LOCAL. PoIIT1cs. everal Repnblicat,
meetings have bces1 heh in different
portions Of the parish during the past
two weeks ut which Col. james Lewis. of
New Orleans has added his efforts to
those Of local speakers in advocating The
election of Senator Kellogg. As election
day approaches IT. becomes more aud
more apparent that the bnlk Of tho Re-
publican vote Of this parish viii be cast
for the regular nominee of the party
and that he will curry Ascension by a
HANDSOME majority. The minority will
be divided between Judge Bcattie aud
Mr.. Acklen, with the former somewhat
in the lead. Many Democrats freely ad-
nit the general apathy which prevails in
their party and acknowledge that the
vote for Mr.. Acklen will be q light one.
We think it safe to assume that, unless
u sufficient number Of the Beattie cam
vassers can be induced to distribute
tickets for Acklen Instead Of Beattie and
thus secure enough Republican votes to
make up the inevitable Democratic lose,
Mr.. Acklen's vote in this parish will be
much smaller than that cast for Wilt in
1879 or Billiu in 1884.
A little Beattie meeting. was held at
Almon prairie in tho eighth ward on
Thursday, at which, Messrs. Earhart and
Tucker made the principal speeches. We
lear, from persons friendly to the Beattie
cause that the affair did not amount to
much, and we have reliable evidence Of
the fact that the Republican sentiment
of the eighth ward is virtually unani-
nous in favor Of Senator kcllbsg's cleo
ton.
Judge Beattie had engaged to be pres
cut at the Almon prairie meeting OH
Thursday, at Ashland yesterday, at Or
ange Grove to-day and ut Domaldsonville
tomorrow, hut he has not put i'll an APP
pearancc, and his failure to keep his APP
pointmcnts here and elsewhere in the
district indicates that he has no hope Of
his own success aud that only his well
known obstinacy and :. determination to
punish, if possible, the men VINO have
stood in the way of his aspirations, keeps
him in the field as Il candidate. He is
reported to have said in a speech at Yer
milionville that lie preferred the election
Of Acklen 10 that Of Kellogg, and indica-
tions multiply that u disposition exists
among many of his followers to jump the
narrow dividing line between them and
the Democratic party on the day of cleo
ton and give Il secret if not an open sup
port to Mr.. Acklen.
Mr.. Acklen will address /. meeting at
Dutch Stores OH Thursday next, and at
Donaldsonville OH Saturday.
A Republican meeting will be held III
the eighth ward next Sunday, at which
Col. James Lewis, Mr.. l.. Z. Bentley and
others will speak.
