L. Fischer Lumber and Manufacturing C Company of this parish, was seen by w 'the Times-Democrat correspondent the other day, auu in the course of a pr general conversation said: 'We have yo decided to start a furniture factory, and to that end have purchased the pr brick store on Levee street formerly occupied by W. N. White. Assoon as - everything can be arranged we will h put in the necessary machinery and a commence work. The factory will be operated in connection with our tim- A her comnpany, and will work up what lumber our mills can saw for the pur-. ft h pose." The fact that a factory will be th n started in Lake Providence Is signifi- b e cant of the general improvement of 0 the town. That the enterprise will I- succeed is certain, as Mr. Fischer is one ti t- of the best business men in the parishb. I Mr. Haywood, a skille turner, will be n in charge of the factory.' As the ir special says, Mr. Fischer is a hust lig It '. business man, and if he owned the I vacant lots on the corner of Scsarbor R ough and Lake streets it would not be i long before he would erect two hand- c, some brick stores. a1 The Ilattlesburg, Misslsippi, Pro. a egress has discovered a real live curi osity.. It states that "it rau across a man the other day who is opposed to railroads. One is being constructed through his property and be says he is ii ruined. He says soon there will not c he a stick of timber on his land andt i that the land will be gobbled up by a r syndiale. Wheu we asked what the timber was put bere for if not for the e . use of man and what the land was made for if not to be cultivated by mano, whereby he might live oand pro, Svide for those under his care, he a screwed his mouth around and said he al thought God had put them here for an e ornament, or at least that is the way bh be talked.

The editorial published in our isue of luast week headed'"a timely warning" should have been carefully read by every land owner in the pariash whose property the contemplated Gould rail road is expected to run throughb. It meanwa much for East Carroll to get the front or river route road, and we do not believe that there is a land owner who would throw any obstacle in its path, by refusing to give the right of way, after being virtually dead for these many yeare; and if they should refuse the right of way, Mr. Gould will do exactly as he did with the land owners above Lake Village -rder bis engineers to go four miles further west-which brought them to 1time and a realization that they came very near making asses of themselves tI is true railroads are not built eutire Iv for the benefit of the public by a I.,g way,; and such large railroad systems have been fountd grinditng and as hard as any monopoly in sections that they pass through; but on the otler hand railroads are known to rave built up and made countri es, just 'a- this Gould road will do for Ea.t Carroll. The two survey lines in the extreme upper end of the parish is said to be only four miles apart, and it would not be much trouble for Mr Gould to take the back line if he is re. fused the right of way, which is all that he asks. We believe every man in the parish is too broad minded to do any thing that will hurt our chances in getting it. The right of way party will be along in a short I time-perhaps In a few days-when you should meet them with open arms, as it is a forerunner of a prosperous parish and a prosperous people. I We understand that Messrs. Robt. Nicholson, II. iH. Graham and Beverly Buckner, large planters in the lower part of the pariah, have acconmplished a great thing lately it the way of o seouring labor ftr their plattations. [ It is said that these gentlemen have already secured ottne hundred colored families, which is a big thing when we comte to averaging :hem at five to a family. It is said that this labor is leaving some of the counties in Missis sippi, and that several more familles t will be secured by the different plan tation owners. 'T'his is a great thing Is for East Carroll as labor is getting dreadfully scarce by new places being opened and several hundred colored r. people moving to the back country. tt A large amount of labor is alwas 2 coming to our parish, for the reason ~ that they are treated right, but this ic last venture of securing so many at e. one time; beats all records. A negro would rather be along a railroad than anywhere on earth, and when the road is built through the parish labor will always be plentiful as it is known to be t: along the Y. & M. V. R.
