sible with the means available to maintain
them, and SO far as tho State, the pro-
prietor, has required them to be built and
maintained during the past five years,
which, "a is now evident, was much be-
You'd the States ability promptly TO pay for.
We have in all respects faithfully COM
piled with the terms OF Our contract, and
performed much more than of right We
could or should have been required 10 do as
such contractor. and we clam that in no
particular have We desefvedly forfeited the
confidence and esteem of the public. 1t
has become the fashion to abuse the Levee
Company; to villify, nisrepresent and SLAM
der IT without right. cause or reason; ponu-
lar clamor and prejudice seems to demand
| it, but, so far az we know, every investiga-
ton OF its affairs has failed TO Justify or fur
nish any grounds Tor such abuse.
Certain it is that. until the general gov
eminent comes to the relief OF Louisiana
| no other method SO economical to the tax
! payer for securing even the partial prutec-
ton which alone the State eau provide for,
can be devised. II the public think other.
| wise, We are willing to withdraw as soon as
| the indebtedness OF tho State to us for work
done il liqudated.
would now respectfully call public at
| tentIon to the following resolution, unanim-
| ously apopted by the board of directors at
| t0tic regular monthly meeting, held No
Vember 9, 1873, as an expression of the
views and purposes of this company:
| WHEREAS, The Louisiana Leyee Company
is Hnable to build all the levees Of the State
out of the taxes assessed and collected for
that purpose, more particularly as large
amounts have been deducted from said col.
| lection to meet the Curren0 wants OF the
| State aud "a commissions to assessors and
tax Collectors, under construction of the
law deemed by us errcn eous. and even in
direct conflict with the act ircorr rating
| this company; and
"Whereas, 1t is the desire of THIS bard
that TIE United States government b. II
take entire charge and control Of all .he
levees OF the State; be it, therefore,
"RcS0toea, That this board will use all its
| influence to induce the general governments
assume control OF all the levees of the State
of Louisiana, and in case such action be
| taken by Congress, the Louisiana Levee
Company will surrenner all the rights, ttlet
and franchises conferred upon it by the act
incorporating said company; provided. tina
the State OF Louisiana makes a just ant
equitable settlement of the sums duo sait
company at that date for repairs upon ant
construction of levees as per contract
