Electric
Railroad
From Berwick City to st.
Martinville
Via New Iberia, One Of the
Probabilities
For the Near Future. Gen.
Myles Organizing the System.

Gen. +. +. Myles, who for the
past twenty-five years has been
intimately acquainted with and
associated with the Teche country
who knows its resources as well
perhaps as any one person; who
has confidence in the section, is at
the head of a movement to con
struct trolley road from Berwick
City via all the Teche towns
through New Iberia, to st. Mar
tinville.
Gen. Myles is especially fitted
for launching and successfully pi-
loting such an enterprise. He is
accustomed to handling businesses
of giant proportions. He is ac-
quainted with capitalists all over
the Union. He knows our country
and our people and they know him.
When approached Oh the sub
iect, the General said he believed
such a road would be of incalcul-
able benefit to the entire section
along it's line, in that it would help
to rapidly settle up and develope
it. All the towns would derive
benefit, both from this develope-
ment and from the increased facil-
tiles afforded farmers and others
to visit them, even in the wettest,
muddiest weather and to do their
trading.
When asked for details, Gen.
Myles said that while the matter
had progressed favorably so far,
and that very much of the neces
sary stock had already been sub.
scribed, it was still too young for
positive detailed information. How
ever, he believed the traffic would
be sufficient to enable a car to
leave each terminus of the road
once every hour, and that such fa-
cilities would encourage travel
over the line.
In response to a question re-
garding competition with the ex
listing railroad, he did not see
where the two would be antagonis
tic. On the contrary, if the trolley
line helped in the development of
he country, which it certainly
would, it would be a help to the
other road. Being in hurry the
General then drove off.
These roads exist in the north
and east to a very great extent
and are undOubted factors in the
growth and developement of both
the country sections and the towns
through which they run. Real es-
tate is greatly benefited by them
both in town and country, and
this would probably happen here.
This matter is not altogether a
new one here. 1t had been dis
cussed by some of our business
men before as a probable paying
investment, and Gen.. Myles was
surprised to learn Of this fact
when he broached the subject to
them. 1t had, however, never
reached thepoint has it just no W.

Mr.. LeWman
On WaterWOrkS.
Work Will Begin on the
WaterwOrks
And Electric Light Plants
AS Soon AS
Tools Have Been Received.
Guarantees Good Systems.

Mr.. M. L. Lewman, contractor
for the waterworks and electric
light plants granted our paper al
interview on Tuesday evening
Knowing that this topic is one oi
the most intense interest 10 the tax
payers and the public generally WI
rep, oduce his talk as nearly as pos
sible.
Mr.. Lcwman said it was his lnten
tion to begin the work just as soor
as bis tools arrive, which will prob
ably be next week. He Will then
push the work as rapidly as possible
The first move he Will make will be
to erect the buildings and found
atlons for machinery. These will be
located on the lot purchased by
the city from Capt Pharr. The art.
esian wells will also be sunk there.
There will be between 8 and 10 miles
of mains to be placed. Mr. Nichols
has cnarge Of the direction of the
work ard l do not know weither
they will be LAID In the center or on
side of the streets, but l think he
will probably have them on as to
leave the.cenler forsewer pipes which
you must have at some future time.
All machinery will be in duplicate
in both the waterworks and electric
light plants. In fact, they will both
be modern and up-to date. The
waterworks system will be arranged
to take water from the wells and If
needed from the bayou also. There
will be eighty double hydrants in
town which will afford ample pro-
lection l think. The system has
been arranged so that there will be
no dead end, and will be constant
of water. The water
rates fixed here are low. The entire
cost of the waterworks plants will
be $59,695. This city is one one of
he largest town in the United
States without waterworks and
lights systems and it is fortunate
you are to get them. Towns usually
built these things when they have
from 3, 900 to 4, 900 inhabitants, and
make them larger than they abso-
iutely need so ssto build up to them.
Your electric light system will
cost $4,000. You will have SO arc
lights for street lighting. which
will light New iberia we'll. There
will be 8 miles of wires, and think
your people will find after the new
plant shall have been installed, that
electric lighting will be cheaper
than coal oil. At least this Is ex.
perience of other places. Of course
there will be day service as well
I hope to have the plant IN opera
tion IN about 5 months, unless prev
sn,ed by bad weather
Your city IS to be congratulated
that this is municipal instead of a
franchise plant. believe IN munic-
ipal ownership. This board OF
commissioners had what seemed to
be some very fattering offers FOR
