NEW ORLEANS REPUBLICAN, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER II. 1872

Picaanaae well understands do not mean
anything but an aspersion. He attempts
to accuse indirectly the Auditor of fraudu-
lently paying the We'll claim" and de-
string to pay the Wieklife-strauss forge
ries Regarding the former the Auditor
had no option. The claim was allowed by
the commissioners, and he had no alter
native. But when has he s:gnifed an
intention of paying the Wickliffe war
rants? 1t can not be inferred from the
fact that he did not include these warrants
in the published list of fraudulent claims,
because these warrants have never been
considered as constituting claim on the
State. They were pronounced forgerieS
from the beginning and have been SO
treated.
But the curious part of the matter con-
sists in the eagerness the Picaylc'e dis
plays in admitting to its columns any
thing which may prove detrimental to the
Republican candidates on the fusion tick
ct. It pursues the same course toward
General Sheridan and others. Is the Plea
ystue really working in the interest of the
Customhouse party SO far as the offices
these men are running for are concerned?
1t looks yero much like it.

to other matters in such way that
the Liberal Republicans still held to
the combination. The Democrats pro
tested and promised that they would give
way in regard to minor matters, profess
ing to be content with carrying off the
major positions. This was deliberate
and maturely perfected arrangement, and
under its terms the fusion ticket was ac-
cepted in good faith. Now the Demo
Gratis repudiate the contract which they
made with the Liberal Republicans. They
profess to have all the State nominations
that are. worth possessing, and they now
insist upon having the parish and munich
pal offices parceled out to themselves.
This ends the combination movement, as
a matter Of course. Men who were dis
trusted before, and who have justified
this distrust by positive act of bad faith,
can not claim nor expect the cooperation
of their victims. The fusion movement is
a wreck therefore. 1t was intended to be
a decoy duck from the beginning, but the
game has escaped Now all parties must
help themselves
New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1872-09-17
to escape what have received, the attacks

to escape what have received, the ATTACKS
of partisan journals.
Now, we are ready for Mr., Ogden to ex-
plain how it happens, if he is candidate
on ticket representing all the parties
in the State, that there were still ''parti-
san papers" ready to pitch into the distin-
guished pet of all the parties. To what
party do these papers belong? Or are
they representatives of parties out of the
State? If Mr.. Ogden is supported by all
the parties, he has no opposition, and
hence the papers complained of will find
it uphill business opposing such a popu-
lar gentleman But we suspect one of
these assertions is not quite true And
we know it is not the last one, for we have
seen the gentleman criticised in one or
two journals
We may be excused from noting pub
lie rumor at variance with the statements
of another paper, and we are glad to see
that MI Ogden, by implication, denies its
correctness; for we can only supply ideas
for one journal. But when Mr.. Ogden
fatty contradicts himself in almost the
same breath, we hasten to ask him which
averment is truth and which spread-eagle
bunc0mbe.

MORE ABOUT MR.. OGDENa

It seems that a little truth is harder to
withstand than mountains Of mere de-
nunciation. Our assault upon Mr. Ogden
was not vulgar nor defamatoryo neitheg
did it deal in mere wordy platitudes about
his erroneous applications of the grand
principles of government. Nothing of the
sort. We leave this generous and orna-
mental protestatism to the Times, while
we map out for our readers the plain de-
auctions of common sense. Mr.. Ogden
told the Democrats Of the twelfth ward
that for four years they had been denied
free speech, when he and they both know
that this was not So He told them they
had lived under a government more OPP
pressiye than any that ever existed IN a
civilized State, when he knew that this
was not 50. He told them. that all this
oppression originated at and was inflicted
upon them from Washington City when
he knew to the contrary, for we have his
own testimony to that effect in a speech
delivered ABOUT SIX weeks ago. wherein he
declared that all the woes that Louisiana
has suffered and staggered under resulted
from the State government And this was
the reason why he declined to have any
thing to do with the presidential election,
that the federal politics had nothing to do
with saving the State.
Now, because we array these strange
alterations Of Mr. Ogden together and
call attention to them in our plain, blunt
way, he sails into and calls us pet names.
This proves another position that We put
him into, that his mind is illogical and
inconsistent, for to have been consistent
and logical he should have attacked him
self for confusing himself, and not US for
merely criticising his confusion. Such is
politics. however.

AT VARIANCE WITH HIMSELF,

Mr. Ogden, the lively fusion candidate
for Attorney General has been at it again.
He made a speech before the Melpomene
Ditchers on Saturday night, in which he
declared his purpose to be merely to
counsel with them" But his counsel on
this occasion assumed very much the shape
Of the customary stump speech Of the
spread-eagle sort. Like all men, however,
who talk too much, his statements do not
quite match. For instance:
am now a candidate On the fusion ticket
OF the State Of Louisiana, representing all
the parties in the State. aud, as such, | pro
pose to support the entire. ticket honestly
and fairly before the people of the State.
But when | accepted that position as a
candidate, could not fairly have expected

MUNICIPAL AFFAIRS.

The public is beginning to manifest con-
siderable solicitude respecting the charac-
ter of our future municipal rulers. True,
many offer themselves as suitable persons
to conduct the city government, but as yet
public opinion does not appear to have in
Dictated particular individuals. Indeed,
there is a great likelihood that more than
two tickets will be put in the field. In the
first place, there is already dispute be-
tween the Liberals and Democrats about
the claims of each on the ticket. The
Democrats, as on the State ticket, claim
the lions share. This pretense their allies
are by no means willing to allow. From
present appearances, therefore, we do not
anticipate too much in concluding that
this vaunted coalition will prove too weak
to restrain the personal ambition of aspire
ants for Office.
A number of clubs organized on q Lib
eral basis, foreseeing this attempt of the
Democrats to usurp all the Offices have
resolved themselves into independent or
carnations. This, while Iessening their
basis of representation, leaves them the
privilege Of choosing between contending
parties. For the purposes Of he Liberals,
this is far the wisest course. A fusion con-
vention, according to the basis of repre-
sentation allowed by the Democrats would
be composed of ninety-seven Democrats,
forty-six Reformers and thirty-one Lib
erals. OF course the interests of the Re
formers and Democrats are identical, and
the vote of the convention would be one
hundred and forty-three to thirty-oneo
This brief statement sufficiently indicates
the paucity Of Liberal chances for places
on the ticket
The only wayS therefore, thae we can
perceive that the Liberals are likely to OBJ
tain due recognition is through the NEE
dunn of their Independent clubso AS the
political situation Is now developed, the
Liberals and Bseforners are mere adjuncts
of Democratic success merely the ''hewe
ers OF wood and drawers Of $vatey 60 the
party.
These eiews are 7n5tfgate8 aloe from
simple antagonism to the Democrats but
from partiaEty to good governments We
are stating factso Our wishes will be fully
subserved if We nave wise and capable
rulers. Indeed, such an event will amply
compensate the defeat of any party or
combination of individuals or personal as
pirations. Misrule, stupidity and igno-
rance have for many years characterized
our municipal administrations It is time
we had an era Of honesty and intelligence
and our only regret consists in the i'm
probable contingency of our getting it
Nevertheless, the REPUBLICANS support
can not be relied on for any ticket or set
of candidates destitute Of these qualifcao
tons
We repeat it Is time or municipal af.
fairs were controlled by capable and
honest men.
