Yesterday word was sent TO Hartford

in the races OF the Grand Circuit in this
city last week had been rescinded and the

some deliberation on the subject.

THE ELECTION.

The primary election here, last
Tuesday was one of quietness, but
great energy and interchangeable work
from ''early morn till dewy eve"
| Workers of both factions were unre.
uniting in their efforts to bring out a
full vote General Jastremski received
majority of the votes cast in the
Parish, not as large a majority as
was expected two weeks ago, The
splendid discipline and concentrated
work of the Blanchard people cut
down the majority very materially.
Had the election been held two weeks
ago, Jastremski s majority would have
been 400, had the canvass lasted two
weeks longer it is probable Blanchard
would have carried the Parish. Now
that the matter is settled in favor of
Blanchard and his associatse, we bow
to the majority and hence forward we
are for the nominees as declared at
the polls and will be found advocat-
ing, to the best of our ability, their
election by the people. The Senator.
ial race was won by Hons. John A.
McIlhenny and Jos. A. Provost, who
have carried the district by handsome
majorities. Thus the people by prim-
airy over the entire State have declared
their preference for Mr.. Blanchard for
Governor, Mr.. Sanders for Lieutenant
Governor and Hon. NJ. j. Foster for
United States Senator to succeed him.
self, and we look forward to a brill
liant era in our State under the leader
ship of these favored sons of Louisi-
ana. The election Of the minor State
officers with exception of Auditor and
Superintendent of Education are some
what in doubt, it is possible that a
second primary may be held for Treas
urer of the State.

GEN. JASTREnSKPS LOYALTY TO
DEMOCRACY

Gen. Jastremski's acceptance OF
the result of the primary election
was both prompt and graceful and
has called forth from all quarters
the high praise it deserves. The
General did not wait for the pro-
mitigation of the returns, but as
soon as he saw that he had been
defeated he admitted this defeat,
and rendered his services to Judge
Blanchard and the rest of the Dem
ocratic ticket. In doing this Gen.
Jastremski abandons none of the
views he has entertained, but will
continue to contend for them but
he bows to the will of the Demo-
cratic voters and refuses to sulk,
like Achilles, in his tent. This
was what those who knew him best
looked fer; AID they were not dis
appointed.
The campaign that he made was
brilliant one, and while it did not
win, it was successful far beyond
what any one expected at its be-
ginning, proving that he had struck
many popular chords. 1t was. as
he says, an educational campaign,
intended to interest the voters 10
public affairs and to educate them
on the issues of the day; and it
has accomplished this good work,
whatever it's result in the matter Of
candidates may be. BY accepting
the decision so promptly and so
gracefully, Gen. Jastremski has
not only proved himself the devoted
Democrat his friends believed him
to be, but has done great good to
the cause of primaries by showing
that the finding of the people is &C.
cepted at once and does not leave
behind the bitterness so often en-
gendered by conventions Times

CROP NOTES.

The season of 1904 is opening most
auspiciously for our farmers and
planters. The winte- just past has
been SO favorable for agricultural
operations, that much work has been
done, in the way of blowing, ditching,
cleaning up, that our farmers find
themselves considerably ahead in
their work, indeed we have heard
some remarks that they were as far
advanced now as they were last year
on the LIST of March. This is very
encouraging and presages good crop
year. for the winter blowing has put
the soil in excellent condition and the
crops will be put it in good shape ard
according to the old adage ga crop
we'll planted is half made. The
prospect for prices are very good, all
the staples are in good demand and
bring fair prices. Cotton will be q
remunerative crop this year, as every
thing points to that agreeable desira-
tum. Some enthusiasts even declare
that the next crop will bring all the
way from 10 to 20 cts. per pound. Be
this as it may, We are certain to OBJ.
tain pretty good prices for this staple.
Now that the bug bear Of reciprocity
is settled, we have taken the plunge
and still survive and the matter of
sugar duty settled for at least, five
years, we may hope for a remunera-
tive price for cane. indeed, the large
concerns Of Godchaux Bros, Of New
Orleans, whose system covers an i'm
mense territory Of the sugar belt and
the Sterling Central Factory Of Frank
lin are already in the field for 1904 for
contracts Offering minimum price
of three dollars per ton for cane and
willing to extend contract on this
basis for three years, with this addi-
tional encouragement, that should the
price Of sugar produce greater figure
on the basis Of 50 cts per ton for cent
Of price Of sugar on the New Orleans
exchange they will accord that to the
raisers Of cane. This is very en-
couraginS and should satisfy our cane
raising people. Rice planters share
with the others the advantages Of the
resent season and they are we'll ad-
vanced in their work and waiting
only for the frost period to pass in |
order to put in their early seed. We
predict that unless the season should
prove unprecedented in draughts and
other drawbacks we shalt have . phe-
year for all crops. -
