rest among our people which kills pa
triotism and makes an ordinary citi-
zen turn to the labor union as the
only weapon in sight with which to
secure even Il living wage. We hear
grave suggestions of doctors unions
and as a joke preachers unions. Next
we will have landlords unions, and
then the circle will be complete. In
union there is strength, but not in

MIR. NfERKL'S LETTER.
Vaudeville, La, Sept. 3, 1911!

Vaudeville, La, Sept. 3, 1919.
Editor ST. Tammany Farmer:
1t is deRlorable that the parishwide
school tax has been defeated by the
taxpayers. AS you say in your edi-
torial CT August 80, the main reason
for its defeat was that the people
are getting suspicious and don't trust
their Parish officials with their
money any more, is surely correct,
, and they should not be criticized too
strong ter doing SO.
I am looking over my tax receipts
every year and find more road taxes.
It reads, Road tax, good roads tax,
special road tax" May it not be
possible IN the next few years that
we have school tax, extra school tax,
special school tax? With all our
different road taxes, We have no good
roads, ard we don't know when we
do get good roads, if We get any at
all So ske people expect the same
deal with the school taxes, therefore
the defeat Of it. l am in favor of
good ROADS and good schools, in fact,
of anything that spells for progress
and tends to improvements that will
benefit the people. | have been pay
ing road taxes for ten years in this
parish and the only road | have to
travel on is the road | have built
myself, with my own time and
money. Not one cent has the par
4sh spent. for roads in this part of

the parish where my neglected
neighbors and I are living. I have
eight miles Of road into Vaudeville
under difficulties, but it is today
the only road in the parish where
the automobiles and wagons don't
get stuck. / don't want to boast
about it. | never mention it. |
know / have rendered service to my
felloWman and that is all the salts
faction | care for.
The people are waking up and
they wait to know how their money
is spent, and get suspicious about the
men VINO handle it. | believe it is
good sign
Cattle dipping is a good thing and
should be carried out to a finish,
but peorle have found that it could
have been done for much less money
than it has cost the parish. Every
body tried to get his finger into the
dipping vat pie fund. Somebody
nailed up {. few planks on a vat and
sends in a bill twenty times more
than the work was worth. [ know
one dipping vat has been built and
was only used once, because it was
out of the way. while cattle from
other parts had to be driven eight
and nine miles to vat. All this
was done to favor some cattle own
ers and discriminate against others.
Might It not happen with our schools
that some districts would be favored
and others neglected? Of course
there are other factors that work
against our public schools, they
should be watched carefully. Those
elements work secretly and noise
lessly and people should be careful
who they put on their school board,
they are more dangerous than vast
ing of school funds. They would
disrupt our public school system
altogether. My advice to the people
is to select men at the next election
who they can trust and before TAX
ing office make them sign pledges
to spend public money honestly and
equally without preference, and to
