LOUISIANA ELECTION
Democrats Carry the State By
About Three to One,
'
HON. V. W. HEARD ELECTED GOVERNOR.
Storm and Flood lijtorf.-r.il and Vote Was
Very First Test of
Suffrage Amendment.
The election which occurred Tues- !
day throughout Louisiana for state and
local officers, judges, legislature and
municipal offices was the dullest and
quietest ever held and ths vote cast
the smallest.
This was brought about by the new
sufferage provision, which has cut
down the number of votes oue-half,
by the lack of interest in the election
and by the severe storm which raged
throughout the state preventing many
voters from reaching the polls.
In New Orleans only half a vote was
polled, 20,000 out of 38,000 persons
registered. They were divided as fol
lows:
, Heard, Democrat, 10,000.
Caffery, Republican fusion, 3,000.
Reems, regular Republican, 1,000.
Democratic plurality, 13,000.
The Democrats elect every one of
their senators and representatives.
The storm and consequent floods in
terrupted communication with many
of the country districts, and the total
vote will scarcely exceed 80,000 as
against 207,000 a year ago and with a
total registration of 140,000.
The state senate will be unanimously
Democratic, and the house of 105
members will contain about three
Populists and two Republicans. This
assures the re-election of Senator Mc-
Enery to the United States senate
and Governor M. J. Foster to succeed
Senator Caffery. The newly elected
state government is:
Governor, W. W. Heard; lieutenant
governor, Albert Estopinal; secretary
of state, T. T. Michel, re-elected; au
ditor, James Frazee; treasurer, Ledonx
Smith; attorney general, Walter Guin;
superintendent of public education, J,
Y. Calboun.
These officials go into office in May,
and the newly elected legislature
meets then. The constitutional amend
ment authorizing the city of New Or
leans to issue $14,000,000 to drain and
sewer the city was carried by a vote of
100 to 1.
ON TO PRETORIA.
Vague Reports Indicate That Rob
erts Is Preparing to Take
Up His March.
A London special of Tuesday says:
At lost Lord Roberts seems to be on
the ese of moving his main body •£
troops toward Pretoria.
Unless all the usually reliable
sources of information and all the in
dications smuggled past the censor are
at fault, the British army, within a
few days, will be marching northward.
The troops have been well rested
during the few weeks’ stay in Bloem
fontein, and unless the British pro
ceed northward now the strategies of
the Boers will make itself felt. The
advance will probably be made in
parallel columns, with an advance
guard, sweeping northward to the east
and west, the force amounting to 75,-
000 men. Exactly what part General
Buller will take is as yet a secret which
no one is able to solve.
The government has just published
a dispatch from Lord Roberts pro
nouncing censure upon Sir Redvers
Buller and Sir Charles Warren, two of
his most important subordinate com
manders. The dispatch, written Feb
ruary 13th, has been in the hands of
the war office for five weeks. Just
why it is published now, in the middle
of the campaign, is not understood,
unless it is expected that Generals
Buller and Warren will ask to be re
lieved of their commands. The revela
tion of their incapacity must tend to
undermine the confidence of the troops
in their leadership.
From the Hague comes the news
that the Boer delegates refuse to make
public the object of their mission.
They hope to be received by Queen
Wilhelma, but nothing in this direction
has yet been decided upon.
aluer is sympathetic.
Ex-Secretry of War Says He I Sorry Foi
Admiral Dewey.
“I think Admiral Dewey has made
a grave mistake in announcing hiR can
didacy for the presidency,” said ex-
Secretary of War Alger, in the course
of an interview. “It looks as though
the wealth of praise showered on the
admiral since his return from the east
has turned his head. It is harder to
resist prosperity than adversity. I
feel sorry for him, for his ambition
will certainly be unfulfilled. His ac
tion is ill-advised. I predict for him
in his presidential aspirations a mel
ancholy disappointment.”
ATKINSON CONTROLS PAPER.
Majority Stock of The Atlanta
Journal Disposed of By
Hoke Smith.
The majority iutercst in the Atlanta
(Ga.) Journal has become the property
of H. M. Atkinson, Morris Bran
don and James R, Gray. This means
the retirement of Hoke Smith from the
newspaper business.
George H. Dickinson, a New York
newspaper man well known through
out the country, will take charge as
general manager. He has been in At
lanta for some days under a contract
which provided that if the deal should
be made he would take charge of the
entire plant.
A few weeks ago it was announced
that a well founded rumor credited
Hoke Smith, who owned 530 of the
1,000 shares, with disposing of his
stock. This announcement drew a
negative from The Journal, but de
spite the denial from headquarters,
the rumor was generally believed.
After considerable negotiations on
the subject, a contract was entered into
by which Mr. Atkinson and his asso
ciates secured the right to purchase
Mr. Smith’s stock, at a stated figure,
any time up to and including April
16th. On last Friday Mr. Smith was
notified that his stock would be
bought.
It can be stated positively that there
will be no immediate changes in the
forcejjbusiness or editorial; that is,un
lass there are voluntary withdrawals
fro* the paper. What may develop in
a month or a few months is a matter
for the future.
H. M. Atkinson, one of the three
new owners of The Journal, is proba
bly the best known young business
man in the south. He is at the head
of, or connected with, a tremendous
variety of enterprises.
He is president of the Georgia
Electric Light Company, which holds
the city’s contract; he is president of
the Southern Banking and Trust Com
pany; president of the Tifton, Thom
asville and Gulf railroad; president of
the Union Lumber Company; presi
dent and treasurer of the Atlanta Sub
urban Laud corporation; secretary and
treasurer of the Collins Park and Belt
Line; treasurer of the Georgia and
Carolina Planters’ Company, and vice
president of the Third National bank.
In addition to the foregoing, he has
charge of the large real estate interests
of T. Jefferson Coolidge, Jr., of Bos
ton.
Messrs. Brandon and Gray are prom
inent and well known Atlanta attor
neys.
PARIS SHOW OPENS.
The Crowning Exposition of AH
Countries—America Is Lib
erally Represented,
At noon Saturday France opened to
the world the crowning exposition of
all countries. The most favorable
weather conditions prevailed and in
numerable bright colored domes and
minarets glistened in the sunshine.
Paris was early astir with people wend
ing their way toward the Elysee and
in the direction of the exposition in
the hope of witnessing the presiden
tial procession at some part of its
journey.
All the public buildings and num
berless private houses were decorated
with trophies of flags, chiefly the tri
color. The neighborhood of the ex
position was especially gay with bunt
ing while most of the pavilions them
selves were surmounted with floating
banners.
Within the exposition grounds all
was bustle and animation, in a su
preme effort to clear away all unsightly
obstacles in order to leave an unob
structed road and an external appear
ance of completeness to the palaces for
the presidential party in its passage
through the grounds.
The unfinished condition of the ex
position on inauguration day is regret
able and perhaps misleading. It will
be at least a month before anything
but the buildings is to be seen. The
day’s ceremonies were a peculiar mix
ture of sumptuous splendor and wide
spread confusion elsewhere.
Americans, especially, will be proud
of their country’s display at the world’s
fair, for the United States stands sec
ond only to France herself in number
of exhibitors, which treble those of
any foreign country.
America has three times the number
of exhibitors that France had at the
world’s fair in Chicago. She occupies
539,052 square feet with her 47 dis
tinct exhibitiou spaces, 33 in the main
exposition grounds, 14 in the Vincen
nes annex, excluding the ground cov
ered by our eagle surmounting the na
tional pavilion on the Qua d’Orsay.
American enterprise, liowever is not
oaly shown in the size of her repre
sentation, but in the preparedness of
her installation as compared with that
of most of the other countries, and it
can safely be said that but for the dila
toriness of French workmen and meth
ods the United States exhibits would
have been exposed in their ehow cose*
on the opeaing day.
