. q. F. That
visit alone gives you an idea Of
the yastness Of this undertaking.
The quick and rapid mind of the
American, the plans and ideas ex-
ecuted by our government are
wonderf1l and modern. And Won
readily recognize the fact every
where an France. With this you
see. our superior methods of do.
ing everything. The American is |
far ahead.
Ny few months in Scotland |
were very interesting. I don I |
think you will ever meet with
4 more courteous and pleasant q
race than the Scotch. They are
traditional and France is somc-
what Of the same aspect. "What |
1reat-Rrandfather made a living
with isr9ood enough for me-" And
You find this idea prevailing in |
both countries. In the Highlands |
Of Scotland. where the country is |
very picturesque, You come across |
The farmer Of whom Samuel
Johnson refers often to. in his
Journey to the Hebrides (Island. |
Those people use today the same
Implements to pillow their soil. |
Their peculiarities are numerous.
They find no occasion t.. hurry as
he Americans do. No matter
how busy in the operating room
n Scotland), at eleven o'clock
everybody gets his cup Of hot
ga and buttered bread. This is
llso true in the afternoon. While
here I acquired some lazy habits,
md always turn in the afternoon
or ours golf game. But when II
,ecan1e attached to my regular
)rthepedic unit. the tune was diff
erent. The difference daddy was
striking. and eer since then II

on the jump to keep up with them.
Junian is having hard time try
ing to enlist. Tell him not to
worry, as | will do his share and
mine too. You ask about the
weather, it is beginning to get
cold, but not enough to feel it
much. DO not worry about us,
we will be well taken care Of as
we have plenty of good warm
clothing and good gloves and
boots for rainy weather and we

the good luck to see what was
left Of it. it was sure some tough
nut to crack. But the English,
Australians and Americans did
the trick and done it well. We
have plenty Of work, as we have
to keep the lines up and it takes
plenty Of lines to keep the army
going and they must be kept in
