reason was that Mr.. Keely wanted post

at the end of which time he promises
that the motor will be in full operation.
Secretary Schullerman, of the company,

We have heard this week that
many of the planters are anxious
to see the refinery materialize,
and many of them will take stock
according to their means. We
have talked with a planter from
Fause Pointe who assured us that
he knows at least one hundred
and fifty planters who would take
at least one share each, many
would take more, or that they
offer as an inducement to contract
to give Is tons of cane each-as
a bonus-to those who will esta-
blish a refinery located where
they could have some advantage
to haul their crop. They favor
st. Martinville as the point for
the establishment of said refinery.
A traimway that would run from
this place to Fausse Pointe would
prove of immense benefit to all
concerned, and particularly to st.
Martinville. We would suggest
that those at the head of this
needed enterprise call meeting
at once and organize. When the
people will know who will be the
officers and the board of directors,
they will surely invest their mo-
new in the stock. Push it now, it
is the proper time to agitate this
great enterprise.
