to transform itself into the diminant
class of oppressors, but rather to
abolish every kind of exploitation,
domination, and oppression. Because
this is so, it needs organisations which
are far different from those which
the bourgeoisie needed It must not
follow the example given by the
bourgeoisie, but rather the example of
the revolutionary proletariat in pro-
gressive countries, such as the Partisan
Proletariat which overthrow the for
mer system and set up the Paris Com

Good Roads

The people who have to use the
roads in their line of business are
meeting tough proposition these
days. The roads through out the
parish Except that stretch of
gravel road in the second ward)
are in such condition that traffic
is near an impossibility.
The present dirt roads would
be in condition that traffic would
not be impeded were there some
drainage; but there being no drain
age that after each rain the water
has to stand there until it is alb
sorbed by the elements. Worse
yet is that some rice farmers has
road flooded because their syphon
bitches have not the necessary
levees to keep the water in it's
channel and the water runs until
it finds it's level and very often
the center of the road is covered
with two or three inches of wa
ter, and this happens not only
once for one day but weekly for
the entire pumping season. Now
were there drainage such condi-
tons would not exist. No hard
surface road will hold up without
drainage and much less a dir:
road.
We are now paying specia
road taxes for some time but lit
tie have we received
We earnestly hope that such
conditions Will be relieved very
soon

Big New Menagerie
Feature Of Circus
Ringing Bros. and Barnum &
Bailey Combine Finest of
Animal Exhibits.

A gigantic colony OF strange beasts
is soon 70 be added 20 this city. II
is composed OF the greatest mum Der
and the finest animals that have ev-
er toured America For this NAM
moth zoo is the menagerie resulting
from the combining OF the Ringing
Brothers and the Barnum and Bailey
Circuses.
When these two great shows were
brought tOether recently, many ex-
pertS spent weeks IN selecting the
best. and most curious animals from
each. To this selection were added
new and other animals brought from
over seas Heretofore the two big
amusement enterprises had content
ed themselves with exhibiting ami
mails in pairs and families Here was
an opportunity 10 create something
entirely different, namely. the herd.
And this has been done. The CRATES
vii serve as an example. Those of
the two shows and other recently i'm
ported specimens have been banded
together in a group Of not less than
eight Of these rare and priceless
animals. No more than three gi-
RATES. have ever before been eXhib-
tied at one time. Those OF the Ring
ling Brothers and Barnum and
Bailey Combined shows number all
the CRATES in America with the ex-
ceptiOn of one or two less interest
ing ones owned by geological gar
dens.
The elephants OF this great. new
circus number practically all Of the
pachyderms in this country. The
"baby section" is big feature Of the
menagerie this season. including two
baby CRATES. several lion cubs.
three tiger whelps. a baby kangaroo.
five baby elephants and an infant
camel. The baby elephants are al
ready wonderful performers and can
do almost anything from playing
jazz band instruments to dancing the
tango.
other interesting animal speci-
mems Of a hippopotamus weighing
seven tons, a two-horned and an ar
mored rhinocerous big as horses.
and a big lair full OF South African

MEXICAN LEADER
DENIES CHARGES
Says Wireless Station at Cha.
pultepec Never Commune
Gated With Huns.

MEXICO CITY, July 25.-Denial
of published charges that the ma
tional wireless station at Chapulte-
pee was used TO communicate with
Germany during the world war and
that its personnel is German in its
most important components is made
in a statement printed in FL Heraldo
de Mexico over the signature of +.
Frias, the new director general of
the national telegraph lines.
According 10 Senior Frias, the
Cha pultepec plant was in process of
construction from the middle of 1917
TO the middle Of 1919 and, because
it could not function at full efficien-
cy during that time, communication
with Nauen was an impossibility.
Senior F'rias asserts that the only
Germans connected with the station
are employed in the shop annexes
and are engaged exclusively in max
ing new wireless equipment for 90
operate the station.
The Mexican wireless system, Sc
nor Frias states, consists of % sta
tions, 4 on the coasts and 9 in the
interior. The coastal stations are
mainly for maritime service while
the interior stations, with Chapul-
tepec, are for the service of the gov
eminent, especially when other lines
of communication are cut a contin-
gencq. he declares, has been, unfor-
tunately common for the last ten
years.
