New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1871-07-18
A QUESTION OF STATIIS.

The editor of the Louisiana State Regis
ter is evidently displeased with what he
says pretended to be a convention of
the Republican press of the State" Can
it be possible the editor means that it was
more Of Democratic press convention
than Republican If this is his meaning
it is easy to account for the twenty votes
out of the thirty-nine that refused to in
dorse Republican State administration.
If Speaker Carter and Lieutenant Cover
nor Dunn, who are the working majority on
the printing commission, have been uncon-
sciously letting out printing contracts to
Democratic editors, it is high time they
were made aware of the character of the
men they are warming into political ex-
istence. 1t is to be presumed that Gov
ernor Dunn would not knowingly be
party to such perfdy to the Republican
party. Speaker Carter, on the other
hand, most likely would not consider it

THE REPUBLICAN EXPLAINS.

If the State Register had been better
acquainted with the Hon. Henry Heiden-
hahn, it would not have objected so seri-
ously as it did to his appearance i'll the
recent Press Convention as the represent
tive of our capable friend Hassinger, of
the German Gazette. Mr.. Heidenhain was
one of the prominent members of the
Legislature of 1868. Subsequently he
filled with distinguished ability the Office
of Deputy Recorder of the Second District
in the city of New Orleans, and now he
occupies the responsible Office of Tax
Assessor of the Second District. He has
made creditable appearance in most of
the public meetings that our citizens
have called together; and at the great
convention which was assembled in st.
Louis two years ago to memorabilia Con-
gress in favor of removing the. national
capital to the Mississippi Valley, Mr..
Heidenhain was one of the most active
delegates that honored the city of New
Orleans by representing her interests on
that occasion. Subsequently he met Col
onel IT. G. Noel in debate concerning the
Christian Republicans, Oh Lafayette
Square, and was the victor of that Olym-
plan contest. He has been live man all
all the time, prompt to take position in
favor of progress, and courageous in de-
Tending his advanced ideas. For the
State Register to deny the representative
character of such a man is to reflect upon
its own intelligence.

ON CARONDELET STREET.

The fuctuation of gold in the New
York market, of which the street had ad-
vices by telegraph, and the transactions
based thereupon, formed the only chief
topic of conversation yesterday. Gold
opened in New York at 1124, soon fell to
112l, and rose to 1129 again; was then
quoted at 1125, and closed at 1929. These
vibrations were felt here, as Carondelet
is in acute sympathy with Wall street.
There were no heavy sales made, as ''men
who move capital are all out of town."
according to one who is well versed in
these operations. But the changes in
the barometer prompted speculation, and
ten thousand dollars were sold at 112I,
fifteen hundred dollars at 1922, and the
same amount at 113. Foreign exchange
is reported stiff, though we have heard
of but one negotiation, eighteen hundred
pounds sterling selling at 1874 1t seems
there is nothing whatever of importance

TAMMANY, THE RIOTS AND THE SOUTH

AS if by the spirit of inspiration all the
independent newspapers in the United
States have united, without concert, to de-
clare that the Tammany Hall Democracy
in New York, not only directly promoted
the attack on the Protestant procession
in that city, last Wednesday, but was the
author of the decentralization which led
the roughs and rowdies to suppose that
the same violence which has been used to
destroy political honesty in New York,
might also go so far as to put under its
feet religious liberty. From Maine to
Texas, in the Middle States and in the
West, and directly in the city where the
the disturbance occurred, impartial
critics have not failed to trace the out
rage to the corrupt and abominable prac-
tees and teachings of Tammany Hall.
The mayor of the city and the superin-
tendent of police, both sachems of the
tribe of Tammany, both tools of Tweed,
Sweeny, Connolly & Co., officially PAN
dered to the mob by forbidding the
Orangemen to parade, and only at the
very last hour, when Governor Hoffman
saw the tide of revolution arising against
the injustice of his own faction, was the
interdict against the procession with
drawn. The people of New York were
preparing to destroy the despotic
crew of rufians which had insolently
set itself up to suppress their lib
critics as it had plundered their pro-
perties and corrupted their politics; and
Governor Hoffman saw that if the mis-
take of Hall, Kelso, Tweed & Co. was not
corrected, he would be overwhelmed by the
indignant population whose religious and
civil rights were threatened with absolute
suppression by the authorities at the de-
mand of vile and dishonest mob. This
was what brought Governor Hoffman, at
the last moment, to the relief of the COM
munity. His assertion of ignorance con-
corning the trouble is so improbable that
its publication is an insult to his own in
telligence. For weeks the propable riot
had been discussed, and for days the most
alarming preparation Of the rioters had
been openly noticed in the public prints.
In fact, the event was the absorbing theme
of popular discussion, and for the Gov
ernor of the State to proclaim his ignorance
of the crisis was to placard himself as the
most ignorant man in New York.
This Tammany Hall party is the same
which has added seventy millions to the
debt of the city of New York in less than
two years. 1t is the same party which
assumes the right to dictate to
the people of these United who shall
be their next President. 1t is the same
party which practices fraud in politics,
and corruption in disbursing public
funds. 1t is the same party which was SO
nearly allied to the rebellion that some of
its members had to be locked up. 1t is
the same party which fed the South with
delusiye hopes before the war, which sup
ported the South with false promises
during the war; which infamed the South
to resist reconstruction after the war;
which now retreats from its own PROPOSE
tons, and which insolently says to the
South to-day that she had better keep
away from the Democratic convention

treacnery to help his old Democranc
friends, though he did gain his present
official position of Speaker by pretending
to be Republican.
His convictions in politics, as in relig-
ion, are not of the most binding nature.
He will not be governed by fixed rules.
In short, he is cratic and disposed to act
for himself. This may arise from the fact
that he has no one to act for; is in reality
not representative man; not a man that
has constituency. And without any
fixed residence or fixed notions ofgovern-
ment, there may be some excuse for his
being something of Wandering Jew in
politics But there is no excuse of
this kind to warrant like action in
Governor Dunn He is most decidedly
or should be-a representative man. He
has constituency to whom he is respon-
sible He can be held to account, and
therefore is not irresponsible.
Speaker Carter is not to blame for not
having a constituency. He most likely
would like to have one. But the absence
of constituency and fixed residence is
not enough to keep him out Of Office. He
followed the example of an illustrious pre-
decessor in the Speakers chair-Post-
master Lowell-and obtained credentials
to represent parish he has never perma-
nently resided in. At least he is accredited
with having initiated the conduct of Mr..
Lowell in obtaining political foothold in
this State. Mr.. Lowell represented the par
ish of Caddo without living there or being
recognized by the people as their represen-
tative. And what is there to prevent Mr..
Carter from representing the parish of
Cameron in the same way? It's safe to say
he has never lived there long enough to be-
come citizen, and yet he is Speaker of the
House of Representatives by virtue Of his
being member of the Legislature
from that parish, the people of which
are said to be decidedly Democratic.
We don't blame them for being of that
pcIouioIOu, OuI w D4olLAC IACLI IOL AOl
sending a citizen of the parish to repre-
sent them in the Legislature, one who
would not pretend to be a Republican
unless he really was such We know that
the parish is new one, being created but
a short time before the meeting Of the
last Legislature, and its population quite
sparse, but these are no reasons for their
continuing a party to a political fraud
when it is pointed out to them.
Lieutenant Governor Dunn, as before
remarked, is quite different individual.
He is emphatically a representative man,
and can not afford to go back on his party
nor his race; nor can he afford to be even
suspected of affiliating with men Of doubt
full Official character, much less to act
with them in giving out public patronage.
If the majority of the men who attended
the late press convention in this city are
only pretended Republicans because they
received printing contracts from Messrs.
Carter and Dunn, they had no business in
a Republican press convention, and the
very fact that they would attempt, as Re-
publicans, to censure Governor Warmoth
and his administration, is sufficient to es-
tablish them as political cheats.

| doing in stocks. Ten shares OF the New
Orleans Manufacturing and Building
Company, however, were sold below par,
and this paper is an unfrequent visitor to
the street. Shares of Sugarshed are bid
for at a slight advance over last weeks
| quotations, and likewise the shares OF the
Hibernia Bank, which may be owing to
the individual demands of the bulls.
Those holders of State warrants who
receive them as salary are loud in their
| dissatisfaction at the small rates at which
they are quoted. The principle of "hold
on if you can" has been followed by those
whose necessities did not require imme
date cash, and they who refused to sell
when they were among the seventies, part
In the conversation upon this matter, one
State official said he had been'in the en-
ploy of the State for sixteen months, and
hadn't received sixteen cents in national
currency, and, further, he would either
be rfghted or make fuss. Another had
spouted his warrants Ito use the diction
of one of our judges, and was yet in
doubt whether he would hold on or let go,
somewhat like the predicament of one
who held mad bull by the tail. A
third calculated his salary at only fifty
six cents on the dollar, and graduated his
expenses to his receipts in cash. These are
the three classes of State officers who ap-
pear on the flags, and are heard of about
every day, the warrants at the same time
remaining steady.
So few are the operations in real estate
that it has almost disappeared, as an ele-
ment of speculation, from the market.
In sales there is nothing doing, except in
the way of SUGGESTIONS or following a
judicial decree, and even then some one
is fonnd to stave off the contamination of
the bargain until more favorable time
