A GREAT CHANCE.

The one great deficiency of thi
part OF the country is its lack Of di
rect communication with the grea
markets OF The north. With th,
east and the west in Il straight line
we have one Of the great trunk sys
TENS but the markets for products
or for those products that could be
furnished in profitable abundance
do not lie in those directions.
Unqnestlonably this section
needs line Of Railroad to the
North directly and until it does
get that line the people will be in
the dolddrum as it were, unable to
make that progress that should be
theirs and could be theirs if they
would only take the reins in their
own hands aud drive straight ahead
to the goal.
Within the last week the eyes Of
the people have been opened by
the visit OF Mr.. &. w. Peters to
this city. He has made study Of
the situation, OF the lines Of the
road to the North and be came
here with the startling announce
ment that only thirty five miles lay
between this City and Parish and
prosperity. Just thirty. five miles
Of this line can be built aud then
the markets Of the north are open
ed 10 the farmer, the planter and
the truck grower.
Mr.. Peters showed by maps and
other data that the Texas Pacific
las a line Of railroad that could be-
tapped by q line from here at Port
Barre, which in an air line is Just
thirty-five miles away. Between
us and that point there are no
swamps. The cities of st. Mar
tinville and Arnaudville are almost
on the direct line to that point. |
They would be as much interested |
in the line as we and not little
assistance could be obtained from
the enterprising citizens of that
place il the project were put into
shape.
This Texas Pacific line that could
be tapped runs North Easterly aud
by short cut off our line could
connect with another Texas Pacific
line running directly to St. Louis.
This line once built by us would
give freight delivery into st. Louis
in about 20 hours.
Think of it, Our planters and my
aids truck growers could ship per.
shable stuff to ST. Louis ard the
North 80 hours and get high prices
or all they send. Is it not worth
while working for.
The cost of such a thirty five
niles line OF track would be but
i245, 900 at the most. Would it I
lot pay the people to subscribe /
hat small amount and build the
Inc this year, They could get
heir money back any time for such

The readers of this paper will be pleased to learn that there is at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to cure in all stages, and that is catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure now knows to the medical fraternity. Catarrh being a con- stitutional disease, requires con- stitutional treatment. HalP S Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby destroying the foundation of the disease, and giving the patient strength by building up the constitution and assisting na- ture in doing it's work. The pro- prietors have so much faith in it's curative powers that they offer one hundred dollars for any case that it fails to cure. Send for list of testimonials. Address: F. J.

LONGWORTH FOR TAFT.
Thinks Secretary Tymfes the Pres
ent administration.

Cincinnati. April 10-Congressman Nicholas
Longworth returned from Washington to-day.
In an interview he declared himself in favor Of
the nomination of Secretary Taft as the Repub-
lican candidate Tor President. He said that his
opinion was personal and that he spoke only for
himself but that he believed that Mr.. Taft in
the eyes of the people typified the Roosevelt adj
ministration
Since it has been announced that Secretary
Taft has been a candidate" Mr.. Longworth
said. lit seems to me that the sole question in
volved is whether or not the Republicans of
Ohio will indorse him for the Presidency. Sec
retary Taft being candidate for President, and
for no other office. 1 cannot see how any other
offices are herein involved. PERSONAL---VERY.
speaking only for myself am for Taft for
President. The great question before the peo-
pie in the next Presidential election will be- in
my opinion. the approval or disapproval Of Re
publican policies as registered by the legislative
and executive branches of this government for
the past eight years under the administration
of President Roosevelt
1T seems to me that after the President him
self there Is no living man who thoroughly
typifes In the eyes of the people the spirit of
the Roosevelt administration William H.
Taft. There Is no one who can he better trusted
to carry out many of the great reforms which
will be necessarily Incomplete upon the retire
ment of President Roosevelt March 4, 1909.
as can William H. Taft His whole life since he
became of age has been devoted to the public
service. His record has been without speck.
his character without a flaw. his abilities as
jurst and administrative officer have been
so distinguished to have placed him in the
ranks of the very great men in tho history of
this country
"Ohio. moro than any other state, is known
as the mother of Presidents. I believe that the
time is at hand when she may become the
mother of another President. for firmly believe
that If the Republicans of Ohio stand by William
H. Taft he can be nominated and elected"

Grow preferred 10 spend his fortune to silence
such reports rather than attempt. at his adj

him. This proof is in the hands of James T
Dubois. formerly consul general Of the United
States to st. Gall. Switzerland. and executor of
Mr.. Grows estate.
When asked about the report that Mr.. Grow
had been swindled out of his fortune. Mr. Dubois
practically confirmed it. He said. however that
nothing in Mr.. Grows life could in any way
reflect upon his integrity and uprightness
MI Grow sent for me I'm September. 1905.
Mr.. Dubois said. Ito come TO Glenwood. Penn.
his home to him. He told that owing TO
unfortunate railroad and other investments. and
the ingratitude and deception of people whom he
had befriended. he had lost practically all Of his
fortune, and that he was without means Of sup
port.
Il assured him that long as I lived he
should not want for the necessaries of life. and
that there was no reason for his fear that he
would be buried in the pOtter's field. Upon re-
turning to Washington l wrote to Andrew Car
negie informing him that Mr.. Grow had lost his
fortune and was in financial distress. Mr. Car
negie at once replied that he was very sorry to
hear of Mr.. Grows misfortune. and after con-
sultng with me he put him his pension list
for 81 900 a year.
"In the early part of this year Mr.. Carnegie
desired to know how Mr.. Grow was getting
along, and If he comfortable and happy.
Upon learning that he had nothing but the pen
sion of 81, 900 he at once doubled It, saying that
he was very glad to make arrangements for Mr..
Grow for the rest Of his days, because he had
rendered such distinguished services 90 his
country and his fellow men, especially in con-
nection with the Homestead act'
