has IN course of construction a fine
hotel of 70 rooms SO says Dr.. Bay
lis, who has adopted that town
as his home aud is now LOYALTY

mendable move on the part of Kap-

We are pleased to state that
the enterprlsiug firm of Messrs.
Smith, DeBlanc x Suberhielle are
shipping goods, wholesale, to our
sister town Of Crowley and giving
entire satisfaction in quality and
prices. We doubt not that our
business with the "Rice Queen
could be greatly expanded were our
merchants to place themselves en-
rapporte with the Crowley consum-
crs. The way to do this is to adj
verilsr III this paper, as well as
those at Crowley. A word to the
wise Is sufficient.

A meeting of the Progressive
League was called for Monday
night but owing to the absence OF a
| quorum no business was trans
acted. The object Of the meeting
was the consideration of railroad
propositions looking to the estab-
fishing of line from here to Lees
Vile on the Kansas City Southern
Road. An informal discussion by
the few present could not result in
anything, but from what was
offered, it was deemed the PROPOSE
ton was not fair TO the city as It
would be called upon to furnish
funds sufficient for the building Of
the road and yet have no proprie-
tarv interest in that which they
had constructed. Another meeting
will be called for next Tuesday
evening when it is hoped large
Attendance will he present, when
perhaps propositions more favor
able will he presented for discus
sion.

cares and trials. Gentlemen we
thank you.
