We had the pleasure this week of
meeting Mr. Chopin, of Natchitoches,
who was here in attendance upon the
closing exercises of the convent
school. We interviewed him in re
gard to the probable building of the
railroad in this direction from his
town-Natchitoche' He said they had
submitted a proposition to our peo-
pie and were waiting for reply, but
up to date they had received none.
He says they have been anxious
about the matter, as it is one of vital
Importance to his people. it seems
that in justice to the people of Match
itoches it would have been business
like to have done them the courtesy
to have said we would or would not
entertain their proposition, and this
would have perhaps given them an
opportunity to look elsewhere for aid
or shaped another proposition. They
seem to feel that we have not treated
them Just right.
