ROAD.
Promoters Greatly Encouraged
BY Outlook Depends ON Tax
Elections in yermiliOn.

Lafayette, La, Dec. 1.-The board
Of the Eunice, Lafayette and Able
vile Railroad Company met this eve
ming at the Gordon Hotel, President
j.. j. Lewis, of Eunice in the chair
and Secretary Charles G. Cafery, Of
Lafayette, at the desk. There were
also present Senator Homer Barousse
and DR.. L. B. Arceneaux, Of Church
Point; Judge j. M. Green, A. j. Go
dard and j. S. Ewell, of Abbeyille;
C. d. Trahan, of Maurice, and Major
P. L. Declouet, Of Lafayette. The
board discussed routine subjects and
the general outlook of the proposed
new road and from remarks of Pres
ident Lewis and others the prospects
are very satisfactory. At present
the situation seems to hinge on the
result Of the special tax elections in
Abbeville and Vermilion parish, which
have been called this month to take
the sense of the property tax payers
on the proposition. The proposed
road extends a distance of about six
ty miles through as find a country as
may be found in the State, and will
materially aid in the development of
sugar cane culture as well as other
staple crops. The people Of Lafa-
Yette confidently anticipate and have
been positively assured by the man
agement that the road will connect
at Eunice with an independent sys-
tenn, and thus insure competitive
rates to this point. Upon this as
surance the town of Lafayette has
voted a 3-mill tax for ten years,
equal 60 $4,000, in aid Of the prof.
.ect, and the Eighth Ward has given
a bonus Of $1,000 in tax. The eff
feet Of this road On the agricultural
development Of the parish will be
fully as potent as that Of the Cod
chaux line now building into the
southern part of the parish by way
of Youngsville to Milton, a point on
the Vermilion River.
