having doubled it's business.

FOR PUBLIC INFORMATION.

For the information of the general
public, the Good Roads Commission
gives the following statements wit1
reference to the cost of surveys, the
maintenance on the individual roads,
bridges and culverts; also the scale
of wages now in effect.
The Commission has made sur
Veys on approximately 60 miles OF
road, which has cost approximately
$4,000 per mile. Contract has been
made with Mr.. S. R. Daniels for sur
veys on approximately 60 miles of
road at cost of $500 per mile, in
cluding all expenses incidental there
to. 1t is believed by the Commis-
sion that this is very unusual price
in view Of the fact that contract
has recently been let in another par
ish for the same kind of work which
pays $500 per mile and furnishes
the engineer with an automobile and
OuS HAL, WHICH, VII Iu0lly u6uISo " ~
at the rate of $45.00 per mile.
According to that, on our 60 miles
OF contracted survey, we have saved
practically $120O.O0.
The maintenance work done by the
Commission aggregates IT miles,
costing approximately $4,000, made
IN as follows.
The Madisonville-Ponc road
lis miles; Turnpike Road, miles,
$627.S0.
Military road, 7 miles, $24.75;
Zen Williams, miles, $346.50; Lee
Road, II miles, $667.22.
Covington-Talisheek Road, 14.5
miles; Talisheek-Bush Road, miles,
and Bush-Covington Road, Is miles,
$501.53
Bridges and culverts account main
tcnance, as follows:
At ST. Tammany, bridge and 4
culverts, $104.65; Lee Road bridges
and culverts, $43.32.
The work has not yet been COM
pleted on the Bennett bridge, for
which it is impossible to render
statement at this time.
The scale of wages adopted by the
Commission which has been in effect
since September 1st, is 25c, SOC and
35c per hour, according to expert
ence and efficiency, and 55c per hour
for the foreman in charge.

THE UNOPPOSED CANDIDATES.
DINNER.

Thursday evening dinner was
given by the unopposed candidates
holding office in st. Tammany parish.
Gabe's Tavern will now have the
marked distinction Of having been
the auditorium of the first Grafton Of
the greatest sheriff St. Tammany
parish has ever had, whom the peo-
pie have honored after service Of
sixteen years by retaining him in Of
fee unopposed.
Mr.. Morgan was looked to as the
orator Of the occasion and was fire.
quently urged to say something.
But Mr. Morgan is nothing il not
constructive, and he was busy con-
structing. He built pyramids on his
plate of chicken, roast beef, maca-
roni and side dishes, the problem be-
ing to figure out just how the plate
could be constantly replenished and
kept at a stated height without any
noticeable falling off in altitude. He
might have succeeded in this had
not some one opened the liquid re-
freshment canal and allowed it to
realizing the Imminent danger, open
ed the gate to his internal canal and
allowed the stream to pass harm
lessly inside, but he forgot to close
il in time to prevent the contents
Of his plate, from following suit. A
splash was heard and the silence fol-
lowing was broken by his eloquent
appeal for an after-the-War harmony
that would dissipate all conflicts.
In the meantime Mayor Badon,
Judge Burns and Mr.. Julius Heintz
were surreptitiously endeavoring to
outdo Mr.. Morgan's accomplishment
in food conservation-and they were
some opponents, too.
But the great surprise Of the even
ing was when the great and silent
Sheriff voluntarily arose and thank
ed his friends for the confidence they
had reposed in him by retaining him
in office unopposed and feelingly re-
viewed circumstances attending his
political career. His words were Wei
chosen, his sentences full Of pith and
meaning and his remarks generally
clothed in literary finish that would
have been creditable to a celebrated
after-dinner speaker. And the best
Of it all, everybody realized that it
came from his heart.
, Mayor Badon and Hon. Fred. j.
Eeintz added to the pleasure of tho
evening by anecdotes and recitals
that brought to light traits Of char
acter and incidents in the life Of old
time celebrities that were very hum
0rous indeed.

Prentis5 B. Carter. Among the
many speakers during the week Hon.
Don Caffcry, Col Stubbs and Hon.
Amos L. Ponder, all of whom made
excellent talks, but probably the
most interesting was the joint dis
cussion by Col. Stubbs and Mr.. Pom

from New Orleans with Col. Stubbs,
and during his speech Joined with
the Stub1s supporters of St. Tam

which were largely devoted to the
agricultural interests Of the state
