AN URGENT NECESSITY.

We have advocated the formation
Of q Board of Trade for our City
and we are pleased to soc that num-
ber Of our business men are favoring
the move ,,pd arc discussing the mat
ter preliminary to an organization.
The establishment of a Board of Trade,
composed of active level headed bust.
ness men would contribute greatly to
tho welfare Of our City aud of the en-
tire Parish, It would be its province
to encourage industrial enterprises,
municipal improvements, transporta-
tion limos, and especially the building
and maintaining of good roads. the
need of which IL keeping much trade
and money from New iberia and d.
verting IL to other towns. This one
subject alone Ia worthy the best en-
deavors of our business men. Good
roads are the arteries that feed the
body Of our City. II they are impas-
sable, or indifferent, the town must
suffer In loss of trade and prestige and
business Importance. Another prov
inoe Of this Board Of Trade would be
the securing OF conventions, assemb-
lies, and meetings Of large bodies, thus
advertising our City and its resources
and accelerasing business. In this
connection we would mention that the
T. p. A. Convention to be held In
April next should have strong dele
cation Of this Board Of Trade inviting
the next Convention to our City. and
holding oat such inducements and ar
guments a. will secure ii.
We urge this matter upon our bust
ness men, that they organize this i'm
portant, body without further delay
and thus further their own interests
and those Of our City and entire
Parish.

HOW 1T WORKS.

q A man once marked dollar bill
and spent it with his baker. 1t re-
turned to him. He then spent it
with his butcher, aud again the dol
lar came back. The same thing oc-
cured when, several times after,
he had exchanged the dollar for its
equivalent in dry goods, groceries,
aud in payment for his subscription
to his newspaper. One day he sent
it in payment for goods which he
had ordered from elsewhere, aud
he never saw it again. 1t had
sought new field OF activity and
circulation, aud the community was
one dollar the poorer.
The same applies to each and
every one of the dollars spent in
your community or sent away from
your home town. Many send their
dollars away unnecessarily. How
many order elsewhere without first
investigating the quality, supply
aud prices Of home goods and home
labor. The home establishment

WHAT ARE WE GOING TO Dor

New Iberia has Mt last an oppor-
tunity to gain another Railroad outlet
to the commercial world. The Colorado
Southern Railway are now building
their extension from Eunice to Ope-
lousas and are making rapid Roadway,
thence contracts for grading from
there to Port Barre, thence crossing
the Atchafalya to Baton Rouge with
New Orleans the objective point.
We have reliable information that
this Company il looking out for Feed
ers to their line, and are taking the
preliminary steps to build n branch
road to the towns of jennings and
Crowley. The distance from Port
Barre to New IBERIA is only 40 miles,
and tho Company would willingly ex-
tend to our City railroad connection
il the proper encouragement were Of
fered.
The only encouragement asked Is
the rights Of way along the line of
survey. Now lot the people of New
Iberia awake from their lethargy and
Indifference and get move on them
selves. and mt once put into the field
q committee to solicit the right of
way. first getting in contact with the
Company to learn just where the right
Of way will be located. Our people
cannot act too quickly, but at once
take steps to secure the branch road
giving us an outlet to Western points,
and an additional one to New Orleans
st. Martin Parish will no doubt CO.
operate with our people and force the
matter to q successful issue. Again
we urge Immediate action.

GENERAL WHEELER Is DEAD.

New York, Jan. 2j.-General
Joseph Wheeler, the famous Con
federate cavalry leader aud brig,
adler general of the United Stasds
Amy since the war with Spain,
died at 5 :35 o'clock thiseven az at
the home of his sister, Mrs ,Sterl-
ing e. Smith, in Brooklyn. The
ve:erat7of two wars was 6S years
Of age, but in spite of his age there
was hope until yesterday of his
recovery from the attack of pneu-
monia which caused his death.
1t has not yet been decided where
the body will be inferred, but
probably it will be in Arlington
National Cemetery near Washing
ton. Announcement of the plans
for the funeral will be made to-
morrow.
dene.al Wheeler wasDtaken i'll
six days ago at the home of his
sister Gvhere he has been living
recently. He contracted severe
cold which developed into pleurisy
and pneumonia. From the first
his age told against him, but the
family did not give up G5pe until
last night when the disease was
found 10 have affected both lungs.
General Wheeler's immediate rel
atives were all with him. His
daughters, Mrs. w. j Harris and
the Misses Anne, Lucille and Carrie
Wheeler had been summoned from
the South, and arrived early IN the
week. His sou, Major Joseph
Wheeler, Jr., U. s. A, now sta
toned at West Point, was also
present, as well as General Wheel
er's sister, Mrs. Sterling Smith,
and son.
The family were summoned to
the bedside of the patient at mid
night last hight, when the doctors
in consultation decided that the end
was but matter of hours. The
General was then awake and con-
scious, and bis mind was apparent
ly active. He seemed to know that
death was approaching, and though
too weak to speak he succeeded in
giving signs Of recognition and en-
enlargement to his children. n
Later the General sank into
peaceful slumber, and at the re-
quest Of the doctors the family
quietly withdrew from the sick
mans bedside. General Wheeler
was never again more than semi
conscious. He fingered until this
evening, and passed away quietly.

PAVING THE STREETS.

The subject of paving our principal
streets is one that is constantly recur-
ring. Our City Fathers are consider
ing the means for putting our streets
in passable condition, the price of oys-
ter shells have reached the point that
they becomo expensive, entirely too
much so, for temporary makeshift.
so the necessity of the situation IL
gradually crystalizing into the belief
that paving with some durable mate
rial is the only solution to che ques-
ton. That this will entail heavy
expense is assured, but the outlay need
not be paid at once, that is the people
need not be buluened as i'm the side
walk matter. IT our City Fathers
have sufficient credit 10 entertain the

PUBLIC SCHOOL NOTES.

While the Abor Day program was
rendered in each School building on
January, l2th, the planting of the
trees had to be deferred until the 10Th
on account of the inclement weather.
So promptly at one O'Clock last Fri
day the pupils of Julia Street School,
Madison Street, and the High School
were formed in line by grades and
marched to Live Oak School where
the open air feature Of the program
was carried out Each grade was
preceded by It's standard bearer who
bore the grade colors. Some Of them
were very artistic and will be pre-
served for decoration of the rooms
and coming events of this kind. The
interest shown in carrying out the
program was very marked. both on
tho part of the pupils and teachers
The former vying with the latter as
to who could contribute most toward
the days success.
-Four trees were planted by com.
mittees of pupils from each of the
schools, during the patriotic songs.
This is the first time in years that
all the pupils Of the public schools Of
the City have been assembled, and the
numbers In attendance seems to have
caused surprise ON the part Of some,
there would be more IL the seating
capacity of the school rooms were
greater. And the increase would be
made at once IL the teachers and the
pupils conld do it. They cannot, but
the Mothers Club say they can. They
are determined to make it possible for
all the children to nnd seat in the
schools os New Iberia. Let the civic
pride Of every man and women take
hold of this problem and help the
Mothers Club to solve 1t. GiTe the
children more school houses and
better ones; more teachers and better
paid teachers Il Is your reasonable
duty to do it. II Is what IL expected

ment, and the most helpful environ
ment to their school children

GREATER THAN ANTICIPATED

We are glad to note that the
Tyler Commercial College Of Tyler,
Texas, has been agreeably surprls
ed with their January opening
During the first half of Jan. they
added to their already large attend
ance, more than 100 n34y students
comYag from 10 different states.
They have also been pleasantly
surprised by receiving more calls
from prominent business firms for
tNsair graduS IS than they were able
TO supply. The grD@5n and sue
cess Of this institution is wonder
fpl. 1t clearly demonstrates the
great demaHd in hus,,sess circNeas
for thoroughly trained young meu
and women.
They have in attendance retiued
cultured young LADIES' from some of
our very best homes, who realize
the necessity of commercial edu-
cation. There is an air of refine
ment to be found among the stu
dents Of this institution that is per
haps not found in any fother com
merclal school in the south. In
fact, it is the only commercial
school so far as we know that gives
special attention to the moral sur
roundings and training Of its stu
dents.
In their new and commodIous
building with it's 10000 square feet
of floor space, they will be able to
accommodate 100 more students,
which they fully expect to enroll
before the close of next month";
Texas and the entire South should

AN HONOR TO LOUISIANA.

The chief cause of the growth in
our prison population is due to the
better sanitation and better care of
the convicts, hundreds Of lives be-
ing saved that were formerly
throwr-away as it were, sacrificed
to the had cons tons that formerly
prevailed. This is mathematlCally
demonstrated in the rate and
mortality OF the convicts. The
death rate for the eight years be-
fore the state took charge was "a
per 1000, reaching its maximum in
1896, when the rate was 207'e per
cent, more than onetifth Of all the
convlcts dNlng IN Single t7ear.
