The plaintiff, J. C. Triche, and one of the defendants, S. II. Labiche, were the candidates for the office of clerk of court of the parish of St. Charles at the Democratic primary election on the 2Sth of January, 1908.
The Democratic parish committee met at the courthouse on January 31, 1908, for the purpose of canvassing the returns and promulgating the result, when S. H. Labiche, plaintiff’s competitor, appeared before the committee and protested against the election, and asked the committee to order a new election, on the ground that the election of the 28th of January had not been legal.
