THE CENSUS.
Population by Nards-GOOd Show
ing Made-lncrease OF fopsla-
ton Since the Year 1880.

The Gazette has received the
bulletin containing the census OF
Louisiana by parishes and wards.
The figures show that Lafayette has
not remained behind her sisters.
On the contrary, she has OutstripPed
many of them and been surpassed
by few When it is considered that
in area Lafayette parish is one of
the smallest in the State its incre ase
in population and its industrial
growth should be source of pride
to it's people.
In order that the reader may
have an idea of Lafayette's steady
growth during the last seven de-
cades and as a matter of historical
interest we append the following
table showing the aggregate popu'a-
ton as far back as 1880, in which
year the first census of the parish
was taken. eve believe the parish
was created in I823.)

proven most satisfactory, and the

To Promote the Cane Industry

A corporation has been organ
lied with the purpose of building
tramway through the parish inter-
secting the Southern Pacific near
the refinery and running North and
South from this point. Active
steps have been taken to- obtain the
necessary right of way from the
farmers through whose lands the
proposed road will pass. Such a
means of easy transportation of the
cane crop will undoubtedly develop
that great industry in Lafayette
parish. During the outgoing sea
son the cane raised here was not
adequate for the consumption OF
our local refineries. A great deal
of it was shipped to other parishes.
The road will run to the Csrencrc
district North aud in the direction
of the Verot place South We dc
not know the exact directions but
were informed that The above would
be about the sections visited. Ou'
soil is unsurpassed for the cultiva
ton or sugar cane. and this under
taking will, we hope, prove benefi
cial both to the farmers and the
company instrumental in its organ
ization.

was created in 1890

1t is not1ceab bic that there was a
falling Oft only between the census
year of 1910 and tn at of 1850. This
IS explained by the fact that Yer
million was carved out of Lafayette
parish during that decade. When
Lafayette parish was formed In
1929, it comprised all the territory
now making up the large and p"Pu-
lous parish OF Vermilion.
The bulletin that we have re-
ceived gives only the aggregate
population, white and black together.
and we have no way of finding out
at the present moment the proper
ton Of negroes after 1880, but 1t is
safe to say that the whites are
easily in the majority. Every CEN
sus from 1890 to 1880, excepting
that Of 800, shows the white peo-
pie largely IN the majority, which,
there is every reason to believe
has been greatly increased during
the last twenty years. That the
prevailing nativity is white it is
clearly evident. Lafayette has al
ways been a white parish and local
industrial conditions insure a con-
tinuation of Caucasian ascendency.
No doubt some of The Gazette's
readers will be glad to know how
much the various wards in the par.
, ish have advanced. In order that
all NAV better understand the fol.
lowing table attention is called te
the foot notes which are reproduced
exactly as they appeared In thu

Of 1870 and 1880, we have ascer-
tanned the population of the parish

citizens of the town. And should
any one happen to ask you the

as well give it in round numbers by
