OBITUARY

DR.. JoHN G. Brooks, appointed Sheriff
of this Parish on the 18th, of April last
vice James G. Hayes who had failed to
qualify, died on the 1th, of June. at the
Yellow Sulphcr Springs, Virginia, aged 40
Years.
lie was a native of Mississippi, but had
resided in this parish since 1889. His con
Htitution, naturally feeble, had been com
plctelv undermined by a too assidnous
attention to the practice Of his profession.
Hoping the pure air of the mountains
might temperate his wasted strength and
broken constitution, late in May he started
to Virginia, but it was too late. Disease
had made such inroa1s or him that he
died Il few f|ays after reaching the Springs.
His remains reached this place on Thurs
day last, and the follow ng day were buried
with Masonic honors by Humble Cottage
Lndyc No. IL, of which lie was an cxem-
pl1ry member.
The DR.. had a host Of friends in this
parish-and descrvedly so-fr few men
combined in so eminent a degree as he id,
all those noble qualities OF the heart and
head which attract the love and friendship
of men. lie was a man Of warm and gen
erous heart, of pleasing address, Of nnsha-
ken integrity of character, reHdy to look in
a torgiving spirit upon the faults of 9TH,
and always prepared to esponse as his own
the cause ola friend. In al! our intercourse
with men we have never known a friend
ship so deep, SO Constant, and so ardent as
his.
May He who temoers the wind to the
shorn lamb, look down in mercy upon his
widow and orphans, and give them fortitude
to bear this affecting diSpensation.

Cannot something be done to make the
roads passable to vehicles between this place
and onr sister village Washington. Is
there not some power that can be brought
TO bear to have this road worked and pu,
in order? The law gives ample power to
the Road Over>eer, aud if the gentleman
who fills that responsible position only had
the pcrvc to enforce it, the road in a few
days could be made like a turnpike. We
know not who he is, but we feel he has
been grossly dcrelect to his duty, and hope
at the next term of our District Court, for
an example to others he may be roughly
hand!cd. Though the winter rains have
long since ceased, still the great thorough
fare of travel is in a horrid condition, as
every poor devil will willingly certify to
who is SO Il fortunate as to be compelled
10 make the trip from one town to another,
in any kind of a vehicle. OccaSionallw
some body is found venturc>ome enough to
try to conc through in Il buggy, and ten
chances to one he arrives here with HIS
harness broken to pieces and himself Gov
cred with mud, caused by having to get
out and pull his buggy through a hole
waist deep in slosh and mud. This road is
an absolute disgrace to the parish, and We
hope it will be attended to at once.
-AHIsrlDE>, in the Courier of the 10th in
slant, holds forth ut considerable length on
the recent removals from office in St.
Landry.
He intimates that he will write more on
the subject at a future day. Before doing
so, VIC hope he will post himself on the law,
as he seems to be somewhat in the dark as
yet.
1.-The will examine the law closely he will
find that Governor Warmoth removed nei
Their the Sheriff nor Parish Judge. He
named their successors in office at.
ter these offices had become vacant by failure
Of the former incumbents to take the oath
prescribed by law. If they could not take
the oath conscientiously, or, If able, neglect
ed to do so through a wrong Interpretation
of the law, it is their misfortune as we'll as
that of the public, where a less competent
officer may have been appointed. On their
to take the prescribed oath, the
Governor, in designating their successors
in Office, merely discharged his duty under
the law, which he has sworn to execute.
As long as the law stands on the statute
book, and has not been declared %unconsti-
t%utional, it is his duty as chief executive of
the State to enforce it. This he has done,
this is all he has done, with reference to
the Offices of Parish Judge and Sheriff:
The old Recorder still holds his Office. The
involved in his case, and the two pre-
ones, is howevr, in our opinion en-
different. Proceedings have already
been instituted, and we shall make no fur
comment until a decision is made by
the Court.

Mr.. Wright, at the close of political speech,
turned to MIR. Stephens and said: Sir, demand

Among the thousands who have read the speech

the leader Of the opposition party, Hon. Robert
