of choosing q senator There is some
doubt in that State as to which is the
proper date under the law, and for that
reason the Legislature has decided to
have one election on January 18th and an
other d week later. Congressman T. w
Carmack has been nominated by the
Democrats and will be elected TO succeed
Senator TURKEY.
Nominally there are thirty vacancies TO
occur in the Senate on March 3rd next

President of the United States in spite OF
everything that the people might have
done What the people would have done
10 tic electors; is another story.
1t was a fo-eEone conclusion, however,
that the Republican electors would vote
for Mckinley and the Democratic cleo
tors for Bryan, and SO the election was
n mere matter OF form and the people
at large gave it little thought.
The system has some advantages and
viii probably never be changed. 1t en-
phaszcs individual State sovereignty. it
enables us to ascertain the result of The
election for President very much sooner
than could possibly be the case If the
President We're elected by popular vote,
and last OF all it gives us the opportunity
OF hoHoring a number of amiab bic gentle
men in the several States OF the Union
by comforting upon them the privilege
and distinction of casting our votes for
us.
The electors met yesterday and the Re-
rublicans cast their votes for Mckinley
while the Democrats cast their votes for
Bryan. Mckinley received 2a2 votes and
Bryan received l55 votes. and SO McKin-
ley was elected.

rHrLOuIssANa PLAN.

a correspondent writing from New Or
leans says that the new poll tax provision
in regard TO suffrage which went into
operation in Louisiana on January LIST,
has cut down the number OF votes in the
State nearly, il not quite, one-half. The
constitutional suffrage provision which
became operative January i, 1898 shutting
out certain illiterates. cut down the reg
istered vote from $4,000 TO 100000, and in
New Orleans from s2.0o9 to 4l,o0o. It is
now reported that only a0,556 of the regis
tered voters of New Orleans paid their
poll tax before December 81. 1900. and 50
only that number will be entitled to vote
at the congressional elections in 1902.
ii is further stated that the registered
negro vote. which was 1900 in 1885, and
which was reduced to s0o0 in 1899, will be
further reduced by the operation of the
poll-tax law TO a few hundred in 1902.
This in The city of New Orleans. Reports
from the country districts are said to be
