OLD Aunt FRANCHISE, in the GOTH
year of her age. native of this Par
ish, and one Of the few remaining
progresses Hbres" of the best days of
our Parish, died at her home on Pine
lsla d on Thursday the 18th of
March, 1878. She was in every
meaning of the words a good, honest
and well behaved woman, one we have
known as far as our memory goes
hack. She was the sistero good old
Frozine, who preceded her to the
grave a few years ago, and was the
aunt of old Manuel of this Town.
She will be remembered by our old.
est house-keepers and many of the
younger ones as the old mulatresse
who regularly once year brought to
our Town for sale, of her own make
and the very best at that, gunabo flee
and ground red pepper. But she is
gone to her long hereafter, and we
will all miss her, and mourn her de-
parture from earth.
The Louisiana Democrat. [volume] (Alexandria, La.) 1845-1918, 1878-04-03

EVERY now and then we read in
the Official Journal Ct Louisiana, the
appointment by Gov. Nlcnolls, of an
Inspector of Weights and Measures Tor
some parish This fact reminds US of
the neglected fact, that the Parish of
Rapides. had to do without that i'm.
portant officer for the whole year of
1877, and up to this writing, none as
yet has been given US. This palpable
neglect is the more Caring when we
state. that a few days after the inau-
guratiou of Gov. Nichols, a suitable
and efficient gentleman was recon-
mended for the Office by large num-
Der of the decent portion of the com
mnnity, besides having received strong
letters of recommendations from high
sources, and thus far after the lapse of
twelve months we still remained
snnbhed. Why or wherefore, that
this is reserved for Rapides we cannot
understand, and we mention it now to
give the outside world an insight into
really bad treatment at the hands of
the Executive of the State.
The Louisiana Democrat. [volume] (Alexandria, La.) 1845-1918, 1878-04-03

The leading Radicals of Rapi"es
are cautiously marsbaling their
clans, and insist that they will carry
old Rapides, but it will be new de
parture as a platform. They prom
Use us no more Kelsos, Lofts, Drews
and that class of statesmen, hut will
give US the best of men, even if they
have to 90 in the Democratic ranks
to fnd suitable personages to grace
their banners to victory. There is
some sense in this, hut we fear it is
interested sense that is turning that
crank. At any rate here is more
room and another chance for Demo
Gratis so-called TO have themselves
endorsed.
The Louisiana Democrat. [volume] (Alexandria, La.) 1845-1918, 1878-04-03

The report of the joint commit
tee OF investigation of department Of
education, submitted to the Legisla
ture is an able aud searching docu
ment and plainly shows that our
Radical friends handled plenty of
the old Peliran's school monies, and
made way with large amounts of it,
We have the docum. Mt before US,
and are glad to note that in Rapides
these vast sums of money, though
spent for very little good to the
children, have all been properly &C.
counted for, and had they been as
ju'Iiriously man ,ged as at present,
we would have at all times a perpet
ual fund in the School Treasury
John DeLacy. Treasurer from 1870
to 1875, received and paid out the
sum of $47,972,96, and E. j. Barrett,
Treasurer from 1875 to 1877, receiv
ed and paid out the sum of $25, 52l,-
96. Thus for seven years, under
Radical rule, the Parish of Rapides
received and disbursed the enormous
amount of three thousand
four hundred: and ninety four dollars
and ninety cents. 1t is well, how
ever, to state in these settlements
that X. j. Barrett in his settlement
turned over all account amounting to
$S096.7S against the Freedman
Saving and Trust Company, with
which institution, by authority of
the School Board, the School funds
were placed by John DeLacy, who
turned the account over to II. j. Bar.
rett, and by Mr.. Barrett the account
was turned over. to the present
Treasurer.
