Governor.OlCct Goff's Right TO His Seat.
We agree with the esteemed Demo
cratic organ that ut would be tho Wild
est folly to talk Of Golf being seated as
Governor OF this State Eitlout right or
tile, by the aid Of federal bayonets."
Nobody talks that way and the Register
knows 1t. The friends OF General Golf,
those who elected him, know that he
has "a right and a title" to the office, be.
cause the election returns show that he
has, This is why they are insisting
upon General Go(E taking his seat, and
why they believe that, II las the Demo-
cratic organ declares) heis prevented
by force" the federal government will
interfere in his behalf when, us the legal
Executive, lie calls for aid.
Somebody WIS elected on November
@, and the returns show that Gen. Golf
was the man chosen, Tho refusal OF a
band OF revolutionists to open and pub.
lish those returns, as commanded by the
Constitution, does not ihyalidate them,
as the assinine Register seems TO think,
Til fact still remains that Gen. Golf
has u plurality Of the votes cast and is
the legally elected Governor. Who Is
there to prevent by force" his taking
the seat when the people have by their
votes conferred 1t upon him2 Isthis a
government Of the people and by the
people, or is II a government Of and by
coteriO OF Democratic politiClansi
who have assumed TO nullify tho Con-
stitutlon and to set themselves up
against the will OF the peopleH
tits about time tho Democratic leaders
and their newspaper organs began to
take practical and lawful view Of the
situation. They know that the fact that
General COTS plurality isSmall does not
make him less entitled to DO inauguratCd
and to serve as Governor pending tho
contest than III were a hundred ora
thousand times as great The returns
from oil tho counties, duly certified and
sworn to, declare TINT he has plurality,
and until II is proven false plurality, 1t
must DO taken as a legal ono.
As bold as tho Democratic majority
in the Legislature have been In the
work Of multiplying the Constitution, not
one Of them has gone TO the extent Of
saying, publicly at least, that General
GolT shall not DO sworn in on the 4th Of
March, aud that ho will be prevented
from doing so by force, and II Is some
what surprising to witness the leading
party organ make such a declaration,
II Gen. GoG has not a majority what

Lagarde'a Elizir
for Indigestion.

Mr.. A. }. Greenwood, travelling canyasser
ana correspondent for the louisiana Plant
e. and Sugar Manufac tt,rer, recently spent
two weeks on Bayou Lafourchs, going as
far down as Thibodaux on one side of the
bayou and returning on the other. During
this trip he visited nearly every plantation
between Donnldsonville and Thibodaux
and enjoyed exceptional advantages for in
specting the condition of the growing crops.
As general thing the prospects for plant
cane were poor and on many places the
estimated loss on this portion of The crop
ranged from thirty 10 fifty per cent. There
were exceptions to this rule, however, some
planters having an excellent stand of plant
as we'll as stubbis, The average condition
OF stnbble was good. He found several
planters shipping portions of their last
crop notably Messrs. Frank w. Nichols q
70. Of Lafourche and Dugas l. Landry of
Assumption. who undoubtedly realized
handsome profits from their foresight ID
holding sugar for higher prices than pre-
vailed last fall and winter. On moat Of The
plantations visited nothing was wanting in
the way of proper work and thorough cut
fivasion to bring the cane out all right, and
Mt. Greenwood's assurance on this point
will be accepted as conclusive by all who
are familiar with his long experience and
unauestienable skill as planter. He was
everywhere received With the cordial cour-
tesy and hospitality characteristic OF the
Bayou Lafourche people and greatly en-
loyeo his trip through their fertile and
beautiful region.
