GEN. J. FLOYD KING:
Dear Sir-The New York San Of
the seventeenth of December last
published a special telegram from
Washington, dated the sixteenth, un-
der the heading, "Louisiana's Vote
on the Debt Ordinance" in which
you are quoted as having used the
following language: 81 am confident
that the returns of the vote on the
debt ordinance are being tempered
with for purposes Of speculation. l
have never felt great confidence in
the honesty of either Treasurer
Burke or Mr.. Strong, and / think
those persons are holding back the
returns for purposes of their own. l
am greatly mistaken or their con-
duct will lead to their removal from
office and the purging of the Demo
cratic party in Louisiana from some
of the rascals that infest il"
Will you please state whether you
used the language imputed to you,
or any language that could have
been construed into an imputation
upon me in my private or official re.
latlons9 / would ask you to make
your answer as full and explicit as
possible. Very respectfully, your
obedient servant, E. A. BURKE.

and will probably be so far recovered

enter upon the discharge of his du'
tiec at the date specified in the new

THE JUDGESHiP.

The Board of Canyassers, in New
Orleans, having refused to count the
returns forwarded by order of the
District Court, in the Parish OF
Grant, W. f. Blackman, through his
counsel, James Lingan, Esq, flied in
the 9th District Court, petition for
mandamus to compel W. A. Strong,
Secretary of State, to count the poll.
Judge Rogers issued the following
order:
THE MANDAMUS.
", F. Blackman rs. W. A. Strong,
Secretary of State. The relator allie.
ges that he was a candidate for the
office of Judge of the Twelfth Judi
cial District of this State; that after
the closing Of the polls and the com
missioners of election at Poll No. l,
Parish of Grant, had perfected the
count of ballots cast, disturbance
having occurred, the tally lists were
destroyed and no returns made; that
by proceedings provoked before the
Parish Court the ballot box was pro-
duced in court, and under an order
of court the commissioners proceed
ed to count the votes, and the court
further ordering, the commissioners
concluded and certified the result.
This return was made to the Secre-
tary of State, who, in answer to this
proceeding, says that he submits the
matter to the judgment of this court;
that his duties in the premises are
ministerial, and he is unwilling to
assume any responsibility. The re-
turns show a protest on the part of
two of the three commissioners, and
this induces possibly the hesitation
on the part fthe Secretary of State.
The result of this is that, unless or.
dered by this court, the votes cast at
the poll in Ward No. 2, Parish Of
Grant, will not be compiled. Sec
tion IS of act No. So, of 1877. pro
vides that no election shall be vita.
ted on account of the negligence, il.
legal or improper act or conduct Of
any officer or other person, unless it
be proved in a contest that suffl
cient number of electors were there.
by deprived of their votes to have
changed the result Of the election.
| Section after section Of this act
throws around the conduct of cleo
tons in this State every safeguard
against irregularity or misconduct
on the part of those charged with the
holding of the polls, and it is asser.
ted that no election shall be yitiated
for such reasons. The result should
be announced, and the public quiet
assured as to the primo facie fact o.!
the result. Whatever rights parties
may have in contest are preserved
to them. The returns from the poll
at Ward No. 2, Grant Parish, show
upon their face the result of all cleo
ton had, and nothing appears in the
protest to vitiate that return or cleo
ton under the act referred to; he
sides the orders of the Parish Court
were presumably within its jurisdic-
ton and cannot be disregarded by
the Secretary of State or by tt; s
court.
Whatever be the result, the re-
turns now with the Secretary of
State from the Poll of Ward No. 2.
Grant Parish, should be recognized
and the votes compileain accordance
Herewith. The law designs that the
vote of every citizen, when legally
cast, should be legally counted and
the legal effect given to it. Let the
mandamus he made peremptory.
