The river rose rapidly all day
Sunday and at 7:3O last evening
the ice started here. The break
up, however, was not general, as
the ice again gorged at IL 30 last
night. The rise was out OF the
Monongahela river, and this NOR
ming at 6 o'clock the Ohio was
about on a stand here, which
made it evident the bulk of the
rise had passed. The river COM
menced breaking up in sections
Saturday afternoon at points be-
tween Bellaire and Pittstburg,
and continued in this manner
throughout Saturday night and
Sunday. Considerable damage is
reported to have been done to
property by the, heavy gorges of
ice at many points between this
city and Pittsburg. There was
also considerable damage done to
steamboats, and other river craft

Ice in River Starts, But
Breakup is Not General

on the Monongahela river during
the breakup.
The breakup at. this point was
of very mild nature, no damage
having been done to any property
along the river front. The wharf
boat escaped without a scratch.
The ferry boat, which is moored
on the Ohio side, just opposite the
city, escaped also without injury.
The. gorge is still intact at this
writing-2 p. m.-and many ex-
perienced rivermen are of the
opinion that it will not be forced
out until there is more water.
This being the case the ice will
remain with US indefinitely. The
present rise reached the foot OF
the banks, and with the river
bank full of dirty gorged ice it
does. not look like the beautiful
Ohio spoken Of in history. The
ice is jammed in on it's edge, and
in fact in every conceivable man
ner and presents a forbidding
sight. :... D..

ture in it's efforts to secure relief
to the trade and to see that justice
be done;
Fourth, That in view Of the
fact that the rule Of equal rights
has been ignored by the company
we hope that the State will sec
that the independent producers
have a square deal and are sup
ported in a substantial manner in
their efforts to obtain relief from
an oppressive situation.
Fifth, That in maintaining
their priority rights, they should
receive all necessary aid not only
from the State, but from oil pro-
ducers in all other fields.
"Resolved, That a copy OF these
resolutions be forwarded to the
Speaker of the House at Topeka,
Kan"
It was the consensus Of opinion
that the action of the Standard
Oil company in suspending all
work in the Kansas fields was due
not so much to the refinery bill
now before the Legislature of that
State, as to the bill making pipe
lines common carriers.

ENERGY ENGENDERs SUCCESS.

Well-directed energy brings commercial and in
dustral success The most enterprising and rapidly
growing towns and cities have wide awake associa-
tons that are keen to seize every opportunity to
advance their town. No individual ambitions or
personal interests are allowed to interfere and all
work together with one object in view. Every
member of the commercial and business associations
is an active worker, and never loses opportunity
to advance the towns interests There are no
drones, the croaker is unknown, and the entire
force of the body is put forth in united efforts,
powerful that all obstacles are overcome.
In Louisiana we have many individuals who are
working TO their utmost ability to develop our WON
derful resources, and using every means in their
power to attract both capitalists and immigrants,
but with few exceptions, there is no organized work.
Most OF our towns and cities have commercial as
sociations that have long, Understanding names,
but those of them that have accomplished anything
worth mentioning can be counted upon the fingers
of one hand and perhaps there will be finger or
two to spare. The reason for this is that the men,
be1s of these organizations seem to think their duty
is done when their dues paid and that nothing
more is required of them. This is entirely wrong.
Every member of such body should work all of
the time. All should be the alert to further the
interests of their town and parish at all times.
Every attempt to establish industrial enterprise
should receive their attention, and if the plan pro-
posed is practicable they should support it finan-
cially. Manufacturers will not locate with us when
other localities offering all sorts of inducements
to attract them, unless they receive assurance
that the advantages we claim exist, and the best
assurance that be given them is willingness
to invest in the enterprise.
After few factories have been located, others
will come without other nducement than the natural
attractions here for them, but the first ones must
have financial support. It is the duty of the COM
mercial associations and moneyed men to furnish
this support, and until they ready TODD it, the
establishment of factories in Louisiana will be very
slow. The great quantity, variety and desirabiity
OF our natural resources will eventually bring in
dustrial development, but not until other localities
less richly endowed by nature but with more energy
have secured many factories that would have located
in Louisiana had the promoters of them been given
any encouragement to do so.

some of the papers can be found quarter and half

It don't look consist for newspapers to take these

of whisky in their communities and are for prohi-

rejected.
