A Foundry.

We have been asked if a foundry
would pay at this point, and we I'M
hesitatiDgly say that we see no reason
why such an enterprise as a tirst-class
foundry should not be remunerative
to its projectors. The nearest foun'
dries to Lake Charles are at Beaumont
and Orange, Texas, which we are in
formed are kept busy with work from
the local mills. If such be the case
Lake Charles, with a more extensive
milling business than either Beaumont
or Orange, together with numerous
cotton gins and several saw mills scat
tered throughout the parish, had Ger,
tainly ought to support a foundry
handsomely. At present our mill
men, when accidents happen to Their
machinery, either have to go to Hons
ton, Galveston or New Orleans, which
is too long distance and necessarily
entails great loss upon them, all OF
which would be obViated if there was
a foundry in Lake Charles.

AS predicted in our list issue we
have had several fine showers of rain,
which, so far as we have been able to
learn, were general in character, and
has allayed any uneasiness that ruight
have heretofore been entertained of a
drouth. Rice is now in splendid con-
dition, and the showers of the past
week have given new life to the cotton,
cane and sweet potato crops, the lat
ter of which will be the largest ever
raised in Calcasieu.

Now that we are to have Young
Mems Christian Association, why can
we not have reading room in Lake
Charles? We would gladly contribute
newspapers from our many exchanges,
and good library could be purchased
at a comparatively small cost per
capita. It would be much more profit
able for our young men to spend their
leisure hours in such resort than ~
bar rooms and loafng around the
street. A reading room would not
only keep our young men out Of mis-
Chief, but Il would open up an avenue
of learning which they would soon
learn to appreciate.
