Governor Would Wipe Out
Militia For COnstabulary.

VOVeFnOf tloaSanC would 90
away with the Louisiana National
Guard and have a state constabul.
ary in its place. He considers
the old militia organization un.
wieldy and ineffective and thinks
of paid guardians of the peace,
probably organized upon the
Pennsylvania and Nevada system
could serve the interests of Louis
lana better.
The governor has just return
ed from Washington, Annapolis
and New York and spent New
Years Day at the Cosmopolitan
Hotel. He said all the states that
have adopted the constabulary
system during the war period are
in favor of it's retention. He
thinks the Boatner home guard
law might serve the purpose fer
creating such body here.
Although members of the
Louisiana National Guard have
reDdered splendid service in more
than one war, the organization
would several times has been
handicapped seriously through
its association with politics, a
notable case in point being the
long series of chickering's dating
from the Gardiner and Crane i'm
broglio in 1909 and ending with
the resignation of practically
every officer of the Second lnfan-
try Regiment and the mastering
out Of that unit.

the Southern Land Congress at

"that we would let the govern
ment name its own price for the
land it wanted in Louisiana.
This statement was based on
assurances that | have received
that large land owners were will
ing for the government to fix the
price.
"Now, it would be most unfair
to have the prices of land ad-
vanced. Not only the land own
ers themselves but the state
would suffer from such a short
sighted policy. | am opposed to
such a profiteering or speculative
scheme and it should not he per.

The governor said he had not

Quail Shooting Fine

they are reserving their game privil-
eyes for friends.
The open territory is exceedingly
limited now and the area is being re-
duced each year. One reason for this
is the demand upon the part of men
of wealth for good bird territory.
Several game privileges in this county
have been bought outright during the
past few years and only recently other
privileges were figured on. With the
demand for game. with the prosper
Gus times, and with the ability of
sportsmen to round up good quail
territory it will be only matter Of
time before all of the available quail
grounds of this couaty will be posted
or the hunting privileges sold.

Lovers of the field and the gun are
rejoicing in the fine sport offered in
quail shooting this fall. Quail are
plentiful and they were never larger
or fatter.
The high cost Of living has affected
the sport like everything else. Be
fore the war nitro shells cost 65 cents
a box. Now they cost just $1.25
Then again bird dogs, like the cost
of living, have gone up also. Before
the late unpleasantness a fairly good
dog could be bought for $500, but
now hundred dollars is the average
price for a bird dog. Then another
thing is embarrassing the sport. 1t
used to be the custom to go hunting
and hunt over miles and miles of
territory without an objection. Now
nearly all of the lands are posted and
if farmers are not hunters themselves

New County Law and Officers

The first Monday in January is
going to be a right busy time about
the Court House. The new officers
elected by the people at the election
in November will take the oaths of of
flee and not only will they be install
ed, but new system for the admin
istration of county affairs goes into
effect, entailing endless change in
our old systems, new laws to be gov
erned by, endless interpretations by
executive officers charged with the
enforcement of the law, the institu-
tion of an entirely new system of
records, books and numerous other
changes. 1t might be well to refer
to the officers elect and to dismiss
this feature from the discussion in
this article. Mr.. C. w. West will be
the new sheriff and Mr. Homer Kill
patrick, an official we'll qualified for
the position by years of faithful and
Satisfactorily SSiNlIc, VIII NC hiS bSp-
uty. Mr.. John Richards will be the
new Chancery Clerk and Mr. H. l.,
Bailey will be the deputy, which
guarantees that the opening days of
his admini.ration will be as smooth
and easy sailing as it is possible for
the new official to encounter. Mr..
j. T. Stephenson will be the Circuit
Clerk for another four years; Mr.. B.
G. Hull will be the assessor; Mr.. Sid
Gardner the treasurer and Mr.. Stan
ley will continue to act as super
in endent.
Under the new law the sheriff and
chancery clerk and the circuit clerk
are all placed on a salary basis, that
is. they get the maximum allowed
them by law, "if their offices earn
it."
The salary of the sheriff is placed
at $3500; that of the chancery clerk
is $4,000; circuit clerk, $4,000; as
SCISSOR $2250; treasurer $500 a
month; superintendent of education,
$500. The office of assessor, sup
erintendent of education and treas
urer are all upon a fixed salary basis
The Columbus dispatch. (Columbus, Miss.) 19??-1922, 1919-12-14

but the offices of chancery clerk,
sheriff and circuit clerk are upon the
fee basis. There is no doubt that the
sheriff's office will pay the stated
salary without any trouble from the
fees but the other officials are won
dering if their perquisites will pay
their monthly stipend and they will
not know until the fees begin to
come in.
But here is another important fea-
ture of the new law. These officials
are charged with the fees accruing
against their offices and they have
to turn them into the treasury and
the only way they can show a clean
slate is for the fees TO be collected
as the transactions occur. An at
torney will no longer walk in ard
file suit without making bond for
the costs. The merchant who told
the chancery clerk to charge the fee
for recording his trust deed will have
to pay when the deed is left for re-
cord and the same way with every
other instrument. In other words
these Of. hls must keep a daily
cash book showing every transac-
ton and the fee charged and collect
ed for same That is going to be
quite an innovation in cur county
methods. When the circuit clerk
hands the sheriff a paper, to serve
he must have the money in hand
for the sheriff will have to collecs
the fee from that official ard GER
tainly he cannot pay the same unless
it has been paid him. In addition to
all this new system of bool-kecp-
ing will have to be installed and
many new records used.
The new law is already receiving
the attention of the new law makers
and certain Inconsistencies of it are
being worked out. So at the Janu-
airy session of the legislature the new
law will come UP for amendments
and improvements where its working
features are unjust.

GLASS Of SALTS If
YOUR KIDNEYS HURT
Eat less meat if you feel Backachy or
have Bladder trouble-Salts
fine for Kidneya

Meat forms uric acid which excites
and overworks the kidneys in their efforts
to filter it from the system. Regular eat
ers of meat must flush the kidneys occa-
sionally. You must relieve them like you
relieve your bowels; removing all the
acids, waste and poison, else you feel a
dull misery in the kidney region, sharp
pains in the back or sick headache, diz-
ziness- your stomach sours, tongue is
coated and when the weather is bad you
have rheumatic twinges. The urine is
cloudy, full of sediment; the channels
often get irritated, obliging you to get
up two or three times during the night.
To neutralize these irritating acids
and flush off the body's urinous waste
get about four ounces of Jad Salts
from any pharmacy; take a table
spoonful in glass of water before break
fast for a few days and your kidneys will
then act fine and bladder disorders dis
appear. This famous salts is made from
the acid of grapes and lemon juice, COM
bined with ithia, and has been used for
generations to clean and stimulate slug
gish kidneys and stop bladder irritation.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; harmless and
makes a delightful efervescent lithia-
water drink which millions of men and
women take now and then, thus avoiding
serious kidney and bladder diseases
