ton will be adopted and Mr.. WOrrall Sc
yerely censured by the Speaker. -
Mr.. Demas, of St. John the Baptist
would like to say few words IN reference
to this affair of DR.. WOrralPs. 1t Is now
the thirtieth day of the session, and we have
done nothing, and we are liable to do moth
ing while we have such men as Thomas u.
Worrall, the editor of what he calls AN
English critical journal, in this House. we
can never do ANYTHING. Now. Mr. Speaker,
when we look and see how this man was
elected, it makes us angry to think OF II.
He was elected by the colOred men IN MS
parish. and not five white men voted ICE
him. and he, in return tor thelr kinuneS; IN
sending him to the position he now occupies,
he, in this "English critical journal,
abuses them. He tells the colored people
we are not tit to represent them that we
are ignorant and incompetent. Now, tie
only piece of ignorance that know OF the
colored people doing was sending such a
man here to represent them. NOW, SIT, 1
further say that this man is traitor, lie
professes to be the friend of the cOl0re q
man. I deny it. He is not their friend.
When the Carter party first organized he
was with them, and then he denounced
Governor Warmoth, calling him everything
that was bad When Governor Warmoth
showed that he was the best man, he came
back to Governor WarmOth, and now that
the Carter crowd has come back here ne
wants now to go back with them. Nal Is
the kind of man he is. In this "Englis1
! critical journal he says that the colored
representatives are incompetent. l deny
| this, and say that they are competent more
SO than he He has simply outraged the
| peoples representatives, and wants to make
| them appear iSnOramuseS and not mt to De
representatives. He has insulted the col
ored people of this State by this article: He
tells them that they are not judges OF the
persons who they have sent to represent
them upon this floor He has insulted Gov
ernor Warmoth, one of the truest
and best Republicans n this State
the man that has established the
Republican party in this State-the man
who, with not even a hundred men. organ.
lied the Republican party Of the State OF
Louisiana. He, the man that was the in
stigator of all this revOlution-the mar that
affiliated himself with the party which de-
sired bloodshed. which desired to make
widows and orphans in this State-the man
that belongs to one party to-day and
another one tomorrow. Yet this man claims
to be the friend of the Republican party
say it is falsehOOd. He is not its friend.
He only seeks to make money, and he does
| not care who he makes it out OF. he says
we are not competent. We are honest, and
if we have not the education that he pos.
sesses, we are true to our constituents and
do not waver from our duty. What does
he know of the Republican party Of this
State. What did he do to take the shackles
off the feet of the slaves! No, he was one
| of the men that kept us down in slavery
and wished to keep the bonds upon us
Now, Mr.. Speaker, hope that this resolu
ton - i'll be adopted, and that he will be
brought before the bar of this House.
After passing the appropriation bill, the
House adjourned until to morrow at twelve
| o'clock
