THE BACK WATER. )


"Wednesday noon the river water be-
gan pouring into the lake by way OF
bayou Baxter and the lake has been
steadily on the rise ever since. How
far over the land the back water will
come, depends entirely upon the big
river. II is said that the crest of the
last rise has not yet reached Provl-
tience, though the river has been
brought to stand here because OF
the three crevasscs in Chicot county,
Arkansas. There can be but little
hope for a marked fall for several
DAYS even with fair weather, because
of the immense quantity of water IN
the river between here and Memphis
and in the St. Francis basin.
The back water will steadily rise
and we much fear, cover considerable
the growing crops in the interior
ialong the bayous.

THE NO FENCE Law AGAIN.


Mr.. Edilor:-In yonr leader of May

While reading Your article the con-
stable Of our ward came along leading
a COW. which be was inpounding for
grazing on the levee. There were
also quite number soldin this ward
last year for costs for the same reason.
Now. what becomes of the stock
that is taken off the levee during
thigh water when their range 10 des-
troycd? -Ia this neiglborhood they
stake them out with lines on the grass
patches through the fields, and as
natural consequence, they break or

Now Mr. Editor, we are TO all in-

without any of lis blessings, as the

and Sec. 81 of the parish law reads as

cultivating places back, shall be and

or 20 fence their lands as to prevent
their stock running upon places IN
J front of them SC" So according to
the law. the beautiful Eldorado paint

Again you say "the enforcement o

"a retrogade move" But facts arr

This week has been much more
favorable for plantation work than
the previous two weeks. There has
been considerable sunshine and any
