The residential property of
Mrs. r. E. Fireman, situated on
Duperier Avenue is undergoing a
complete remodeling. When com
pleted this property will be in
keeping with some of the other
dwellings on East Side. Almost
every month for the past two
years the property holders in that
favored residential section Of New
Iberia make some changes that
make the Avenue more desirable
as a residential spot. Once the paw
ing is finished on that thorough
fare there viii not be an Avenue
in any of the South Louisiana
towns to compare with it. Every
owner over there seems
to be imbued with certain civic
pride that others could well en-
ulate.

The rains of the past tire

The rains Of the past three
weeks is causing some Of the farm
ers considerable worry in this
Parish. Much Of the Young corn
has been killed, especially in the
low places. The water melon
crop has suffered very much, in
fact those who had good prospects
for making money out of their
melon crop, lost heavily, due to
the heavy daily precipitation. Of
course the rice farmers with but
few exceptions have saved con
siderable pumping. Within the
next three weeks many of the
farmers will begin threshing and
it is hoped the rains will cease
when the harvesting is started.
With the great amount of rice be-
ing raised this year throughout
the United States and an abund-
ance of the old crop still on the
market there is no doubt that pri-
ces will be considerable less than
last year. In order for our rice
farmers to make any money after
deducting heavy labor expenses
they must realize at least 5000 per
sack. Some have managed to
plant the crop at small expense,
outside of their labor bill. But
the majority have had many
things to contend with that made
the crop an expensive one.

BRYAN THRILLS BIG
AUDIENCE AT BOISE

A crowd OF 1000 people at the base
ball park in Boise Tuesday evening
listened with interest to the great
commoner. William Jennings Bryan,
He lectured under the auspices OF the
Chautauqua, and good portion of
his address was in regard to the pro-
hibition question. The fact that the
United States is dry" is probably
due to his efforts more than to any
other man, and he therefore has the
the right to comment on the matter.
Bryan said Harding is mot prohi-
bitionist and so publicly stated in a
speech in the senate. After discount
ing Harding's record along this line
he added, "and Cox is just as wet as
Harding"
He spoke at length OF the league
of nations and used the democratic
stock argument that the senate is

VA Eeat meeting was held in Mer-
id:an Monday night by the Non-Part-
izan league. Ray McKaig was the
principal SPEAKER. Although the meet
ing was insufficiently advertised there
was a good-sized audience. The speak
er compared the government of Id
aho with that of North Dakota. At
the meeting it was announced that
G. A. Roger had been selected as the
non-partizan league candidate for the
legislature, from Ada county, and
Sam Hunt of Kuna as a candidate for
county commissioner.

. delaying the peace settlement" but
tailed to explain that settlement
is best made if settled right.
Bryan spoke at length of the prof.
iteer but did not offer one suggestion
as to how to get at this undesira BILE
person.
In reality, the telling points of his
speech were directed against the IL
quor traffic, and one would infer by
Tie commoner's remarks that failure
oI the two national conventions to
recognize the prohibition question as
an ISSUE, was an element of weakness
and therefore both conventions failed
IN their purpose.
III the discussion of moral questions
Nir' Bryan was eloquent. He is more
Vi moralist and a theorist than a
practical business man. When Bryan
presents his views ON moral questions
one cannot doubt his seriousness and
good faith. He was pessimistic as to
the appreciation of the American peo-
pei for the free institutions we enjoy.
he said the people were educated
from the fact that the law compelled
'he child to go to school but when
the eight grade was reached not one
"a 90 continued the education by
sn .nelF own consent. He said reforms
tAe temperance, were forced on the
psople, and that it took 30 years of
eiloft by a small portion of the pop
nIation. He cited the w. c. T. u.
t,ol tnu Antl-Saloon League as organiza-
IONS IN which not one in SO of the
people Of the nation took any part.
s0n5 he said educated people" were
oe,li4g oei their birthright, and that ev-
ea. cry bolshevik movement had its in
'ep'ion among college men.

Shall the Farmers ':' y: ::
- Keep Anderson?

There is proposition. on foot to
keep County Agent Anderson on. the
job in ipite Of the County Commits
sioners who insist that they cannot
work with him.
The proposition is for the Farm
Bureau members to form local orga-
nizations and solicit membership in a
special organization costing five dol
lars per head per member. 1000
memberships will support the County
Agents work for a year.
Many of the business men through
out the county have indicated a will
ingness to donate literally to this un-
dertaking. The members of the Farm
Bureau feel that it is a good policy
to stand by an efficient and honest
county agent when they have one and
as they have to support the county
agent anyway it does not make much
difference how the money is raised.
All those interested in this under
taking will kindly write their ideas
to Carl Peterson, Secretary of the
Farm Bureau, Plentywood, Montana.

ROAD BOND ELEC-
TON MAY FIRST
Can't Hold BOND Election Presiden-
tial Day Recause of Conflict in
Laws.-in Try to Bond County

+ Because Of the fact that conflict in
the laws providing for the holding
of the Presidential Primaries and the
law providing for holding County
Bond Eelection, which provides that
the polls shall open at different hour,
in the day, and upon the advice OF
the county attorney that it would be
impossible to combine the election,
the Board Of County Commissioners.
in adjourned session Tuesday, changed
the date Of the Road Bond Election to
Saturday, May 1sty. 60. -.
It. seems that the Primary election
law provides for the opening of the
polls at noon and the closing at 700
|P. M. and the law governing bond
elections provide that the polls shall
open at 8 o'clock A. NJ, and close at
600 o'clock p. M. It is seen that
this would have caused fatal con-
f1ict in the holding of the two elec-
tions together.
The holding of the Road Bond elec-
tion at all is another example of stu
pid waste of the peoples money, for
from the present sentiment, there is
not the least chance Of the electors
passing the road bond issue.
The citizens of Sheridan county
have taken the position that no more
money will be placed in the hands of
the board of county commissioners to
be wasted and squandered as long as
the present majority of the board is
in office.
In view Of the fact that the seed
grain fund is still over $4,000 short
and unaccounted for, it would be sheer
madness to plate any more money in
the hands Of ! Messrs. Matkins and
Timmons and 1T won't. be done and
Messrs. Timnnons and Matkins know
that the eelction will fail.
The voters at this election will also
vote on county poor farm PROPOSE
tion, but that proposition could have
gone over until the general election
in November just as we'll as not.
