GOOD ROADS COMMISSION.

The Good Roads Commission reports
the maintenance work on the Lee
Road completed, the road having
been graded, shaped up in good con-
dition and the culverts repaired.
Due to the fact that the sawmills
have been unable to supply the nee
essary lumber for repair work, the
bridges and culverts in several parts
of the parish have not been complet-
ed as was intended, but it is hoped
that the work will soon be rounded
out.
Considerable time has been devot-
ed Of late to the working up Of Post
Roads over certain sections OF the
principal roads, which work is in
connection with the Federal aid ap-
plications. This work Is being
handled through the cooperation Of
the various postof1ces which have
been furnished with the necessary
forms to fill out, and the application
for Federal aid on about 115 miles
of road will be made Just as soon as
these forms are filled out and re-
turned.

STUMP REMOV-
ING DEMON
STRATED
GsaE1@

A demonstration by the Moore
Rotary Stump Cutter Co., OF what
their land-clearing machine will do
last Wednesday. This machine is
intended not only to clear land, but
through the operation of an immense
caterpillar tractor the shaving from
the stump are blown through a pipe
into a large bin from which it Ia
loaded into wagons ready for use as
fuel or in the manufacture of pine
products. 1t is anticipated that
when contracts for clearing land are
entered into, the Mackie -Pino Pro-
ducts Company would find use for
these shavings.
Quite a number Of citizens from
New Orleans and St. Tammany par
ish attended the demonstration, the
value of machine of this character
in clearing the stump lands Of this
parish and making them ready for
the plow and cultivation being fully
appreciated.
The big, powerful tractor moved
from stump to stump with the ease
and precision OF an ordinary motor
car, tho big bit Seing set aud the
operation Of cutting gone through in
from two to four minutes, according
to the size Of the stump. The dem
onstraion proved beyond q doubt
that the machien can perform the
work claimed for it. There may be
some slight addition to the depth Of
~ T.
any material alteration of the cut
ting bit.

INTRODUCING MIR. REILLEY.

Covington had two visitors the
past week that might have attracted
the attention of the Department Of
Justice IN war times. An introduce
ton to them was followed by the
preservation of card bearing the
following imprint: Mat Riggs, P.
NJ. D. T., Tom Chesterman, B. 0. G..
w. Rigg & Chesterman, introduce
ing the life of Kelley" AS a good
many people were not familiar with
the life of Kelley, there was gen.
eral scattering when the card was
handed out, because nobody wanted
to buy the Life of Reiley," and
book agents are not very welcome as
an addition to the high cost Of liV-
ing. Eut Rigg & Chesterman pur-
sued their genial way, proceeded to
shove down an awful amount of food,
kept within the limit of 2.75 as 1t is
generally understood, and had an all
round good time. 1t turned out that
Mr.. Relley was a poet whose chief
pleasure was writing verse and hav-
ing q Good time. The partners who
were emulating him are in the
optical business in New Orleans, and
came to Covington to avoid the
strenuousness of business and have a
good time They say CovingtOn is
the greatest little town on earth and
might have done Mr.. Reilly proud to
be born here. Mr.. Rigg is one of the
great amateur boxers and athletes,
having had numerous contests with
professionals of repute. He is also
a champion swimmer.

Some unforeseen disturbance in its

STEALING CHICKENS AGAIN.

Fron:e Willis (colored) is again in
the tolls of the law, charged with
chicken stealing. John Piplac had
IS fine chickens. They were fight
ers and highly valued. Fronie evil
IDENTIFY did not consider this any bar
to their eating quality. Fourteen Of
them were found in her possession.
She was arrested. Gilbert Baulk-
man (colored) was also taken in
charge in connection with the case,
it being suspieioned that he was seen
around he place before the chickens
were stolen.
Fronie lives on the Military Road
about three miles out. She was tried
on the same charge several years
ago, when chicken stealing became
so annoying that a general crusade
was made and quite a number were
tried and punished.

ITEMS OF INTEREST AT JAHNCKE
SHIPYARDS IN MADISONVILLE
By D. H. Vinet.

The shipyard closed September 80,
according to announcement Of Com
modore Ernest Lee Jahncke in last
Saturdays issue. They still have a
small force of laborers on hand get
ting together odds and ends.
While most of the workmen who
earned big wages put aside quite a
bit for rainy day, good many
gave way to extravaganza, and have
been gobbled up by the profiteers.
wonder how the latter class, who
have enjoyed champagne wages, will
adjust themselves to normal times
to beer wages?
The shop-girl has as much right to
pay $500 for pair OF shoea as her
well-to-do sister, but is there not
entire economic system that compels
something radically wrong with our
or encourages such reckless extrava-
gance? There is more reason in a
lumber-jack paying $500 for a neck
tie than there was in the Railroad
Administration of the government
paying u officials something like
$1,500.000 for one years service.
If the government. is SO absorbed in
its efforts to furnish the necessaries
Of life to the peoples of Europe, to
the extent of depicting the miscel-
laneous necessaries OF our own peo-
pie, and no time to look after its
own people, and a most natural con-
sequence, such procedure has given
birth to the profiteer and spendthrift.
We are living in a FOOLS paradise, in
a riotous and extravagant age, and
the rule of reason will not return
again until the forces Of moderation,
poignancy of purpose and common
sense is reflected from the govern
ment a. Washington. / am afraid
that the splendid patriotism that
won the war Is on the decline and
that the forces of commercial1sm
plutocracy and autocracy are clan
destineiy marshalling their cohorts
to defeat the democratization of our
industrial supremacy.
To avert this threatened disaster
GUS condition, our minds and hears
should revert at once to the halycon,
simple, good old American days of
jackson and Lincoln. We want to
rub out some OF this camouflage Of
the present day-arti6cial life-and
return to the conditions Of our past
life that has made our beloved
America the envy of the world. Put
those laws in operation which have
been forgotten or ignored, enforce
them rigidly and drastically. II new
laws are needed to eliminate specu-
lation while wage-earners are going
underfed and underclothed, they
should be provided. We have g
right to expect our government will
be equal to the emergency, because
her past history in meeting success
fully every crisis justifies our conf
dence. Let us all put our shoulder
to the wheel, cut out agitation, dis
courage agitators and quit living be-
yond our meane.
