says:
Tie line Of telegraph :rom New Orleans
to Southwest Pass. and belonging to the
Ocean Towboat Company. will be complete
in three OF four days The work OF con.
struction on this line has been rapidly and
thoroughly done. Everything to make it
complete has been observed.
This line Of telegraph has been established
by the Ocean Towboat Company, which is
opposition to the Good Intent Tcwboat
Company. and it is one of those improve
ments that will prove of more than local
Importance. At any rate. its construction
IS hailed with pleasure by the people of the
lower coast. They accept it as q local graft
acation as vel! rs knowing that it is in the
interest OF trade. They know also that it
will be a line OF communication that is not
one OF inso!ence and extortiou.
