The Bossier banner. [volume] (Bellevue, Bossier Parish, La.) 1859-1952, 1872-03-30

r We warn planters against the
exhaustive and ineXcuSable policy
OF keeping their meathOuSes and
corncribs in st. Louis and Cincin-
matt. Hundreds OF our planters
would be independent OF the mer-
chant to-day, who are really his
tenants, if one or two years ago
4 they had commenced raising their
/ own hogs and beef cattle, and
! grown their own corn, oats and
hay, as nearly every one of them
might have done and found it IA
! pleasant as we'll as a profitable
employment. 1t is time for the
planter to quit begging, and he
come, as he should be, truly indie
pendent. -'N "a Cd

/ We would urge upon our citi-
zens of all shades of political diff
erence to cultivate a spirit of har-
mOnv, and to seek by.aiunited eff
fort of all the elements of OppOSi-
Etion to Gov. WarmOth and the
personal rule which he has sought
10 exercise, to rescue the State
and city from the. hand of him
/ and his associates. Why should
those who have but one end in
I. view-the redemption of the State
i-paralyZe each others efforts by
creating divisions and jealOuSies
and differences. 1t is a common
cause in which we are all engaged.
It is a common enemy whom We
desire to, overthrow. We cannot
do it by organizing separate and
/, distinct parties or combinations
l whose. mode of working tends to
defeat the object which all Of them
: seek to accomplish. We should
refrain especially from unfriendIy
, imputatiOnS upon each others mo-
5 tiveS and strive to unite and com
u bine our efforts 10 achieve the
5 victory for which we all profess 20
l. be fighting. n. .. Bee.
