A writer i'll the Assumption Pic
neer lately formed himself into IL
committee of five, aud interviewed
the officers of the Morgan Railroad
company in reference to extending
the Thibodaux branch road to Ma
poleonville and PaincourtvilIe.
His interview did not promise much,
but was told to make the Railroad
au offer that would be taken into
consideration:
The pecl,Ie OF this town tried in
terviews aud consultations for sew
efal wears to ob alma blanch road
o This place but without avail.
Finally they dropped interviews
and went to the company with an
offer Of the right of way, a good
aud eli-i5le depot site, and Il bonus,
of $4,000 cash, and would have
had the branch in operation within
three months, had not the yellow
fever epidemic of 1878 de aged the
work for two or three months.
The branch is worth to Thibo
daux the amount of the bonus l,aiu,
annually.
l: our Assumption neightof> de
sire u railroad they must stop in
terviews and talk business.
Owing to tue stage OF the water
in the bayou, aud the prospect
ahead it is very likely that u branch
t, Paincourtvilie in this year OF our
Lord 1885, woun be worth enough
to pay q bonus at $25,OOD to the
people Of Assumption.
The value of il Railroad is not
known nor Appreciated until II Is
once tried.
In the same interview it Is sta
ted that the railroad agents cOn
tended that the Thibodaux branch
did not pay u5lA Il >n,all portion of
the year.
1t it does nnt, il is mos; decided
IL the fault oi the managers Of the
road as raj he readily demonstia

town and vicinity.

LEVEES

To assert that the present levee
laws in Louisiana are efficient to
protect the State from lnnndation.
at any period when the Mississippi
River rises above an ordinary dan
ger level is q bold assumption, that
few men of sound mind will dare
to maintain.
When the old levce ordinances
were repealed aud the adoption of
Il law creating a levee board of com
m%lssioners, which board was to
assume charge Of all levees within
the State, and handle the taxes col
lected, the law makers committed
a folly that has been unsurpassed
by any OF the many dlsgraceful
acts that Louisiana Legislators have
formed into laws since 1865.
Under the anti.bellum system
there was power 10 the courts to
maintain, repair, and build levees,
aud although crevasses did occur,
it was All unfortunate circumstan
ce, that could not easily have been
toresecn, and for which some one
suffered severely.
Can II system similar to the old
one be- adopted ! That is the ques
ton to be agitated.
Thousands of dollars are spent all
nuaIly.
The State laws will not compel a
land owner to repair his levee, but,
in reality, in so many words, tells
him, that ii he lets his levee wash
away, and whilst raising his low
lands by deposit, he browns the
crops of hundreds of his industri
Gus neighbors, the State will then
build him a ncw one, and paw for it
with taxes paid by citizens who
keep their own levees iu safe condi
ton.
Stupid as such legislation may be
yet it is exactly what Louisiana
Legislators have oone. Then, in or
der to screen the f%oolishpess of their
own acts, they strive to hide them
selves behind a law placing the
maintainance aud repairs of com
pleted levees in the care Of the pc
lice juries of the parishes, from
which bodies they have taken all
power to compel the people tc keep
their levees in safe condition.
Something must be done, to pre-
vent these disastrous %overllows, or
else all the valuable lands
will become the abode OF alligators
and offers.
Steps should be taken by the PEG
pie of those sections of Louisiana Ii
able to i%nundatiou to prepare laws
for adoption by the legislature when
it meets again, that will cover the Oh
ject desired, and put in force a sys
tenn that will, at least, work to
much better advantage than the
present one.
This should be done at an earl,
date. When the lawmakers meet
it will BIZ too late: The time for &C
ton is to-day, not tomorrow.
Take care of your LIVER. A great
number of the diseases to which mankind
are liable arise from u disordered condi-
ton of this organ. Keep it in a sound
aud healthy condition and you defy dis
ease. Prickly Ash Bitters are especially
adapted for this purpose, being composed
of drugs which act on the Liver, giving it
tone and strength to withstand malaria.
