Lafayette's advancement is gradually
hopeful of seeing her yet the leading city of
southwest Louisiana. Lafayette must sue
coed. Numerous manufacturing corpora
| tons are being organized-a sugary refinery
is nearing completion, waterworks pre- under
ADJUSTMENT. The latest s'fact" IS one or
more ice factories, that is, judging from the
active reports made by both our local papers,
The Gazette and the Advertiser. Whether
it's s.ice'' or 'scat," we know not, but some
thing may be in bag seeking an exit The
Gazette says a Mr.. Brown, jr., from Cam
den, Ark, will remove his ice factory to
Lafayette. The Advertiser says a gentle
man hailing from Vernon, Texas, will also
be ready for operations in the next ninety
days. Which is which, Camden or Vernon?
We hope wide-awake weeklies will set
oubtful that ssMossback'' is again s'scored."
