II Is better to have too little CON

GORDON HOTEL TO
CHANGE HANDS.

The Gordon Hotel will be un-
der a new management begin
ming Jan. 1, 1908. The Improve
ment Company's advertisement
Offering to lease the hotel to the
highest bidder resulted in rails
ing the rent from $4,000 a
month paid by the present lessee,
to $575.OO month to be paid by
the new lessee, Mr.. J. j. Parml-
ter, of Hammond, La. Under
the terms of his contract with
the Improvement Co., Mr.. l.. f.
Sales had the right to renew
his lease on the Gordon Hotel at
the same rental the Company
might be able to obtain from
some one else, which gave him
the preference over all others.
but Mr.. Sales declined to meet
the bid of $4,000 a month rental
made by Mr.. Parmiter.
We learn that ten or twelve
bids were received in all, rang
ing in amount from S425-OO a
month to S575.O0. No doubt the
stockholders of the Improve
ment Company are pleased at
the prospect of now getting fair
returns on their investment.
which we understand has no,
been the case for the past three
, years, although the town as q
whole has been greatly benefit
| ed by the erection of this spac
! ious modern hotel building.

NATIONAL RIVERS AND
HARBORS CONGRESS-.

The following letter, which is
self explanatory. has been seat
out by Secretary Trezevmt OF
the New Orleans Progressive
Union:
New Orleans, Nov. 25, 1897.
Dear Sir
The New Orleans Delegation
to the National Rivers & Har5orS
Congress at Washington, Decem-
Der 4th, 5th, and 6th-wil eave
this city in body over the
Louisville and Nashville +. f. at
SOC p. m. Sunday, Decem Der lst.
AS you of course know. our
honOred fellOw.LOuiSiana, Hon
JOS. E. Ransdell, of Lake Pro
vidence. is President of the Con
gress. which is second only in
Importance to the congress of
the United States and, therefore,
it is incumbent upon Louisiana,
both as a matter of pridt and
practical results. to send re-
cord breaking delegation to the
National Capitol.
Louisiana has possibly a larger
Interest than any State in the
country in the success of in
creased appropriations for the
establishment and maintenance
of water ways and we feel that
an extra effort should be made to
induce as many citizens of this
State as possible to attend the
December Convention.
We have arranged for the
Louisiana delegation to meet on
Wednesday morning. December
4th-9:3O o, clock at New Willard
Hotel where Louisiana's part of
the program will be decided
upon and members selected for
various committees to which the
State is entitled.
Governor Blanchard will head
the delegation if the present
session of the Legislature shall
have been adjourned in time and
it is earnestly hoped that you
may send a large representation
from your district In event
you have named delegates, l
shall be glad to have you for
ward me a list.
| For your information, I beg to
say that round trip rate from
New Orleans is S399O good leav.
