WASHINGTON, Nov. 20.-It has been sug-
gested by many Democratic members now
in the city, that a caucus be held in the
Capitol building sometime next week. The
purpose OF this meeting will be ostensibly
the con sideration of the attitude Of the
democratic party and the arrangement of a
programme OF legislation. But in view of
the embarrassment which attends the selec-
tion of Speaker, this matter will
be the leading subject which will
engage the attentions of the presenta-
tives on that occasion. Notwithstanding
the reiterations OF the newspapers that each
of the candidates has the pledges of a ina
iority of Democratic members, the truth is
that very few have given their pledges tn tho
support of either candidate. There is q
great uncertainty among them, not only as
to party policy, but as to the personal pro
cliVities of the candidates, especially In refer
ence to the tariff QUESTION. They incline to
withhold their promises until there is more
light on this subject. The efforts now being
made to effect this meeting will no doubt be
kucceRsful

The south Carolina Marshalship.

WASHINGTON, November 19.-United
States Marshal John Fl. Livingston, who
succeeded Blythe in South Carolina, has a
bitter fight on his hands, waged in the In
terest of John A. Agnew, anda delegation
of the latter's friends are here urging the
President to send his name into the Senate.
an behalf of Agnew it is urged that he pos.
sesses more backbone than Livingston aud
will enforce fair count aud free ballot at
the elections in South Carolina. Representa-
tive Mackey and ether leading Republicans,
however, indorse Livingston, while
Agnew Is champoned by the
Greenbackers and revenue men. The
President has not yet indicated any prefer
ence In the matter and both sides are kept
on the keen edge of expectancy for a point
in favor OF their respective candidates. 1t
is represented that reign of terror will be
inaugurated against Republican voters in
south Carolina unless the selection of deputy
marshals as supervisors is contided to Stall
wart who has the nerve to stand before the
mob element, which is alleged to predomi-
nate In the State. Agnew's friends claim
that he is the only man who can meet force
with force and hence urge that Livingston
shall be retired In his favor.

PRINTERs STRIKE IN BOSTON,

Boston, November 10.-The compositors
In the office of the Post struck tonight half
an hour after composition time for an ad-
vance of FIVE cents per thousand. Their
demand was plumply refused and the Office
is trying to get through the night with the
department men, who stuck to their cases.
Two years and half ago the proprietors OF
the Post locked out their men without
warning In the belief that strike was m ed
itated and let out their composition to a
contractor. The contractor has since that
time been paying any and all prices for work
and union printers have kept away from the
office, From the appearance of things to-
night 1t is judged that the Posts men have
now Joined the union. The other morning
papers pay from 40 to 45 cents and the
evening papers 35 cents. It is not believed
rat there will be trouble In any other office.

OUR MANDAMUS SUITS.

The town election suit, entitled State of
Louisiana er rel. Edgar A. Ramirez ct ais
rs. The Mayor and Common Council of
Donaldsonville, was called up in the Supreme
Court last Monday on the rule commanding
District Judge Cheevers to show cause why
his court is not without jurisdiction in the
case and why he should not allow defend
ants a suspensiye appeal from the peremp-
tory mandate by him granted and decreed.
The Supreme Court gave five days delay
within which to file briefs, three days to
plaintiffs in writ and two days additional to
respondents. The delay expires to-day and
the matter will be taken under ndvisenent
by the Supreme Court, to be decided, most
probably, during week after next.
In the church mandanus case-President
and Board of Church Waraens of the Ro-
man Catholic Congregation of Ascension

Judge Cd hoe was called up on Thuraday
pursuant to assignment, and a delay Of five
days granted for the fling Of briefs, just as
was done III the town case.

it to them to say whether the appearance Of
the paper has been improved by the change.
We are now using the Minion and Nonpariel
No. II manufactured by Messrs. Marder,
Luse 6 Co., of Chicago, and according to
our judgment the faces are attractive and
desirable. We have ample reason to con-
graduate ourselves upon the present condi-
ton and future prospects of our paper and
we propose that it shall take no backward
step, but rather advance and improve con-
tinually.

FTREMEN'S DAY

Fire Co. No. 1 and Ascension Hook and
annual celebration, and as we have repeat
eddy said heretofore, there is every prospect
that it will be the most imposing and sue
cessful affair of its kind that has ever taken
place in our town.
Arrangements for the afternoon parade,
the evening dinner and the ball at night
are complete in all necessary particulars.
The new steamer is as bright as FURNISHED
metal can be made, the hook and ladder
truck looks lis pretty as a picture in coat
of paint just administered by an artisan of
highest skill in this line Of work, and both
apparatuses are being handsomely deco
rated by the deft and fertile fingers of the
kind lady friends of our fire laddies.
telegram just received from the Presi-
dents of Jefferson % and Trad Ferry II of
New Orleans, announces that about forty
of the members of those companies will
leave the city at 5 O'Clock this evening, on
the steamer H. Hanna Blanks, in response
to the invitation extended those companies
to participate in to-morrow's celebration.
Delegations of Plaquemine and Napoleon
vile companies have also signifed their in
tention of being with us, and it is probable
that the number of visiting fremen will be
from sixty to seventy-fve. The Donaldson
vile boys will have an excellent opportunity
for displaying their capacity for entertain
ing guests, and we doubt not they will ac-
quit themselves as creditably as they have
done On similar occasions heretofore.
At this writing there is promise of fine
weather for the celebration and this is all
that will be needed to put the finishing
touch on the affair and realize the expecta-
tons Of the most enthusiastic in connection
herewith.

THE NEW TOWN OFFICERS.

The Mayor and Aldermen elected last
Saturday will meet to-day to qualify and
organize in accordance with the town char
ter, and we presume the other officers cho-
sen at the same election will file their oaths
of Office and bonds preparatory to entering
upon the duties of their respective positions.
Tt is to be anticipated that the old officers,
excepting the Collector and Constable, who
have been reelected, will decline to abdicate
without contest, and suit under the in
trusion in Office act is most likely to be adj
ded to the complications which have already
arisen from the unjustifable and reprehen-
sibie attempt of the town administration to
perpetuate itself in power by disobeying the
requirements of law and trampling the
rights of the people under foot.
We hold to the opinion that the decision
of the Supreme Court in the pending man
damus suit will not affect the validity of
the town election of Saturday last. Sup
pose the ruling of that tribunal should be in
support of the position assumed by defend
ants, that Judge Cheevers was without
jurisdiction to issue the mandamus ordering
the Mayor and Aldermen to perform the
duties the charter requires of them? The
facts still remain that an election has been
held as nearly as possible in conformity
with prescribed legal forms, upon the day
fixed by the charter of the town; and, the
law iterates and reiterates that no failure of
any officer to do his duty in relation to the
conduct of an election shall deprive the
people of the right to hold such election or
vitiate its result when held. This may be
characterized cardinal principle of our
election laws, and we shall not believe
until such decision is rendered, that our
Supreme Court will attempt its overthrow,
Or seek to establish the right of town Off
GERS to disregard the plain provisions of
Jaw whenever it may suit their purpose Or
inclinations to do so.
