President Grant is after the
South Carolina Ku-Klux with a
sharp stick. The condition of these
United States is happily becoming
such, that murderous bands will
not be permitted to burn, destroy,
and kill with IMMUNITY.
Apropos of this, we would rejoice
to see some prompt and decisive
steps taken to teach our own state
Ku-Klux some valuable lesson, or
else teach the people of commune
ties where such outrages are con-
nived at, that they incur grave res
possibility when they fail to use their
influence to keep such gangs, out of
their midst, as murdered Recorder
White in Grant parish recently.

NEW ORLEANS WATER SUPPLY.

The readers of the LoU1s1Ax,AN
are familiar with our oft repeated
complaints of the utter insufficient
cy of water supply at fires in this
city. The overwhelming calamity
which has just befallen Chicago has
reused up from lethargy many of
the most interested classes in this
community, and the condition of
our water works, the capacity of
reservoirs, the size and strength of
pipes, the number of fire wells, the
extent of the ramifcation of pipes
through New Orleans, are all now
on the tapis.
The Commercial Bulletin is en-
titled to much praise for the prompt
ness with which it has seized an
opportunity, and for the extensive
and valuable information its re-
porter collected with reference to
the whole subject.
The revelations made, exhibit a
condition of things alarming in
the extreme. The water Work."
itself is declared to be in most i'm
minent danger on account of being
surrounded by cotton pickeries and
other easily combustible building,
and in the event of fire originating
in that locality the possibility of
cutting of the supply of water would
soon be cut off by interference with
the pumps is at once apparent. An
examination into the various
branches only serves to show a
condition of things which may well
excite the intenseSt interest and
concern of every resident in New
Orleans, and We hope that acting
under the wholesome suggestions
Of prudence, and in the interest of
the welfare of the people, the city
authorities, from whom must eman-
ate suitable measures, will not fail
in the enactment of such reforma-
tory and improvement ordinances as
will place our water supply on a
footing worthy the demands of our
great and growing metropolis.

h4y~fHE NEW ORLEANS TINES says.

The REPupLxcXN announces the ap-
pOintment of Zuinglius Mckay az May
or of Carrollton, vice Gilbert j. Harri-
son resigned, and the question arises,
Why is this thus ? The recent election
of Gilbert J. Harrison was looked up
on as one of the great triumghs of that
progressive Radical civilization through
which ETHIOPIA claps her hands. Gil,
though dark as the ace of spades, was
singled out by his fellow citizens as
the fit and proper person to grace the
executive chair of of the rising city to
Car O lton, and to execute the honored
functions of chief magistrate, During
the progress of the election, when the
paper ballot was executing the free
mans, will, Gil glorified in his grow
greatness. The Swallowed livery of
the FURNISHED sun beamed upon his
face, rivalling in brilliancy the polish
of the bootblack's highest art.
Soon as the count was over and the
result was announced, the African
voters, greatly elevated in their alti-
tude, shouted for JOY. and greeted
their dark but comely Chief Magistrate
as if he were the honored fetish of
their tribe. A week passes, and 10,
without the intervention of Kuklux
rites, Gil glides as a shadow from his
acquired chair, and those who knew
him as its incumbent-elect, will know
him SO no more forever. Hence the
question above propOunded-why is
this thus?
In another column will be found
a communication from q citizen of
Carrollton which throws some light
on this subject and answers the
que ry "why is this thus" and it is
about just what we expected, some
colored man has been found who
was willing to act as these men de-
sired, and the result is they have
used him to secure their end. Is
not this subject we may well re-
feet upon? Are there not other man
in this community that may do the
same thing? How about the cry OF
colored man for Governor? Are
there not men busily at work Great
ing the impression that they want
colored man for Governor, merely
to carry out their scheme and Sc
cure the place for themselves? L,
appears SO to us. Now if this is
not the case, come out squarely
with your candidate and let tie
people have an opportunity to see
whether he be # the kinl elected
in Carro!lton, or a man that will
discharge the duties of the Office III
the interest Of the whole people.

EBrOne of the members of the
House of Representatives employed
in the Customhouse, approached a
country member whose seat is
contested, and told him if he did
not avow allegiance to the Carter
clique he would be expelled, and
his opponent installed. No better
proof of the desperation to which
the disruptionists are driven could
be afforded that this resort to
threats where they think a member
is in tight place. 1t also evidences
the utter lack of principle among
the members of the ring. They are
making a record for themselves
which the people viii not be soon
likely to forget or forgive.

on last Friday evening, referred to
the lack Of knowledge of the con-

~The Mississippi Weekly Leader
Of Oct. II says with reference to
the discussion at Holly Springs
between Gov. Alcorn and General

"The debate between the Gov
ernor and General Lowry yester-

three thousand people present, and
the greatest enthusiasm prevailed.
At night, General Lowry being
sick, Colonel Lamar was pitted
against the Governor, and got
handsomely beaten in the discus

bate has done much good.
