That Free Bridge Again.
The editor of the Lockport EagleI
in attempting to throw light on the
free bridge question comes out in a,
somewhat lengthy article and puts It'
to the people of Thabodaux in agch a
manner that the Sentinel thinks
proper to take it up. To put the
opinion of the Eagle man muire plain
lv btfore the people, we reproduce
the article.
Sats the Eagle:
"We notice that the question of a
free bridge for Thibeihux is being
advocated.
We said some tilne ago that ahen
that new railrell switch was com
pleted, the old town would want to
move over the Bayou. But we had
no idea that they would have the
check to put their hands on the
scihool fundl of the pari-l to get the
necessary means to pay for the mov
ing.
B].:luse I he Police Jury, disregard
Ing the interests of the people and of
public education in pitlticu:lar, grant
.d a forty live, year franclise to th.
Locrkport Bulige Co for one huihlre"
dollars a year, whent -the ferry had
been puttilg into the school fund
more than a tiiouias.d liollais a year.
therefore T'hibodaux must htve a
free bridge.
Have the people of Loekport a
free bridge ? Are people ciossed on
the ferry at lcelaund or at I.araung'
Canal free ? N, ? Then, why h,,u'il
they be crosse :it Thlilod:lux free ?
Do you call that "Equal rights to, &i;;
exclusive priveges to none ? '
If theebri c at Thbdxxlatc is matl
flee, who wv:.l oierate it ? \Wh, wil
keep it in repaibs ? TIe parish, of
corire, adul we who lye in Lower
. fourt'he will not onl3y have onil
hilbilen de ri\,l of .a part if ,h .it
education, but we will le compelled
to go dlownl i:ltO outtr p1xOkts anl help
pay toll for the people of Thib.ilanux.
It would tbe very nice for Thih,.
daux, but ift he wa:uts to snake it
flee. let her lease it for a reasonab'e
amount and ihen make it so.
Unless all the f .r lea ansd bridges
of the parisrh are male free, ansd :t,
alppropriation mtude to ,,,e.ate them
andt providing .a salhicient revenue for
the education of our chiiildreii. w,, the
people of Lower Lnfouurche, %i:l m.,st
assuredly resent this latent attempt
of Thib,ilaix to swindle the rest of
the palish. We want what is fair.
and we give the PariLsh Seat warning
now that if she has no more pride
ibout her than to ask such a thing,
we will repr'.etfully decline to pay
her toll and ours too.
But this is all a mrre waste of
words; the Po'ice jury will not for a
moment entertain such a ,roposition."
Now, Mr. Eagle, as to you defend
ing the ca.: of public ednuetr~ at iu
"his parish, we heartily eommlud
your motive. haut even in defenditng
such a question you should be eeftain

Thilbodaux as you do to the above
cited article.
Are you very certain that the
revenues of the Thlibodaux Bridge
are devoted to the school funds ?
As Editor and Princilal o)f the Lock.
port High School, we should presume
that you are, and still, we hold from
positive authority that :'our statement
is inaccuirate.
Coce:t:umg the Loeklprt Bridge
franchise, we agree with you that th,.
Police Jury may have disregarded
the interests of the public schools
when It granted that forty five yeatr
franchise to a private coa poration for
the meagre ulmn of One Hundred
Dollars Il'e annum when thle ferry
was brliging mnore thal a thonc:lld
dollars a year to the sname Iturpose.
With regard to other fer'ri s, tl-y
are private conceruns, running in le
peendently-, liab'e to be taxed like any
other business, and certaiuly no on
will object to the funds thus rasiel
being applied to the cause of edue'.
tion. Now then, it th, pari-h schouls
as it is alleged, receive no benefit
flom tihe revenues of the Brilge, ,of
what constqtlnence (:5ti It be to the
peolle of ILockport niIi to the Editor
of the Eagle if the eltize;s of Tllibo
l'tux and of the left ba;k shouhl
desire al I cltnin tlhe Iriv'lege of a
free Bridge ? ('Uertainly, we are mlal
ing this fight for the beneflt of Thub
odaux anid of the Parish in general
and did not think it necessary to
consult Lockport about tit But when
the E:ug'e says that the pe;ople of
Tltii-dlux ate trying to swind!e the
