Silsby Fire Engine for opelousas.

notwithstanding the fact that the
proposed ordinance for the purchase o
a steam fire engine, by tax upon the
property holders Of the town, was voted
down few weeks ago, the mem bers ol
Fire Company No. determined to have
one through their own personal exer
tions, and by the aid of il mum Der of onl
citizens who are friendly to the Com
pany and iis purposes.
To carry out this object, they opened
correspondence with manufacturers
OF engines, and a few days ago Col. Sad
ler, the agent of the Silsby Mfg. Co.,
came to Opelousas and offered such
terms to our fire company that an Oh
gine was contracted for upon the res
possibility Of the members as an indie
pendent organization. We have already
published Il description of the Silsby
steam fire engine, and it is unnecessary
to repeat, in this article, the merits OF
this splendid machine. Col. Sadler, the
agent, is a Southern man by birth, whe
served in the Confederate army during
the late war, and was u college mate ot
a number of our parishioDers; besides,
he comes to us with the best of testi-
monials as to the fair dealing of tho
manufacturers of the Silsby engine, and
Of the easy and effective working Of the
engine in speedily quenching fire. He
assures Fire Co. No. | that the Silsby
engine will perform all that is claimed
fer it, and that when the people of OPP.
elousas soc its practical workings, all
Of the opposition heretofore urged
against steam fire engines will disap-
pear; that wherever sold they have
given universal satisfaction, citing
D0naldsonyille, near us, as an example
and ready reference, He states there
are orders for eighteen of these ma,
chimes on file at present, aud that they
are in use throughout the United States
Canada, Europe, Asia and West Indies.
Fire Co. No. have faith in the Silsby
steam engine, and will have one in a
few weeks. They not enly expect to
put out fire when flames break cut, but
expect to dissipate all opposition to it
when the taxpayers see it's splendid
and rapid workings.

community is improving. We have no
public schools in this vicinity for either

Evergreen. at which place there is a
good school. The colored folks have "a
school at Holmesville. During part of
the year there was a school at Cola
the last of 1881 and beginning of 1889
but we have not been informed whether
it will be opened again this fall or not.

To F. F. Perrodin, President.
Dear Sir: In July, 1880, the Democratic
Parish Executive Committee, Of which you
ara now President, assumed and exercised the
right TO appoint for the Democratic party of
cur parish, delegates to the Congressional
Convention then called to meet at Baton
Rouge, to nominate candidate for Congress.
This WAS done against my wish and vote, and
was an uniustitiahle usnrpation of power. l
did not then resign. because by remaining in
the Committee, my vote, hoped, wopld assist
and possibly prevent its being repeated, if at
tempted but what then occurred has been
repeated. The Committee has again usnrped
this authority, and as | do not wish to remain
and be held even remotely responsible for the
action of u body which persists i'll disregard
ing the right of the Democratic masses Of our
parish to select their own representatives in
political conventions, l hereby tender my re-
signati0n as n member OF that body.
Respectfully yours, LOUIS YOUNG.
