OF THIS ESTA BLTSHMENT CON-
SYST:
FIRST-In its method of trade which is just

article, and that is plainly marked upon it.
No more nor no less is taken. No faults are
concealed, or Interpretations allowed. All
customers are treated alike.
SECOND-In the character and variety of its
goods. No better goods in the different
grades can be found anywhere, while few
establishments in the country present
varied an assortment. Our facilities for
buying are such as houses with smaller
trade cannot possibly enjoy We deal
largely with manufacturers, and keep
buyer constantly in the East.
THIRD-In our prices, which the lowest

CASH only, and SO have no bad debts to

GUBERNAToRTAL CANDIDATES.

GUbbRN AIURIAL CAN DIUAIhS.
The withdrawal of Judge james Jefries
of Rapides from the gubernatorial race is
followed by that of Judge David Pierson Of
Natehitoches, who has been urged to become
a candidate for reelection as District Judge
and has consented. Hon. w G.. WHY of
East Carroll and Senator Henry L. Garland
Of st. Landry have been suggested as dark
horses, while Hon. Emile Rost Of st. Charles
is still supported by the Hahnville Herald
as a bona fde levee candidate who con-
tributed $1,000 from his private purse to
protect the people from overflow. The
leading candidates are still ev-Gov. Nichols,
Gov. MeEnery and Gen. Ogden, whose
chances OF success appear to rate in the
order we have named the individuals, if the
attitude of the press and the sentiment of
the people are taken as a criterion. Nichols
does not seek or desire the place, however,
while McEnery and Ogden are both aspi
rants with the consent of themselves and
their friends. McErery has the support Of
most Of the politicians who control the ma
chinery of the dominant party and to whom
the packing and manipulation Of conven-
tons is familiar work. It will be a hercu-
lean task to defeat him for the nonina-
ton, and if the observation-disclosures pro-
pose to accept the dictum of 4 packed con-
vantion as test of party fealty from which
there is no escape, they should prepare their
stomachs for dish of McEnery crow if
they would be on the safe side. On the
other hand. if they have the independence
and manliness to rebel against chicanery
and make war upon their party ring as
the Republicans of New York and Pennsyl-
vania have done, they can place Nichols in
lar majority. And they need have no fear
of the Radical bugGboo. The Republicans
will neither nominate candidate of their
own OF demand q share in the patronage Of
the administration as compensation for
their support. Four-tifttl,s of their voters
will cast ballots for Nichols in preference
to McEnery or any other ring candidate,
content with the assurance that their action
will contribute to the election of Cover
nor who viii not regard partisan political
superior to all others in de- |
his official course-who will not
regard duty to party greater than that he
owes to the people.

A dose of very cold comfort is admins
tered to the Democracy by the New York
Herald. Only few days ago that paper
acknowledged that the Republicans are
likely to carry Ohio, New York and New
Jersey, to reclaim Massachusetts and Penn
sylvania, with an even chance for victory
in Maryland, while Malone bids fair to
achieve another triunphin Virginia. Should
this forecast be realized, the result of the
national contest of next year would be
classed almost as foregone conclusion.

Our friend Of the St. James Bug7e Cali
vigorously resents the attempt of the New
Orleans Timcs-Domocfot to make McEnery
capital out Of the fact that the CHIEF, an
independent Republican paper, favors the
nomination of Gen. Nichols by the Demo-
cratic convention: and incidentally the
BpgIe Cal asks il Major Burke was not an
aVowcd Grant Republican in 1872 and an
advocate of fusion with Gov. Warnoth? if
Mr.. Albert Baldwin, a prominent stock
holder Of The Times Democrat, was not
classed as Republican up TO very recent
date? if MIR. Jimmy Houston, another stock
holder, was not the deputy of Sauvinet, a
coloTed Republican Sheriff in New Orleans?
and if these gentlemen can claim the Dem
ocratic party Of Louisiana as their personal
property and dictate who may and who may
not tender it support OF advice?
