PO0R, CONSOLATION:

The primaries last Saturday did not give
the resultS expected to the leaders of the
faction that ordered them. The one who
expected to receive the most votes came ou,
last on the hst.-Lafayette Advertiser.
If Bro. Van der Cruyssen can
draw any consolation from the re-
suits of the primaries Of the 14th Of
December he is certainly entitled
to it all.
In 1899, after the hottest cam
paign in the history of Louisiana.
the vote received by both Foster
and McEnery was 1928. 1t is con-
coded that a full vote was polled.
Adding the 40 votes cast for Breaux
amounts to 1868. Allowing an in
crease of say IS voters we have in
this parish to-day 1743 voters. On
the 14th of December both candi-
dates for clerk received 1859 votes,
leaving 554 ballots uncast. Believ-
ing that every one of the 1850 per-
sons whoSvoted is a Democrat and
will vote the straight Democratic
ticket in April. Gas The Gazettewill
not insult those who voted at the
primaries by Questioning their party
fealty) and believing that at least
one-half of the 554 who did not vote
on the 18th, and who are all Demo-
Gratis with the exception of the 40 who
voted for Breaux and Leonard, will
cast their votes for the regular NOM
inees of the party, thus leaving to
The Advertisers friends 277 voters
rs the maximum -of their following
in this parish. Reasoning on this
basis, which is fair demonstration
of the results in April, the majority
of the regular nominees will be 962.
And in the face of these figures
The Advertiser is feeling jubilant
Your philosophy, Bro. Van der
Cruyssen, is superb. 1t is only
equalled b tbat of the man who
had only enc shirt. This man, we
are told, had hung his shirt on the
fence 70 dry. Suddenly his little
boy ran in the house and said in an
excited manner: "Papa, the COW
has eaten your shirt !" With stole
indifference he replied: tt'Nothing,
my son, man who has property
must expect to lose some" A man
who has votes must expect to lose
them, thinks The Advertiser. !

Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is
famous for its cures of bad colds.
1t opens the secretions, relieves the
lungs and aids nature in restoring
the system to healthy condition.
If freely used as soon as the cold is
contracted and before it has become
settled in the system, it greatly les
sens the severity of the attack and
has often cured in single day what
would have been a severe cold.

constituents of the twenty-four Senators in

have been received to date. The alma

neatly printed and contains large
amount of useful information FOR all.
The liberal advertising patronage ac-

worth of the publication is appreciated
by business men generally. The Truth
is generally in the front rank of enter
prise upon all occasions and the alma
nae for 1896 is no exception to the rule.

speeches concerning the weakness and
the dishonesty OF his countrymen in the
United States The case of MI Bay
ara dare not be dropped short of such
action by this government as will teach
him and all other ambassadors that
| their mission in foreign climes Is to
stand up Loyalty and boldly for the
whole. people they represent, and not
simply for some one faction or party
In view OF the present grave differen-
ccs between this nation and Great Brit
ain, it seems almost incredible that the
president should wish to continue at the
English court an ambassador who,
within a few weeks, had gone out of his
way to explain to the people of England
that his countrymen were stubborn and
headstrong, that they needed strong
man to govern them and that the great
majority of them, being believers in
Protection, were in effect dishonest,
while American legislation was en-
trusted by them to chafferers, not to
statesmen. With what grace could Mr..
Bayard, after this deliyerance, enter
with confidence the presence of Lord
Salisbury and lay before that willy old
diplomat business of Importance con-
cerning the United States? Could not
the English premier turn Mr.. Bayard's
approach into an immediate jest by re-
minding him of the badness of the ma
ton he was serving and by commiser-
ating him upon the kind of government
with which that nation was afflicted?
1t seems to us that there never was a
clearer case of self-achieved dlsqualiti-
cation for an important trust than is
presented in the case of Ambassador
Bayard. following his recent speeches.
While it is true that at the time he
spoke, there seemed to be no appear
ance of trouble between his government
and the government of her majesty. 1t
is equally true that the situation to-
day is radically different. There now
exists between the two nations the most
serious trouble, trouble everywhere
conceded to involve within it the germ
of possible war. In such a situation,
Mr.. Bayard stands by his own act ut
terly dscredited. He does not COM
mand the confidence of his own coun-
trymen, and in the ludicrous light of his
present dilemma he certainly cannot
hope for sympathy from England. AS
an ambassador he is without one Of the
requisites that make ambassadors valu-
able; and if the president does not pos
sess sufficient discernment to perceive
the necessity Of replacing him, congress
itself should take the national dignity
into its own keeping so far as it can
do this under the constitution.
