sertion that Foster is the victor and
will be the Democratic candidate for
governor on April 10. The follows
ing from the New Orleans States
one of the most rabid McEnery
papers is a plain indication Of the
weakness Of that faction :
Fuller returns from the country
parishes have largely increased the
Foster ticket, and leave the returns
in doubt. 1t is at least certain shat
neither ticket will have a majority
Of over two thousand, and an official
cunt can alone settle the matter.
It was our hope, hal McEnery
would be, and is still our belief, that
he has been, chosen as the standard
bearer of the Democracy of Louis
lana. But the preservation Of
Louisiana from a renewal Of radical
and negro rule and her electoral
vote to the Democratic party are Of
infinitely more Importance in our
eyes than the triumph Of our faction
iii the State. Hence, the States, if
it turns out that the Foster ticket
has been selected by the Democracy
as the regular ticket, will support
that ticket with what ability and
vigor it possesses.

HUSTLE!

Within the past tour or five
months there has been considerable
talk about a boom in Vermilion.
Meetings have been held, committees
have been appointed, and this com
munity has been in the throes of
spasmodic attacks Of energy, at
times really alarming. Through
private correspondence, influential
men from the more northern States
have been induced to visit this par
ish, and were unanimous in saying
that 'the half was never told" and
have gone back as missionaries to
tell of the wonders OF Southland.
Scarcely a month goes by without
several prospeetors dropping down
upon US, and declaring their inten-
ton to settle among US. Then we
have several railroad committees on
our hands, and last week a sugar re.
fnery was agitated, and-a commit
tee appointed. We give the above
as news, for it is safe to say that
one half Of the people in u own
town are not aware Of these facts
except as rumored ia a vague way.
And light here is the reason so
many booms have exploded and
gone up in smoke. There are about
a handful Of men in this parish to
whom are left its development.
They are at the head Of every at
tempt to interest capitalists and Sc
cure for this section the recognition
Is impo rtance demands, and yet
when they look to the very men who
will be most benefited liy u ad.
vancement, for support and encour-
agement, they are met with the ut.
most apathy and indifference. And
then when other industries would
soon spring up, and oar parish would
experience an influx of immigration
Of thrifty farmers who would make
our parishes bloom, and insure con-
tinued growth aud prosperity. But
we've got TO hustle.
