Senator Sherman so determined as
that there shall be a transformation
OF Center Market so that it will he
come a peoples market, where the
consumer may deal almost directly
with the producer.
He, right now, is Interested in q
suggestion that the Postonice De-

brought to the Center Market by par-
Gel post all sorts Of commodities dl-
rect from the producer, and that
agents OF the PostOffice Department
and OF the District government sbouId
take charge Of the distribution AT
very moderate profits. He would

A Tip TO the BANKS.
Senator Sherman believes that
Washington business men have an
opportunity to impress Cpngressmen
and strangers generally more favor
ably toward the town by insisting
that their employees be more courte-
Gus and helpful. He was told that

BOY SCOUT CAMPAIGN.

The campaign for associate
membership in the National DO,
Scout organization was success
fully conducted in iberia Parish
Jeanerette, under it's local commit
tee, as usual, performed its par
of the task generously. In New
Iberia the Boy Scouts Of Troops
One. Two and Three assumed the
duty Of delivering soliciting let
ters to a number of citizens with
the following result:
Troop No. One secured nine as
sociate members.
Troop No. Two secured thirty
six associate members.
Troop No. Three secured forty
eight associate members. A total
of ninety-three. This was APP
proximately the requirement for
iberia Parish.
In excess of the subscriptions
MS associate members, many con-
tributors generously exceeded the
fee, with the result that there re-
manned Ninety Eight 41-10O
($9S.4l) Dollars for distribution
among the local troops and an ad.
dition special contribution Of Nine
Dollars to Troop No. Two.
There is no movement for the
betterment of the youths which
holds out more promise of prac-
tical results in the up.building of
character. II brings to the aid
Of church and school powerful
means of directing the youthful
mind in healthy, moral and physi-
cal growth. This community will
gain much IL it encourages the
Scouts, not only with sympathy,
but with those moderate means
necessary to equip them with the
necessities for scout life. We
have had occasion to note troops
from other communities going
through with camping outfit,
seeking the camping grounds so
abundantly supplied in this Sec
ton. Who can doubt the bene-
Ats Of these excursions under the
control Of an efficient scout mas
tor giving the boys a practical OK
perience in living according to
the scout laws.
IT ID well, worth the while OF
parents to study the aims and pur-
poses Of the Boy Scout organixa-
tion. The result will be the awak-
ening Of a keen interest in all that
belongs to it.

These conditions should not pre-
vail in a little City like ours, it
does not in smaller communities,
and if our Board Of Trade was a
going concern we would not tole-
rate such nuisances any longer.
There is no doubt an ordinance
covering this daily nuisance, but
the law does not seem to be en-
forced. and it behooves our City
officials to see that the Southern

be made to comply with our ordi-
nances in every respect. | trust
that the Railroad Company will
be notified at once that they have
a certain time in which to clear
the CITY CROSSINGS and that our
City officials will see that they do.

By far the most terrible toll of the Russian winter will be taken in the peasant villages, the home of nine- tenths of Russia'B 1s0,000.000, Oliver NJ. Sayler writes in the Saturday Eve ming Post. The sullen and defiant muzhik, who has planted for himself and only for himself, hasn't taken in- to account the possibility that superior force from the city or from his own or a neighboring village may seize his grain. When the calamity befalls, an endless train of disaster and bloodshed and starvation will follow In It's wake.
 Reprisal on some weaker peasant will be the next step. and from that the flame will spread to Virulent bor- der warfare with whole villages on the trail to plunder the grain bins of others or intrenched to protect their own. In some districts, even before left, this most cruel form Of civil strife had broken out.

RECORD PRICE FOR SPEECH
chauncey Depew Tells of Occasion When a Few Spoken Words Were
 Worth Much Money.

In commenting upon the death of Mrs. Russell Sage, Chauncey NJ. De pew, who knew Mrs. Sage for 40 years and was an intimate associate of her husband for longer period, told how he made a $12OOOO speech at her sug- gestiOn.
 Mir. Depew stated that although MT. Sage accumulated a vast fortune he rarely gave away any money, adding that the reason for thls was the con tidence which he repOsed In the judg- ment of his wife as an able and eX- perlenced philunthrOpist. He said that years ago he received a letter from Mrs. Sage inviting him to make an address at the Emma Willard school, at Troy, \. Y, upon the occasion of the donation by MT. Sage to the school of a large sum of money for use in erecting a building. This was the school of which Mrs. Sage was a grad uate.
 'I replied" said Mir Depew, "that I was so overwhelmed with engage ments to speak that 1t would be im' possible for me to accept the invita- tion. In answer l received by special messenger a note from Mrs. Sage, saying: Russell Is going to give S12O,O0O. He will not give one cent unless you make the speech. This Is Russelrs first excursion Into this field. Don't you think he ought to be eR couraged?'
 My immediate reply was: T will make that speech"
