RELIABLE WATER NEWS.

The Vicksburg Herald with Its
usual reliability on highwater af-
fairs givesits readers Tuesday last,
the following:
TALLULAH. Ia, Oct. 4.-Ons of
the largest meetings of representa-
tive men ever held in this Parish
assembled at Tallulah to-day, it
being composed principally of land
owners and planters.
4 x K = X
The report of the committee,
which recommended an earnest sup.
port TO the prompt payment of both
the cotton and land taxes, was
adopted. The result of the meet
ing, no doubt, insures the building
of the levee of the 9th leyee dis
trict.
From these extracts the rea der
would naturally suppose that ev-
crything was lovely. In another
place in the Times will be found
the resolution, (Which does not
mention the cotton or land tax J
that was adopted, and also what it
took to make % one Of the largest
meetings ETC." There is no use in
shutting our eyes to the facts. The
meeting was disgracefully small;
the vote on the resolution was a.
larmingly close, and the adoption
Of the resolution amounts to moth
ing. The special of the Herald is
ridiculous and misleading. Even
the committee that got up the res
oluaon is not given right in the
Herald. Maj. Lucas is given as
one OF the committee when it
should be,as matter of fact, A. X.
montgomery. The Herald gene:-
ally gets Madison Parish affairs all
oungled, yet the people of this
Parish continue to rely on it for in
formation, in regard to the affairs
OF this parish. Young men may
have time to outgrow the errors
they absorb through the Herald.
In the course of time, but men
getting along in years have no
ume to spare, and should seek in
formation about home affairs from
amore reliable source-especially
water news.

TAX PAYEaS MEETING

The tax payers met in mas:
meeting on Monday last. Mr.. G
| /. Boncy in the chair, and Mr.. a
{. Monette Secretary. Capt. John
B. Stone of the committee appoint
ell to attend the meeting of the
Levee Board reported verbally, to
the effect that the Board stood
firm, and proposed to enforce the
collection Of both the cotton and
land tax. Maj. Geo. C.. Waddiil
representing the Levee Board
made statement in which he said
that there was nothing to look to
for protection from overflow eX-
cept the Levee Commission. II was
the only law we had to 90 by, and
the Board could do nothing but en-
force the collection of the cotton
and land tax, they had no other
course to pursue. He stated that
much of the opposition had ceased,
and that he thought the good bus
mess sense of the people would
recognize the importance of the
issue, and support the Board in It's
efforts to protect the district from
overflow, which was ruin. Mr..
Geo. W. Montgomery was in favor
of the bill creating the Board, that
he objected to some features of it,
but that it was too late to do any,
thing else now, and he favored
paying the taxes levied by the
Board. Mr.. Gilfoil agreed with
Mr.. Montgomery, and argued in
favor Of paying the taxes. Capt.
JnO. B. Stone argued against the
bill and the taxes, declaring it and
them, to be unconstitutional, and
Illegal. Judge Farrar supported
the bill, and the taxes.
Mr.. Erwin presented a set of
resolutions which were read oppos-
ing the taxes levied by the Board,
and proposing a ten mill tax on all
taxable property for five years.
Mr.. Gilfoil moved to table the
resolutions but the motion was
lost. Gen. Frank Morey then ad-
dressed the meeting. He was in
favor of some plan, by which, in
the event of the law creating the
Levee Commission being decided
unconstitutional, money could be
raised to build levees. The whole
matter was finally referred to
committee of five, and the meeting
took a recess,
On reassembling the committee
of five reported through Mr.. Max
well as follows:
Resolved, by the tax payers of
Madison parish, in mass meeting
assembled, that We will yield cur
earnest support to all proper meas
ures, for the protection OF our par
ish and district from inundation.
and we will cheerfully pay all legal
taxes assessed for the purpose of
bull ding our levees.
F. L. maxwell.

Mr.. De Moss read a petition pro-
testing against the cotton and land
tax, signed by nineteen persons.
Capt. Stone offered as a substi
tute for the resolution Of the COM
mittee the resolutions of Mr.. Err
win.
Mr.. Gilfoil moved to table the
substitute, carried by a vote of II
to 8, after which the resolution of

Dakota RaiIrOds.

Tho Dakota board Of railroad commissioners
in ther second annual report just issued, refer
to the transit system as wrong in principle,
aud urge the legislature to secure its abatement
in Dakota. The increase in mileage in tho
territory amounts to 5t7.77 miles, divided as
follows: Burlington, Cedar Rapids L North
ern. $50; Minneapolis & Pacific, 1854; Ere
mont, Elkhorn Il Missouri Valley, $3.50; North
ern Pacific, 1920; Milwaukee, 1860; North
western, 7l.03; Manitoba, 163.40. The gross
earning Of the roads operating in Dakota are
given at $7e, ,9S8, 1858, and the operating ex-
penses at $45.8S7,416: the territorial propor-
tions being respectively 50, 73S, ,732 and $6,572,
lob. Tho heaviest shipments reported are:
Grain, 4,Sl7,605 pounds; lumber, 1886, $40;
coal, 1850, 762. The report points out that the
rule requiring farmers to load car lots of grain
within certain time after the cars are placed
at their disposal, deprlves those living at dis-
tance from stations Of the'ihtended benefit of
the car lot law, and suggests that system of
wheat storage receipts be adopted compelling
elevators to deliver the storage wheat on de-
mand. Such receipt would be negotiable,
and would relieve farmers of the present me-
cessity Of accepting prices Of local dealers for
grain. The number Of elevators is given at
2O6 and Of warehouses 81, in North Dakota;
in South Dakota 1873 elevators and 252 ware.
houses; total capacity, lS,SS2,O0O bushels.

Notwithstanding the blizzard Of last Thurs
day, good number Of friends gathered on that
day at the home Of Mr.. and Mrs. S. D. Curry to
attend the marriage Of their eldest daughter,
Ella, to Mr.. G. G. Boise.
Joyously rang out the wedding bells, as they
always do and always will till time shall grow
old, and there ceases to be those to marry and
be given In marriage.
The ceremony was PERFORMED by Rev. j. 81.
Baldwin in an impressive manner, with few
we'll chosen words. A prayer Of benediction
was then offered by Rev. e. S. Preston.
After few moments spent In congratula-
tions, the attention Of the company was called
to bountiful and well appointed repast, to
which ample justice was done by the friends,
who had come in the sharp, appetizing Dakota
air to be present on this eventful occasion.
Following the feast Of good things came the
STOW Of soul," till the declining orb Of day re-.
called the company to home duties. The only
thing to detract from the entire success of the
occasion, was the fact that many Of the invited
friends were detained at home by the inclem-
ency Of the weather.
Mr.. and Mrs. Boise left in the evening for
St Paul, where they will visit friends, and then
return to make their home among us.
Many tokens Of the high regard in which
Mr.. and Mrs. Boise are held, were given by
the friends present, united with their earnest
wish that they may enjoy long, useful, pros
porous and happy welded life.
