TIllE TULLIE LINI. The election hell ito Braux Bridg-e Mondi in favor ,of the Southwestern Traction and Power Company, was cart isd by a unani ruiins vote, which is a sure indlica tiomi that the peoplte f this section are in favor this lIie. l'h-l next electionr will be in La fayette ii a shoit time, where, we I learn thereu will bI, sume ,op posi. tion, but if Lafayette was to vote agatant thils proposillun it wiuld be pelrhaps better for us as Ar naudvillle, Leoiville andl Opelou sase, we ItIarII ale anxious to Kgt the linle atn are ready to vote a tax in favor of thisa line, and this, we be Iitve wonil In us uch better for us as it \unld iuln the entire length of St. Martin parish and through one of the finest sections of Lou isiana. W\ wulil Inu(ih prefer to see the lini run to thoset places than to Lafayette as it would be of gisater beieftit to this entire seo ton, anti we .-ven believe it would be wise fit our people to take this matter up aith the railroad Com pany and with the people of the townes menltlolied above.
