La. North and South Railroad.

Capt. C. H. Teal has made two or
three trips of late to Alexandria and
North Louisiana, in the interest of
the railroad above named, and is at
this time absent in the same cause.
The Alexandria Town Talk, of Sep
TENDER 30th, gives the following ac-
count of the object of his operations
in Alexandria, viz:
Mr.. C. H. Teal, of Colfax, represent
ing the Louisiana North and South
railroad company, is in the city for
the purpose of making arrangements
to circulate petitions for signatures,
to be presented to the police jury,
asking that they call an election for
the purpose of allowing the property
tax payers of Alexandria ward to vote
on a proposition to give the said COM
pany mill tax for ten years. The
petition will cite that the company
will not earn the tax unless the road
is commenced within sixty days and
completed from Alexandria to Colfax,
on the north side of Red river by De-
cember 31st, 1898.
By a telegram in the New Orleans
papers, from Alexandria, dated OctO-

pides parish has ordered an election
in Alexandria and Rigolette wards
