The ST. Louis Times contains an ADVERTISE
ment from the Changers of the Ouachita,
through their chairman at Monroe, inviting
bids for the TIA importation of their freight and
passer gers for one year fiom the LIST of October,
on the Ouachita River and its tributaries We
do not know that a similar advertisement ap-
pears in any of the papers of this except the
Picayune; therefore we call attention to it.
It may interest our steam boatmen to know
that they have gone elsewhere to seek their
means of transportation.
The Changers, as an organization, are ma
tional, yet their primary object is for the
good of sections. They wish to encourage
agricultural and industrial interests and at
the same time protect them; therefore they
have combined together in an organization
that has become mighty and strong; they pos
sess the power to aid greatly all enterprises
connected in any manner with their interests,
and as transportation is one of the greatest
of them, they should be liberal in dealing
with it. We are one of those who believe
that home enterprises should receive every
aid and encouragement that can be given,
especially by those directly benefited.
In the Ouachita River we have ample trans
portation for all that it produces, owned by |
men who live here, spend their money here,
and who are directly interested in all tnat
promotes its interests, who are liberal, practi- |
cal and experienced. and who have, whenever |
opportunity offered, contributed to its ad |
vancement. Their boats were built for the |
trade, and are especially adapted for it; they |
are kept running the year round, although in |
many instances at pecuniary loss to them.
For all this they are deserving Of every con-
sideration at the hands of the Changers, as
well as others. They are their friends, appre-
ciate their wants and necessities, and are as
well prepared to aid. them as could possibly |
be their competitors from any other quarter. |
Competition is the Life of trade, a fact that no |
one is bet er acquainted with than our steam
boatmen, and in inviting it, they should lean
TO the side of those whose interests are more |
directly identified with them.
The Oriole leaves daily at 10 A. NJ, Sunday |
