SOUND SENTIMENTS WELL EXPRESSED

SOUND WE'LL EXPRESSED
\ The Pioneer Of Assumptions strong Democratic
paper-n its Issue Of the sth inst contains sensible
and well considered article on the approaching Su
preme Judicial election, many Of the views Of which
meet our cordial and sincere APPRECIATION In COM
menting upon, and quoting literally from ~ the only
regret weexperence is that the ideas SO appostely
expressed are not more generally entertained by the
editors political friends throughout the State. e
After mentioning the names of the only gentlemen
that have yet been announced as candidates for the
Associate Judgeship-Jndge James L. Cole, of La
fourche, and Judge ia Lea, of New Orleans--the
Pioneer proceeds to say: s.y5s., q.
Whether between this and the election on the first
Monday in April, others will enter the canvass we
cannot say. Unless man Of real ability as lawyer
and possessing great popularity, new competitor
would have but slight prospect of success The
present candidates have strong-partisan and per
insuring to them active and influential
support, and leaving scarce doubt in our mind that
one of them will be elected.
We have said partisan as well as personal friends.
This the honorable gentlemen may dislike, aud no
one more than ourselves would like to think it other
wise. 1t is true, Judge Lea has been solicited by
many highly respectable citizens including some Of
the ahlest lawyers in the State irrespective of party
to allow his to be presented for his reelection
and we doubt not, that as regards the Hon. Judge
himself, and the sgners Of the call, strong and
most honorable desire prevails to keep partisan spirit
and political influence out Of the contest Nor are
we aware OF any open Pon.ieal lnhuence alang nus

lutely impossible in the State Of Louisiana for any
election Of importance to be entirely free OF political
feeling.
Judge Lea is well known to be Democratic and
Anti Know N othing-not Judge-citizen, and there
many who, SUCH and forno other earthly reason,
will vote for hiul-and as necessary consequence,
the same influence will affect the vote to be cast for
his opponent.
