The Primary Law.

The people and press of Louisi-
ana have been wasting lots of time
and space discussing the primary
election law. We say they are
wasting time because the ring bos-
ses do not care what the people
say; they generally accept what
the bosses are willing to give them,
and some time they thank the
Lord that it is not worse.
There is no need to-day for any
primary or convention, there is no
need for any law that will allow a
few manupulators to dictate to
the people who are going to be
their candidates. What we need
is an honest general election law,
that will forbid primaries aud con-
vention and force all candidates to
go directly before the people for
election.
There is but one party in Lou
isiana today. the Democratic party
divided in two factions. aud both
factions composed entirely of
white men, with a qualified vote,
why, then, not force all candidates
to submit their claims to the mass
of the people and allow the peo-
pie to select and elect the best
men to fill all public offices.
We need no convention nor pri-
mary law, what we need is a good
law that will protect every one and
more honesty in the political af-
fairs of our State. Make good
honest laws and enforce honesty
III political affairs, even il it is me-
cessary to send some of the trick
sters and manupulators to do duty
at Hope Or Angola and the affairs
OF the State in the hands of the
good people will run smoothly

The Shanty Gone.

Monday morning the police and
force of men made an assault up
on the Orso shanty on the bayou
bank and in few hours there was
nothing left Of this old building
which had stood at the end of the
bridge for more than forty years.
This old building stood on the
bayou bank, and the piece of
ground in dispute between the
town and the church. The church
had recently sold this ground to
Mrs. Alex. Faucheaux, a colored
woman who refused to obey the
orders of.the town authorities to
remove this building, which had
been built then by consent of the
town authorities more than forty
years ago.
The tearing down of this bull
ding by the town will probably
bring on some litigation that will
clear the title of the bayou banks
which are claimed by the town and
by the church.
In the general provisions of the
Town Council we find the follow
ing:
ITO determine the completion

of streets, sidewalks and alleys, to
fix the squaring and to prevent
any encroachment upon or stop

Ign Powers, who had 5000 plurality

Labor, seems not TO have been affected
any more than the rest. His ordinary
plurality of 5000 is cut down to 1000.
Democrats have really the most
cause for congratulation from the re-
