by Postponing Louisiana Pur-
chase Show,
All Exhibits There can be Trans
ferred to St. Louis.


Washington, Jan. lS.-The Louisiana
Prwchase exposition. which was TO
have been held at St. Louis in 1908,
viii not take place until 1904. This
fact was practically conceded by ex-
Gov. Francis, president of the expo
sition company, and Adolph Busch.
the financial agent Of the company. At
the white house Friday. Since arriy-
ing here and conferring with the for
eign representatives Francis and
Bnsch have come to the conclusion
that unless the exposition Is post
poned for . year the exposition viii
not be able to secure the elaborate
foreign exhibits which are decired.
They fnd for instance that great
japanese fair Is to be given under
government auspices in 1908, and i
the exposition is postponed until 1909
everything Of interest exhibited there
can be brought to St. Louis the fol-
lowing year. II is the desire Of the
exposition management that the for
eign exhibits especially shall be very
complete. I'm 1903 we can make the
exposition as great as any ever Civ
en- said Gov Francis, "but if we
postpone it a year, it viii surpass
anything in the exposition line ever
attempted. We can be ready in 1908,
but it Is questionable whether we can
secure what we want from abroad by
/ that time"

A GAS GUSHER.

While boring well for their rice
farm one mile west of st. Martins
vile. this week, Messrs. |. n. Sat
terfield and his partner, Mr.. Staly
encountered strong vein of gas
with a heavy pressure, at a depth
of one hundred aud seventy-tive
feet. A match was applied when a
clear flame steadily burned for "a
hours and is still burning. TIL,
news soon spread and all the coun.
try went out to witness it. Mr.
Satterfield was offered handsome
price for the property by New
Orleans capitalist, which he is con.
sidering This well is about four
miles from the famous Anse La
Butte well that had such promising
indications last spring, Mr.. J. G
Broussard, the oil agent of this city
states that on Sunday evening at
o'clock the gas was still burning
brightly when he left. The discov-
cry has created considerable ex-
element and oil experts and real.
estate men from everywhere are
hockiug to the ground.

IMPORTANT MEETING.

To the business and professional men Of New
iberia.
You are invited to attend a meet
ing at the City Hall on Monday,
the 18th inst, at 8 p. m, for the
purpose Of organizing to enable
our town to benefit by concerted
action, upon subjects Of such vital
interests as "Distance rates." the
encouragement of new industries,
projected railroads, taxation, de-
veloping our trade along the Eunice
Branch, Plaquemine locks, Charen-
ton Canal, drainage, Il etc. 1t
has been difficult to obtain any
united action in New Iberia for Sc
veral years past, but during that
time other communities have not
slept, and many good things have
we lost to them. Consider the re-
cent vote for a bond issue in
Orange, with only four dissenting
votes; consider the paper mill
which Lake Charles recently Sc
cured twenty-four hours after the
offer was made; remember the dis
sension which alone made it pos
sible to lose us the Industrial
School. Consider the Arnaudville
Branch, fifty miles long and start
ing from Cade Station instead of
New Iberia. Think Of the Charen-
ton Canal with the ground in the
possession of the government, sur
veys made, money appropriated,
and nothing in the way but the
apathy of a community for whom
the gods have nothing in store but
dissensions and petrifaction, unless
we arise to action. How long
would it take to open this Canal il
it was near Lake Charlesi
Too long, indeed, for New Iberia
has everybody's business been at
tended to by nobody. Put Your
shoulder to the wheel, and help
push along town with as many
natural advantages "a any other in
the State. Come ont to the meet
ing aud pledge yourself to attend
regularly aud work for New Iberia.

PROTECTED NEW RAILROAD.

Our exchanges are full of rail
road news and schemes. The |. G..
\. has in serious contemplation
the building of a line to New Or
leans. No pledges have been given
or taken, but a general investiga-
ton of the sentiment of the bust
ness people has been made, which
is of very favorable nature, One
Of the routes surveyed is from
Orange, Texas to Lake Charles,
thence southeast to Gueydan, Alb
beville and then to this city, thence
north Of the Southern Pacific line
to some point on the Texas and Pa
cifc near New Orleans. The peo-
pie along this route are naturally
enthusiastic for this great improve
ment and stand ready to meet any
reasonable proposition to get this
competitive line, which will mean
so much in every way to us. New
Iberia stands ready to welcome
with hospitable hands the advent of
this great developer. All they want
to know is the requirements and
they stand ready to comply; like
the one Of old, Iberia says "what
must ] do to be saved" from the con-
ditions that have confronted this
city for years. Anything in reason
that is in the power of New Iberia
to do, that will she perform, and
gladly. This magnificent country
has been too long neglected, too
long been the victim of corporate
greed, which has prevented the ex-
pansion, the development of one of
the finest sections of the world,
section which is at least being dis
covered and whose wonderful re-
sources appreciated. There is
room enough for all. Another
road will not materially injure the
one we have, as the country will
produce more abundantly under the
stimulus of another grand trunk
line.
Our citizens are awake with their
lamps trimmed and burning, ready
to welcome the entrance of the
great road. At Austin, Texas, last
Wednesday the charter of the
Houston, Beaumont and New Or
leans Railroad was filed for record
which shows the incorporation of
this much to be desired line, which
will in some respects parallel the
Southern Pacific.
