The Difference.

T. We have heard frequent inquifies' to
know the difference between The Demo,
cratic and Republican parties, since the
executive Committee of the Democratic
party in aals State adopted the Republican
platform in regard*to she political equality
| ofnegroes:, We see no difference in this res.
pect. Both parties are struggling to obtain
and hold possession of the same office or
offices /; and according to a we'll known law
Of physics that two bodies cannot occupy
the same space at the same time, they are
bound to oppose each other.
We are of the opinion that if there
were no salaries attached to public offices,
or no means Of making money out of them,
there would be no party lines, no party
platforms, 10 party nominations, and the
Offices themselves would go begging. An
honest, competent and efficient official is
all the people want. If a candidate for
office has these qualifications, and the
voter knows it, it would be- best for him
to vote accordingly, without being governed
by the dictates Of selfconstituted party
managers.

A Free American Citizen I'LL as "a
Right to Vote as HE PReasess

We never attend political meetings or
caucuses of any kind, and belong body and
soul to no political party. We Ike e be.
free to think and act for ourself. The man
ayers of political parties tell US to do one
thing to day, and the contrary thing to-
morrow, In evidence of this, any Democrat
previous to three or four weeks ago, who
would have expressed: himself in favor Of
negro suffrage, and siiegnoes holding office,
would have been called asnegro himself, os-
tracised socially aud expelled from the
parry. On the 10TH of last month, the
Democratic Central Committee of this State
decided that negroes would be adnrtted
to seats in their body. seats in the State
convention to be held in New Orleans this
month, ard would be elevated to public
office by the Democratic party. We have
no objection to this because, as indipidu-
ais and not infaliible either, they can do as
they please but when they, as the self
constituted managers of a party, make such
a summersaalt as this, we claim that other
individuals and the people at large have a
perfect right to think and act as they deem
best, without Being dictated to by This or
any other such committee

Yellow Fever.

The latter part Of last week Yellow Fe-
yer broke cut in our neighboring town o.
Washington. About a month ago sixty
or eighty colored persons returned to this
parish from Hayti. They were quar-
antined below New Orleans, but were
not. we are told, required to open and sun
their baggage. Many of these people
stopped at Washington and Barry's Land
ing, and the remainder dispersed through
the parish. These people do not have the
fever. but those located with them have it,
contracted from their baggage. 1t is con-
sidered epidemic in Washington. All
unacclimated persons, who possibly could,
have left the place.
Ehis week the fever has appeared at
Barry's Landing, from the same cause
and we hear Of cases on different planta-
tons in the parish, where some of the re-
tuned emigrants reside.
Opelousas is quarantined against all in
fected districts. The fever has been kept
out before by quarantine, and it may be
done now. We think, however those who
intend leaving town in case it comes, should
do so at once as, by delaying, they not
only expose themselves, but add &c the
danger Of those who can not get away.

The People Y mot Round to
Vote for Nominees of Packed
Conventions. nor for Nominees
who are Hsae0mpeteBt, &c.

1%EE R&E~ "ssE5 @H +@sE ----~-"
We have often heard it said that the
eoflvention.racently held here was packed.
We are inforTnedth some ofthe delegates
say SO. Sometime before notice had been
given that it would be held, ward cenven-
tons were held, We arr told. in different
parts ofthe parish, and'ifr many instances
by persons who did,not reside in the ward.
One thing Is certain, the convention did
not give satisfacHon-we do not mean to
us; We are perfectly satisfied. We have
no objection to a lot of friends assembling
and, nominating, a ticket, but if the people
think there are other more competent ana
suitable candidates in the fell they Ger.
tainly are not deprived Of the right 70 VOTE
for them. The New Orleans nom"crat Of
the ed ulr., a PAPER published under the
auspices Of the Democratic State Central
Committee hae All article headed Good
Men for Office" signed odd Line Demo-
GRAFT" which says,
"Judginz from the tone Of the press,
the demand for good men and true as can
didates appears to be general. The people
deman' this. because Incompetent and un
| acceptable 1nrn have been thrust npQn
| them through packed cOnvcntions-packea
in the interest Of rings and cl'quos, relying
for success upon, the well known attach
meat Of the people to the Democratic par
ty. Now, it should be borne in mind that
| the people have become sick and tired of
voting for men OF this characterized who
make a profession Of politics. They have
it in their power to remedy this evil but
seem to be unwilling to spend the time
necessary to do So. The election of dele
gates has generally been Sc managed as to
prevent a majority OF the voters from TAX
ing any part therein This should be
guarded against by the Parish Executive
Committee. Ample time and opportunity
should be afforded every voter to cast his
ballot for delegates; for it is upon these
depend, in a great measure, the success of
the party.
Another thing should be changed and
that is the regulation requiring every one
| offering to vote, to have his name enrolled
in some club. It should be sufficient to
know that the one offering to vote is a
legal voter, and a resident of the ward or
parish in which he offers to vote. / have
seen elections for delegates carried by re-
fusing to allow men to vote because their
names were not on a club roll. And |
have seen candidates thus nominated de-
feated. Now let those upon whom devolves
the selection of candidates, bear in mind
that upon them depends the success or de-
feat of the Democracy this fall. The peo-
pie will not vote for men simply because
they are nominated tn the name of Democ-
racy. They demand that the men nomina-
ted be capable, honest and faithful. If the
men nominated come not up to this STAN
dard, the people will bolt the nominations"
