The Marksville Bulletin approves
the new appointments Of police jurors
made by Gov. Nichols for Avoyelles
parish, but adds:
We hear, however, a great deal of
dissatisfaction on account of the Gov
ernor's action in the premises. 1t is
urged that several wards, had by petit
ton, expressed an almost unanimous
preference for certain gentlemen, on
the belief that Gov. Nichols weuld be
guided solely by the will Of the people
Of each ward. but other gentlemen
were appointed than those for whom
petitions yer signed. This has natur-
ally given rise to great and severe
criticism against the present admins
tration.
Nothing is said against the gentle
men appointed, rs nothing can be said
against theHl, but Gov. Nichols course
is held up as at variance with his ut
terances before the nomination..

The Republican convention to nomi-
nate candidates for President n
Vice President will meet during the
coming week in Chicago. Since Blaine
has written his second letter declining
to run, Il great deal of speculation as
to who will be the nominee has been in
obliged in, and many self-sacrliclng
patriots have erected their lightning
rods, willing to be struck by the presi-
dsntial electric current ; but, thus
far, all the political quidnuncs are at
sea as to the probable results OF the
convention.
There is a strong under current
flowing in the direction of the plum
ed Knight" Of Maine. and there is
nothing improbable in his final noml-
nation. Indeed, the Magnetic Man"
hangs with a strange fatality around
the neck of the doomed "grand old
party and like the "old man OF the
sea- cannot be shaken off.
The Republican party has been
~singularly unfortunate i'll finding Its
evil genius in the person of its iaverlte
son.

Speaking of the appointment of Gov.
S. d. McEnery to the high Office Of
Associate Justice of the Supreme
Court, the Picayune, which hitherto SO
bitterly opposed and maligned him,
pays our distinguished fellow-citizen
the following well deserved compli-
ments.
Governor McEnery's legal attain
ments are of the highest order, no man
in the district from which this APP
pointment comes being better quail
fed to fill the position. The manly
stand which he took in behalf of his
competitor for gubernatorial honors,
after one of the hottest contests on
record, showed his devotion to the
best interests of the Democratic par
ty and the welfare of the State, and
won for him the concentrations of his
former most vigorous opponents.
The action of Governor Nichols ia
appointing Governor McEnsry to this
position will receive the approval d
AL Democrats of every faction, and
the judiciary will gain the services Of
an able and experienced %jurist.

The st. Louis Convention has adop-
ted the tariff plank of the Democratic
platform of 1884, as interpreted by
the President in his last annual mes
sage. The remainder of the platform
is very conservative and sets forth
what tie Democratic party has ac-
complisiled in the past and its col
templated future course.
Next week the Republican party
will meet III convention in the city of
Chicago, to nominate candidates for
President and Vice-President and pro-
mulgate its professions Of political
faith. It is only then that the cam
paign will be fairly opened, with the

All About Bustles.

A lady resident of Morgan City
dropped her hustle ON the street, and
it was found to consist Of a worn-out
shoe, we'll wrapped up i'll an apron
Donaldsonville Chief.
We heard of this hustle, but never
said anything about it.. The facts are
it was found near the railroad the day
the editors passed through for Opelou-
sas. The shoe had the letters IL. E.
BE- marked on the inside. The wrap
per seemed to us like a tOwel.-St.
Mary Reriem.
We have always lad q curiosity to
know Of what ingredients the festive
animal known rs the 'bustle" was con-
stitutcd, and as we have been enlight-
ened almost without inquiring, we
must admit that we are greatly sur
prised at the simplicity of the con-
%struction of the very popular and now
indispensable article Of the female tot
let.-Iberville South.
Truly, here is a valuable discovery.
a happy solution of the weighty pro-
blem, "what to do with old shoes"
which has so long perplexed good
housewives. To cast them into the
street is in violation of municipal law
to pile them up on your own premises
is an eye sore; to throw them into
your neishbor's yard is to foment dis
sessions and quarrels that L any
thing but neighborly to burn them is
to drive everybody out of town with
the stencil of unclean burning leather.
But now the difficulty is solved; con-
vert them into that useful article of
feminine ap1arel-bustles.
BY the by, could not some utilitarian
and enterprising genius seize upon this
new idea and develope it into a grand
industry for the manufacture of ''Old
shoe bustles ?" Such bustles could be
turned out cheap, and there would
seem to be "millions in it," as Col.
Sellers used to say.

National Democratic Ticket.
THE LEGISLATURE.

Already one half the time Of the
present session of the Legislature has
passed away and comparatively little,
nay, almost nothing, has been done.
As much had been said prior to the
nominations about reform. the people
had been lead to expect a great deal
from their law makers, and as Il
natural consequence their disappoint-
ment is all the more keen. They be
gin to realize now that, after all, things
are running pretty much il the same
grooves. and that the present Legisla-
ture, which had been 50 much relied
on at the outset, is Just about OF an
average with the Louisiana Legisla-
lures Of the past eleven years.
After disposing of the senatorial and
judicial questions and several contests,
it's time has been taken up with the
ordinary routine business, the passing
of concurrent resolutions which gener-
ally mean nothing, tinkering at the
codes and Revised Statutes, working
on the various appropriation bills. not
forgetting their own perdiem and mile
age: but as to any measures of reform
or projects looking to the general good
of the people, very few indeed have
been originated or in%augurated. On
the other hand much valuable time
has been frittercd away in the intro
daction. reference and discussion of
puerile bills, some of which reflect
little credit upon their authors for
common sense, and of special bills de-
signed to grind somebody's particular
axe.
We pass these structures not for the
mere sake of being censorious, but be-
cause we deem it to be our duty as an
organ of the people to call the atten-
ton of our law makers to their own
remissness. They are the representa-
tives, the chosen agents OF the people,
and as such accountable to the people.
The people have a right, therefore, to
demonstrate with them and to require
them not to neglect, in the pursuit of
trivialities, the vital interests which
have been confided to them.
There are still some grains of sand
left in the hour glass, and much can
yet be done by our Representatives to
carr the good will of their constitu-
ents; but no time must be lost. The
time is precious and there should be
an end to rrihing. Let the life he
strangled out of all puerile and non-
sensical bills which are introduced for
buncombe, and let all private bills be
relegated to the rear and measures of
reform, looking to the general welfare.
be brought to the front and vigorously
pushed to fruition. By such a course
sur Representatives will justify the
confidence reposed in them by the peo-
pie and earn a good name for them
selves as true and faithful servants.
Will they let the opportunity to ac-
complish these desirable ends slip by
nnimproved? We trust not.

Representative sigur, Of ST. Mary,
has introduced a bill making writs OF
fc,i .ttacias directed to constables re-
turnable in seventy days instead of
thirty days as at present. Such
should be the law, as constables are
now authorized to seize and sell inn
movable property under execution,
and cannot effect a sale of such pro
perty within less than thirty days OF
judicial notice, thus compelling them
to proceed on a copy to complete theil
sale. This lisa certainly a useless trou-
bic to impose on them.
