The reason for the decline of hemp pro-
duction is closely connected with the in
vention of the steamboat. When Rumsey
and Fulton were inventing their steam
boats they were signing the death war
rant of the hemp industry. AS sail power
was swept from the seas by steam power,
the demand for canvas and rope fell off.
Then came cheaper hemp from other
quarters of the globe and the decline OF
profits TO a point below that which could
be made cultivating other crops which
will grow in bluegrass soil.

MUCH WORK TO Be DONE ON BOTH

Overhaulins to Hull and Machinery
Of Munset Line cubana-Water-
front News Notes

Two vessels arrived at the ship
yard yesterday for repairs. the Mer-
chants and Miners Transportation
Company's steamer Parthian from
Boston and the four masted schooner
George r. May. which was towed
over from Norfolk in waterlogged
condition.
The work on the Parthian will con-
sist of a general over-hauling OF her

neous hull repair work, and it is ex-
pected that she will remain at the
yard for about two weeks.
The Parthian has been running on
the Transportation Company's Phila-
delphia to Boston line. but she Will
take a run on the new line which the
Merchants and Miners Company will
establish in the. early part of this
month between Baltimore and Jack
sonville, as soon as the repairs on her
are completed.
The May was towed into Norfolk
during the latter part of April In a
waterlogged condition by the steamer
Tccantus. which picked her up 1870
miles off the Virginia Capes. The
schooner was bound from Jackson
vile to Philadelphia with cargo of
100000 feet Of yellow pine when she
sprung a leak and Captain Davis and
the crew were just able to save their
clothes and few personal effects be-
fore they were compelled to abandon
the vessel.
In addition to the above repair
work it was learned yesterday tina,
the shipyard was the lowest bidder
on a good sized repair job TO be I'M
dertaken on the Munsen line steamer
Guiana. consisting CT a general over

program included the presentation of |

The prosperity of the whole parish is
bound up together and the interest
OF one section is the interest of all.
MT Mouton favored if possible a
lower rate but pledged himself to
work for the schools,
Judge William Campbell also ex-
pressed himself in favor of the tax,
and assured the Board that as ever he
would be found foremost in the ranks
for educational advancement. The peo-
pie were now better able to undertake
any proposition of this kind, as a re-
suit of the Industrial Institute tax and
the common school tax had resulted
in so great benefit to all. The splen-
did system of schools established
and the beautiful buildings erected
were proud monuments to the zeal
and devotion Of the people to the
cause Of progress and enlightenment.
Judge Campbell believed the tax
would carry, but favored a lower rate
il possible. He would not support
the proposition If ward lines were re-
cognized. Judge Campbell gave the
Board much valuable advice as to how
the campaign should be conducted.
Editor R. H. Broussard of the Dem
ocrat said the proposed continuation
" the tax for the benefit Of school
was the only salaviton
or the schools In the present situa-
ion. He showed how the small pro-
'erty taxpayer would benefit greatly,
md out Of all proportion to the pit
ance he contributed. He however,
hought lower rate II possible, would
meet with less opposition. He thought
he tax should be voted by the parish
$ whole for the whole parish. The
Meeting then adjourned and the
'chool Board repaired to its room and
here adopted resolution authorizing
etitions for a special election to
AXE the sense Of the voters Of the
arish on the proposition to levy a
We mill tax for ten years in favor Of
