JUTE AND RAMrE.

The cultivation of jute and ramie
in Louisiana is to begin in earnest
this year. The charter of regu-
larly organized company is pub
lished in the New Orleans papers,
which processes to have 500, 900
capital to encourage the planting
"cultivating and utilization of ra-
mie and jute, and their adaptation
as fiber to the manufacture of
fabrics of public utility and adj
vantage; buying and selling roots,
seed or bark; leasing or buying
land lying within this State for
cultivating the plants, roots or seed
of ramie and jute; to contract with
planter or farmer to supply and
furnish roots of ramie and jute
and to encourage the cultivation of
the same throughout the State; to
purchase or to vend machines, in
ventions or patents for the decor
tication or preparation of said
plants for manufacturing purposes;
to buy or sell crude bark; to treat
and prepare crude bark of ramie
or jute by chemical process or
otherwise, and to sell the right to
use the chemical process in the
city of New Orleans and elsewhere
in the State of Louisiana, and to
make, buy and sell machines for
decorticating, to be used in this
State" The estimated profits of
raising jute and ramie, as COM
pared with cotton, is five or six
times as great ON the former, and
it seems to us that this fact alone
should be a sufficient incentive to
our farmers to give it trial; but
when we consider the uncertainty
attending cotton crop. as wel as
the price it may bring, the induce
ments are tenfold. Another point
which we urge is that those early
in the field will reap the richest
harvest. This is always the case
with new agricultural product
as witness the fortunes made by
those who first engaged In the
cultivation of hemp, fax, hops,
currants, etc. So it will be in this
instance. Ten years hence jute
and ramie may be- as generally
raised in Louisiana as cotton, and
the profits on it may become 80
lowered by competition as to be
but little if any greater than on
the fleecy staple, but for several
years it is certainly going to be a
money making business, and we
advise all who can possibly do SO
to make start toward its cultiva-
ton. For the encouragement of
others we will state that Capt.
Nash, of this town, has already
made arrangements to secure ramie
roots enough to plant an acre.

Though three hundred miles
from Colfax, my late home, I note
with great interest the various
happenings there as recorded in

to see how much good prohibition
is accomplishing for Grant, and to
see among its friends some who
from sad experience and from cool
observation know the evils of CIV
ing the people too easy access to
liquor. / have an honest and earn
est love for many of the Colfax
people as well as for those IN other
parts of the parish, and. ! honor
them for their big-souled effort to
save the boys and the girls of the
country from the ruinous effects of
general traffic in strong drink.
Some of our red faced friends
back there are among the truest of
the true; and, if they could be
induced to let intoxicating drinks
alone, would greatly multiply their
Echances for usefulness and happi-
mesa There is something 80 jovial
and winsome about them that it is
hard to scold them for it, but a
spirit of unmixed friendship and
goodwill moves me to beg them to
let up, and thus give the cause of
temperance lift It was not count
ing on. God bless and save the
people. v. G. CUNNINGHAM.

There is somewhat of contrast
between the cases of Ford and
Murphy and that Of Mary Domingo.
A great howl goes up in behalf Of
the two red-handed murderers,
while nothing is said in behalf of
Mary, weak woman, who has
been convicted of manslaughter for
killing drunken negro brute, who
had taken forcible possession of
her house, threatening to kill her,
and at the time he was killed was
endeavoring to put his threat into
execution. It looks as though the
people of New Orleans have mud
died ideas as to what constitutes
justifable homicide.

The Colfax CHRONICLE urges a
detection of the proposed railroad,
designed to. run South from st.
Louis via Monroe to connect with
the systems entering New Orleans.
By passing from Alexandria up
the west bank of Red river to
bayou Darro, thence due north and
by way of WINFIELD to Monroe, it
would run through q rich alluvial
country, free from overflow, and
avoid serious hill obstacles. The
CHRONICLES reasons for the change
of route appear sound. City Item.
Bro. Goodwin of the Colfax
CHRONICLE, in an able article, takes
pretty much the same view that we
take, concerning the North and
South railroad. He thinks as we
do, that the road should run
through Grant and Winn parishes,
extending northward through the
State. We are creditably inform
ed, that it is the intention of the
company Incorporated at Homer,
with their domicile at Gibbs, La,
to build road along this route.
They expect to secure the assist
ance that will make this road q
certainty. We shall have more to
say concerning this road hereaf-
