REPORT OF GRAND JURY.
To the Judge Of the Nineteenth
Judicial District Court, in and
for the Parish Of Iberia. State

To the Judge OF the Nineteenth
Judicial District Court, in and
for the Parish of Iberia, State
Of Louisiana
We, the Grand Jurors, empanel-
led and sworn in and for the Par
ish of Iberia. State of Louisiana.
beg leave to make this our final
report, as follows:
We have examined all the COM
plants presented to us, and have
found thirty-one true bills and
thirty-two no true bills.
We find that the citizens of the
Parish Of Iberia, are law-abidinl,
and only few infractions Of the
law have been called to our notice.
The Grand Jury finds that the
people Of the Parish of Iberia are
not opposed to the dipping Of cat
tie, but they are opposed to the
circumstances surrounding the
dipping of cattle in the Parish,
we find that in many instances
sufficient water has not been put
in the dipping watts, to permit the
safe dipping of stock, we also &nd
that the water in the dipping vats
should be changed occasionally,
or that the dirt accommodating
therein be removed from the
watts. we also find that cattle in
spectors appointed by the Police
Jury do not remain at the dipping
watts all day, this should be rem
edied.
The Grand Jury finds that the
present Court House building is in
urgent need Of repairs and rem
ovation, the building is kept as
clean as it can possibly be kept
taking in consideration the condi-
ton Of the building. The Jail is
kept clean. and the prisoners con-
fined therein are well cared for.
The Grand Jury would recon-
mend that Police Jury repair the
public roads and bridges. within
the limits of their funds available.
The Grand Jury desires to take
this opportunity to thank the Of
ficers Of the Court for their at
tention to the Grand Jurors, and
especially desire to express their
thanks to SEVERN viator for his
services rendered to the Grand
Jury.
Respectfully.

MAN CRUELTIES.

Washington, July 11.-State-
ments Of German cruelties attri-
buted by q st. Louis newspaper to
an unnamed sergaent Of the Amer
ican expeditionary forces sent to
the United States to assist in the
third liberty loan. are denied BY
General Pershing in q cablegraln
made public by the war depart
ment. General Pershing recon-
mended that If the sergeant was
quoted correctly he be returned
Immediately to France for active
duty.
The statements attributed to the
sergeant were quoted in General
Pershing 3 csblegram as follows:
THE Germans give poisoned
candy to the children to eat and
hand grenades for them to play
with. They show glee at the
children's dying writings and
laugh aloud when the grenades ex-
plode. | saw one American boy
about II years old. who had been
captured by the Germans come
back to our trenches. He had
cotton in and about his ears. Il
asked some one what the cotton
was for.
" The Germans cut Of his ears
and sent him back to tell us they
want to fight men, was the answ-
y. They feed Americans tuber-
sulosis germs.
There is no foundation what
sver for such statements based
u any experience we have had,

LOOKING AHEAD.

In the minds Of the citisens Of de-
mocracy the idea that service IL due
to the government from every one
must be flrmly implanted or the en-
franchised cease to be representative
Of such q government.
The selective draft answers the pur-
pose Of this service. from a military
standpoint, during the war we are at
present engaged In, but largely be-
cause Of the fact that we have time to
prepare while our allies combat the
enemy. We must look to the future
and the possibilities Of war declared
upon Us when We will have no ally.
Should this occur selective conscrip-
ton would be of no avail. Accepting
the fact that the citizen Of democ-
racy owes his service to the govern
msnt, IL 1t not logical that we should
organize this service, which shall be
trained and equipped for an emergen-
cy and able to act Immediately as q

at the FIRST opportune moment.
The speeding up of our plans to win

fsred with, and future policies must
be held in check that they may not In

The show window of the Pfister
iewelry establishment on Main
Street has attracted considerable
interest within the past ten days,
owing to the display of war relics
collected in the battle fields OF
France by Corporal Clarence j.
Louviere, an iberia boy, a son OF
our citizen Mr.. A. j. Lou
Were. Among the articles is a
vase made from one of the famous
French "75" shells. It was made
by one Of the French soldiers and
is a beautiful ornament and war
relic. A collection OF fragments
Of shells exploded from a Ger
man cannon. A piece Of shrapnel
case with number of steel shrap-
mel balls. Another is a steel ar
row used by the German aviators
to drop on soldiers whenever pos
sible for them to do SO from so
great an elevation. These arrows
when dropped from SO great a
height travel at such a terrific
rate when they strike the earth
are capable Of penetrating a steel
helmet. Another of the gems
from the field was a beautiful
paper cutter made by an expert
from a piece of German exploded
shell. Corporal Louviere is 9
