A GOOD

It has been suggested by a
number of people that the Bank
of Lafayette building would make
an excellent City Hall. and that.
if the Bank, which will erect a
new building soon, would sell at
a reasonable figure, the City
should acquire it. We think the
suggestion a good one; the build
ing is sufficiently large for the
present and for years to come, is
handsome enough to be a credit
to the town, and will answer the
purpose admirably. The ground
floor is just suited for Offices and
the large vault would protect the
CITY records in case of fire. The
second floor would serve well for
a court room and for meetings of
the Council.
It would be decidedly to the
advantage of the Bank to sell it,
and we have been informed that
the board of directors are willing
to be very reasonable. The mat.
ter should be taken up by the
Council at it's next meeting and
arranged if possible. Lafayette

City Council
Highly Praised
The Advertiser Contributes Strong
Testimony to the Wise and
Efficient Administration
OF City Affairs-Let the People
Read and Judge for Themselves

The Democrat offers below
several editorial expressions
made by the Lafayette Adver-
User last year on several matters
of public importance to the town.
AS these articles were written
carefully and deliberately before
the heat of battle, and evidently
for no political effect. we com
mend them to the people for con-
sideration just at this time, in
deadly parallel to the present
severe and unjust arraignment
of the Council by the same paper
and the advocates of the new
ticket,
If the new Council deserved so
much praise for the first year of
it's term it is entitled TO still
more credit for the second year
of administration now closing.
The Council has gone the first
year one better, and a statement
published in another article gives
the proof. Let every fair mind
ed citizen Judge for himself and,
as it WERE, appeal from Philip
drunk to Philip sober" from the
heated political expressions OF
today, to the calm and deliberate
Judgment uttered six months
ago.

However, we shall not Halter
ourselves because Of the unin-
territorial compliment to this pa
per: the purpose Of the unjust
comment preceding the repro
ductiOn of the editorials is too
plain that it is the design of the
article to show inconsistency and
blind partisanship on our part.
But we have no fear that
any intelligent, fair minded man
who has read our criticisms of
the present administration, will
for one moment believe so.
The Lafayette advertiser. [volume] (Vermilionville [i.e. Lafayette], La.) 1865-19??, 1907-02-20

In regard to our endorsement
of the suggestion that it would be
a good thing to buy the old bank
of Lafayette building for a city
hall, we are still of the same
opinion. but we want to call
special attention to two things in
the editorial quoted: first, IF
the bank would sell at a reason
able figure" and second that the
editorial appeared in the Adver-
tiser of Sept. IA, 1905.
In our opinion $500, the price
paid for the Bank of Lafayette
building. was not a reasonable
price,: in fact, we believe that
$4,000 would have been a good
price for the property, and we
base our estimate upon the fact
that last September the Clegg
property adjoining and on the
corner was exchanged for % ar
penis Of land and improvements
one milefrom Scott, whichcan now
be bought for less thanS30OO. Also
that the neighborhood is no
longer desirable as a business
location, witness the removal of
the Bank to the business street
of town. Further. that the build
ing is not suitable for a resi-
dence. And last. we are salts
! fed that had the Bank not sold
the building to the town, they
would, it is practically certain,
have either not have been able to
sell it at over $4,000 or else it
would have remained empty as
the Clegg building did. for an
indefinite period, unless they
chose to give it to somebody at
a nominal rent. Holding this
opinion, we believe the town
should not have paid over $4,000
(if they had had any authority to
buy it, which we will show fur
Their on they had not at the time
the purchase was made), not
withstanding the fact that a
similar building would have
cost over $4,000; for we do not
believe the town should pay
more than a thing is worth. Be.

very satisfactorily for a city hall,

The fact that The Democrat of
Feb. 10 gave the article a double
column head (which we have re-
duced to one column for lack of
space,J with bold type, when the
editorials contain SO little praise,
is indicative of one of two things,
either the present administration
is greatly in needofpraise, or else
they highly value even "a small
amount of commentator from

On yearly payments.

But it is the fact that the edi-
tOrial appeared in September
1905 that we wish to emphasize.
At that time there was nothing
in the way of the city acquiring
the building provided the Bank
was willing to sell at a reasonable
figure. But after April 2, 1906,
there was something in the way,
for on that date the Council
adopted an ordinance ordering
an election for May Is, 1906 to
take the sense of the property
taxpayers as to whether the town
of Lafayette should incur debts
and assure negotiable bonds
therefor and levy and assess
special taxes or the property of
said town in payment OF said
bonds and interest thereon" in
which ordinance the following
relating to a city hall is included:
SecOnd-TO incur Il debt of
five Thousand Dollars (S5O0O) for
the purpose of constructing in
said town, on land acquired by it
for such purpose, a city hall for
the use of said town, and to issue
the negotiables coupon bonds of
said town in the sum of Five
Thousand Dollars $4,000 ut 5 per
cent interest payable semi-annu-
ally; said bonds to run for and
be payable within % years.
In the notices OF election pub
lished in The Gazette suisse
quently the purpose of the cleo
ton was Summarized as follows:
500 900 for the construction OF
graded school buildings.
$4,000 for the construction Of a
city hall.
S35 900 for extensions and inn
provementS of the waterwOrkS
system and electric light plant Of
said town.
The ballot cast at the special
election held on May IS, 1906,
had printed on it the following
regarding a city hall:
FOR the proposition submitted
to the vote of the property lax
payers of the town of Lafayette
for the issue of $4,000 of bonds
for building a city hall by Ordi-
nance adopted on the second day
of April, 1906.
We call attention to the fact
thai the ordinance specifically
and uneQuivocally states that the
$1,000 debt was to be in
Cured for the purpose
of constructing in said town,
on land acquired by it for such pua'-
pose n city hall for the use of
said town and we again call atten-
ton to the summary inthe election
notice, $4,000 for the construction
of a city hall' and again to
the form of ballot cast" for build
ing a city hail."
Under this ordinance, notice of
election and form of ballot, we
submit that the Council had
absolutely no authority whatever
to buy either the Bank of Lafa-
building or any other building.
The words Constructing on land
acquired by it for such purpose"
the words construction of a city
hail." and the words, FOR build
ing a city hail." can under no
circumstances be twisted into
meaning to buy a building already
erected. And the Council can
not justify themselves by plead
ing that they could not have
built as good or suitable a CITY
hall for $4,000. The people voted
to incur a debt of $4,000 for the
purpose of constructing a city hall
on land acquired by the town.
and there was no discretion left
to the COuncil---it was their
plain duty to carry out the man.
date of the people expressed at

to do so merits extreme con-
domination.

Hurt by a Distant Blast.

Saturday, while laborers were
blasting stumps in section l of the
Tietun project, L. Swanson was
standing across the river from where
the work was going on, and while
watching the men set off a blast was
struck on the right side of his chest
and knocked unconscious. It has
since been ascertained that at least
one of his ribs was fractured, and
that he may be suffering from inter-
nal injuries, At present he is at the
sanitarium under surgical care.
The men at work on the stump
thought they were exerting all the
care necessary, and certainly had no
idea that any flying stones would
cross the river and do bodily injury.
A physician who examined Swanson
mmediately after he was struck,
said that II the piece of rick had
struck him on the other side of the
chest, over the heart, II would have
killed him.-Yakima Republic.
