per- will be pleased to learn that there is
at least one dreaded disease that science
has been able to cure in all its stages,
and that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure
is the only positive cure now known to
the medical fraternity. Catarrh being a
constitutional disease. requires consti-
tutiOnal treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure
is taken internally, acting directly upon
the blood and mucous surfaces Of the sys-
tenn. thereby destroying the foundation
of the disease, and giving the patent
strength by building up the constitution

cure. Send for lists of testimonials.

The Provosty Levee Law.

The POinte COupee Democrat cOIhmen-
ting on the bill passed at the last legis-
Iature creating the Atchafalaya. Basin
Levpe District says. 1--WE are told that
before final passage the Legislature eut
down the land tax to q cents per acre
and the prOdu: tar 10 % cents per bale
Of cotton. etc. As the bill passed, there
will bp a 10 mill tax on the " nation Of
all PROPERTY in the district Consequently
ir many cas.s there " III he a triple tax
on land; that il, some land will FIRST pay
a 1O-u. III tax on its valuation. then 2l1
/ cents direct tas and then % cents on its
product. SO that an acre OF lard W ich il
assessed at ten dollars and produces one
bale Of cotton will have to pay ten cents
on its valuation, 215 ee' IS direct tax aud
25 cents on its product, thus making a
total Of 81 ~ cents per acre per annum.
When this sum is added to the State tax
Tbf 6 mills and the parish tax Of mills.
it will be seen that the acre of land as
sessed for ten dollars will have a total
tax Of so * cents to pay, which il slight
ly over per cent Of assessed value OF the
land.
This law might be excnsable il we were
left to depend entirely upon our own re-
sources Tor levee protection; but we can
seq no justification for this increase Of
taxation in the face of the Lottery pro-
position, which, if accepted by the people
gives an annual revenue of three hun
dred and fifty thousand dollars ($35OO, ,OOO
for levee purposes, during twenty-five
years, which is total levee revenue Of
eight million two hundred and ifty thou
sand dollars ($8,25O,WO) which will cost
the taxpayers not one cent. On this a
mount. Mr.. Morris proposes to advance,
without interest, during the year 1890,
the sum Of one million dollars, and in
1891, another million. These two mil
lions would be about as much as could
be advantageOusly used in levee build
ing and repairing these two years, as
the State General Engineer Fund would
be sufficient to pay the cost Of all surveys
and the salal les and expenses of officials.
etc. These two millions of dollars would
be net, and could pay for the building Of
from IL to 10 millions cubic yards of le-
wee.
There are many other objections to
the PrOvOsty bill, which we will leave for
futue comment. As things now stand,
it is quite evident that for the next two
years the taxpayers will have to bear the
burthans Of the PrOvOsty law. whether
they want or not; but unless we are very
much mistaken, the people, at the next
election in April, 1882, will take the mat
tea in hand and accept the Lottery pro-
position, and at the same time elect Le-
gislature which will wipe out the Provos-
ty law"
All the lands on the east side of the
bayou, in this parish are In said district
and will be liable to the above exhOrbi-
tant and ruirOnus tax.
