General Miles attack on the meat
sent to the army, charging that the
meat was embalmed or chemically
treated, has created profound sensa-
ton. Others are coming forward with
statements on the same subject, and by
and by the whole matter will have
been ventilated. 1t is said that BOrax
and Salicylis Acid were put upon the
meat to preserve it. The meat was 50
doctored with chemicals that flies kept
away. Neat must be dangerously treat

wanted to eat his cake and keep it
too, but never before of a business

send to JAMES VICKs SONs, of RO-

this in their Guide. The Golden

Smallpox and Vaccination

The prevalence of smallpox in
an epidemic form in several locali-
ties in Texas and the presence Of a
considerable number of cases in the
pest house at New Orleans make
some remarks on the subject pecu-
liarly appropriate at this time.
There is no disease more GER
tainly contagious than variola or
smallpox, and the danger to life in
this disease is always serious. In
the large majority of cases small
pox occurs but once in a lifetime.
Exceptions are we'll known, how
ever; some in which the same per-
son has had it three-it is SAID,
even five times.
Before vaccination, thousands
died annually from smallpox. Jen-
ner's introduction into professional
practice of inoculation with the
virus of cow-pox, known before his
time among dairymen, has greatly
abridged not only the destructive
ness, but the prevalence of variola-
1t is a we'll established fact that
most persons are by one good
vaccination, protected for life; that
modified smallpox, occurring in the
vaccinated, is very seldom fatal and
hardly ever pits; and that repeated
vaccination after an interval of
years, will make protection almost
always complete.
Experience shows that a small
number of persons, after several
years, reacquire the susceptibility
to smallpox. AS the only test of
this is exposure either to the latter
or to Dacclni0, the renewal of the
| latter, at least once after puberty.
is always advisable. On the occa-
sion of epidemics or possible eX
posure to smallpox, vaccination
should be repeated again and again.
1t is certain that smallpox is ex-
tremely rare in re-vaccinated per
sons, and the little discomfort at
| tending the operation cheaply prr-
chases immunity from the terrible
disease.

THE GRAND /UR Y'S RE-
POPT

In another column is published
the report of the Grand Jury which
was made to the court last Thurs
day.
The report shows the Offices of
the sheriff, clerk of court an1 treas
urer to be in good coudition. 1t is
not SO very eulogistic, however, in
commenting upon other branches of
the parochial government.
The public schools, the report
says, are satisfactory in a modified
sense. 1t is not very explicit on
this subject, but from the wording
Of that portion Of the report, it is
to be inferred that the school affairs
Of the parish are not in the health
lest of conditions. But the Jury
makes only one charge, if it can be
called d charge, against some one
connected with the schools in the
sixth ward (Carencro), and it calls
the attention of the School Board
to the dilapida:ed condition of GER
tain school houses in this parish.
The Jury devotes a considerable
portion of its report to the Police
Jury. That body is quite severely
arraigned-or rather certain mem
bers Of that body. The meth
DDS employed by certain police
jurors in the disbursement of road
funds are crlticized, and the derelict
members are warned that if they
continue to handle the public money
in this manner they will pc prose
cuted according to law. While the
general arraignment of certain mem
bers Of the Police Jury, without
specifying any particular one, is
doubtless unfair to those members
of that body who have not been
guilty of any violation of the law,
The Gazette is confident that
the Grand Jury has deemed it best
to treat this matter in a general
way, believing that specific charges
at this time would be unwise and
not calculated to obtain the de
says IN plain English that in the
future it will see to it that the
abuse of which it speaks will not be
permitted.
In this as in other matters the
Grand Jurors have shown deter
min tion to do their duty and they
are to be commended for it. The
movement inaugurated by the
Grand Jury is eminently proper.
If there is any corruption in any
branch of our parochIal govern
ment let it be probed to the bottom.
In its report the Grand Jury
seems to outline the course that it
will pursue in the future. From
the tone of its first report the peo-
pie have reason to look to it for a
conscientious and fearless discharge
of duty.

The Gazette failed to mention in
its last issue the death of Mr.. Oc-
tave Theriot which occurred near
Royville on the nth of this month.
Mr.. Theriot was a native of La
fourche, but had been a resident OF
this parish for number of years.
He was a most estimable gentleman
and his death was a great loss to
his family. Not only has his death
taken away a good husband and
father but the parish has lost an
excellent citizen, who was respected
by all who knew him. An honest
man, kind and charitable, he is sin
cerely regretted by the whole com
munity of which he was an honored
member.

LET II. Be /NTE.S SZIC4 TED.

LET IT BE IN E.S7IC4 TED.
The Grand Jury has charged Jno.
f. Primeaux, police juror of the
fourth ward, with having obtained
public money under false pretenses.
Two indictments of this nature were
brought against Mr.. Primeaux.
A previous Grand Jury has
charged Ben Avant, LoliCe juror of
the second ward, with the embezzle-
ment of public funds.
Therefore, two members Of the
Police Jury stand charged with hav-
ing misappropriated funds that be
longed to the parish.
The honor of the Police Jury as
a body, the reputation Of the ac-
cused jurors if they are innocent,
the cause of public morality and
the interests of good government
demand an early investigation into
these charges. We understand that
there will be term of court held
in the month of May, when we
trust it will be possible to try these
cases. The Gazette has no doubt
that District Attorney Gordy will
display his usual zeal and ability in
securing a speedy and thorough in
vestigatiou of these matters, and
shas he will be supported in lis
efforts by the Judge and every other
offic of the court.
These charges are of serious
character. Two men, who hold
positions OF honor and trust, are
charged with having appropriated
parish money to their own use.
Those members of the Police Jury
in whose official acts the searchlight
of the Grand Jury's investigation
has failed to disclose any flaws,
should crave for a thorough investi-
CATION Of this matter, and do all in
their power to rid that honorable
body of any members who may
prove to be unworthy.

which is to be built for Miss Louise
Revillon on the lot near Mr.. CAT

POLICE JUROR
Indicted by the Grand Jury-TwO
Charges Made Against Him.

Last Thursday afternoon the
Grand jury reported two true bills
against Jno. f. Primeaux for OBJ
tanning money under false pretenses.
Primeaux is the member of the Po-
lice Jury from the fourth ward. He
was elected to that office at the gen
cral election in 1896.
One of the indictments charges
that Primeaux, by false representa-
tions, induced the Police Jury to
approve an account IN favor of one
f. Willis for the sum of Sa5. so, al
legged to be due by the parish for
draining and grading on the public
roads.
1t is also charged that Primeaux
collected the amount himself, and
defraud the Police Jury
The other Indictment is of the
same nature. 1t is for having, by
false representations and pretenses,
obtained $4,000 in the name of T.
Menard, to whom the Police Jury
was induced to believe the parish
was indebted for some work done
on the roads.
Sheriff Broussard arrested Pri-
meaux Thursday night. He was re-
leased shortly after on a bond of
$500 for each offense.
Both offenses of which Primeaux
is charged are punishable in the pen
itentiary in case of conviction.

of the opportunity to preside over
a meeting of Democrats of the town
of Lafayette called together for the
purpose of nominating ticket to

the rapid strides being made by
Lafayette in the march Of progress.
Only a few years ago Lafayette,
said the speaker, was but a small
town. while today it has a most
brilliant future. 1t was of vital
! Importance to entrust the munich
pal affairs of the town to good and
competent men and for that reason
he was glad that the citizens Of the
corporation had met for that pur-
pose. The remarks Of Judge De
baillon were we'll received and he
was warmly applauded.
Mr.. Ed. G. VOORHEES, was elected
secretary of the meeting. Judge
| Debaillon asked what was the wish
of the meeting and invited any one
who had any suggestion to make tc
| speak.
Judge Julian Mouton moved that

onded the motion and it was car.
ried without dissenting vote.
