NEW IBERIA SHOULD BE
ADVERTISED.

The sentiment for the organ
ization of a Chamber Of Com
merce in New Iberia, which you
have stirred up through the col
mmns of your paper, seems to be
very strong at this time, and to
one who has seen the good work
done by such organizations III
cities and towns Of the north
and west, the possibilities of a
. live commercial organization at
tracing outside capital to this
much favored community are in
deed fattering.
There is just as much reason
for a city to advertise it's resour-
ces to the outside world as for a
manufacturer to advertise the
goods he makes. There are in
stances by the score Of the good
results obtained by live CONNER
'cial organizations. Failures are
unknown where everyone puts his
shoulder to the wheel and forgets
/ the little personal animosities
which every town has, but which
a we'll organized commercial body
! tends to a large extent to elimi-
nate.
Thousands of people are going
out Of the north and east every
month in search Of better oppor-
| tunities in other states, which
, have far less to offer than New
Iberia and Iberia Parish. Thou"
sands of others leave the north
every winter for other Gulf Coast
cities and towns which have no
more diversion Of pleasures than
New iberia could present.
The name of these cities is a
household word in nearly all
northern homes, while that Of
New Iberia is unknown, except
to a very few. A little money
spent each year in well directed
| advertising would place New Ibe-
ria on an equal footing with such
| towns as Pass Christian. Corpus
Christi and other Gulf Coast re-
sorts well known to northern peo-
pie. The average tourist spend
/ ing the winter months here would
leave from 800 to $500. A few
Of these tourists alone would
leave in the community all the
? money spent in advertising, and
i if they were fairly treated the
advertising they would give New
Iberia would be worth many
{ times more.
/ The thousands Of homeseekers
who are coming to other places
il the south from all northern
, states are settling on lands in
most eases far inferior to the
/ productive soil Of Iberia Parish.
They are paying as much or more
| for these lands than they would
| have to pay here. They bring
/ into the community where they
I locate on an average Of over $1,000
! each, and many make investments
Of ten or twenty thousand dol
lars or more. A little we'll di-
rected advertising will bring to
/ New Iberia it's share Of this bus
mess.
| Numerous sections Of the Unit
! ed States exist almost solely on
the revenue from outside tourists
and investors. With the pro-
life soil and other many natural
resources Of this country in addi-
ton to the "crop" of outside
money which New Iberia should
receive annually, there is no rea-
son why this City should not
grow and prosper far more than
in the balmiest days Of the sugar
industry. The sooner a live
Chamber Of Commerce is organ
lied and begins advertising the
advantages Of this City and coun-
try to people Of the north the
sooner will the era of prosperity
and new growth be reached.

SALARY
LARGER THAN EVER

NEW YORK. March S.-The salary
Iris Speaker is to receive from tho
Boston American league club was to-
day the subject of much speculation
1t is understood that Speakers con-
tract calls for an annual salary OF
5000 or $4,000 ard, In addition TO
this he got a $1,000 bonus for sign
ing Before signing a Red Sox con-
tract Speaker listened to the Federal
offers, but demanded a five years con-
tract instead OF three years. He also
demanded the elimination of the
clause in the contract which gives a
club the privilege of dropping a player
at ten days notice.
This record price tops all salaries
ever paid in the history of the nation
al game. Joe Tinker has contract
with the Federal league which calls
for 1870 on a three-year contract.
Miner Brown also will get big salary
from the same league, and Otto knabe
will get almost as large salary with
Baltimore. Evers' salary with the
Boston Nationals is sl0,0 200 year. and
1t is stated that Mathewson's new con-
tract with the Giants provides for a
salary of at least $4,000 a year. Ty
Cobb receives like amount from De-
troN.

NEW YORK, March S.-President

ing as an excuse the failure of Catch
er killifer to resort to him. killifer
signed a contract with the F'ederals
and then thought better Of his action.
He returned the advance money he
had received and returned to his old
club, the Phillies. Organized base
ball maintains that kiilifer's old con-
tract bound him legally to the Phil
lies. and he was within his rights in
rejecting the Federal contract.
Probably a few more players will
jump their contracts-some big

any great exodus will occur.
