AN IMPORTANT STEP.

The United States Circuit Court, yester-
day, on motion of the district attorney,
issued a writ Of certiorari directing the
Eighth District Court Of this parish to
transfer all papers and records relating to
the political contest now going on between
the returning boards and the Governor to
the former-the federal-coUrt.
The effect Of this order We imagine will
be to quash the injunction issued by Judge
Gilmore last Saturday against the Lynch
board, and serve as a notice to that off,
cial that, for the present at least, COM
plete jurisdiction over this matter has
been assumed by power entirely above
and beyond him. It is possible that the
action taken against the regular board
may compIcate the question of contempt
Of the restraining order issued by Judge
Durell, and add materially to the discom-
forts of whoever may be found in default.

GRATUITOUS ADVICE,


Notwithstanding the repeated blunders
it has made, and the impracticable char
acter OF the counsel it has given, the Pic
ayune still continues its gratuitous advice.
It now assumes to dictate to the Liberal
convention what kind of nominations it
should make and the attitude it must as
sumo to other parties. It quite forgets
that it is untitled from want of political
intelligence, as well as its grossly partisan
peculiariHes, for this sort Of thing.
The candidates on the united State
ticket have nothing in common with Lib
eral principles, They ignore the ground
of compromise and concession which orig
mated the Liberal movement. It's pre-
tended advocacy of reform is nothing more
than the Radicals assume to favor They
say as well as the Democrats that correc-
ton of political abuses is indispensable.
But so far as the Democrats and Radicals
can see, these abuses consist exclusively of
opposition to their political doctrines. To
their eyes correction is the result of
party success. The Liberals go deeper
in the political diagnosis, and
perceive grave diseases in the administra-
ton of the government. For instance,
they dislike the force bill introduced
by Senator Kellogg in the Senate au-
thorizing federal interference with local
elections. The Picap0le, the organ of
McEnery, yonas & Co., approves and in
dorses it. Being their organ, it is reason
able to suppose they approve and ndorse
it too. In that case a radical antagoniSm
springs up at once between the convention
and the Democratic and Reform can
didates. It would be absurd to suppose
the Liberal party could indorse men whose
political opinions are so much at variance
with them on one Of the gravest issues Of
the canvass,
Upon what possible hypothesis, then,
can the Picoyaue advise. the Endorsement
by the Liberal convention of the Nc
Emery, Jonas & Co. ticket? On the con-
trary, assuming that Governor War
moths views are in harmony with the
principles of the convention, why should
he not be their candidate? The public is
justified in taking the Pjcayme'S false and
'disproved charges against him as 50 many
recommendations in his favor. If he has
not committed the errors that journal as
cribes to him, and fails to substantiate,
it is fair to infer that his administration
has been honest, capable and worthy, 1t
is in this light We view it, and so, we
think, will the convention, despite the
Pica5no,e's grotuitous advice to the con-
trary.

THE ROAD TO Rim.

On the third day Of June, only about
sixty-fve days ago, the German Ga7ette
used the following language, which was
accepted as very sensible at the time;
On Monday the Democratic and Reform
conventions meet On these conventions
will rest the responsibility Of our success or
defeat. The action Of the PiuchbaCk con
vention in adjOurning to Baton Rouge on
the same day the CustOmhOuse convention
meets there shows clearly that it is intended
to join the two conventions, and nominate a
straight Republican ticket, The
question is, shall we rest quietly, and let
the two wings of the Republican party get
together, or shall we prevent the junction
by inducing the Democratic and Reform
conventions to coalesce with the leaders Of
the Liberal Republican movement, and
make a ticket on which all persons opposed
to radicalism, Capitalization and Grant may
he combined? This should be done. 8
The time has come when we feel 1t our duty
to speak out plainly. The desired coalition
can not be secured without the aid Of Gov
crnOr WarmOth and his friends.
Governor WaTmoths friends viii not and
can not go with Us il we ignore him in the
formation Of the State ticket, We have
seen enough at the Piuchback convention
to convince us that W8rmUth has Yet a
strong party behind him. His strength is
to be found IN the country parishes, and as
IN 0ily 10 reform he cuH siHplg not be SDuTC9.
No other plan for carrying this State, Or
even this parish, in the interest Of reform is
possible, as every man Of common sense
must admit.
This is what the Gn5gtts said on the
third day Of June. 1t VIII be remembered
that there was "a crisis on hand at that
time the danger being that the Repub-
lican convention would coalesce with the
Grant convention at Baton Rouge. TWAS
necessary to hold out inducements 70 the
Republicans in order to prevent them
from making the coalition, and this in
ducement was fixed up in the above shape,
that if they would not join Grant they
might hope to form an important partner

overwhelming desire to beat Grant.

Fifteen Democrats and fifteen Reformers
met the fifteen Liberals IN committee yes
terjay. This was taking an unfair advan-
tage, as the Reformer5 represent nothing
nor anybody, having been swallowed up
entirely by the Last DitcherS SO far as
their party organization is concerned. It
is true the Reformers keep up committee,
but as they refuse to even hoist the names
of Greeley and Brown at their headquar-
ters, we do not see what right they have
to dictate terms to a Greeley and Brown
convention. Their nominee for Attorney
General goes so far as to declare himself
independent in national politics, and
many Of the Reform leaders manifest a
decided leaning to Grantism Under these
circumstances, common decency should
prompt them to abstain from thus forcing
themselves into the consultations of the
Greeley leaders. They can have but one
purpose possibly at these conferences, and
that is to maintain existing differences
and prevent a union of the anti Grant ele-
ments in this State. Failure to consolidate
these forces must be laid at their door.

IS he prefers to express it, ''from the rural
regions, delivered an address to the

Sunday night, which was set off with one
correct statement, at least to the effect
that the Liberal procession of Saturday
looked to him Ike a mighty big thing
His Democratic hearers did not applaud
this honest admission, and the colonel
had to apologize, by saying that perhaps
the Broom Rangers knew better tAan he
did about such things. Stick to the rural
truth, colonel and do not go back on
your eyes. The Liberal procession was
a big thing and what is more to the
point, it represented a majority of the
people of New Orleans, as the election
will discover,
