HEALTH AND PLEASURE SEEKERS FLOCK
ING TO HYNSON SPRINGS.
lTeXarkana Times.l

(Texarkaua Times.)
Now that Gel. Hynson has his famous
Iron Mountain Springs thrown open to the
public, with the numerous improvements
which he has added since last summer,
health and pleasure seekers from all over
Texas as well as from Louisiana and ARK
ansas, are tlooking in there for the double
purpose Of enjoying the festivities and
having their health benefited by those
wonderful waters. The following are the
arrivals of one day-Monday of last week;
Messrs. Henry Allen and Ed. Gregg,
Marshall, Texas; S. Z. Perry, Miss Mary
Blocker, w. I. Geornan and Miss Linda
Afford, Dallas: II. B. Rasen, Miss +.

The Farmers Union.

This very important body of men
are to meet here in Convention to-mor-
row, Thursday May 9th, 1889. This
call has been regularly made by the
President, Mr.. j. NJ. Stallings, and
full list of delegates, will, no doubt,
he present.
Very important business is mapped
ont to be transacted, viz: to devise
means to defeat the objects Of the bag
ging trust, and to consider the advisa-
bility of packing cotton in small bales.
To accomplish the first of these pro-
positions will necessitate the charter
ing of factory or the building and
operating of one. The latter is by
far the best for the reason that it will
"unqnestionably pay handsome divi.
depds and the farmers will, instead of
being squeezed by the trust, share in
the profits of factory of which they
will be owners or part owners"
Then comes the selection of a place
for the factory-and right here let us
present the claims of Alexandra, pos
sessing as she does all that is neces
sary for the location of building Of
this kind. Our position, centrally To-
Gated as we are-none will deny that
it is first class; and as to being the
best shipping point in the State, none
will deny.
The Farmers who come here to-
morrow to attend the Convention, can
show their wisdom by naming Alexan-
dria as the place for the Factory of
the Farmers Union.

A New Route.

President w. A. Bright, of the
Houston, Central Arkansas and North,
ern Railroad, under date of Monroe,
La, May 4,h, 1889, has written here
to a prominent citizen as follows:
Dear Sir-I own your favor of April
9th, and note contents. In answer to
your question us to whether we have ill
any way changed our route" and ''is
Alexandria still to be our objective point
have to say that our Board Of Directors
are considering route to Marksviilc. in
Avoyelles Parish, thence follow the Bayon
Teche to st. Mar1insville, New Iberia and
Morgan City. This line is meeting with
some favor with our people for two or
three reasons. Morgan City being Il port
OF entry and some 400 miles nearer the
Central American States than New Or
leans, is very 'trong argument in favor OF
this line. We are also assured that all
the Parishes on this line will vote the
road five mill tax for ten years. l be-
lieve it is generally understood that Rap
ides will not. l will let you know, how
ever, if any positive change is decided
upon.
For our part, we are disposed to re-
gard the above as Il bluff-only this
and nothing mere. A better and short
err route than the one first selected,
viz: line from Pine Bluff, Arkan'
sas, to Alexandria, thence to Houston,
Texas, could pot be selected. AS to
giving aid to the road, Rapides will
do as much, if not more, than any To-
cality on the route. We are not in
cllned to believe that President Bright
will take the H., G. A. & N R. r.,
away from US.

Hear what "Catharine Cole" has
to say of us in her long and interest
ing letter from this place, published
in the Sundays Picayune:
Alexandria is a town that can truth
fully be said to be looking mp and to have
turned over new leaf III business way.
1t has an outlet for its commerce by means
of the river and by two railroads, while
half dozen other roads are projected to
the town. An ice factory has just been
completed, two planning mills, brick
yard. cotton compress, aud saw mill
are the present factory interests OF the
place. A handsome synagogue, Metho-
dist, Catholic and Episcopal church and
several colored churches, with three good
public and several private schools indi-
cate the moral standing of the people.
The stores are large and finely stocked
with goods. There are two excellent
newspapers, a fire company, bank and
good hotels and livery stables. 1t is both
/. cotton and sugar market and an ex-
cellent site for any of the factory inter
ests that ought to flourish in the South.
There are $500 good, honest, practical.
healthy people in this town. Their re-
cord in health, morals and education is an
excellent immigration document, and
within the next ten years they ought to
be good for factories, shops, mills and
such small industries as will increase their
wealth, comfort and popularity. On the
| banks of fine river in the heart of the
richest land, with inexhaustible forests
of pine and fair and fertile fields, with
bayous threading the hills and streams
coursiny by every farm, with soil that
is hostile only to the orange; with roses
everywhere, and an always summer sky
overhead, Alexandria can only fail Of be-
ing big, bustling, thriving town through
lack Of proper enterprise.

The NORTH AND SOUTH Road
Since the advent of the Police Jury of
our Parish in voting a bonus to the K.
G. w. & G.. H. R., has become gene
rally known, and We have heard moth
ing but words of approval, all joining
in the general opinion, that our parish
solons could not do less to assure the
prosperity of our parish. We are cred
ibly informed that work will begin on
the line before the LIST Of July, and
the road will then be pushed vigor-
ously to it's completion. A sense of
relief and universal satisfaction now
prevails; and Calcasieu is looking
forward to an early communication
with the great Western marts. The
advent of prominent man, who has
taken up his abode in our city, means
business. With this assured prospect
of direct communication with the
North we can confidently look to an
increased flow of immigration to Cal
casieu and Southwestern Louisiana
this fall. So mote it be- Lake
