THE ASSESSMENT
OF the Parish Revised by the
Police Jury sitting as q
Board of Reviewers.

The Police Jury met last Mon
day as a Board of Reviewers and
revised the assessment rolls. The
revision of the parish assessment
entails a great deal of work and the
Board did not complete its labors
until Tuesday afternoon.
The assessment, as will be seen
from the subjoined figures, shows a
considerable increase over last
years valuation. Whenever it was
deemed proper reductions were
made and in other cases the assess
men.s were raised. The assessment
of the property of the Lafayette
Sugar Refining Company, which
was fixed last year at 500. 900 was
lowered to $4,000. This reduc-
ton is considered eminently fair.
The following is the recapitula-
ton of the roll of 1900 showing the
assessment by wards:

State ment from Sheriff
BrOllsSard.

LAFAYETTE, La, July II, 1900.
To the Editor of The Lafayette Gazette:
In regard to the resolution of the
Police Jury passed as its last meet
ing, instructing me to promptly
place the Jail in sanitary copdi-
ton, 1 would state that it has mis-
taken its powers, and the scope OF
my duties as sheriff. The duty of
keeping the Jail clean does not de-.
volve on the sheriff, such duty rests
on the Police Jury which NAV ap-
point a janitor for such purpose.
Under my contract which expired
the 9th of June last, it was my duty
to keep the Jail clean, as l was viz
tually janitor, being paid by the par.
ish to attend to the sanitary condls
ton of the Jail. Under that COM
tract I attended to the cleanlines -
of the Jail, as well as I could under
the very unsatisfactory system Of
evaporation now used in the jail.
4 Respectfully,
I. A. BRoUssARD,
Sheriff Lafayette Parrish.

nished by the Carencro string band.
The boys and girls of Lafayette who
attended speak in glowing terms OF
the hospitality of the Carencro club

Mr.. stevenson for Vice
President.

Washington Post.
The Democrats have made an
eminently respectable nomination
for the Vice Presidency. Mr..
Stevenson filed that high Office
with credit during Mr.. Cleveland's
second term. He was an excep-
tionally able presiding officer Of the
Sanate. Possessing tact and digni-
", he won aud held the respect and
admiration of the members Of that
body, who, upon his retirement.
united in testimonial of their aP-
probation of his honorable services.
His qualification for the office,
therefore, are established. In this
respect the Democrats are more
fortunate than the Republicans, for
Mr.. Roosevelt's most ardent cha mp
ions do not profess a belief in his
fitness for this particular Office, and
he himself, prior to the PhiladelPhla
| Convention, frankly avowcd thai
he was unsuited to the role. Ano
what is true Of the Vice Presidency
as between the two men likewise
holds good OF their respective
Qualifications for the higher Office
of Chief Executive.
From a partisan point of viev
Mr.. Stevenson's nomination mus
be considered good one, because
he. is Democrat. 1t is sign
like the subordinatiOn OF silver II
the platform, that the party is get
ting back to Democracy and ava
from Populism.

A. o. U. w.
To Meet In Lafayette ON Tues.
day, July 3l.-Large Number
of Delegates win be Here.

Two years ago at Little Rock,
Ark, upon the invitation of Mr..
Chas. o. Mouton, the Ancient Or
der of United Workmen selected
Lafayette as the place to hold the
first meeting of the State lodge to
be held in Louisiana. That meet
ing will take place on the 3Ist day
of this month. Previous to that
time the society was not large
enough in Louisiana to have State
lodge, but the Pelican State made
such a fine showing at Little Rock
that it was organized into a State
lodge. When the question came up
to select place of meeting num-
Der of Louisiana delegates presented
the claims of their respective towns
for recognition. The claims
of Alexandria, Baton Rouge,
New Iberia and Plaquemines
were put forth, but after a
warmly contested rivalry Mr.. c.
O. Mouton won the day and La
fsye.te was chosen. As a conse-
ouence of Mr.. Mouton's efforts on
behalf of this town the State lodge
will meet here on the 3Ist of July.
Every town Of any size in this State
will be represented by delegates
whose number will exceed seventy.
Some of the most prominent men OF
this State will be here on that day.
Naturally when Mr.. Mouton in
vited the lodge to meet here he felt
confident that this community
would help him to extend to the
visitors a cordial welcome. In this
we are satisfied he was not mis-
taken. We trust Lafayette will or
this occasion, as it has in the past,
give a good account of itself. The
necessity of creating a favorable
impression upon as large and res
pectable body of men as the State
lodge of A. o. U. w. should not Il
be overlooked.

To Open q Street to the School.
Messrs. Geo. DeBlanc, F. E.
Girard and Felix Demanade, men,
bers of the committee appointed by
the Council to open a street to the
Industrial School through the prop
critics Of Mrs. VIM. Campbell, ST.,
Mr.. Alex Mouton and DR.. F. r.
Tolson, have not been alto
gether successful in their work.
Mrs. Campbell offers to give
10 feet of ground for $3.50.
and the committee, consider
ing this proposition fair, will rec
ommend its acceptance. Dr. Toll
son offers to donate 10 feet. The
committee desires to secure SO feet
on the land of Mr.. Alex Mouton,
making the right of way 90 feet
wide. So far no agreement with
Mr. Mouton has been reached, the
terms proposed by the committee
not being satisfactory to that gen
tleman.

Prof E. l.. Stephens, president
of the Southwestern Louisiana In
dustrial Institute, of Lafayette, La,
was at the Cosmopolitan Hotel yes
terday. He has been to Baton
Rouge in the interest OF the State
appropriation, and is now returning
to the seat of the new institution.
The professor is well pleased with
the action of the State Legislature
in appropriating $45 .ooo- The IN
stitute needed more money than
that, but it will be able to make
good start Originally the allow
ance was $4,000. That was cut
down to $4,000, and later was
shaved to $45, 900.
A local tax in Lafayette parish OF
z mills for ten years will amount to
approximately $50, 900. The build
ing fund is fixed at $4,000. All
told, the State and local appropria-
tons for the institute reach the sum
of S14o, 900.

Il BRILLIANT EXA NIPPLE.

Shreveport is the most progressive
city in Louisiana. The citizens of
Shreveport have during the last
decade shown a most commendable
public-spirit and the result has been
that that city has forged to the
front rank Of the best towns in the
South.
Long ago the people of Shreve-
port have realized that no city
could make any Roadway without
the levying of taxes for public i'm
provements.
About two years ago in an edi-
torial advocating the Industrial
School movement The Gazette
called attention to the brilliant ex
ample of Shreveport. In that arti-
Gle it was shown how Shreveports
practical methods had been fruitful
of good results. If we remember
correctly Shreveport had given over
$500, 900 as bonuses to railroads.
Very large sums had been raised
for other Improvements. This
liberal policy has brought the city
forward with amazing rapidity.
Only fifteen years ago the city
handled 10000 bales of cotton:
now it handles over 100000 bales
Although the municipal tax i:
over forty mills the citizens of tina
city are about to vote on the propo
sition to issue bonds for additional
public improvements. We call thu
, attention of the men of Lafayette tc
the following article from thu
Shreveport Times:

BILL.

DILL.
The bill introduced by Senator
Henry, of Cameron, creating de.
partment of public health. passed
both branches of the Legislature
but was vetoed by the governor.
This bill was drawn up bv DR.. Fred
Mayer, secretary of the Louisi-
ana Sanitary Association. 1t was
strongly recommended by a number
Of scientific bodies and received the
endorsement of nearly every one
who looked into it's merits. 1t
passed the House and Senate by
handsome majoritles and though
it failed To receive executive sane
ton, Gov Heard was quick to re-
cognized its good qualities. as may
be seen by the following words
which accompanied his veto. He
said:

No. o., entitled an act to create q COM
mission of hygiene. etc. The demands
upon the treasury of the State for the en-
suing two years have been unusually great
and in the proper endeavois to hold the
numerous meritorious requests have been
reRretfully refused. This situation clearly
suggests the avoidance at this time to as
sumo all new obligations which could be
such obligations might appear. In my
opinion the safe limits of the appropriations
have been reached. Hence my declnation
to approve this bill.
AS is we'll known DR.. Mayer has,
fur number of years, devoted
much time and labor to- the study
of the hygienic science and to the
needs of the public regarding SAM
tation. Personal Investigations have
enabled him to gather data of thu
most authentic nature clearly es'

a State department whose mission
would be to disseminate among tn
