knowledge Of his prolonged usefulness
as republican, for the simple reason
that the people did not know him q. all
and it is only now becoming apparent to
them. in what manner his 'prolonged
usefulness makes him deserving Of The
honor" of representing De Soto Parish.
1t was impossible for hin to obtain
reelection in the third ward, and it was
only otter he found that his prolonged
usefulness as q republican" was not di-
gestible with his constituents, that he
departed @foT' parts unknown" to find
some spot, where, if the people themselves
were not aware of the fact, he could
ct least, find some kindred spirits, as
useful as himself and who would help
him, to continue his usefulness" to him
~!E
To the fourth and fifth reasons, we
shall not offer any objections, as they are
only "ghttering generalties" and stere-
otypel recommendations
The sixth (marked seventy is the
most ridiculous reason Of the whole, and
rs we take it 'sthe most unkindest cut of
all" for it is well known in political cir
cles that if Mr.. Carr had depended entire
1ly upon his merits, and let US explain,
when we say "his merits" we do not call
into question, the truthfulness of the first
and second reasons at all We speak OF
HIS course of conduct az Speaker, last
4 winter, and his so-claimed election to the
House Of Representatives from De Soto
Parish. We repeat that if Mr.. Carr de-
ponds upon these claims, for the position
SO readily accorded to him by MIR. Con-
way, he could not secure corporals
guard, but to the contrary, 'the ample
fortune" in possession ofMr. Carr was the
loud call, that took our ''modern Cincin-
hiatus" from the plow, and forced " him
back upon the people OF Louisiana. AT
one of her representatives in the Gen
eral Assembly of this State land had il
mot been for this sample fortune" MIR
Carr. if he had concluded to remain il
l De Soto Parish, would have been left t.
$ plow the land, until he WIS as old as wa
!, Gnc;nattus indeed. Secondly this sample
e fortune is being used in securing him tn,
deserved honor of q reelection a.
Speaker, and, if he"is Therefore not Ikel!
Ito be influenced by offers OF brides
what business has he to offtr brides t.
r others, in the shape of nancy, to vot'
for him as Speaker. If he is above &C
ccpting brides, he should be above offer
+ ing them. If he amt one. he Ii not tn
u other take it any way ytu please Il
select.
et AS to the Seventh, he ccrtainly showe'
e two things. He did have the ability t
fdecide, in his capacity as Speaker, as
n who should be the WarrxM Clerk OF tn
House, when q prominent hpublican an
a prominent Democrat wen the aspirant
y for that position, and helpromptly dc
" cided in favor of the Democratic aspiran
" and this we suppose is I'm full accor
U with Mr.. Conway's four reason, an
from all reports, if he vas re-electe
!. Speaker of the House, and the sam
= thing came up, he would do the ven
" same thing again.
!. In conclusion these 8 wen reasons
Mr.. Conway were not arrived at in iGn'
: rance, but they ombodiedhis real feeling
