A great many colored men came out
Oil Tuesday and voted the Democratic
ticket straight through.
This is Il fact worthy of notice.
When the colorcd voter learns to come
forward and select good and proper
men for State and parish officers. he
will BEGIN 10 have an influence i'll po-
ltics that may be made of avail to his
interests. So long as they align them
selves against the white race, just so
long will their influence amount to
nothing. The simple voting for Il man
because he Is white will not answer the
purpose. They must learn to se'ect
the best and most reliable men. The
day has passed when Louisiana viii
suffer bad men to occupy the offices
by which the State is governed.

\ glorious victory for the Democracy
OF Louisiana was that of Tuesday last.
1t was grand, splendid. joyful: Gen.
Nichols has been elected by some fifty
or sixty thousands OF votes majority.
The Republican boast that that party
could carry Louisiana has been perfor-
ated by Il cyclone and scattered to the
wild winds. The Democracy of Louis.
lana has shown ia the world that it is
a live institution; and will stand no OPP
position.
Warmotll started ont two months
ago under the delusion that he could
convert the people of the sugar-grow-
ing parishes and talk them over into
the Republican camp with the protec-
ton doctrine of the Republican party.
Aiming himself with one Of John
Sherman's bills to put sugar on the
tariff free list, he mounted the rostrum
with the vim and yisor displayed by Il
schoolboy as he grasps his baseball
bat ut the mornin. recess.
All around the >ugar-erowing dis
tricts he has met aatl showed the PEG
pie the beauties Of Republican protec-
ton.

GALE.--A large number of relatives and
a very extensive circle of friends join in la
mentng the recent decease in the prime of
a vigorous manhood of Cortland A. Gale
of Chicago, son of Lewis and Lucinda
(PettengilD Gale OF Barre. Mr.. Gale was a
man of noble physique and yet he was the
first called from a family comprising father,
mother five brothers and sister, no death
having occurred in the immediate circle for
forty-sX years. He was very attractive in
person and in manner, being one of the
most genial and generous of men, and won
to himself multitude of friends. His youth
was spent on his fathers farm; but he
learned the moulder's trade and for the
last seventeen years was in the employ of
the Chicago Foundry Company doing "A
class OF work which only a few men could
perform. Death came to him unexpectedly
and painlessly, after season of illness
which he had not deemed very serious and
when he was hoping to return to his child
hoods home to recover strength His body
was brought to Barre for the funeral and
interment.

The Election.

This is by far the largest vote Montpelier
has ever thrown and the largest majority
given to a representative in any period
of its political history The number of
names on the checklist is ,06j; so the total
vote for representative is only 14S smaller
than the entire number listed. But fifty who
could vote the state ticket were not qualified
to vote for representative, so that Montpelier,
with a voting population of 1,065, has fallen
only 100 short of casting her entire vote.
This fact speaks volumes for the efficiency
of the political work done at the capital
Taking the presidential years from and in
Guiding 1876, the vote for representative has
been as follows:
