erwise, that the name Democratic is the
synonym of defeat, had TO be concflisted in
the opinion Of the ticket-makers; so the
first choice of the Democratic convention
were oEerslaughed for two Of that class
which heaped eontumely upon your party.
OF course no democrat, as such, is bound
| By this unauthorized action OF a fragment
of the Democratic committee. The organ
of the combination even now refuses to
recognize the ticket as Democratic and
persists in styling it by other names.
In this place will fit very well eonver-
sation between the reporter Of the REPUB-
LIcAN and Democrat who is suppotter
Of the "United States ticket, because it
has the superfcially genuine stamp Of the
Democratic committee gentleman who
knows whereof he speaks. Here is all that
need be printed:
Reporter-In view of the decided Opposi-
ton in the Democratic and Reform con-
ventions, / can not understand how these
few members of the committees dare as
sumo the power to coalesce and form new
ticket, under new title, in fact try to or
ganize a new party.
Demoorat-Why, something had to be
done, or the whole party would have been
swallowed upin the Liberal movement, and
Warmoth would have been its recognized
chief. personally had no objection to
Warmoth, but many of our friends had
taken such strong grounds against him
that his success was regarded as their politi-
cal death warrant What show would he
have given them7
s, Reporter-I don't think the Governor
carries personal animosities into politics as
far as you think, though you must admit
he has just cause Of complaint against many
of your ambitious leaders for their reck-
less and untruthful accusations.
Democrat-But you can't make our peo-
pie believe him to be of so forgiving dis
position. Therefore, for self preservation,
as said, they had to get up new move
to capture the people. Randolph, Hill and
those, falling to make suitable connection
at Baton Rouge, were back in town and on
the market. Old man Lasere is the ahFewd-
est politician in the State, think, and
when the subject was broached he at once
declared that an organ was essential to any
movement; that the Ref0rmers had one,
the Picayune, and terms must be made for
its alliance. The boys kicked against sac
rifcing Jumel and Aleck Boarman, but the
Reformers had the call and were obdurate.
You see we had no money to start an organ,
and the Reformers had both organ and
money. regret it, for had we waited
the Democrats would have got at least as
many places on the State ticket from the
Liberals, and the Reformers would have
come in, too, for want of any other place
to go to.
Reporter-But what is your present idea!
Only a combination with the Liberals can
save you. The Liberals will not come to
you because you are without party. You
are neither Reformers nor Democrats, as
you advertise in the very christening of
your ticket. Are you prepared to take the
responsibility of electing such Legislature
as must accompany Kellogg into oficel
Demoorat-I can't say. am utterly dis
heartened. Warmoth could obtain any
guarantee that he would be sent to the
United States Senate, and allowed to pro
vide for a respectable number of his friends,
but the distrust Of him manifested by our
friends must make him distrust them.
Reporter-I am sure the Governor will
make no such bargain and sale. He will go
before a copyention Of the people, if at all,
on the same footing as any other. man, and
support the action Of the convention, what
ever it may be.
D6mocrat-Then we are all beaten, and
''nigger'' wins, for the combination ticket
viii stay in the field sure.
Newsboy, presenting his bundle to re-
spectacle citizen-Morning paper, sir
Respectable citizen-What paper, boy
Newsboy, spreading the various headings
before him-Take your pick, sir. :"
Citizen, indignant-Get out, you young
rascal. You should be ashamed to offer
such sheet to "a gentleman.
Exit newsboy, somewhat bewildered, and
looking as if he thought himself "stuek." ."
We stated that Colonel Carter had left
for Washington. This is mistake. He
will go tonight. To complete his arrange
ments he was compelled to delay AS
stated by the COlonel's friends, the purpose
of his visit to the President is to show the
necessity for the unifeation Of the Repub-
lican party; the distinctions in the way,
and how best they can be removed. No
one better knows than Colonel Carter the
secret history Of the attempt to overthrow
the Republican State government Of Leuis-
lana; no one can more lueidly explain the
culpability of the Presidents so-called
friends. We hope, so long as he has as
sumed the duty Of representing the true
state Of affairs, that lie will nothing ex-
tenuate, nor set down aught in malice"
A rumor, which we do not in any way
vouch for, was current last evening to the
effect that Mr.. Packard had been removed
from the. marshalship upon the several
representations Of Special Agent Kinsella,
and Nessrs. Thomas "A. Scott and John w
Forney. Kellogg must by this time be in
Washington. Is hispower gone :
