AIGH WATER COMING
TO IBERIA PARISH.
Situation AS a Whole Re-
ported Brighter.

The crevasse that occurred a
Bayou de Glaise early Wednesda.
morning, according to those well in
formed on the situation, will un
doubtedly throw large quantity o
water into the lake regions Of Ibe
ria Parish.
A few thousand acres of farm
] land between Loreauville and Lake
Dauterive are already under water
and the added volume of the flood is
certain to increase the damage con-
siderably.
If it can be any consolation, our
citizens can congratulate themselves
on the fact that "it might have been
worse" had the break occurred else
where.
Several parishes will be much
more greatly damaged than will our
own. The town of Morgan City will
very likely go under, on several Of
the principal streets, according to
the views of many who are convers-
ant on the situation.
The T. P. Railroad will most pro-
badly be cut off, as will some other
smaller branch roads.
That the Southern Pacific line be-
tween Morgan City and New Or
leans is safe from any interruption
Of train service, however, is the op-
inion of Local Agent c. A. Barnes,
who states that their track has been
elevated several feet since the high
water of 1912, when, it will be re-
membered, train service was cut off
for a considerable period of time.
Mr.. Feight, manager of The Teche
Transfer Company, was in New
Roads this week, and informed US
that the water of the Mississippi
River was overflowing the top of the
levees at places between there and
Port Allen, so that the situation is |
anything but promising.
In the New Orleans papers we
read that number of the National |
Guards from New iberia, who have
been stationed near Natchez, were
transferred on rush orders to the
scene of the new trouble at Angola,
where a break in the embankment
has flooded the State Prison Farm.
DR.. Fulton was also transferred, and !;

lished for the hundreds of convicts

LEGISLATOR WANTS
STATE IN RACES.
Bill To Put Louisiana In
Race Gamble.

A bill has been introduced at Bat
on Rouge by Mr.. Claiborne providing
for State Racing Commission
which will have entire control of the
races on the Crescent City and the
Jefferson tracks
To make it interesting for the
State of Louisiana to take over the
guardianship Of the ponies, Mr.. Clai-
borne's bill provides for a sharing
with the state of the profits from the
game, the state then dividing its
share of the rake-off among several
charitable institutions, including the
two Charity hospitals and the Insane
Asylum.
Any one who knows race track
gambling, and wants to be honest m
his statements, will have to tell you
that it is perhaps the most vicious
Of all the varied forms of trying to
get something for nothing.
The big business interests who had
a hand in getting the races back into
New Orleans after Gov. Sanders
Knocked them out, are now revers-
ing their arguments. Then they clam
ored about the big crowds, the good
business, the money, that ponies
would bring each year to the Cres-
cent City. They have had several
seasons Of racing in which to test
this out. Now they see their mistake.
The big crowds came, all right, as
expected. Big crowds of cheap sports,
tin horn gamblers, touts, pick pock-
cts, porch climbers, hold ups, lewd
Of course there were always
. scattering of high class gentlemen
who came, too. Owners Of the larg-
er stables of thoroughbreds, and
heir associates. But the undesirables

were always in the vast majority.
These business men have had time
to find out that instead of booming
business, the races have hurt trade
Clerks, laborers, people from all
walks of life, during the racing sea-
son, stop buying clothing, furniture
and other necessities, and use their

the excitement of the track. Bills go
unpaid, families go neglected, steady
workers become Indifferent, business
in all branches is demoralized, while
the ponies are in the City.
Hand in hand with losses at the
track, goes too often, loss of honor,
and then follows first borrowing, then
stealing, by the unfortunate loser. In
hundreds Of cases, many known per-
sonally by the writer, the last chap
ter Of the sad story finds the former
trusted employee, or prosperous mer-
chant, in prison, doing time to pay
Tor stealing money in a mad effort
to recoup his losses at the track.
In its final analysis, can funds
purchased at such a price by the
State, be Of much real value to the
States charitable institutions
1t the State wants to go into the
gambling game in order to raise
funds, why not do the thing right
and bring back the old Lottery sys-
,em? Pernicious as that was, it new
r carried in it's wake crime, mis-
cry and injury to business that in
goes with the racing game.
We hope that the legislature will
lot take Claiborne's bill seriously,
'ut will on the other hand, knock |
'ut the game entirely.

stitutional and statutory enactment.

age-long evil of the liquor traffic.
When, for the qualification of their
appetites, or the promotion Of their
interests, lawyers, bankers, great
merchants and manufacturers, and
social leaders, both men and women,

of anarchy and promoting mob viol-
ence, robbery and homicide; they are
sowing dragons teeth, and they need
not be surprised when they find that

o'clock had rOped in nine of New

The good news spread rapidly. and
the streets in the vicinity of the
Court House was soon crowded with
citizens making eager enquiries as
to particulars of the raid.

and the interested spectators watch

liquor. and the stills unloaded and
stored behind the Court House.
A partial list of the places raided
with the articles seized by the
Sheriff and his deputies, follows:
At the grocery store of "Shute"
Romero, corner of Main and Bridge
Streets, quantity of moonshine
whiskey was seized.
Landry's Cafe lived up to ITS rep
utation by furnishing its quota of
squirrel juice
At Bebe Freeman's place back of
town still, a quantity of mash and
some booze was found.
On DIR. Emmer's property across
the bayou below town a still and
complete outfit of paraphernalia
was turned up. DR.. Emmer inform.

Mr.. George Germany, in charge of
the big King and Valet interests
back Of Loreauville stated few
days ago that the damage in that
section was not as yet disastrous,
but that any added back-water would
undoubtedly prove a severe blow to
the Fourth Ward. This was before
the break at Hamburg, which it is
feared will throw much additional
water upon them, SO that real suff-
ering and want are almost certain to
visit our friends in the upper end of
the parish.

before Nolstead shattered the joy ou
OF life, should not raise their hope:
too high, according to statement
credited Asst. to U. S. Attorne,
DeMar, as reported in the Des
Moines Daily Capital
Better learn to like the Volstead
act for it's here to STAY" SO DeMa,
told the klWanls club at their noon
meeting last Wednesday.
Attorney DeMar pointed out that
the probability of amending the act
to permit beer and light wines is
exceedingly remote Sentiment. he
declared is eighty per cent for pro-
hibition.
To criticism that the act is not en-
forced, the attorney cited figures and
court records to prove the contrary.
THE act should be amended to
provide for severer penalties for
bootlegging and infractions," said
the speaker. He pointed out that the
purchaser of bootleg whiskey is vio-
latlng the law the same as the
seller"
A TIMELY WARNING.
The Eighteenth Amendment has
many enemies, but so long as it is
a part of our National Constitution
it should be obeyed by all good citi-
zens, whether they approve of its
policy or not. If those who like liu-
uor have a right to mock the law
against booze because they do not
agree with it, to be consistent they
must grant to the man who wants to
rob bank the same privilege of
disregarding the law against rob-
berry.
Far sighted jurists see a great
menace in the present lack of res
pect for the 18th Amendment, as
shown in a statement in the Enid,
Oklahoma Daily Eagle:
"The following declaration, unani-
mously adopted by the Judicial Sec
ton composed only of judges) of
the American Bar Association at the
annual convention held not long ago
at Cincinnati, sounds warning to
The American people which they will

"Such warning coming from a |
of jurists should be a |
timely one to all the other lawyers
and judges in the country.

nent of law depend mainly upon the
deals and customs of those who oc-

IRREGULAR BOND
SITUATION GROWS
DISTINCTLY WORSE
Weak S o t S Weaker,
While Previously Firm
Issues Harden.

NEW YORK. May s.-Some OF
yesterdays weak spots in the bond
market turned weaker during the
day. while few of the firm spots
in that list hardened today, with
the result that at the close OF the
market bonds showed tone dis
tinctly more irregular than was
Indicated by yesterdays movement.
Our own government war issues,
to be sure. did themselves proud
by holding not only the ground
won yesterday but by improving
upon II by a little bit. This i'm
provement in Liberties was gen.
orally interpreted with satisfaction
by houses as Indicating that the
investment market in bonds still
enjoys a sound basis. particularly,
as it was pointed out, when that
improvement Is considered in con-
junction with the recent heavy
fiotation of tax exempt securities
here. Yesterdays ready fiotation,
on a "A per cent yield basis of
s75,O00,000 Federal Land Bank
bonds was of course another case
in point.
While the French Republics
and municipals maintained their
previous levels only with diff
Guilty, where in fact those levels
were held. there were spots
within the foreign department
which displayed more than usual
strength.

COTTON TRADING
BROAD AND ACTIVE

NEW YORK. May 9.-There was
another broad and higher cotton
market here today with trading ac-
tive at times and prices fiuctuating
sharply. Further excessive rains
in Oklahoma and parts OF Texas
overnight. with also further unde-
sired rains in the Memphis and Ar
kansas districts stimulated bullish
sentiment in connection with the
sharp bulge in prices for both spots
and futures on the Liverpool mar
ket. The majority of the trade no
longer paid much attention to the
continued cotton mill strikes in
New Hampshire and Rhode Island
or the crisis in the Genoa copfer-
cncc. They were more concerned
about the continued bad weather
over the central and western parts
OF the belt.
