THE SENiTORSHU.

The senatorial question is becoming
more interesting as the time for its so
luton draws near. Senator's Gibson
and Eustis are in the field for ~re-elec-
ton. Congressman Blanchard is an
avowed candidate. and the friends of
Hon. b. F. Jonas are urging that gen
tleman's name for the distinguished
position. Gov. McEnery, also, has
many friends who would like to see
him honored with the senatorship. As
for Mr.. Blanchard. bis well-known free
trade views place him out of the race,
at least so far as southern louisiana is
concerned. As for the other gentle
men abOve-named, they all have some
claims on the party for past services.
If the question of merit alone should
determine the matter. we have no
doubt that Gov. McEncry would. by
all odds, he awarded the prize. He
has always been a true and loyal DEM
ocrat, ever ready to make any sacri-
flee to promote the welfare OF the
party. In the last campaign especially,
did his yeoman services prove invalu-
able to the party. The success of the
party is due in a great Measure to the
patriotism and devotion of that grand
old Roman. And now, u reunited De-
mocracy could do no more generous
and appropriate act than to send Sam.
ID. McEnerv to the United States Sen
ate, as a slight token OF its apprecia-
ton OF his many services.

Thursday, the last day of our So
journ in lospitable St. Landry was
spent at the Wosdworth's Springs in
the vicinity of Washington, whittier
the members re} aired at the invitation
Of the citizens OF said town to partiei-
pate in a grand picnic.
The drive from Opelousas to Wash
in gton, a distance OF five miles, is v er
a rolling country. with fields OF way
ing corn aud cotton On both sides OF
the road, and here and there Il clump
: of woods, whose green foliage thrown
against the blue horizon affords CRATE
full relief t. the eye. just at the turn
of the road lradins to the springs
looms up the Mount Hope nursery of
Nh. L. j. Lacy, which is justly cele-
brated for the quality OF It's fruit trees
and other products.
At the Springs some eight or nine
hundred people participated in the
festivities of the day. In due time a
fine dinner was spread on tables erect
ell in the open air, to which everybody
was invited and of which everybody
partook most heartily. Indeed, as
one approached the festive boards,
grooming under the weight of their
delicacies. one almost thought, like
the gentle Elias BO-bo. that ian OdOr
:ssailed his nostrils unlike any scent
which lie had before experienced
The sweet scents OF savory roast pig.

spring chickens provoked the appetite
and cheered the ''cockles of the heart"
And when it came to the supreme test,
if one may judge by the evident en-
joyment reflected on the ~csuntenances
OF the ban4ueters, every morsel proved
most Unsatisfactory to the criticalness
of the c%ensOrious palate" Never be-
fore was such an open air banquet
spread before such q multitude OF peO-
pie.
The people of O%pelousas and of
Washington are entitled to the evel-
lasting gratitude and unstinted praise
of the members OF the Louisiana Press
Association for their generous hOspi-
~tal;ties extended to their guests and
their ever SOLICITORS endeavors to pro
