Bob BrOussard's Defiance.

| What seems to have been decidedly
the largest and most successful mass
meeting Of the pending Democratic
| primary campaign was held at New
Iberia last Wednesday in the interest
| of Mr.. Wilkinson and the local can.
| didates training with the Wilkinson
| Broussard combination. According
| to the New Orleans Picayune con-
servative estimate would place the at
tendance at 5000 persons, while the
Times Democrat figured it "at least
5000." Speeches were made by Hons.
Theodore S. Wilkinson, John NJ. Par
ker, r. F. Broussard and Judge A.
V. Coco, and they were all pretty
good speeches, too-that is, as Demo-
cratic speeches go.
The bright particular oratorical
star of the occasion, whose effulgence
outshone even that of the guberna-
toriaI luminary himself, was Con-
gresham Broussard = everybody's
"Coozan Bob, whose recent declara-
ton of his attitude with reference to
the aspirants for governor caused re-
ioicing in the camp of the farmer cam
didate from Plaquemines and corre-
spending ehagrin and CONSERVATION
among the myrmidons of the boy or
ator of the pellucid Teche.
This being his first public talk of
the campaign, Mr.. Broussard turned
himself loose, so to speak, and what
he did for Wilkinson and against
Sanders was plenty. II The Chief
wasn't a Republican paper and sup
porting Frank Williams for gov
ernor, it would be tempted to charac-
terize the eloquent young Creole con-
CHEESEMAN'S effort as a corker and
sockdolager, but of course it isn't in
accord with the ethics of political news
papering as interpreted in Louisiana
to make any such admission concern
ing the speech of man who doesn't
belong to our party and isn't sup
porting the same fellow we are.
One of the most significant cross
counters in Mr.. Broussard's straight
from-the- shoulder onslaught was this:
First it is limited, then threatened. whether
with or-without the assent of Mr.. Sanders do
not know nor does it matter that the success of
the candidacy of MIR. Sanders means my retire
ment from the public service. The challenge is
squarely given and I accept it, and tell them
that my retirement depends not upon them but
upon you, my countrymen. However, should
that retirement come, let them be assured that
it viii not find me anliable and submissive but
stubborn and unyielding returning
blow for blow. and falling. if fan do, in the
thickest of the fray.
There's filing for Sanders pipes
that ought to keep them busy smoking
for while!

onenine of PUBLIC Schools.

The DonaldsonVille High School
opened for the session of 1908 last
Monday morning with an enrolment
of AT pupils, as compared with AL
enrolled on the opening day last year.
The exercises incidental to the occa-
sion consisted of several vocal selec-
tions by the pupils in chorus, with
Miss Leda Landry as piano accom-
PIANIST; an eloquent prayer by Rev.
E. P. Craddock. pastor of the local
Methodist church, and interesting adj
dresses by Principal j. L. Rusca and
Parish Superintendent D. B. Sho-
walter. Following is the faculty of
the institution for the current session:
Prof. J. l.. Rusea. principal; Misses
Leda Landry and Jennie May, as
sistants in high school department;
Miss Herminie Nicaud, eighth grade;
Miss Louise Subra, seventh grade;
Miss Jeanne Landry, sixth grade;
Miss Maude Leche, fifth grade; Miss
Katie Bigley, fourth and fifth grades;
Miss Ora Dalferes, fourth grade; Miss
Fannie d. Rohb book, third grade; Miss
Mamie Turner, first and third grades;
Miss Jessie johnson, second grade;
Miss Berta Green, first grade; Mrs.
M. 0. Tusson, primary grade. It is
expected that the attend ance of pupils
will reach at least 500 during the
term.
The schools in wards one, two,
three, four, five and six also opened
last Monday with a full corps of
teachers and under favorable au-
spices. Seventh and eighth ward
schools will not get under way until
Monday, Oct 81, owing to the fact
that the school children of that sec
ton are called upon to assist their
parents in the work of harvesting the
cotton crop, which is not completed
until the latter part of October.
All of the schools throughout the
parish have been carefully graded
and provided with efficient teachers,
and most excellent results may be an
ticipated.
Superintendent Showalter announces
that a parish teachers institute will
be held at Donaldsonville during the
week beginning Monday, Oct. 81.

Gus. P. MeIarcon.

Through the medium of a card ap-
pearing elsewhere in today's Chief,
Gus. P. Melancon makes formal an
nouneement of his candidacy for clerk
of court, subject to the action of the
Democratic party. Mr.. Me1aneon is
entirely too well and generally known
in Ascension to need introduction or
warrant comment at our hands. He is
a prominent and popular young Creole
residing in the Smoke Bend settlement
in the second ward, sugar boiler of
wide reputation and conspicuous abil.
ity, a successful business man, d pro-
gressive citizen and loyal aud gen
erous friend. His qualifications for
the Office to which he aspires are gen.
orally recognized, and it may be taken
for granted that he will make a splen-
did showing in the approaching pri-
mary.

Gen. Jastremski seems to be-the only
gubernatorial candidate who cares to
handle the subject of the state tax de.
falcations in New Orleans, and even
he does 1t with gloves on. The gen.
era1 says that there ought to be but
one tax collector in Orleans par
ish instead of seven, and he's right as
far as he goes, but he doesn't go far
enough. To effect a complete reforma-
ton of present deficiencies and abuses
in the tax collecting system means
should be devised to compel collectors
to give personal attention to their
Official duties, and to have frequent
and competent Investigations OF their
books and funds.

The Times owes an apology to the White
Castilian for having accused the DonaldsonviIle
Chief of being the only Republican paper pub
1ished in Louisiana. We are informed that the
White Castilian is staunch Republican paper.
We are likewise informed that like the esteemed
Chief, it is boosting Colonel Wilkinson for
governors Shreveport Times.
And now the esteemed Times owes a
couple more apologies, because the
White Castilian declares that it quit
being q Republican paper several
years ago, and The Chief isn't boost
ing Wilkinson for governor.

Billy Hearst is quoted as having
declared within the past few days that
he is not seeking, doesn't want and
wouldn't accept a nomination to the
presidency. That's about the best
thing Billy has ever said, and if he
sticks to it we shan't call him nearly
as bad fellow as he is.
