STREET IMPROVEMENTS.

The City authorities closed con-
tracts this week for the paving
with asphaltic concrete ON Iberia
Street from Main to the end of the
corporate limits, in accordance
with the wishes Of majority of
the property holders on that
thoroughfare. This will greatly
improve the value of Iberia Street,
both from a residential as well as
commercial standpoint. The con-
tract was also awarded for paw
ing Duperier Avenue with the
same kind of material from Bridge
Street to the Girard property, in
elusive. The remainder will be
finished with gravel in accordance
to the desires of the property
holders along that Avenue who
have large frontages. From what
we are able tn learn. Center from
Washington Avenue will be grav-
eled out of consideration of the
wishes of the residents. 1t has
not yet been fully decided just
what kind of material will be used
from Main to Washington Avenue
and hopes are entertained that the
property owners will accept the
better Of the two pavements.
Work has been underway for
several DAYS on the upper portion
of Main Street. the contractors
being kept quite busy building the
surface drains, preparatory to
laying the bithuletic as per con-
tract given out some months since.
From what we can ascertain, it is
more than probable it will be sew
eral weeks yet before the work
will be under full Roadway for the
reason that the contractor has
been unable to get sufficient cars
to transport the material here as
he would have liked. This ap-
plies also to the brick work from
the Southern Pacific depot to the
Post Office property on lower
Main. Mr.. Richie, the contractor
stated on Wednesday that he had
made every effort to secure cars
to haul the brick here, but so far
had failed in his plans. This is
unfortunate. especially because
we will soon be facing the winter
months and it will make it very
1;"icr't to proceed steadily with
-hese 'mrrov "ments. Our citizens

VOTE FOR THE NEW HIGH
SCHOOL BUILDING.

On Tuesday, October 7th, our
property holders and citizens OF
the Sixth Ward will be called
upon to give their approval Of the
proposed tax in favor of the
School Board for the erection Of a
central high school in New Iberia.
1t is the intention of the members
: Of the Board to issue 5000, 10000
worth Of five per cent bearing
bonds. covering a period Of thirty
years, in order to get available
funds to purchase site and erect
high school building in New Ibe-
ria to meet the requirements OF
the patrons of our public schools.
1t is also the intention to so i'm
prove the Julia Street school build
ing so that all of the children will
be afforded comfortable study
rooms in the future. The present
structure being totally unfit for
further use.
The sentiment in New Iberia is
almost unanimous in favor of the
projects proposed by the Board,
and it is the wish of the members
that all of the property holders
give their sanction to the tax on
the 7th. New iberia has for years
needed suitable high school
building. the present one being
Inadequate to meet the wants of
the pupils. The truth Of the mat
ter is that our present high school
building is entirely too small to
accommodate the classes, and the
fact that hundreds of children
have to be taught in the base
ment is a reflection on the COM

PUBLIC ROADS DISCUSSED
AT CHAMBER OF COM
MERGE.

On Monday evening last at the
regular meeting Of the Chamber
of Commerce one of the principal
topics discussed, appertaining to
the welfare of our people was that
Of good roads. 1t being impos-
sible to construct the proposed
gravel highways in the Parish be-
for next year, owing to the great
difficulty in procuring cars to haul
the material, it was the unanimous
opinion amongst the membership
that the Police Jury take steps at
once to repair every piece Of road
in the Parish that needs attention.
After a general discussion it was
moved, seconded and carried
unanimously that. the Chamber Of
Commerce meet in a body with
the Police Jury at their first meet
ing in October to impress them
with the importance~of repairing
all roads, as soon as it is prac-
ticable to get labor and wagons to
do the work. Relief must be
forthcoming within the next thirty
days, or else in many sections it
will he an utter impossibility Tor
our farmers to haul their products
to the mills, or to come to the Par
ish seat to transact business.
There is no use to wait longer for
road building material under the
present circumstances The pah-
lie have suffered enough incon-I
veniences and it devolves upon the
members Of the Jury to take steps
at once to improve the highways
Of the Parish, at least to the ex.!!
tent Of opening drains. and filling
in the holes with shells, or some
thing that will enable the use Of
the highways during the rainy sea-
son. Almost every day we are
besieged with messages from the
rural residents to the effect that
we call the attention Of the Jury
to the quagmires on our highways.
The people Of the Parish had
looked forward to some relief and
in each Ward the property hold
ers voted special taxes to build
gravel highways. thinking. by this
time the work would be underway.
Now that it has dawned upon the
citizens that but little will be done
this winter. owing to the scarcity
Of cars to haul the material, they
are making an appeal for tempo
rary relief and are entitled to. t..
We feel certain the members oil
the Police Jury will do every-
thing within their power to fixl
the bad places within the next
thirty days.
