Mr.. -, of West Feliciana-I come
here with credentials from West Feliciana
and was ruled out. Mr.. Powell, who was
candidate for district Judge, was sent to
represent the parish. lie wanted his name
struck offs as it might hurt him with the
negro vote. Several of the delegates ad-
mitted were compromised on the WarmOth
question, and had been put in while he was
ruled out
Ex-Governor Wickliffe-We, of Feliciana,
came here to represent the Democratic
party of the parish, asking no favOrs and
no candidates to present, but with the only
intention to redeem our State from the cor
rupt rule under which we labor. In behalf
of Mr.. Powell, who has been assailed, the
best reply is to read the resolutions passed
by the party under which they came here.
Numerous amendments we're made, and
suggestions as to proxies and changes
adopted with the report.
Mr.. McCranie-I oppose the adoption of
the report if the parish of Richland, and
other parishes, are entitled to but one vote.
1t is entitled to more, where it should have
as many as the parish represent. L move
to reconsider the vote by which the report
was adopted, with view of the new par
ishes getting proper representation.
K. NJ. T. HuDter-This is an important
question: and one which ought to be deter
mined The parish of TensasI by the re-
port, is entitled to one vote, where there are
5000 Democratic voters.
Mr.. McCaleb-We have simply followed
in the footsteps of the executive committee,
and have constructed the report upon the
the basis of the election of 1868, for we do
not recognize that there has been fair
election SINCE
Mr.. Herry-I represent the parish of
Iberia, one of the new parishes, and / am
willing to accept the representation afforded
by the committee. I am unwilling the con-
ventiOn should be divided on any such
question.
The motion to reconsider the adoption Of
the report was lOst-73 yeas, l05 nays.
Mr.. A. S. HerrOn-I move that the COM
mittee on credentials be instructed to in
quire whether the new parishes are, or not,
entitled to greater representation.
Mr.. --, of Ouachita-I move, as q sub
stitute, that we allow the committee to as
certain the full number of votes cast in all
the parishes and report.
Mr.. Bryan move to lay both the motion
and substitute on the table.
Withdrawn.
Mr.. H. D. Ogden, of the executive COM
mittee-YOu must, if you would ascertain
the delegation of the new parishes, first
ascertain the vote of the mother parish,
and deduct from that the vote of the new
parish.
The motion to table was renewed, and
loud cries of question rose, Mr.. -, of
Ouachita, not being allowed by the temper
of the house to state his question of privi-
lege. The motion to table prevailed
Mr.. Gibson-In order to stop any other
trivial discussion, it is my suggestion we go
into some regular business. There are
many delegates here in double capacity
both to the Reform and the Democratic
conventions. MY idea Is to appoint com
mittee to confer with the RefOrmers ON this
question. 1t should be a general commit
tee from all parts of the State, inasmuch
as the gentlemen who compose that con-
vention are of us and with US.
Mr.. Napier Bartlette, of Claiborne, of
fered resolution that committee of nine
