New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1872-04-23

In an editorial notice of the Shakespeare
Club performance, to be given this eve
ming, we alluded Sunday to the fact that
gentlemen, unattended by ladies, we're
expected to Present themselves at the Bur-
gundy street entrance of the Varieties We
are informed that this is rendered neces-
sary in order to secure seats for lady
guests in the lower part of the house and
dress circle. The upper tier is COM
modious, well furnished, commands an
excellent view of the stage, and will doubt
less be sufficiently well filed by the
guests Of the club.
A rumor has been circulated that the
members of the Shakespeare would prob
ably invite their lady friends to inspect
their new club house, at the corner Of
Dryades and Canal streets, after the per-
Torrance. We have heard doubts ex-
pressed as to whether the alterations and
furnishing now in progress will be COM
pleted in time to permit the execution of
this hospitable intent this evening.

NOT THE CLEAN THING,

It was late on Saturday afternoon when
the vote of the Democratic convention
was taken on Mr.. Fuqua's resolution de-
claring it inexpedient to nominate State
ticket at that time. Nearly three hun
dred delegates recorded their votes on the
question then before the convention,
very large majority casting their votes for
a postponement Of nominations until after
the Cincinnati convention had been held,
and it was known what would be the
course of the National Democratic party.
After this matter had been determined, it
was quite evident that very large number
Of the delegates were in favor Of adjourn
New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1872-04-23

ton. The policy Of the Democratic party,
the Liberal Republicans and the Reform
ers are the same. They all want pure
administration of the government
In this view of the political situation
the Democratic convention adjourned
without making nominations. A large
majority Of the Reform party entertain
similar views. The Liberal Republicans
having taken the, initiative in opposition,
await confidently the action of the Cincin-
natl convention. On the basis of the plat
form of principles it adopts we can estab-
ish unity of political action and senti-
ment.
Such a result the condition Of politics
in this State has made necessity Par
tisan prejudice should not interfere to
defeat it. On the contrary, every possible
auxiliary should be employed to carry
out policy of such essential necessity to
the public GOOD.

TIE ILLINOIS CENTRAL RAILWAY.


1t is proposed by this wealthy and en-
terprising company to build railroad
from New Orleans, connecting with their
original line at Cairo. The enterprise is
certainly a grand one, and if undertaken
by the present projectors will assuredly be
carried to successful issue. It will be
for New Orleans of incalculable advan-
tage; and help to stimulate the commercial
activity that is now tagging for want of
zeal and energy. What is essentially re-
quired by our people is railroad communi-
cation with the West We have nothing
to say against present connections. They
are of great benefit assuredly, but their
carrying capacity can not meet the wants
ola growing trade or the enterprise Of a
commercial people. The proposed extern
sion of the Illinois Central railway will
supply this want in a measurable degree.
Indeed, in the direction of the West
it will meet the requirements Of
trade for years to kone. Be-
sides, it will, in all probability,
cause the projection Of other lines in diff
ferent directions, through Arkansas and
Texas, and along the Southern seaboard
Then indeed may We look forward to
prosperous future. With the wealth of
the South and West seeking a market
through our gates, New Orleens will be-
come, what of right she should be, the
commercial metropolis of the country.
A short time since Mr.. D. II. Clark, the
chief engineer of the Illinois Central road,
was dispatched by the company to survey
and report on the practicability of the
proposed route. His observations have
been such that the plan is not only deemed
feasible but Of the very greatest CONNER
cial importance. His favorable report will
have material influence in determining
the company to perseyere in the enter
prise. Heretofore our railways have been
projected and carried through under the
most unfavorable circumstances But now
the prospect opens with the most encour-
aging advantages. Our people should
give it their hearty Endorsement, and con-
tribute all in their power to carry the en-
terprise to successful issue.

POLITICAL COALITION,

1t is difficult to perceive the reason why
coalition of the parties opposed to the
continuance of the present national admin.
istration should meet with disfavor from
any source. They all have the same OBJ
ject in view-the release of the South from
federal interference in purely local inter
ests. What is most needed here, is the
right of the States to regulate their domes-
tic affairs in their own way. 1t is right
which Of late years it has been impossible
to exercise. Nor can it ever be so long as
we have to contend with the oppressive
and injurious construction of the provi-
sions of the enforcement act as applied last
winter, and the contemplated appointment
of federal inspectors of elections.
Among the reasons advanced in opposi-
ton to political coalition is the expressed
dislike to act in concert with particular
men. This appears gratuitous. Individu-
ais can not control the principles that reg
ulate the position of parties. They are
but atoms of the party to which they be-
long. Overriding and controlling them is
recognized and well understood policy,
which,. lift meets generally the views of the
public, should establish harmony OF
thought and action among them.
Precisely in this condition are the three
great political organizations in the South
opposed to the probable nominee Of the
Philadelphia convention. If they do not
act in gerfect accord it is not from any di-
versity of political sentiment, but from in
dividual hostility growing out Of personal
ambition. Thus divided they are likely
to accomplish nothing, but united in the
praiseworthy object of redeeming the State
from federal interference in its local affairs,
they would be irresistible. All Of the par
ties are also identical on the question >of
reform in political abuses. The purposes
of the Cincinnati convention meet with
general sympathy. On the platform of
principles it is likely to put forth
men Of all shades of political opinion can
unite. But here in Louisiana, throwing
questions of expediency aside, what prac-
teal good can be accomplished by warfare
among those whose political opinions are
IN harmony? A coalition for the public
dement, is not a surrender Of principle;
neither can it be said to have been made
in the interest Of single individual.
But conceding that such is the case, for
the purpose Of argument, does it do any
harm? The ill-natured remarks of indi-
viduals can not destroy the principle in
volved. Necessity knows no law; nor
does principle regard question of expe-
liency. Our local interests are too great
% be put aside on so slight a considera-
New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1872-04-23


1t will shortly appear, if we are not
greatly mistaken, that the Bee is at fault
in its prediction Of Reform and Demo-
cratic coalition, exclusive Of the Liberal
Republicans. A union Of all the elements
opposed to the administration is essential,
and SO the Reformers view it. They are
in the main patriotic and sensible, and
their desire for reformation in the gov
eminent has not it's origin in mere indi-
vidual hostility. 1t requires outside
strength to insure success. Besides an
exclusive coalition between these two Or
CARNATIONS would be looked upon by q
majority Of the colored people as another
name for partisan plan to war upon their
political rights. 1t is an error to suppose
that the colored people are averse to the
Liberal Republican movement. On the
contrary, they are friendly to it. The in
fuence of General Grant is as a feathers
weight with them in comparison to the
sound political philosophy of Mr. Sumner.
The action taken here few days since
by the National Colored Convention is
proof of that.
Besides the advice Of our fierce Demo-
cratic paladins at the National Theatre
convention was not found very effective
in moulding Democratic policy. Their
anxiety to be ofice-holders is too plain.
Everybody sees their motives in their &C.
tons. Their plans were thin-their argu
ments sophistry; the light shone through
them. We therefore warn the Reformers
not to be too hasty in picking up what
