The editor of the Breaux Bridge Union
says if the people of Cade's will make a
proposition to them TO go to Iberia
and also if those of POinte Claire are
willing to 60 they will vote for. their
transfer and to accommodate the residents
of Bayou BOutte who rightfully belong
to the parish of St. Mary, they would al
so vote for their transfer, although they
would very much regret to part with
them. This is an involuntary confess
sion of their weakness. they would be
willing to compromise with those sec
tiOns and make any sacrifice to secure
their end. their only ambition-the court
house. He further adds If st. Martinville
wants to go to Iberia, they will cheer
fully vote for her transfer. We have no
doubt they would be very glad to see us
go to Iberia, then they would run
the parish in their own way, would have
the court house in the centre Of Breaux
Bridge who would put on her cap and
look city like. YOu are very kind, we
thank you, but you should know that We
can manage this TO our own satisfaction.
We are very well as we are, the court
house will remain where it is, and in the
future as in the past, we propose to man.
age the affairs of the parish. If, howev.
er. the court house were to 60 TO Breau,
Bridge, then our citizens would be in
measure to take step5 To 90 to Iberia, bu
until thcn, no.

A Tempest Near the Union
Office.

The Messenger last week put in mo
tiOn storm which it inclosed in nut
shell and gave it the direction of Breaux
Bridge, and when in the neighbOrhOOd of
the Union Office, exploded with terrific
force the cOmmOtiOn of which has shaken
the very foundation of the Union Office
and has thrown its editor in Mysteries,
and while in half unconscious condi-
tiOn has surveyed the damages caused by
the miniature storm, which was moth
ing more than criticism Of their weak
and inconsistent resolutions adopted by
mass meetings at Breaux Bridge. The
editor Of that paper has seen in his
semi-cOnsciOus condition, insults ETC.,
in our CRITICS I'D, which shows that his
mind was strongly affected at the time
he read them, or his utter ignorance of
the English language.
The resolutions adopted were unrea-
sOnable and uncalled for, and the letter
of Hon. James +. MOuton Judge of this
district, approving the police jury OF
their action in providing against the
destruction Of the public records Of this
parish, and requesting further, that the
Jail be put in condition to secure the
safe custody Of prisoners incarcerated
therein, is proof of it. Upon this, the
police jury considered the situation,
consulted the financial resources Of the
parish, and after some deliberatiOn pass
ed a resolution calling for bids or pro-
pOsals for the construction Of two steel
cages in the Jail, which will cost about
5000 or 5000. This resolution was
adopted without any OppOs itiOn, not
even the members of the fourth and
fifth wards voting against it.
Are the members OF the police jury a
set of stup id fools? II the parish is in
the financial condition represented by
the Union, they are; but We believe it to
be quite the contrary, the members of
the police jury know the average yearly
expenses OF the parish. and also Know
the revenues of the parish, and their Con-
tracts are accordingly.
The articles i'm refutatiOn Of our cri
ticism are as weak as the resolutions,
if not weaker, they are nothing but a
confused mixture Of words expressing
nothing, and evading the point at issue;
We propose to protect our interest and
treat upon matters Of vital interests for
the people of the whole parish, and not
spend our time and crowd our columns
with yard long articles about nothing.
The Union in future will abstain from
refuting our trifling arguments.
Well, we presume his last efforts were
such terrible strain upon his intellec-
tual faculties that he will be right not
to undertake such a terrible and diff
cult task.

Sheriff Isaac Broussard of Lafayette.
passed through town Wednesday NOR
ming accompanied by some deputies, in
pursuit of negro who murdered his
wife at Carencro, Lafayette parish, the
night previous. Sheriff Broussard call
ed upon Sheriff Gardemal on arriving
here, at about midnight and general
search was made for the murderer but
without avail. At about o'clock in the
morning Sheriff Broussard sent some of
his deputies by the way of Breaux Bridge
Broussardville and New Iberia. In the
mean time Sheriff Gardemal who was
suspicious that the murderer was secre-
ted somewhere in this neighbOrhoOd,
kept keen eye or what he thought sus
picious, and with the detective skill he
possesses, was soon on the track of the
murderer and placed him under arrest at
4 O'Clock the same evening and notified
Sheriff Broussard by telegraph to come
for his prisoner.

That Cantankerous Old Woman.

Described in the nursery ballad, who
"lived upon nothing bat victuals and
drink" and yet would never be quiet"
was undoubtedly troubled with chronic
indigestion. Her victuals, like those Of
many other elderly persons whose diges-
tive powers have become impaired, didn't
agree with her. This was before the era
of HOStetter's Stomach Bitters, or some
one Of her numerous friends and rela-
tives would undoubtedly have persuaded
her to try the great specific for dyspep-
sia, constipation and billiOusness. This
would have been a measure OF self-prO-
lection on their part. for she would soon
have been cured and ceased to disturb
them with her clamOr. The most Obsti-
nate cases of indigestion, with its attend
ant heartburn tlatulence constant uneas-
ineSs of the stomach and Of the nerves,
are completely overcome by this sOver-
eign remedy. Chills and fever and bill
iOus remittent, rheumatism and kidney
troubles are also relieved by it.
