The vindieatof Snl Tie Printing,

We understand that duri0ge the
debate on the public printing for Tie
parish, an assertion Was made that
tho INDICATOR Was paid ''last yea'
orer 600 for the public printing fol
tho parish. Statesmen, when they
deal in figures should 10 very-,sry
correct or they are apt to clip up.
The vINDlcAroR has been paid for
printing the Minutes cfthe msst;ags q
tie Police Jury since April 9th 1872
nearly too years--@2l7 90, or >l5s 50
psv ysas.
1t has been paid by the parish ia
oil, for that tims-t'eo years-6ve hon.
dred and ninety ono dollars, or two
hundred and ninety dollars and
fifty cents per year, for all MANNER 0,
printing done.
The amount of difference between
the @3l7 90 and tho &59l 90 10 made
up 10 publishing Jury Lists, judicial
sales for forfeited bonds, quarantine
proceedings and Job work iu 1879.
Treasurer's estimate of expenses,
Letter Heads, election notices aud
blanks, promulgation Of election,
blank notices, and commissions to
road overseers, and road apportion>

profit
Il will DO econ BY THE that the
Mioutes have been but . email par,

received 900 10 any ono year 10
totally without foundation.
We would not refer to this, bat We
lre pai0ed Il should have been made
when II We 20 essy to have procured
The correct 6gures. We thought the

very ebsaply, and think - still,
when we consider that the Rspvbliess
