How Delegates at Large Should
Be Elected.

We published in full last week
the act of the Legislature calling
constitutional convention, which
provides that the convention shall
consist of one hundred and thirty
four delegates, mnety-e'ght Of
whom shall be elected from the
parishes in accordance with their
representation in the House Of Re
representatives., and thirty-six from
The State at large. Rapides Pac.
ISL having two representatives will
be entitled to two delegates and
the other parishes in accordance
with their representation in the
House. Hence, no difficulty will
he experienced in the selection OF
the ninety eight delegates to re-
present the various parishes, hat
the selection Of those from the
State at large, not having been
provided for by the act, is necessa
rily matter of discretion, which
must DC determined by the State
Central Committees Of the differ.
ent political parties.
Several suggestions have been
made as to the manner III Which
they should be chosen; but speak
ing only for the Democratic part,
aud assuming that it ought to and
will control the convention, We be-
lieve that the safest plan and that
which will give the most universal
satisfaction, is for the State Cen
trail Committee to call a cOnven
ton at such time and place rs may
be agreed upon, for the nomina
ton of the delegates at large, t.
be selected either from the con
gressional or senatorial districts
as in the wisdom of the convention
may be deemed best.

Death of General De Trobriand.

General Philippe Regis De Tro
BRAND died last Thursday, at Bay
port, l.. l., at the residence of his
daughter, Mrs. G. A. Post, with
whom he was spending the sum.
.ner. The deceased was born in
Trance in 1916. Ordinarily, the
lea,h of a man who had not
achieved any special distinction
during his military career, would
not create IL ripple of excitement.
But there is one incident connect
ed with his official life in New Or.
leans, by which he will ever be re.
membered by LouiSianiaus who
were actors upon the stage of lite
ut that time.
In 1875, while President Grant
was seeking to uphold by the mail.
ed hand OF Federal power, the
usurpation of Kellogg-then in i'm
minent danger of collapse from
the righteous Indignation of an
oppressed people-against the 10
gally elected Governor John Nc
Emery, he instructed General En-.
DRY, then i'll command, to sustain
Kellogg, by force, if necessary tn
prevent his overthrow. He selec.
ed General De Trobriand, ii subol
dinate officer, to execute this mis-
sion. The Democrats had posses,
sion of the State House and would.
of course, have recognized Meme
ry as against Kellogg. In fact,
the Democrats had organized the
House with ex.Mayor Wilt as
Speaker. At 3 o'cIuck, on the af
ternoon of Jan uary Arb, 1873
while the House WAS in recess
waiting for the committee on ere
dentials to report, General DE Tro
BRAND entered the hall of the
House with II file of soldiers and
against the protest of Speake,
Wilt, elected the Democrats witt
were legally elected and Installed
those wnu were returned us elect
I'd by The Republican Returning
Board, thus sustaining Kellogg in
his stolen authority. There is
however, no Odium to be attached
to the action of the deceased Gen
eral, as he only oheyed the Orltf'
of his superior, which every sol
dler must do implicitly, nor seel
% know the reason why. 4
