BETTER SCHOOLS ARE DE-

Washington, July 13.-The
National Education Convention
just closed in Boston emphasiz-
ed many matters of Importance
to the country regarding the
teaching of it's youth. Among
these none can be considered Of
greater Importance than the in
creasing demand in rural COM
munities for a higher standard
of education than has obtained
i'm the past. The little red
schoolhouse" of song and story
has served its purpose and gone
out Of date. With good roads
and adequate transportation
facilities, good schools, with
first-class equipment and prop
|erly trained teachers can be
made available for any commune
|ity, no matter how small. To
awaken local authorities to- the
essential need Of lettering the

A MONUMENT TO PEANUT
POLITICS

Commenting on the recent
session of the Louisiana Legis-
Iature, the New Orleans Times
Picayune has the following to
say editorially:
The legislative session ended
Thursday night set a new and
horrible example of futility and
messiness. In sum, it represents
q practically complete waste of
the time and public money ex-
pended upon it. A motion to ex-
punge its record from the pages
of the states legislative history
is not in order, unfortunately.
1t must stand as written, a mon
ument to the peanut politics, in
trigue, pettifoggery, and parlia-
mentary ineptitude that wreck
ed what should have been a use
full session.
Let it be said in fairness that
the responsibility for the legis-
lative disaster lies mainly with
the House. The Senate func-
toned with a dignity and eff
cheney that shone by comparison
with the performances across
the corridor. The Senate kept
itself and its business in order,
avoided horseplay and obstruct-
i've tactics, permitting contro-
versiaI measures to come to vote
ia due course. That this news
paper does not approve of all its
acts takes nothing away from
our praise of the dignifed, or
DERBY and businesslike conduct
Of its business.
The House, on the contrary,
after 4 brave start lost its direc-
ton. forgot its duties and its
mission, floundered thirty or
forty days in q mental or spirtu-
ous haze indefensible and not

|ians outside of Baton Rouge. It's
members, returning home,
doubtless are amazed by their
own weird performance.
C0ol-headed analysis Of this
greatest legislative debacle since
reconstruction days will reveal
the principal causes thereof.
The most conspicuous of these
was introduced by the effort to
outlaw the race-track gamble.
The fight against a strongly in
trenched evil invariably is
marked by scandals or scandal
cites, by parliamentary jockey
ing and Juggling, by the under
surface play of interests that
viii not bear the light. The
struggle to block the Butler bill,
passed by the Senate June /
and promptly sent to the House,
largely explains the legislative
jam and confusion that wreck
ed the session. There were other
influences at work, however.
Powerful Hobbies bent on block
ing other important legislation
contributed their full share to
the mess. The voting machine,

PARISH NEEDS A.
BOOSTERS ASSOCIATION.

For years we have been in a
state of resolving and organizing
all kinds Of associations without
accomplishing anything. But
now that Grant parish will soon

it is very essential that we get
together and organize and be
ready to meet the boom that is
coming when the last mile-post
is reached with the gravel which
will be used in finishing our
roads. We have thousands of
acres Of fine cultivable lands with
the best supply Of water, and we
should endeavor to interest peo-
pie abroad by inviting them in
and showing them our lands.
What we will have to do to ac-
complish great things for Grant
parish is to get fully acquainted
with the value Of every available
spot. To do this we will have
to get together and discuss these
matters. BY concentration and

DALLAS THINKS L. r. & N.
WILL ENTER THAT CITY


The Dallas, Texas, News has
the following to say concerning
the purchase of a branch of the
M. K. & T. railway by Mr.. VIM.
Edenborn:
Confidence that William Eden
born, railroad builder and oil
man, will extend his recently
purchased road to Dallas and
will make this city a terminal Of
the system is growing here, it
was announced by Albert l..
Reed, traffic manager of the
Chamber Of Commerce.
Mr.. Edenborn, who owns the
Louisiana Railway & Navigation
Company, recently announced
that he would take over the
Greenville branch of the M, X.
e T., running between Green
vile and Shreveport. There the
road will connect with the L. r.
& N, giving a direct line into
New Orleans. Dallas interests
Immediately began making bids
for the extension of the line to
this city.
1t is possible the new system
will enter Dallas from McKin-
ney over another line, Chamber
of Commerce officials say.
The history of the branch
purchased by Mr.. Edenborn has
been an important factor in the
growth of the state. It's original
name was the Sherman, Shreve-
port and Southern, this identity
being lost when the Katy took
the road.
There will be a new name
chosen for the road, and we win
make an effort to have the name
of Dallas Incorporated in the
new title" Mr.. Reed declared.
In railroad circles it is said
that Mr.. Edenborn expects to
connect with the big trunk lines
of Texas, thereby gaining a
through trunk line from the
West and Northwest to New
Orleans.
The interest the people Of Dali
las have shown in the purchase
