TRY 1T ON THE DOG

The government Is experimenting
with aerial mail service and p'anes
are darling about hunting proper
roads.
The aviators navigating in this
territory generally report hard luck
story.
II is to be hoped that the progress
i've spirit will bring the aeroplane to
perfection. But with its many i'm
PROJECTIONS and dangers it seems pre-
mature to experiment with the mail
service.
Our mail service, while being short
of perfection, has stood up under the
stress of war better than any brancr
of public service. We dread seeing
any experiments injected into the
service that would broaden the fielc
for excuses. We hope that If thu
government insists on hauling mai
by the air, that it will confne it
activities to carrying bills and Teiig
ious tracts.-At least until the ma
chimes are made perfect and unit
national prohibition gets in its wor
on the aviators. The average Ameri
can is touchy about the loss OF hi
mail. II we must experiment, VIII
not try it on the "dog" first.

HARTER OF ITALIA B E A
PLANTING CO., INC.

State of Louisiana,
Parish of Madison.
Be it known that before me, the
undersigned authority, duly qualified
and commissioned according to law.
and the witnesses hereinafter named
and undersigned on this the fourth
day of January, A. d., 1919, person
ally came Herbert II. Taylor, a resi-.
dent of Chicago, Illionis, Carlton A.
Randolph, a resident of Evanstown,
Illinois, Jessie b. Erwin, a resident
of Chicago, Illinois. and William H
Ward, a resident of Tallulah, Louis
lana, who severally declared and ac-
knowledged that availing themselves
of the laws of the State of Louisiana
and particularly of Act No. 267 OF
The General Assembly Of the State OF
Louisiana, for the year 1914, they
have formed and organized, and by
these presents, do form and organize
themselves into a corporation anC
body polite for the objects and pur
poses hereinafter set forth and ex
pressed which they hereby adopt a:
the charter Of said corporation, to
wit:
An lICLE
The name and title of this corpor

and mental wrecks. That they are
wanting in mental balance there can
be no question, and that individuals
of this type should be placed IN re-
straint is equally clear. The war mas
brought to light the fact that there
are more kinds of cranks than was
ever dreamed of and it has also dem
onstrated that these cranks are dan
gerous to a deadly degree. That such
human derelicts are increasing IN
numbers is equally true. The number
is already large enough to constitute
a menace to organized government
There must be something wrong with
our educational system. These cranks
must be eradicated and it is time to
commence the work. They are get
ting entirely too numerous. 10 curp
this anarchistic and socialistlc ten
aencv is one of the big issues OF the
age. So far no remedy j. in sight.

CONTINUED CONTROL
CONSPIRACY

The following dispatch appeared IN
the Vicksburg Herald:
"Representative Dyer, of Missouri,
charged in the house tonight that
sinister efforts were being made to
influence members of congress TO
vote for continued government op-
Grafton of the railroads under pain
Of Gefeat at the polls in the next
election.
Final action on the bill appropri-
1ting S75O.000, 900 for the railroad
administration revolving fund went
oyer tonight in the house after re-
lection of an amendment to relln-
nuish federal control next January
1st, and of another preventing the
president from returning the lines
% private owners before July lst
1920, without consent of congress.
The opinion is very general that
We Jumped out of the frying pan
nto the fire" when we got govern
nent control of railroads.
After making all proper allowances
FOR shortcomings due to war condi-
ions, the public still has ground for
serious complaint against government
control of railroads.
If we are to judge from the pres,
ent management of railroads the PEG,
PIE arenot going to accept even gov
eminent control without kick.
About the best that can be claimed
for government control of railroad:
is that it resulted in fairly effici
ent handling of war activities.-Al
private business went to the dogs il
the meantime. We are of theopinior
hat the public has soured on the ide;
of government control of railroads
and as for government ownership o
railroads, the idea grows more pre-
posterous with every days misman
agement Of the transportation of tn
country. The peope are paying high
err freight rates and getting less serv
ice every day.
The present indications are tina
he public will back off as far as pc:
sible from government ownership Q
, even government control. We, ca
stand the ordinary shortcomings c
, abroad magnates, but when thes
! shortcomings are backed up and il
9 ensifed by the government, it PR
uces very bad taste.

MUNICIPAL IMPROVEMENTS

In another column appears con-
tribution relative to the Improvement
Of the streets of the Village of Tai
lulah. The suggestions are timely
and should receive consideration by
the town authorities and by the citi-
Gems. OF course we all appreciate the
fact that war conditions have pre-
vented the undertaking Of new pro-
jects that would call for an expendi-
ture Of money and labor. But the
prospects now for peace are good and
we should take up matters Of public
Improvement. We understand that
the town council now has under con-
sideration measures looking to the
Improvement Of the streets Of the
town, the rebuilding Of the town wa
ter and light pant. OF course we all
appreciate the fact that labor condi-
tions and the high price Of material
have made II out Of the question tc
consider matters Of public improve
ments heretofore, but the time will
soon be at hand when such matters
raust be considered or the town will
fan behind. This Is a matter tha'
calls for the active help Of every
citizen. II the citizens 60 after the
necessary improvements Of the towr
they can accomplish much. We arr
CAD to see the matter agitated ant
feel sure that united action on thu
part Of the citizens and the town au
thorities viii result In such public
improvements ~ win put the towr
IN the front ranks fer civic better
ment. The meeting is open. Le'
every resident speak up and help t.
push the movement for bigger ant
better TaIfulsh.

SATURDAY, FEBURDAY %, 1915

The recent reports coming from
Germany discredit the heretofore &C
cepted theory that Germany gave UP
because she was starving. All re-
norts show that there was fair sup
DIV of food. Germany gave up De-
rsu,. her leaders, like all bullies'
had a big yellow streak. Had these
towards been in the position OF the
French, thew would have begged for
reace at the end of sixty days.

JOSEPH CURRY

The many friends in Madison far-
;sb of Mr.. Jos. Curry, Clerk OF Court
for Tensas Parish, were shocked to
hear Of his sudden death Thursday
morning. 49,.
Mr. Curry was active in politics
and business in Tensas Parish he
was conspicuous as an advisor and
leader in his community. His rare
business judgment was an asset not
only to his parish, but to the sur
rounding country. In his death his
parish and his state has lost citizer
who measured up to high stand
ard. His death is heavy loss to Ten
sas parish.

ing here to-day went on record as op-
posed to the scheme of Mayor John F.
Hylan of New York for pledging AS
semblymen before election on their
stand on matters affecting trolley legis-
lation, particularly as it affected
street car fares. Secretary w. p.
Capes, of the conference, said: "The
conference cannot be pushed into poll
tics that way"
Opening the meeting Mayor Walter
R. Stone, who called the session and
in whose office it was held, told the
members he had assurances from Gov
ernor Smith that the executive would
veto any measures relating to traction
companies of which the Mayors Con-
ference did not approve. He explained
that the executives position would pre-
vent the passage of any law that would
tend to curtail the provisions of exist
, ing franchises between cities and troll
ley companies.
Mayor Hylan had asked the confer
ence to pledge every Assembly candi-
date. to fight any measure that would
tend to increase street car fares or
provide relief for the traction COM
panies.
