Our Bank.

Though we have had a good deal
of fun, good naturedIy, polred at US
by our friends at a distance 10 regard
to our bank, we are more than graft
fed to be able 10 say that this desira-
BILE institution is now a reality with
US. The J. b. Watkins Banking
Company have erected an elegant
building for the purpose-such as
would grace the streets of any city, not
to say anything of our unpretentions
little town--on the corner Of Broad
and Hodges streets, and opened It for
business.
In giving our business men this
most desirable mercantile aid, this
company deserves the good will and
encouragement of our whole eommu-
nifty, and We hope will get it. Mr. J.
B. Watkins, the president of this
bank, is quiet, pleasant and
unassuming gentleman, but an inde-
fatigable worker. His unremitting
devotion to his gigantic enterprise,
now rapidly approaching completion
and realization, is destined to con
tribute to develope Lake Charles into
the most important and beautiful
town in the Southwest, and Calcasieu
parish into the richest and most pow
erful, as to wealth and population, in
the State.
Yes, friends, our bank is now a re-
ality, and the genial, efficient and
accommodating A. c. Gordon, cashier
will be found there, always ready to
respond to your business wants during
business hours, which are from Q a.
m. to 4 %. m.

Editor Lake Charles Echo
AS our town is increasing 80 rapid
" in population, and new wants
arising daily IN consequence, would i
not be well 10 amend its charter 70
suit the new conditionsf 1 believe
there are number of changes and
additions to its charter which, if
made, would 80 far 70 improve mat
ters greatly.
One year terms for Aldermen and
Mayor are too short, aRd Should be
lsngtbened to -four years, and elec.
tion fked for the same time for hold
ing the general State election. The
pumber Of aldermen should be in
creased to Al least eight. GOnstables
should be elected BY the people, in
stead " by the Board Of Aldermen,

ebanges, too many 70 be enumerated
here. which suggest themselves e

Some Of our good citizens find
their constitutional rights jcopsrdized
by the town ordinance requiring per
mits from the Mayor TO give enter

for opinions from our legal fraternity
upon the subject, Will they be kind
enough to give thcmf Tho Council,
further say, that the frequent occur
renee Of lawlessness at gatherings, and
there seeming to be no other relief or

Wants Information.

By a letter from Mr.. J. T. Mat
lock, of Bowie, Montague county,
Texas, we learn he desires TO move to
our town, and asks for information
from us as 10 our affairs, and in an
swer to which VIC say
The town Of Lake Charles is a good
business point, and as healthy as any
other town IN the Southwest Rents
of business and dwelling houses are
generally high, owing to the great de-
mand, and the general surroundings
extremely good--the town being sit
uated on the high grounds Of the east
bank of the Lake. Well water in
some portions of our town is very
good, but cistern water is preferred for
drinking purposes.
