DIVORCE Or THE WATERS

The subjoincd letter from thu
pen Of Capt + r King of New
IBERIA, appeared IN the Times
Democrat of AUGUST 18th:
/ wish through the columns OF
Your widelN-eircuIated paper once
more 10 call the attention or thc
leyce taxpayers the city OF New
Orleans and the State to what they
have done towards the building Of
leyces, he reclamation and IN
proyemcnt Of QUA. overfIowed lands
and the development of the wealth
of our State.
From the reports Of the Audi
tor ! find that the entire assessed
property Of the State FIR pur-
poses OF taxation amounts TO 1913
1871
The seventeen Ievce districts are
assessed at 5000. Ji6. 30 This
does not include all the property
a'pendcnt on Ieyee protection
Fer instance. it does not include
all the Techc. but only that Of the
east bank The lands Of The east
bank are Just as high as those
OF the west bank, and are no more
IN need 81 protection Why this
is so could never understand.
The result of this is that TO avoid
the high levee tax and forced
contributions, nearly all the build
me and Improvements have been
put on the west bank. | have no
doubt many other sections have
done the same.
BY reasonable estimate there
should be added 10 this assessment
at least So. 0OO. 900 making 1884
Dl6,25O dependent on lcvees. and
1874, 6l5,925 not dependent on
.evees.
From the statistics YOU will see
hat the levee taxpayers have re-
1eemed from the floods and inn
proved and developed the wealth
If the State nearly four-ffths of
he entire taxable property of the
State. It is for these reasons they |
should receive more respect and |
consideration than they have from
our Governor and Legislature, |
which proposes to increase their
leavy taxes by giving donations |

Much regret was expressed
BY our merchants and other busl
ness men this week when It be
came known that the promoters
of the steamboat line between
New Orleans and New Iberia
would withdraw them large boat,
the J. L. Trudeau from New Ibe-
ria after September 9th, running
only to Baldwin, in the future.
According to information furnish
ed rs by their genial agent. Mr..
j. Well, the boat Is not with
drawn for want of patronage by
our people, but because no stock
in the line could not be placed
with our business men to enable
them to put into the trade the
second boat for New IBERIA. When
the boat line was organized the
stock was subso ribed by the mer-
chants between PlaqlIemine and
Franklin for their own conven-
fence in securing freight out OF
New Orleans and they found that
too much time was lost by con
tinuing up to this point, To the
detriment of the real promoters
of the line 1t is the wish of the
people that they will reconsider
their steps as Judging from the
business they received, the ven
ture ought to be a paying one.
The Enterprise wants an active
correspondent at every postofflce
in iberia and will pay for same.
Several houses lin the East
End portion Of New Iberia were
burglarizcd last Friday night,
though nothing of much value was
taken. At one residence it is said
that the small sum of two dollars
was extracted from pantaloons
that was in easy reach Of the rob
Der. which was discovered only
the next morning when in the act
of dressing. At another the house
had been very much ransacked,
that the thief was in
search Of money. the occupants
of the premises being absent until
a late hour of the night. When
the cuiprit was making his way
up the hall of another home he
was perceived and readily made
his escape, but not until he was
recognized as being negro. 1t
is hoped that he will be captured
soon before he commits any more
1epredations in this City. We have
ong contcnded that the police OIL
icers of New Iberia should be dis
tricted. and nH all allowed to
patrol at the same time the same
beats. which seems to be confined |
TO the business portion OF
New Iberia. If these oflt;e
we're districted where they could |

rave much better police protec-
ion and burglaries in New iberia
would not be so frequent.

Out of Tune.

A piano tuner employed by city
firm was sent to a certain suburb to
tune a piano. He found the instru-
ment in good condition and not in the
least need of attention. A few days
later the firm received letter from
the owner of the piano, a lady OF
musical intention, saying that the piano
had not been properly tuned 1t was
no better than before. After receiving
reprimand from his, employer the
hapless tuner made another trip to the
suburbs and again tested every note,
only to find, as before, no fault with
the instrument This time he told the
lady so.
"Yes," she said, "it does seem all
right, doesn't it, when you play on it
but as soon as l begin to sing 1t gets
all out of tune again.
