They had passed a most strin gent law
against bribery, and the Law az it stood was
certainly strong enough. If the gentleman
would make his amendment apply to
drinks given to influence votes he would
support it.
Mr.. Ferguson said that the only change
proposed was 10 make the present law APP
ply to all days the same as it now did 10
election days. Ii the House thought treat
ing a good thing. conducive to morality
and good government, they could reject
the amendment.
Mr.. Riley favored the amendment. The
Republicans tried to pass such a measure,
and he was satisfied that if it was once
passed, the handspring of Democracy would
be gone.
Mr.. Leonard was opposed to innovations
and thought the present law strong enough

The Greatest Evil

We had to combat; and he would go as far
as any man to break il down. One day was
not enough. Liquor was sent around in
barrels. in some ceases, and preparation
was made to- meet the law rs it now stood.
If anything could be done, he thought it
ought to be. Ho was decidedly in favor OF
making any election void if secured by the
methods against which the provision was
aimed, and no man who secured his posi-.
ton by such msans WAS worthy to sit in
the Legislature or fill any reputable Office
Mr. Lowery followed, opposing the
amendment for reasons stated in his former
address.
Mr.. Monroe thought it impolitic to make
great aud sudden changes in long estab-
lished usuages. He was opposed to the use
of liquor in elections, but we had pretty
stiff law on that subject now. Under the
present amendment man could not sxer-
else the rights OF hospitality for ten days
preceding an election. On two occasions
he had not been acandidste that long before
the election and in each case, under the
proposed Bction, he would have

been elected. Such schemes would be put
up, and he supposed that was the way the
Republicans hoped to once more get into
power.
The amendment was finally rejected by
q vote of ayes %; nay 81.
Mr.. Holt then moved 10 insert, in the
fourth line, after the word election, ''or
within ten days preceding the same, so rs
to make the prohibition cover that number
of days. He had no disposition tOconsume
time in discussion, but there was no doubt
that the greatest trouble in the State arose
out of the sale of spirituous liquors. 1t

order ofthe Dap.
The order Of the day WAS the considers
ton OF the bill concerning elections by the
people, on its second reading.
Several amendments were offered to the
bill, among which was one BY Speaker
Wilson imposing fine of $500 upon any
corporation for influencing or obsructng
the voters in their employ from exercising
free choice in any election. Adopted.
The same gentleman offered an amend
ment to the section relating to bribery I'M
posing a fine of not less than 5000 nor
more than $4,000 upon any corporation
which shall give anything OK value 70

consumed in considering the above oil,
and at - 80 it took recess till 2:30
Afternoon session.
Immediately the house was called to Or
der, House bill No. lS9, relating TO cleo
tions by the people, was taken up, but
Mr.. Moffett said his friend from Mana
wha. Mr.. Quarter, desired to offer resoiu-
ton to carry out the report of the COM
mittee on ventilation, which was then
offered and adopted, providing for the nee.
esSary changes and for paying the cost oil
the same.
Mr.. McDoddrill offered House bill No.
345, to authorize the judges of the several
circuits to require the clerks to make copies
of ali indictments, so that trial could be
had on the same. Also, No. 46, TO amend

The consideration of the election was
then resumed, and Mr.. Ferguson moved
TO amend, to strike out ION the day OF cleo
ton" so IS TO make the provision against
treating, and the free distribution OF liquor
apply to all days.
Sir. Lowry opposed the motion. Under
this proposed amendment, il man asked
another to take o social drink, he would
be liable to all the penalties imposed,
whether il was in his own house OF else
where.
Mr. Ferguson thought il right to prevent
the use of Intoxicating drinks at all times.
MIR. ReCkwith could not support the
amendment. Ii the gentleman would mod
ify it so as to apply only TO the day OF cleo
ton. he would do so cheerfully, but AS II
now stood II would prevent any cahuluatc
from inviting friend TO his house and eS-
tending the usual courteSieS.
Mr.. Lowry was in favor OF temperance.
II he could abolish the evils of the liquor
traffic, he would do so, but he was opposed
to interfering with the rights OF hospi tall
ty. Ii he invited a friend home with him,
while he was u candidate, and opened a
bottle of wine, he was both to be indicted

We are glad to note that our esteemed
friend, Judge Fl. 0. Maher, is not classed
among the Custom-Hou strikers" we
hear so much complaint about in con-
.nection with the Third District Congress
sional contest. Judge Maher has the
Endorsement and confidence Of both
Republican factions in this parish, and
on Saturday last he was chosen by one
convention delegate and by the other
an alternate to the Congressional con-
vention. According to the logic Of the
"outs." the moment a man accepts
position in the Custonl-Hou he becomes
a nonentity and an interloper and ceases
to have the right of participating i'll the
direction of political affairs in his parish,
though he may have been trusted,
competent and popular leader before.
This ridiculous doctrine can not be APP
piled i'll Judge Maher's case. He had the
respect aud confidence of the Republic
cans of Ascension when he was appointed
Chief Weigker i'll the granite building,
and his occupancy of that Office has
neither forfeited their esteem or deprived
him of a voice in the politics of the parish.
