What is the matter with our rail-
road management that they can't fur
nish cars for the transportation of our
lumberf Constant complaint is being
made by our mill men that the bust
ness season is fast passing away and
they are unable to get cars to move
the lumber as fast as ordered. This
will work to the serious injury of a
class of our citizens who are doing
more to build up paying business for
the railroad that traverses our parish
than all others combined, and it is
suicidal policy to do anything to Grip
pie this industry.

MIR. II. P. Penninger, of Babb's
Bridge, Rapides parish, was in town
this week attending court, and as he
always does, came in to see the Echo.
Mr. P. informs us that the people Of
Rapides, or at least that section of it
in which he lives, did not suffer as
much from the excessive rains as was
anticipated. The cotton crop how
ever, is short on that account, but
plenty Of corn, potatoes, rice, sugar
cane, peas and. such other crops as go
to make acountry self-sustaining have
been raised, and that the condition Of
the people, as a general thing, is bet
ter than it was at this period of the
past year. Thus the good news comes
in from all parts of the State, and we
are happy TO chronicle these facts
which show an increase in the States
prosperity.
