Ex-sERylcE MAN FAVORED
FOR PosToFFIcE APPOINTMENT

The time-worn plan of "rewarding
the faithful" in political activities by Sc
curing for such workers political ap-
pointment regardless of qualific ton, is
giving way in many places to comforting
these appointments upon merit and eff
cheney as first requisites.
The candidacy of Carl Erickson for
the position of postmaster At Monte Vista
has received instant support from large
part of the Republican voters and leaders
in the local situation.
Erickson is Republican, an ex-serv-
ice man and has had number of years
Monte Vista journal and Monte Vista graphic-reporter., 1922-07-21

actual experience in the postoffice depart
ment. In the postoffice, he has good
record for capability and integrity and is
well fitted for promotion to the higher
position.
When war was declared against Ger
many, Carl volunteered his services among
the first from this city and entered the
navy branch of the U. S. forces. He was
assigned to very important place at the
naval operating base at Hampton Roads,
Va, and was honorably discharged 1t the
end Of two years service.
The Journal represents popular senti-
ment in endorsement of Carl Erickson for
the important appointment of postmaster
Of this city, subject to his successful pass
ing of the required civil service examina-
tion. Such endorsement shows that the
Republican party while observing politi-
cal affiliation and political integrity, de-
sires to serve the public by meritorious
use of their political power and this com
mends itself to all fair-minded people.
Furthermore, it is in this instance, a meas
ure of appreciation for patriotic service
which is earnestly and constantly desired
by our representatives in congress and by
the National Republican administration at
Washington.

a hypo of real Coloradoitis in order to

the only newspaper in Denver to exhibit
an interest in outside state news, and the
San Luis valley in general and Monte
Vista in particular should appreciate the
extensive publicity which this newspaper
is contributing free of charge.

OFFICIAL MINUTES
CITY COUNCIL

New Iberia, La, Feb. 20, 1922.
The Board of Trustees of the City
of New Iberia convened this day in
regular session with Mayor Ed. La
Sale presiding, Messrs. Broussard
and Villermin present.
The minutes of the previous meet
ing were read and approved on mo-
ton of Mr.. Villermin, seconded by
Mr.. Broussard.
Attorneys Vuillemot and Provost
appeared before the Board with re-
ference to opening an alley on Du-
perier Avenue, known as Pie Alley :.
Said alley being at present closed
and it's location being uncertain, it
is suggested that the City locate it
and order it's opening.
The following resolution was off
cred by Mr.. Villermin, seconded by
Mr.. Broussard and adopted unani-
mously:
Be it resolved by the Board of
Trustees of the City Of New Iberia,
that the City Attorney be authoriz-
ed to communicate with parties
closing alleys and streets within the
corporate limits of the City of New
Iberia, which alleys and streets are
shown on the Official map of the
City, and any one who has fences or
barriers across any alley or street
and fails to remove them after due
notice has been given, be brought
into court to show cause why they
have failed to open said street or al
ley.
A note from American La France
Co. was presented for payment; and
on motion of Mr.. Broussard, second
ed by Mr.. Villermin, the interest on
notes held by American La France
Co. was ordered paid and the notes
renewed, payable on or before one
year from date.
On motion of Mr.. Villermin, Sec
onded by Mr.. LaSalle, the meeting
adjourned.

Side by side with the dairy work
will be taught the principles of
modern farming.
At the smaller tract on which the
A. and M. will be built, the special
ty will be trucking. Not only will
enough truck be raised to support
the school, but the surplus will be
sold to charitable institutions at a
low price.
The college will be equipped to
give the best mechanical training,
and the best methods will be taught
and demonstrated in dairy work,
trucking, and large cropping, so that
no matter what line of production
the boy prefers, he will be able to
receive the teaching he needs to fit
him for his life work.
1t would be possible to raise the
100000 needed from a comparative
ly few persons, but the purpose of
the committee is to give as many
as possible the opportunity of join
ing the movement, because it so Wit
ally affects the community and state
at large.

being handled by Mr.. Edmond Lam

all expenses will be paid.
It will be open to all denomina-
tions; the only requisite for entrance
will be great, throbbing need, and
