FOR DISTRICT ATTORNEY
1900.

Immediately after the midnight
hour on Sunday night, a new year
shall have begun-the year 1900
the last year Of the present centu-
ry.
1t is well at this time for us to
dwell with some earncstness upon
the future of the town and what
it possibly has in store for her;
New Iberia's opportunities and
how we can best improve them;
the importance of grasping advan-
tages, etc.
A gentleman Of good Judgment,
in speaking of our city, said few
days since, "In five years New
Iberia will he behind Monroe,
Lake Charles, Baton Rouge, and
even Crowley, if she do not get
ND and hustle. Why will this be
the easel Because, Iberia's lands
are too fertile, and New lber'a's
naturalopportunities are so many
As strange as this argument
may seem there is much truth III
it. Our people seem to feel that
the fertility of our soil and our
many natural resources are all
that are needed to make New
Iberia the second city in the State.
We grant that these advantages,
coupled with that spirit of enter
prise, that unity of purpose, that
combination of forces which are
building a cotton factory for Mon
roe; paving her Main streets with
vitrifed brick; erecting her own
a her own lights and waterworks--
which are putting up 1000 brick
churches in Crowley; giving her
more rice mills for the coming
crop, and which are causing Lake
Charles to move forward rapidly;
If, we repeat, we had this enter
prise, unity and combination of
our forces, together with our ma
tural advantages New Iberia
would soon hold second place in
the State.
Why can not and will not our
business men unite for this pur-
pose and effect much Of it as pos
sible during 1900? We have an
electric plant to develope; a water
works plant to secure; a canal to
dredge; a new Post Office building
to get erected; a promised depot
to be built; road to Segura to
complete and other things which
will place the town many steps in
advance of where she is at present.
Why cannot these be pushed
forward as rapidly as possibles
They should be. The coming year
should be one of ADVANCE for
New Iberia, and we hope it will
be. w.

THE boilers we're evidently afraid to
show their hand at Lexington. There
was no roll call and no way for the on
lockers to tell whether all the so-called
delegates we're from one county or
whether the 10 counties reported to be
represented were by person, proxy, or
as the Hon. Philpot would say they
jess rit letter." No one believes that
half the counties were represented. A
majority of the crowd came from Louis
vile, taken thither free of transporta-
tion, With free lunch and free whisky
thrown in. John Whallen paid for
over 300 meals at the Phoenix. Did
John put up the money himself or did
the l. & N. furnish IL? The answer is
obvious and the more the ways and
doings Of the pow WOW are studied the
more disgusting they become to honest
men and true democrats. 1t was the
worst fraud ever attempted to be per-
petrated on sensible people.

Reports From the Cattle Ranges Are
Far From Ieassuring.
DENVER. Colo. Feb. 6.-The reports
coming in constantly from the ranges in
all parts of the west show very bad con
ditions for the cattle and other stock
which is roaming the plains during this
terrible weather. 1t is generally ac-
knowledged that stock will be in danger
of heavy losses if the cold continues
longer. People coming into Denver
from the south and west say that
punches Of cattle are frequently seen
w%allowing in three or four feet of snow
and standing against trees with theil
backs to the wind. 1t is getting harder
daily for them to obtain any feed for
browsing. for a thin but stiff crust is
forming in many places on the drifts,
which renders it very difficult for the
animals to reach the food beneath.
Mr.. John W. Springer. president Of
the National Livestock association. ha.
received advices from Montana. Wyo.
ming and Texas to the effect that there
would be heavy losses in the vast herds

the following statement:
while the situation here has been
improved and simplified by the declara-
ton Of General Gomez that lie will i'm
mediately take part in the paciication
OF Cuba, the Immense advantage thus
gained should be followed up by the
American authorities. The reorganiza-
ton Of the island should be done by the
Cubans themselves. The real police
work now Is practically in the hands of
Cuban soldiers and law and order is
well maintained. There should not be
a moments delay in the organization
and equipment of these civil guards.
The bulk OF the American soldiers must
be taken out of Cuba by April. There
is really no necessity for more than two
regiments in each province to serve as a
background of support for the Cuban
police. In giving the best of these peo-
pie employment all the more will be
left of the relief fund for those who
must be helped back to the land"

ASPEN, Colo, Feb. 1.-THE situation

eighteen miles from here, is critical in
the extreme. Starvation stares the in
habitants Of the town in the face. Pro.
vision and fuel supplies are nearly ex.
hausted. Wood that has been cut and

under many feet of snow and cannot b.
reached. The mines there, in all prob.
ability must close down now until
spring. Roads leading to this place,

method of journeying between the two
places is on snowShoes. an exceedingly
dangerous method of travel. The storm

Snowslides are SO frequent between
Aspen and Independence that it is al.

there.
