Mr., Camps Explanation.
EDITOR REPUBLICAN !:

EDITOR REPUBLICAN:
SIR-In your edition of June 80, 1872, ap-
pears an article headed ''An Unfriendly Po-
iceman," which is intended to place me in
false position. l ask you to give this a
place IN your columns in justification to
myself.
Notice was given through your paper of
June 26 that meeting would be held at
Philharmonic Hail. Fifth District, for the
purpose of organizing Greeley and Brown
club, signed by Jack Wharton, president,
and R. Covert, provisional secretary. Mr..
Wharton wrote a letter to Mr.. Covert to
postpone the meeting indefinitely, as he was
going to Baton Rouge, and would be gone
several days, and that he would see him
COVERT on his return. Mr.. Covert received
the letter on the twenty-fifth of June. On
the morning of the twenty-sixth Mr.. Covert
posted written notices around the streets,
stating that the meeting would be held at
the courthouse.
After l saw one of the notices asked
Judge Parsons if Mr.. Covert had said any
thing to him about using the courtroom to
hold meeting. He 1.-THE judge) told me
Covert was to hold his meeting in Judge
Sweets Office that Mr.. Covert asked him
about the courtroom, and he told Mr. Co.
vert to see Mr.. Delassize, Administrators of
Public Buildings, as he Judge Parsons)
did not think he had the authority, and told
Mr.. Covert to tell Mr.. Delassize he had no
objections for Mr.. Covert to use the room.
Mr.. Covert did not go to obtain permits
sion from Mr.. Delass1ze, but ordered the
porter to open and light up the courtroom
/ was at the police station and saw the
courtroom opened and light up. went up
into the courtroom and asked the porter
what he had the rooms open for. He told
me Mr. Covert had ordered him to open
and light up the room. I told him Mr..
Covert had no authority to open the court
room, and ordered the porter to close the
courtroom and Office, as they were open
and the records of the court all exposed.
I considered it my duty as a court officer.
The porter went Immediately and notified
Mr.. Covert, and Mr.. Covert had his office
opened, which he occupied with Judge G.
L. Sweet, and is used as the Fifth Justice
of the Peace court by Judge Sweet, and is
of the same size as the recorders court
room, and on the same floor of the building.
As far as having any malicious motives in
the affair, had none. There has not been
any club organized in the courtroom, but
sub-club formed by the persons connected
with the building under the name of the
WarmOth Radical Republican Sab Club
Also meeting called by Mr.. r. Covert,
when he bolted from the mother club, on
account of not getting the nomination from
the aforesaid club of the ward to the State
convention, which he used without permits
sion.
There was no meeting at the courthouse
on Thursday last that am aware of. If so,
l was not at the courthouse after 2. NJ,
and heard of no meeting.

/ administrative insults because she is a
Southern State, subjected to his imperial
pleasure, by the Ku-Klux law, a pretext
to imprison, to deride and gag her time
honored inhabitants. The ballot box in the
Middle, Western, as well as Southern States
will, in November, show their cOntemptuOus
praise of his already usurpation of power.
He has forwarded to this convention the
tool made use Of to crush the people, to
grind them down to the very verge of de-
spair, knowing that there was no other
way to force him upon the people than to
hoist him upon the shoulders of federal
Ofhce-hOlders, carry him to the edge of the
preeipice; and there, by unlawful use of
federal patronage, rescue him, wrap him
up in the gilded trappings manufactured
and furnished by those in authority at
Washington, and thrust upon the people of
Louisiana. By this device they have forced
upon the Republican party a ticket that
must and will meet with an ignominious
defeat. The "great horn was broken
Thus comes the universal dissatisfaction of
all honest Republicans, white and black,
connected with this convention.
The coming political darkness begins to
dawn, with rays of light encouraging to the
honest people of Louisiana. In the Liberal
Republican movement we see all men turn
for protection. They have confidence in
the honesty of Horace Greeley, his thirty
years experience with political and diplo-
matte issues establishing belief in his UNI
bounded integrity in the minds of the
American people. His past isms are looked
upon as things Of their day his likes and
dislikes have been hypothecated by the
American people, and passed to the credit
of an honest declaration of sentiment, ire
spective Of party or party alliances, This
same fundamental hypothesis is applicable
to our present State executive. Governor
Warmoths enemies are not 10th to credit
him with honest declarations, Justice to all
men, regardless of color or past differences.
Governor WarmOth's thorough knowledge
of State matters, after undergoing the trying
political as well as financial reconstruction,
enables bin to steer the ship of State with
less conflicting elements than any other
man can do. Therefore, let the little past
be forgotten a D factions bury their poll
teal and persCa al animosities, select a
ticket with Fl. C.Warmoth at it's head, and
we will establish State government that
Louisiana will be proud of-hOnOred by the
products of the growing West. W.

We do not seek to prevent the erection of
