After the election on Tues
day, news came to DE-. ToNGc OF
Bayou Sara, that his name had
been used at the polls, i'll the
north eastern portion of the
Parish, i'll connection with the
Office Of coroner, Oh the radical
ticket. The DR.. was, very mat
rlrally, indignant at this I'M
warranted use of. his name, and
publicly denounced the authors.
Dr.. Tonge has only been III orr
midst a few months, but his
devotion to principles Of De
mocracy has been proven to the
entire satisfaction Of all who
know him. We take pleasure
in joining him in the denuncia-
ton of the radical managers,
who used his namc to give
strength to their ticket i'll this
Parish.

TUE RESULT.

The election on Tuesday last
passed off quietly. There was
no'disturbance at any Of the
polls throughout the Parish.
Out of a total registration of
22l5 voters, only 149G exercised
the right of suffrage. The fall
ing off may be accounted for
in a measure, from the fact that
a large number of colored vo-
ters had left the Parish to eli
gage in taking off sugar crops
in the parishes below.
For the result Of the election
we refer our readers to the tab
ulated statement in another
column.
The vote for Magistrates and
Constables throughout the Par
ish will be given in our next
issue.
We understand that Hon. w.
W. Lcake's majority for Sen
ator, in East Feliciana, is about
1900, which makes his total
majority in this district, about
2,736.
Up to the moment Of going
to press, we have been unable
to get reliable information from
pointe Conpce, but the indica-
tions are that the majority for
Yoist, radical candidate for
District Judge, viii overcome
the majority for MI. Powell in
this Parish. 1t is thought how
ever, that Nh. Seinple, Demo-
cratic candidate for District
Attorney, is elected by a small
majority.
Upon the whole the Demo-
cr;,tic-Douscrvativo party is to
be congratulated upon its sig
nal triumph over Tive combined
cohorts Of radical and inIor-
p2ndcntisnl, tl2 more SO be
cause Of the popularity and high
standing of the gentlemen OPP
posing the regular ticket.
We cannot close OR report
without reInarking the bad
taste displayed by some OF our
citizens in their opposition to
Hon. Suml. j. Powell. Had he
received die full vote given the
State ticket, (and Ne was .iuSti-
fed in looking for IT'D his cioc-
ton would have been assured
Through the efforts OF men &C.
tuutrl by reasons of pure per
SonHl spite, the people Of the
18th judicial District has lost

tally incompetent for the posi-
ton to which he Is elected.
Feliciana sentinel. [volume] (St. Francisville, La.) 1877-1892, 1879-12-06

A gentleman working
against the regular ticket, was
asked Il few days before the
election, !: what is your reasons
for opposing certain men on the
ticllet,' and replied, 81 have 10
reasons, but oppose on grounds
Of personal spite" The gentle
men were elected, notwith-
standing. But we would say
to such gentlemen, lay aside
your preiudicos. Next year
your spite may cost the coun-
try a Republic.
