SATURDAY, JAN. ?, 1892.
The Situation.

As result of the recent conventions
held il Baton Rouge, we are presented
Two Democratic tickets, each faction
claims to represent the regular Demo-
,cracy of the Stste andi is determined to
make the campaign with some pxpecta-
ton of success.
1t il natural that each faction will
claim that they represent the true Demo
'cracy Of the State. and encourage their
follower by assuring them that victory
lis sure to come. and style the other fac
ton boiters. Was there any bolt at the
convention? il 81 which faction bolted. il
it the convention opened by the
regular chairman of the State Central
Committee who by right was the officer
ito perform that duty, or is it
the one opened by the second
chairman elected by the COM
mittee in the absence of chairman La
'nier? These are questions which are not
decided yet, and until one faction or the
other is recognized by the national con-
'vention, which will only be in July or
'thereabout. we do not see how one or the
other faction will establish to the salts
faction of the mass of the people. Their
claim to be the true and only Democracy
We may therefore consider that there
was no bolt at the Baton Rouge cOnven-
'tiOn, there were two factions Of the De
:1hocracy of the State opposed to one an
other, WHO were never together, and who
- held their cancusses and conventions
separately anu elected their officers with
.out interfering with the other faction
They are therefore both Democratic fac
tons, divided on one question, without
any hope Of ever bringing them together
but Oh the contrary. we expect a tho
.rotigh and bitter campaign.
We firmly believe the Foster faction
is the most popular throughout the STATE
and the campaign will result in favor q
That faction.

The christmas Tree Enter
ltainment.

)iiS VI UHc AuotClt W hOiNy
Schools gave at the College hall a
tree entertainment,
which, we are pleased to say, sur
passed in splendor and brilliancy,
all former years. The programme
was not very long, but was well
selected and perfectly rendered.
1t was Us follows:
Adeste Fidelis-hynin, by the
pupik, was the opening.
The Little Pupils Song, by the
Junior boys, amused the audience
highly.
Recitati6n-by Little Goldie,
captivated the audience with her
splendid rendition.
Two Little Birds-song, by Ju-
Nor girls, was admirably rendered
and the imitation of the birds
songs made this song very inter
esting and was received with
cheerful applause.
Waiting and Watching Chorus,
by senior boys, was good.
Then came the drama entitled
Mrs. 'Higginson's will, which
was admirably rendered by Misses
A. Winlahl, Cecile Bienvenu, Nj.
Wilt, Cecile lie Laureal, Louise
Olivier, Annita Millot and Italia
Bienvenu. The rendition of the
different characters was marked
for the correct intonation and the
talent exhibited by the young Ia
dies in their movements and ac-
ting.
A Dream of Home-Solo, 10y
Master George Gary, was sang
with the correctness and feeling
that would have been creditable
to an actor.
Bells of Time Chorus by Sc.
Nor girls, was another of the
evenings delights.
Here there was an intermissiOI
of several minutes to give the lit
tie ones chance for their fathers
pockets and then to the cake ia
bles and the grab-bags. The la
dies having the bags did a rushing
business. SO much SO. that the,
were compelled to shut up shop
for want of goods, the large guam
tity of toys were soon dispersed
throughout the hall, every child
big and small had a toy, and eve
the grown persons following tn
excitement of the little ones wer
blowing trumpet, ringing be-
or handl ing some other instrumen
of noise. After every one wa
supplied with a lot of toys, an
were induced to invest of a fe,
dimes in some lotteries-for
was no anti affair-the programm
was continued, and next came tn
magnificent tableau and dane

bly,.
Cigarette Mccarthy, solo, b
Tom Dorcy was well rendered.
The song that feched my heal
Chorus, was feelingly sang b
the pupils.
Les Fantasies de 'Cyprienne"
