BLANCHARD NOMINATED.

Senator E. d. White telegraph
his resignation to Gov. Foster
Wednesday morning, to take
effect Tuesday next. At three
o'clock the same evening Gov.
Foster appointed Congressman
N. G. Blanchard from the Fourth
district to succeed Senator White.
The appointment of Mr.. Blan-
chard is q disappointment to the
sugar interest of the state.
The selection of Mr.. Blanchard
is an indication that the Governor
is in the political arena, and has
in mind some political advance
ment for himself, which he seem
to think is of greater interest to
himself than sugar is to the plan
ters of. Southwest Louisiana.

MUNICIPAL ELECTION.

kAwill be seen from the pro-
clamstion which appears in these
columns, an election will be held
in this town on Monday the
second day Of April next for the
election of five trustees to manage
the distinies of this town for one
year. %
It rests with the people to make
their selection, it is for them to
choose and elect on that board
members who will take at heart
the welfare and prosperity OF the
town.
For the last two years the at
fairs of the town were conducted
on strictly business principles,
and we candidly believe, to the
satisfaction of a large majority OF
the people of st. Martinville. The
present council has given 30 much
satisfaction that already a large
number Of our most influential
business people have called upon
them requesting them to again
consent to give another year OF
their services for the good of the
town. What action will be taken
by the present members, whether
they will accept or not, we do not
know, but we trust, however, as
good citizens will consent to sacri-
fee little of their time for the
good of the community in general.
We do not want politicians in
the council, we want business peo-
pie who will manage the affairs o.
the town in a business way, and
we believe that is what our citi-
zens want too.

An Open Letter.

ED. GRAPHIC: Last Saturday
attended a meeting at BraShear
and listened to a discussion on the
political issues by John M. Lon
don and p. F. Greenwood. The
liberal courtesy extended to each
other, commanded the respect of
the audience, though the decision
of the people was almost unani-
nous in favor of the policies advo-
Gated by London. There were
some things however, that were
uncalled for. Mr.. Greenwood, Mr..
Orcutt and Mr.. Rieger went to
Brashear together, and it seems to
have been pre-arranged that Mr..
Greenwood should, at sometime
during his speech attack the char
acter of Mr.. Grisham, Mr.. Rieg-
er S opponent, which he did in a
most vicious manner, accusing
him of intidelity and asserting that
he is a thief. If these men were
prompted by pure motives to lug
such scandal into the campaign,
we cOuld find some eycuSa for
them. But tits our humble opin-
ion that they are more interested
in getting their filthy clutches upon
he salary of the ciunty clerk
IAN they are in the welfare of the
people, and have lost sight of all
manhood, decency and true Amer
icenism in the effort to obtain that
end. j. L. MILLER.

Church manners form an i'm
portant feature in q young person,
and often form an index by which
we can read their character. Some
we notice, enter church in care
less, Indifferent manner, forgetting
it is a house dedicated to the SER
vice of God and should be rever-
enced as place of worship. We
feel sorry for those young persons
often seen in the vestibules and
about our church doors disturbing,
to some extent, the interest OF the
meetings and indulging in their
gymnastic levity. Such conduct
is often the result OF ignorance and
thoughtlessness. A well bred
young man will always conduct
himself in such way as not to at
tract attention at chnrch service.
Go inside or leave the grounds is
a very good rule.

Poor, but Rich.
end

Once, in New England, says q
writer in the "Outlook," | was
driving with an old farmer, and
some of the men of the neighbor.
hood came under criticism. Speak
ing of prominent man in the vii.
lage | asked, ale is man of
meanS!"
"Well, SIR" the farmer replied,
she amt got much money, but
he's mighty fich.''
"He has a great deaf OF land,
then! | asked.
''No, sir, he amt got much land
neither, but still he is mighty
rich
The old farmer, with a a pleased
smile, observed my puzzled look
for a moment and then explained.
"You SCI, he amt got much
money, and he amt got much
land, but still he is rich, because
he never went to bed owing any
man cent in all his life. He
ives as well as he wants to live,
and he pays as he goes; he doesn't t
owe anything, and he amt afraid
of anybody; he tells every man
the truth, and does his duty by
himself, his family, and his neigh
bors, his word is as good as a bond,
and every man, woman and child
in the town looks up to him and
respects him. No, sir, he amt
got much land, but still he is a
mighty rich man, because he's got
all he wants"
I assented to the old farmers
deductions, for l thought them en-
tirely correct. When a man has
all he needs and all he wants he is
certainly rich, and when he lacks
hese things he is certainly poor.

little is at stake in his State, Mr..
Roach, like the rest of his party,
recognizes the "sinch that Repre-
sentative Johnson has on his seat,
and the legislature to be elected
this year will not elect a Senator.
Still, his apathy Is an indication
of this belief that republican sue
cess is assured.
Mr.. B. w. Thompson, treasurer
of the Republican Congressional
Committee, has just returned from
Michigan, where he made himself
thoroughly familiar with the politi
cal situation. He says Michigan,
will elect a solid republican
delegation to the next House. In
1892 Michigan elected five demo-
cratic members of the House, but
signs have not been lacking that
many of those who helped to do it
have become very much ashamed
of their votes.
Hon. John S Wise, formerly of
Va, now of New York, can be as
caustic in his remarks as ever his
father, one of Virginian's celebrat-
ed Governors, was in his most
savage humors. Witness what he
said of the present Cabinet: "Mr.
Cleveland took his Secretary OF
State out of the republican party
and has not yet been able to make
him say Il am democrat He
found an old confederate weeping
above the grave of Jefferson Davis
and made him Secretary of the
Navy. Over his old typewriter
he wasved his magic wand and
transformed him into Secretary
of War, while he went into the
interior of his own consciousness
to involve Secretary who sug-
geSted neither the ice cream of the
frozen north nor the mint julep OF
the sunny south-the sort of a
creation they pickle in alcohol
strange, nameless Hoky poky.
Elected as the opponent of the
trusts, he selected a trust lawyer
as attorney general, and made
Secretary of the Treasury demo
cratic statesman who never owned
an unmortgaged dollar in his life,

WASHINGTON LETTER.
(oUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT. J
Washington, d. c., Oct. 90, '94.-

Washington, d. c., Oct. 90, "a
"HuSh." That is what is heard
everytime anyone approaches a
group of democrats of sufficient
prominence to be taken into the
confidence of their party campaign
managers. They do not wish to
be overheard admitting defeat, al
though they freely do so among
themselves, and are already look
ing around for scapegoat upon
whom they can pack all the blame.
Mr.. Cleveland, and Senator Fanlk-
ner, Chairman of the democratic
campaign committee are running
d neck and neck race for this very
undesirable position, although
Senator Hill and German are also
frequently mentioned in the same
connection; likewise Representa-
tive Wilson, of w. Va.
AT republican congressional
headquarters all the news indicates
that the republican majority in
the next House will be between
twenty and thirty, and if the
democrats cannot do something to
arrest the wholesale desertion of
men who have heretofore acted
with that party the republican ma
jority may go as high as fifty.
Various causes are responsible for
these desertions principal among
which may be mentioned the asser-
tionS of such democratic leaders as
Mr.. Cleveland and Mr.. Wilson,
that tariff tinkering must 90 on.
The attempt to make the nationality
of Mr.. Morton's domestic servants
an issue in the New York cam
paign, and the attempt to stir up
religious prejudice for campaign
use.
There is one Senator who appar-
entity takes no great interest in the
campaign in his State. That is
Roach, of n. Dakota. He only left
Washington Saturday night, hay
ing been here since Congress ad-
journed. The reason for his apathy
may perhaps be found in the fact
that from his point of view very
