The Ouachita telegraph. [volume] (Monroe, La.) 1865-1889, 1885-08-22

The Texas Pacific Railroad owns Il
very valuable bridge across the A,cha-
f,lay a river, which has entirely es-
capcd assessment, and in all the
parishes the road bed is under valued
in the assessment. We agree with the
Natchitoches Review in the opinion
that if something is not done soon to
control This railroad corporation, it will
control the State. So far, il has been
able to escape paying fair proportion
of taxes on the valuable property and
franchises which ii owns in this State.
Tho untaXcd bridge we mention above
is itself worth far more than the total
railronu assessment in the three par
ishes of Avoycllcs, Point Coupce and
West Baton Rouge. Not only do the
railroads fail To pay just proportion of
taxes, they invade and ignore the
rights of the people in many respects.
10 this parish, with the exception OF q
small locality, the Texas Pacific Rail
road is n curse. Louisiana is sadly in
need of considerable railroad lcgisla-
ton: but unless there ia Il change of
conduct affecting the railroads. on the
part of New Orleans Representatives, in
the Legislature, we can scarcely hope
for the rrformatory legislation on this
subject, which is 50 much desired by
the country. The Now Orleans dcic-
CATION in the House of Representatives

bers and n half dozen of the other coun-
try members, can defeat any bill

LOW PRICES FOR COTTON.
Augusta, Ga, News.

Indications and reports multiply to
tho effect that the cotton crop this year
is in remarkably fine condition, and
that the largest crop ever known will
be produced. Those in position to
know, and who annually make careful
computations of the crop, place the
yield this season at not less than seven
million bales, while some very careful
and reliable statislicians even anticipate
a half-million bales above that figure.
Nothing now, it seems, can possibly
occur to prevent the production OF an
enormous crop.
1t is interesting, says the Savannah
Times, in view of these facts, TO specu-
late upon the probable course of prices.
This large crop will come right on the
heels Of two, comparatively speaking,
short yields. The crop for the year
ending August 81, 1881, was 5,7l3,OOo
bales, while that for the year ending
on the 3lst inst. is placed ut 100000
bales. And yet, notwithstanding these
two short crops following each other in
succession, we have seen the market
gluttcd with cotton goods to such an
extent that the mills of the country
have been forced TO cut down produc-
ton and wages, and to day the business
is exceedingly stagnant.
With a seven million bale crop now
coming ON it is not reasonable to eX-
poet anything like past high prices for
the great Southern staple this season.
We may expect to hear reports of raw
ages by calerpilars, rust and storms,
and no doubt efforts will be made from
time to time to create the impression
that the yield has been materially re-
ducod from first calculations. These
reports will be started by spectators
who want to "bulP' the market, and
by farmers who Imagine that prices
will be thereby stimulated. Neither,
however, will have any lasting effect.
Thc business centres of the world will
regulate the market voluc of the staple
and the law of supply and demand will
finally decide tho matter. Even if tho
yield is cut Off in some localities, it will
be unusually fine in others so the
general average will be good, and the
seven million bales will exercise their
due influence.
The day has passed for small cotton
crops. Each year the cotton area is be-
ing increased, and in much greater pro
portion than tho wants of the world
for cotton goods. Already anything
less than 6, OO0, 900 bales is considered a
short yield, and it will not be many
years before 100000 bales will be the
average production. Hereafter it is
more than probable that eight cents n
pound will be the best price the planter
can reasonably hope for. When this
fact is fully realized, and our farmers
make their calculations to that end,
the whole South Will be decidedly
benefited. The farmer will then give
his first attention to supplies of tn"
homo and farm, and his cotton will be
Il surplus crop which will yield him an
almost clear profit at even much
lower rate. And then the larger the
crop tho better, for As cotton will al
ways command ready sale, and will be
a cash crop, the more there is Of it, the
more money will there be in circula-
ton 10 stimulate and keep the wheels
of business actively revolving.

EOrses' Memory,

4 couple Of years ago a gentleman in
Providence owned a gray horse that was
used in the family ~ himself, his wife and
children. Il was made quite a pet Of.
Finding that it could speed quite sharp, he
entered in q number o. country races, in the
end getting a record Of 81 for it. Then
he sold il. Later en-, the children missed
il so much that he endesvored TO get track
Of it, and sent TO q number of places, but
failed to find it. \ couple of DAYS ago
he was on Washington street aud his atten-
ton was attracted by little gray PAGER that
came whirling down. He had never seen
his gray pace, but he was sure this was his
old pet, and when opportunity offered he
drove alongside and called it by name. The
pony knew him at once, and gave unmis-
taxable evidence OF recognition.
Another instance showing the memory OF
the horse is that Of the PAGER purchased by
Mr.. Lloyd last year ola Winsted gentleman.
A few weeks ago the former owner was In
town and vent up to see Ginger. The
horses present attendant was in the box
stall petting him when his old master
stepped in and called him by name. The
horse no sooner heard his voice than he for
sock his companion and showed his delight
at meeting his former owner in various
WAYS, among other tricks going into his
coat pockets for the deicscies that he used
to find there. The gentleman asked him to
roll over for him and he went down upon
the straw and over in a moment. Mr..
Lloyd's health prevents his showing Ginger
much this winter, but it is generally con.
ceded that the handsome little horse would
make it quite interesting for the best of the
trOfters.

A Little Hero.

There are some interesting side points
relative to Frnk's poor, starved babies, who
wandered away in the hills Of Aehama,
Sunday morning, which was previously
published in the News. They were not
found till Monday noon. \ shepherd dog,
which was o household f~avorite, followed
and guarded them during the long, dark
hours, when the rain came Increasingly
down. No doubt the faithful creature pro-
tected them from the many wild animals in
the deep woods.
But the heroic deed of the other child,
which the wires failed to correctly record,
remains to be added. He took his own lit
tie coat from his shiyering body and put it
on his weaker brother, saving him from
freezing, while he endured, in 8 cotton
shirt, hours after hours, the keen blasts OF
that mountain storm. Think of this from a
child of but six years old, and let any who
can say he is not as much OF q hero as any
of the fullgrown Spartans of old, of whom
the classics so eloquently tell.

The Dogs Fate.

Lovisrls Tslsgra'n 10 the PatsSurQ Dispaeh.
William Adams, who killed his sweet.
heart and committed suicide near Shelby
vile on Sunday, was buried near that city
yesterday. Adams owned q pet dog, which
wa an insepsrsble companion in his moody
wanderings. After his remains had been
taken to his home his dog stationed him
self close beside the body ofhis dead master,
and refused to be driven away. Just
before the funeral the dog was locked up
in a barn. After the interment q brother
of Adams went to the barn to release the
dog, but found that it had burrowed q hole
in under the walls of the building aud es-
CAPPED. As the animal could not be found
anywhere about the place. q visit was made
to the nsw-msde grave. There it was folnd
stone dead in q shallow hole it had dug be-
side the praye.

Practical Advice From One Who Knows

the brilliantly bad players would rather
lose two by tricks if they had made all the
tricks of their side, than win two If their
partner bad taken the iou's share. Now

To do this you must watch this play and he
must play according to the established
principles Of the game. 1t follows, since

according 10 the established principles,
But players of this type 5hea boast that
they know no rules Of play, and apart
from such bosstiDg, everyone who
as ever played with them knows that their
play denies all rule. Others claim to know
the principles of play, but are guilty all the
same of whist euormities of the deepest dye
aud they can never see how their false
play affects the result. To give an example
