rising, presented Mr. Foster, ae the governor elect to MR. STICK CHARLES E. ItJXI asking him, on behalf of tbe state of Louisiana, to administer tbe oath of office. Tbe ceremony was quit impressive, and the crowd remained at serious attention as the solemn oath waa taken.

Lleatenaut Governor Fariange then took tbe oath, and a salute of cannon was fired in honor of the new administration, rue band plared the crowd eueering Uie familiar air ta tbe echo. Governor Foster, accompanied by Ex Governor Xlcholls. advanced to the front of the stand and commenced reading hie In augural address, aa follow a Governor Foster's Inanenral Meaeage. Ladles and Fellow Citizens: Called by tbe voice of the people of this state to the chief magistracy, enter upon the dis charge or the duties or tne omo with a full sens of th responsibilities which it en talis. This sense of reaponaibillty la accentu ated when I consider the faithful and sue emafnl administration of mv rt rede res nr.

and when I recollect that my efforts to per form my duty will necessarily Drought in contrast with tbe anility and selr sacrl nce with which he has discharged the functions of his high office. I feel, however, that th burden which rest upon me will be lightened by th result of the labors of the past four years. During that period, the prudent and eco nomical conduct of th nnances of the state has restored its current expense to a easb basis, within th limits of th revenue. Tbe revenue have been honestly oellected and aa honestly disbursed. The leve sya tern, tbe eleemosynary and the educational Institution have been placed In an ad vanced condition or useiuinee ana successful operation.

Aa in 1877. when this people Waa seeking to throw off the yoke of th oppressor, your bolcLyat FaUDBHT A9I SAOACIOUB UATBS9HtP brought us to restored liberty, to peace and honor; so in th past two years, by yonr inflexible eoarage, by your devotion to principles, by your love for the good nam of this fair state, it has been vouchsafed nnt yon to lift na out of th slough of moral neapond. to save us from that degradation which woald bav rsnlt4 from making this people the partial pan ta In the spoils of a great gambling corporation, a pensioner npn it bounty.

Great as is tbe credit due all those who straggled to resist tbe temptation of th lottery offer I cannot forget that it was the reaelnt and courageous stand taken by yon in your message to th legislator in 1890. which first arrested nd riveted tbe attention not nly of th people of Louisiana, but of th whole anion, to th imminent danger of th struggle before them. uuin mh tremen dous straggle whleh th people of tnl siaw ui.ua iu uj. Ajouisiann Lottery Company la now a matter of national repute. Th war for mastery between a free and independent atac and a powerful gam bllua mroorstloa hu nuuul ints suit gives rise to a sense Of profound gratl wui ivr ui an wis and merciful Erovldenee who gv strength, to win th victory.

3anr tracers ct of tbe Uane involved and the heroism and self saeriric by whleh th triumph was achUved seems to not inopportnne. In opposition to the Christian prsoapta. nobl principles and teachings of the rawl ernment ef or fathers, the nnlqu apeo tade was presented of vast garoblSar iok out to capture and eon trol th des uvea of on of th states of this niuon, a at the Ume to subvert and destroy tbe virtue and morality ef the people. The struggle was long, bitter and desperate, and for two weary years waa waged with rentlea fury and nnoomwm i si flereeneaa. ft To day we may Jnstlr congratulate ourselves that under divine Providence right baa prevailed over wrong.

We rejoice with the people of the union that Louisiana la free and th lottery la doomed. It ia an axiom ofpoliusal set.no. that th wealth of atar lie in th virtue, integrity and Industry of its citizens. The lottery amendment aimed a mortal blow as all tbe essentials of prosperity, and It ta safe to say that tbe rsople of this state, aa a whole, now coincide with the eeneur rent opinion of th rest of the world that the defeat of th Morris proposition waa the only honest and honorable eouxe to adopt.

Nor can we pass in silence th Invaluable services rendered to thla great cause bv an inoorrnpuble and Independent press throughout the union, whloh saw lurking tn this glittering proposition men ace to tbe repaulioan Institutions ef a sister state and a covert assault upon the bonor and liberty of a fre people. Fellow citizens, in the destruction of tbe lottery company I believe there ha dis appeared the last as tags of that appalling era of reconstruction which did so much aggravate the deaolatlona whleh the war bad produced. This last baneful and cursed heritage of that dread period had been destroy.

It cannot bat be believed that the destruction of tbe lottery has removed the most potest agency ef the political corruption In our midst, but also ta moss Hnou oootaoi to the moral and material development of this people. Tbe divisions and dissensions wbteb bar so unfortunately separated our people into hostile political camp on this subject bar lag thus happily disappeared, there la reason why the bitterness engendered by th contest should not give way t. an era ef good feeling, reconciliation and harmony. from the in a nans th lottery, and Justly rejoicing tn tbe pi an did viotoaj won by her eltlsona.
