EDITOR REPUBLICAN:
I find in the Times of yesterday com
munication over the signature of Liberal
Democrat" with the sentiments of which
entirely agree. The ticket suggested is one,
too, that very strongly commends itself to
the consideration of the August convention,
from its liberality and catholic sprint. The
following is the ticket proposed
For GOvernor-T. c. Anderson, of st.
Landry.
For Lieutenant Governor-A. s. Heron,
of East Baton Rouge.
For Secretary of State-L. T. ,Delassize,
of Orleans.
For Attorney General-Louis Bush, of
LatOuTche.
For AuditOr-James Graham, of Orleans.
For Superintendent of Public Educa alton
w. B. Macdonald, of BOssier.
For United States Senate (by the Legis-
lature)-G0vernor II. G. Warmoth, of Or
leans.
Governor 2. B. S. Pinchback, of Orleans.
Fosdick, of Orleans.
For Congress, Second District-GeOrge
A. Sheridan, of Orleans.
For Congress, Third District-Miohael
Ryan, of Rapides.
For Congress Fourth District-General
w. L. McMillen, of Carroll.
For Congress, Fifth Distriet-W. +.
BlaCkman, of Claiborne.
With this ticket Grant and Kellogg can
I. l,E, I, a How oil nj A1
as will give us ''retrenchment, economy
and reform"
In the congressional nominations, how
ever, there is an error. General McMillen
and Senator Blackman are from the fifth
district, and Judge Ryan is from the fourth.
For the third district, then, would suggest
the name Mr. P. G. Deslonde, an intelli-
gent and influential colored citizen of lber-
vile parish; Judge Ryan for the fourth,
and Senator Blackman for the fifth dis
trict This division would give the Liberal
Democrats three Congressman, and the
Liberal Republicans three, two of them
being cOlOred-Pinchback and DeslOnde.
With Governor Warmoth for the United
States Senate, James Graham for Auditor,
L. 7. Delassize for Secretary of State, and
A. Dubuclet for State Treasurer, the Lib
eraI Republicans would have on the State
ticket four representatives, two of whom
are colored, and the Liberal Democrats
would have a like number. Should the
convention deem it inexpedient to nOmi-
nate Governor Warmoth, who is my first
choice, to head the State ticket then the
0ounos hDvp c1uUaStn6 I thinL yuO1I1 m q -a
the strongest ticket that can be put for
ward.
The personal popularity of General 7. G.
Anderson with Republicans, white and col
Ored is greater than that of any other man
in the State outside of the Republican
party His moderation, his fairness and
iDpartiality, his sterling honesty and iDteg
amiability of character have secured for
him hosts of friends every where, and in all
parties. His political opponents often vote
for him, from their personal friendship and
admiration for the man. His uninterrupted
connection with the legislative department
of the State government for the past twenty
years has made him perfectly familiar with
tie financial and political condition of Lou
iSiara and doubt if there be man in the
State mora thoroughly cOnversant with the
wants and wishes Of the people, or better
posted in all matters relating to the affairs
Of State. In addition to the large planting
interests OF General Anderson and his indie
pendent fortune, he unites with these quail
tiles an excellent Judgment, enlarged views,
with an intelligence and political expert
ence rarely found combined. Take him all
in all. | regard him as by far the most
available candidate that could be nomi-
mated.
The balance of the ticket embraces the
names Of gentlemen whose character and
special mention at this time. With this
ticket in the field, Mr.. Kellogg and his Gus
tOmhouse allies will find themselves dis
tanced in the political race i'll November
next and all of our people will live under
government in peace and harmony.
