HOW TO TREAT ROWDIES,

If the people of Franklin parish will
take our advice, they will quietly count
noses and ascertain just how many dis
orderly reprobates there are in the parish
who need demonstrating into better man.
ners or out of the country. Having done
this, they will for the first time come to
the conclusion that there are enough
decent and law-abiding citizens in the
parish to do what the community needs
for its own publication. With this con-
clusion well settled, these peaceful people
will organize themselves into committee
and assure the officers of the parish that
the disorderly reprobates must either be
punished by the law, or the community
viii assume that duty itself. If this does
not start the officers, then let the COM
mittee act against one or two of the ring
leaders of the ku-klux, and our word for
it the smaller rascals will take the hint
without waiting to be kicked. If the
people of Franklin parish do not do some
thing of this sort, they will live to see
their own children demoralized and made
ashamed of themselves and their parents,
for the history of all time is full of ex-
amples to this effect

A GROSS IMPOSITION.

The Customhouse Estate Central Com
mittee, who have the hardihood to claim
to represent the Republican party of Louis
lana palmed off upon the public recently,
| as a formal recognition of themselves by
the National Committee as the only genuine
and bona tide State committee, a letter
from the notorious trickster, William E.
Chandler, who unfortunately is acting as
secretary thereof.
We have before stated that this letter
from Chandler, which is made the chief
distinction of the late illumination of
Messrs. Ray, Lowell and Burch, was not
authorized by the committee, and no more
constituted a recognition" than the vari-
Gus letters addressed to the regular COM
mittee, and our statement is confirmed by
a communication yesterday received from
a prominent Washington politician.
Through it we learn that ''entirely too
much stress is laid upon the letter of Will
liam E. Chandler, secretary of the National
Republican Committee, assuming to recog-
nize the Customhouse committee as the
regular Republican organization of Louis
lana" Further, that it is the simple ipse
dltit Of Mr.. Chandler, and, as we have
all along suspected, is mere trick. How
weak and contemplate must the Custom
house clique have felt when they consented
to sink their manhood and political integ-
rity by resorting to such mean dodge
The Washington gentleman referred to
adds that ''the regular committee should
not conclude by the Chandler letter that
any decision of its claims has been arrived
it by the National Executive Committee.
They were not likely to act upon such
supposition in face of the fact that the
opposing claimants have sold out to the
Democracy The regular committee is 2
selt-sustaining Republican institution, and
has neither wish nor need to misrepresent
themselves to the people, nor to claim
bogus distinctions of any quality or degree

assertions. But people may possibly READ
it without knowing that its paternity be-
longs to the Times. For such persons we
say that there is not one word OF truth III
it. The assessors have not even yet COM
meleed their work of assessment.
1t is not surprising, however, that the
Times feels discouraged at the prospect.
# these collection lbhould not be made,
the large interest which the proprietor Of
the Times has in stocks, monopolies and
draining enterprises may possibly suffer
detriment. This may be the chief reason
of the 7lQes' concern. Should such be
the case, it will reap the first fruits OF
policy of running with the fox and play
ing with the hounds. 1t is a bad plan to
invest largely in monopolies, and then de-
CIV them. But it must be admitted that
until very recently the Times has been
singnlarly observant Of its interests in
monopolies.
May be, however, it has sold out

COMPANION PICTURES,

We are told by one Of the city papers
that the people Of some parts of the coun-
try are DANGEROUSLY and earnestly protest
ing against paying taxes. The suggestion
that forced sales will be resisted in certain
localities is rather approvingly alluded to
as something quite the thing to do. It is
gravely asserted that "there will be no
buyers under seizures and sales of country
property for taxes" We are fully aware
that the money paid for taxes is generally
parted with by owners with great reluc-
lance. Men who spend their incomes
lavishly in order to be thought whole
souled, liberal, good fellows, look upon
the tax-collector as their natural enemy,
and beat him if they can. Such is human
nature, and such it is likely to remain.
The money paid for the support Of the ma
tional, State and municipal governments
is grudgingly given; that expended for
luxuries and artificial wants is put out
with a lavish hand
1t is not our purpose to read a homily
on this subject in the hope of eliminating
from human nature one of its most pal
pable inconsistencies. Such an effort
would be vain, and worse than useless.
But it becomes the duty Of the honest
journalist to point out the dangers that
threaten the people, and advise for the
public good. 1t is a rigid law of our
being that every wrong has its penalty,
from which there can be no escape. 1t
is the duty Of the citizen to contribute
portion of his substance for the public
good. This duty is law, and any in
fraction Of it necessarily falls upon the
head Of the offender. If a man refuse to
pay taxes. he is condemned to pay a
greater price than at first demanded, to
cover costs of collection. If his neigh
bors band together to shield him in his
unpatriotic intent, they incur the respon-
slplllty, which is accordingly shifted from
his shoulders to theirs. The result is that
the community where the laws are disre-
garded or set at defiance suffers from the
neglect OF the rest Of the world. People
will neither settle in nor visit lawless
community. Credit is withdrawn, and the
pecuniary loss entailed is tenfold more
than the original sum assessed We have
a case in point:
The old town of Covington, in St. Tam
many parish, is delightfully."- located near

TAXATION,

The Times deliberately asserts that the
taxes at present imposed on the property
fthe State exceed two per cent. 1t adds
to this the parish tax, and, to still further
magnify it's self-created bugbear, asserts
that the assessors who are paid per
centage on their valuation, are engaged in
assessing property above its real and mar
ketable value
If the authorship of this statement could
be known as widely as the statement itself
is circulated, it would scarcely deserve a
denial. The faculty of persistent misrep-
resentation is so habitual with the Times,
that very few will put any credit in its
New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1872-03-19
THE REPUBLICAN STATE CONVENTION.

At meeting yesterday of the Republi-
can State Central Executive Committee a
call was issued for convention of the
party representatives,, to meet on the sec
ond of May Thursday, at the Mechanics
| Institute, in New Orleans. This is one of
the most important political events that
ever occurred in Louisiana, and it is de-
sirable, therefore, that the best representa-
tive men in the parishes and in the city
should on this occasion meet for delibera-
ton and counsel. The committee very
wisely ignore the attempt to create di-
vision in our ranks by few disaffected
members, and relying on their strength
and honest purposes, propose to send
delegation to the convention called by the
National Committee, and to accept the re-
suits of tie action of that body, even
though they may have special and serious
grievances against individuals who NAV
prove its choice for high distinction. A
party is strong only when it can sink indi-
vidual for the general good.
But of far greater importance than any
other consideration is the nomination of a
State ticket. The convention viii mani
fest its wisdom by choosing, not only
sound, progressive Republicans, but men
who will answer the popular demand for
reform" in the way of retrenchment in
carrying on the government and in the re-
duction of taxation This sentiment,
which first found expression in the Gov
ernor's message more than a year ago, has
become the universal desire of the party,
and possessing the power, it is through
their chosen leaders that this popular de-
mand must find practical realization
We shall, of course. have much more to
say en- this subject; but for the present
must content ourselves with urging on our
contemporaries in the parishes an early
publication Of the call, accompanied by
earnest appeals to the people to put none
but the best men on duty on this OCCASION

The Times, We think, has been put on
the wrong scent. 1t declares that Admin
istrator Lewis has gone to Washington to
assist Messrs. Ingraham Burch and Lott
III procuring legislation that will affect the
approaching election. His friends were
led to believe that Mr., Lewis, as well as
the others named, had gone to secure the
defeat of Mr.. Parker as surveyor in the in
terest of one of their race If the Times is
correct, and these gentlemen really seek to
turn the management Of State elections
over to federal authority, We hope the fact
will be established Immediately. With
Senator Ingrahams speeches on the cleo
ton and registration bills clear in our
memory. however, We strongly suspect
this declaration to be-so far, at least, as
he IS concerned of the customary
Times blunders or canards 1t may be i'm
portant to the political future of these
gentlemen to set themselves right.

COMB UP AND CONFESS.

We have seen letter from Washington
which contains little revelation concern
ing Representative Sypher. After Casey,
Packard & Co. had got one Chandler to
recognize" their ring as the regular State
Committee, they brought their heavy
treasury and postotfice guns to bear upon
the member from the First District. The
result was that he endeavored to induce
the Secretary Of the congressional investi-
eating committee, which was recently here,
to indite similar letter to that Of Chand-
ler's to Marshal Packard but the said
secretary, having visited Louisiana and
learned the true situation of affairs,
peremptorily declined.
Is this true, Mr.. Sypher? If not let us
hear from you And remember what the
old play says:

Is the worst rebel to himself and tho now

The Bee is extremely anxious that the
Picay1me shall explain itself distinctly
upon the subject of national politics. And
while the Picayuae is airing its faith for
the better satisfaction of the Bee, would it
not be just as well for the double-barreled
organ to tell us what it knows in the same
direction? Some say the Bee is charged
to the muzzle with opposition to the po-
litical equality of the colored people, while
others say that both of its barrels are only
stuffed with blank paper. Will it set up
forty foot wall and discharge its ideas
against it, in order to satisfy the public
what it really does intend to use for am
mUnition in the next fight?

the health-giving waters of Abita springs
The surroundings are pleasant. Fruits
and flowers and all the products OF the
garden abound there; game is plenty in
the piney woods and the forests of the
Tchefuncta Fish from the lake, fowls
from the yard, fresh milk from the COWS
which find their own living, and, in short,
everything most desirable can be had on
the table at small cost. The place is
easy Of access from New Orleans. And
yet, with all these natural advantages, or
people post off to dusty Saratoga, breezy
Newport, or the sitting air of the White
Sulphur Springs, where days expenses
for an average family amount to more
than the taxes for year. The reason is
that Covington has a bad name. There
are no buyers there for property under
seizure for taxes. If any were to go there
they would not fare very well.
Consequently there are no buyers
there for anything. Pleasure seekers
go elsewhere Capitalists stay near
more law-abiding communities. The
beauties of the place and the cheapness
of the good fare are held out in vain, be-
cause the law does not furnish a guide for
the conduct Of all the inha bitants. The
peaceful German passes St Tammany by
and pursues his way to Missouri, Illinois,
or Iowa, where he is assured he will be
to pay his taxes, whatever they
be, in preference to stopping in locality
where he can successfully avoid this duty
And the weeds and briers grow on the
margin and overshadow Abita springs,

nent crowd and jostle each other at Sara

wisdom, but they can not find it in tho
journals that encourage them in defying
