HON ANDREW ]. PRICE.

1t is very probable that if Mr.. Price
would consult his own personal interests
without regard to those of his party and
his many friends and admirers he would
decline a denomination. He has bust
ness interests which demand his atten-
ton, being one Of the largest sugar
planters in the state. Notwithstanding
the latter fact and all the pressure
brought to be bear he has turned cold
shoulder to the boilers and is loyal to
the party We are far from thinking
that Mr.. Price is the only man who could
be elected, but by reason of his services
to his constituents and his great popular
ity, he is the most available candidate for
congress in this district.
We are pleased to see the unanimity
with which the press endorses his candi-
dacy, and we trnst he may he induced to
once more lead the democracy of his dis
trict to victory.

As the campaign progresses the news
from Illinois and Wisconsin continues to
be cheering. The Democratic leaders in
the former state declare that they will
elect fourteen Congressman which is the
same number as in the present House,
while the Wisconsin State committee
reports that five or six Democrats will
be returned from that State instead Of
two, the number fixed upon two weeks
ago. This shows that the prospects Of

NEW YORK DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION.

The convention which met at Saratoga
on Tuesday was large and enthusiastic,
and there were no diseOrdant elements.
All the factions are now united and will
reverse the decision of last year. Senator
Hill was chairman of the convention and
made ringing speech which was loudly
aPplauded. Among other things the
senator sad:
with a united democracy and q full
vote New York is still a democratic state.
and If we are true to ourselves will this
year resume her place in the democratic
column. Our opponent, by the vigorous
beating of bogus political tOm-tOms and
the insistanee upon petty and misleading
local issues, seek to divert the public at
tentiOn from the unavoidable record
which they made during the recent four
years control of the Federal government.
The people, however, have not forgotten
the faet that 1t was republican adj
ministratiOn which, In that Inflated year
OF 1880, saddled the country with the IN
wise and vicious legislation which has
since crippled prosperity, endangered its
finances and augmented it's public bur
dens.'
OF Cleveland's administration he says:
decentralization of President CleYe
land has been clean handed economical,
patriotic and painstaking. The depart
ments of the national government have
been conducted with success, and the
demOcrntic party as whole is entitled
to the confidence of the masses whose
interest it endeavOEs faithfully to serve.
At the present writing the ticket has
not been named, but we hope to have it
before going to press.
The LATEsT.-Mr. Whitney has de-
elined to ben candidate for governor
He says that Hill is the man The con
test now seems to be between Hill and
John Boyd Thatcher Both are strong
men.

THE following from the Monroe Bale
tin is a fair sample OF the manner in which
the sugar planters bolt is looked upon:
''They have also aligned themselves with
the gOld-bugs and worst of all they have
been hostile to anticipation legislation, SO
much desired by the cotton planters.
They denOunce the IIneome tax and seem
determined to fight everything which
onr people approve Of Thus it is ap-
parent that the sugar planters, while
prOelaiming that they are engaged in an
industrial fight, are really taking upon
themselves to fight all other interests in
the state. There are some of the fore
most men in the state in this sugar
movement. Dut they have made a
serious blunder. They ought to have
made an independent fight, not a fight
in the republican party. Three indie
pendent congressman would have done
them more gOO1 than dozen republi-
cans. Their movement is doomed"

DEMOCRATS FOR SUGAR.


The following is an extract from let-
ter from Congressman eatehings, Of
Mississippi, and may be considered fair
expedition of the views Of large nnm-
Der. Of democratic congressman;
sgam delighted at this action ofthe
planters. If that element in Louisiana
goes over to the republican party it
makes the way easy for free sugar. They
osn not, in my opinion, elect republicans
to the house, and democrats who are
elected in spite of their opposition will
be under no obligation to watch after
their selfish interests. The demands of
the Louisiana planters have been an en-
barrassment to the democratic party
and / shall not be at all grieved to have
them cut loose. Even if they should
succeed in sending republicans to con-
gress it would not be matter of great
consequence to the democratic party. !
don't think there is any danger of our
being dependent upon that delegation to
hold the next house. However, the state
is democratic without the sugar planters,
and we can very well afford to have
them in opposition"
The boiling sugar planters viii prob
ably come to their senses when it is too
late. They have alisnatsd their friends
on the democratic side, and what do they
expect to gain' Certainly not the restO-
ration of the bounty. Even if their new
found friends were in the majority they
would never pass another bounty law,
for that would be political suicide. Nor
would the republican party ever put
duty on sugar. If the boilers succeed in
electing oae OF more congressman the
democratic majority will be in mood to
repeal the 40 per cent ad valorem duty
at the December session.
The Lake Charles echo. [volume] (Lake Charles, Parish of Calcasieu, La.) 1876-1898, 1894-09-28

That free sugar is true Republican
protection doctrine is clearly shown by
the following plank in the platform
adopted by the New York Republican
State convention, which reads:
eve denounee the Federal admins
tration for surrendering an annual rev
enue of s., O10, 900 on weOl and imposing
a burden nearly ten times greater by
levyiRg tax on sugar the eommonest
household necessity
And yet the boiling sugar planters in
this State say that these Republicans
are their friends, and will protect sugar
If they desert the Democratic party. The
mistake the sugar planters made was in
leaping before they looked, and now it
be diffienlt fer them to get back ON the
grouad that they abandoned.--.Staies.

OK the 18th inst the district court of
Avoyelles parish tried and sentenced to
be hung, Joseph NORM, n white man
(Or boy) for the crime of rape. The case
was-an aggravated one, thevictim of the
outrage being only eight years. The
crime was proven beyond the possibility
of doubt. NORM made confession of
his guilt. We wish to call the attention
of those northern papers to this case,
who claim that capital punishment for
the crime of rape is only visited upon
the negroes.
