Some of the Foster Supporters.
A correspondent writes us as follows

| A correspondent writes us as follows
Senator E. D. White is the attorne,
and one of the directors Of the whitney
National Bank. Senator White anC
this bank are warmly supporting Muir.
ply j. Foster for Governor The Sen
ator comes all the way from Washing
ton to help the Foster faction get the
best OF the adjustment as against the
McFnery ticket. The Whitney Bank
contributes $4,000 to the Foster fund.
Why is this? Why will Senator White
encourage INSTRUMENTATION and treason
to the Democratic party by consorting
with boilers
What interest has the Whitney bank
in Fosters success?
In order to aid the voter in making
up a solution of this coincidence it may
be we'll to state that the Whitney Bank
began its existence as a banking iDsti-
tuition years ago on a capital OF $780,
900. 1t now has SS1S,000 by simple iu-
crease in the regular course of business
and not by increasing the capital. This
bank pays its Stockholders $4,000 an
nually.
The farmer may be able to conjecture
who pays this enormous revenue. This
comes close to being a giant corporation
that might attract the attention Of those
Foster malcontents who found in the
lottery so much to abuse.
The banks that have been handling the
lottery money have never been able to
approach this magnificent enjoyment
and exhibition of profits.
This is the institution that is backing
Foster for Governor. d

Hope Hook g. Ladder Co. No. 1, of
Opelousas, celebrated Washington's
birthday in the usual manner last Mon
day--by partakiDg of an elegant ban
quet. This, together with the closing
nf the public offices and schools, was
the only observance here of the anni-
versary that we noticed. In various
States there were many celebrations,
and thousands of speeches eulogizing
the Father of his Country" were made.
Ex-Presldent Cleveland, for instance,
went all the way to Ann HaIbor Mich,
to deliver an address on that day, referr-
ing to which the N. 0. Times Democrat
says:
MIR. Cleveland properly holds that in cele.
brating Feb. 20, we not only honor Washington,
whose birthday 1t is, but the republic itself he
established, and the American ideas he gave
life to; and the ex-President insists that there
is nothing shat will lend more to encourage pa
triotic duty than an enthusiastic celebration of
Feb. %.
More attention should be given such
anniversaries to the end--if for no other
purpose--that u more patriotic spirit be

Mr.. Arthur McGu uirk has been chosen
as stenographer by the committee of
seven who compose the election Board
of Control, which committee is COM
posed of three McEnery and four Foster
men. This is the same gentleman
whose presence so mortally offended the
royal parsonage, Gov. F. L. Nichols,
by taking stenograpbic notes of the
words said when Col. Crandell and the
Committee called upon him at Thibo-
daux to ask his views, and to procure
au expression from him on certain ru-
mors that had became current touching
the unfair use that he contemplated
putting his official power to in the cleo

that the Governor apologized for his
rudeness, but he has been heartily con-
lemned by the people of Louisiana.
Now Mr.. McGuirk's efficiency and char
acter is thoroughly yindicated by this
selection and Is a just rebuke to our
