The Madison Journal says John
Ray is an honest man. The State
Register denies this ON the ground
that Mr.. Ray advocated and voted for
nearly every .swindling measure that
has been passed by the Legislature
within the last four years. The rea-
soning of the Register is good, in fact,
unanswerable. So when this latter
journal insists upon declaring s. b.
Packard to be model of honesty We
shall merely remind it that Mr.. Pack
ard, in the lobby, advocated the pas
sage of some of the same iniquitous
bills that Mr.. Ray raised his voice for
in the Senate. And while it is prob
able the latter gentleman only used
wordy arguments, is not impossible
that the former convinced hesitating
and doubling Legislators by the be-
stowal of slight "pecuniary compli-
ments."

AS it is quite beyond the ability of
the responsible conductor to frame
such passable specimen of English
composition, we are lead to believe
that the low squirt of yulgarity con-
tanned in the last issue of the Leader,
and directed against the editor of this
journal, was written by person
ashamed to assume public RESPONSE
bility for his own slime. Well, we
don't blame him; for most any man,
possessing the least sense of decency,
would be ashamed to acknowledge
the stuff.

Col. Geo. w. Carter was in Wash
ington Teusday interviewing Presi-
dent Grant and endeavoring to induce
him to use his official power to unite
the Republican party here by remov-
Packard and other of his meddling
subordinates from their positions.
The President is reported to have
said that he would not hesitate to do
so if it was shown to be necessary
to heal the divisions in Republican
ranks.
The Donaldsonville chief. [volume] (Donaldsonville, La.) 1871-current, 1872-07-27

BY force of example We have in
duced the Leader for some time past
TO maintain o tolcrable degree OF
courtesy towards us, but it seems the
restraint has proven too irksome to
the conductor of that journal, for he
has vacated the position of an editor
ial gentleman and found his congenial
leyel in fresh 0utblrst Of Journals

may he more in c0nsopanee With his
small llipd and low instincts, but it
has very little weight among people
who possess common refinement and

Mr.. Geo. H. Jackson, IA prominent
colored citizen of Baton Rouge, and
one of the finest orators of his race in
this State, has joined the Liberal
movement in support of Greeley and
Brown. Colored men are leaving the
Grant ship continually, and by the
time election day rolls around the
Liberal nominees will have host of
supporters among the lately enfran-
chised portion of the people.
The Donaldsonville chief. [volume] (Donaldsonville, La.) 1871-current, 1872-07-27

Whatever charges of inconsistency,
misrepresentation or insincerity our
contemporary of the Leader may bring
against us, this much is certain: the
course of the CHIEF has been such as
to gain it host of friends among the
most intelligent and influential mem
beers of the community, and this would
not be the case if it had been an in
consistent OF unreliable journal.
The Donaldsonville chief. [volume] (Donaldsonville, La.) 1871-current, 1872-07-27

We decline to accept the challenge
of the Leader to produce q quotation
from the CHIEF which speaks of Geo.
w. Carter as Zone of the most tai
ented men in Louisiana for the sim
pie reason that our language of week
before last does not necessarily mean
that such commentator of Mr.. Carter
was expressed editorially. But can
the Leader produce anything from our
columns which would seem to infer
that Mr.. Carter is not zone of the
most talented men in Louisiana ~
The Donaldsonville chief. [volume] (Donaldsonville, La.) 1871-current, 1872-07-27

The CHIEF in noticing the probable sus-
pension of the Iberville Soatth, winds up by
saying that the "South is an outspoken Lib
eral Republican journal" 1t is not true ;
the South is a thorough Democratic journal
And, further, the South is one of
those organs that cry. Kellogg, Grant or tho
devil, but save us from Warmoth.
In answer to the direct, insinuation
against our veracity contained in the
foregoing extract we refer our readers
to an article published in the third
column of the first page of the CHIEF
of July 9th, copied from the Iberville
South of the week previous, wherein
that journal says: Now We do not
propose to merit or deserve the cen
sure of these gentlemen of the press
by endorsing Gov. Warmoth or his
acts, but we do propose to join the
movement of the new Liberal State
party, and if Gov. Warmoth sees fit
to aid us in preventing Grant and his
office-holding minions from getting
control of the State, we shall thank
him for that assistance, and, if neces-
sary, honor him for his services
Thus it will be seen that our state
ment regarding the political status of
the South is true, while the assertions
of the Leader are false in every par
ticular. 1t matters little to us whether
our contemporaries frequent attacks
upon our veracity are the result of
sheer righteousness or inexcusable ig-
norance; it is enough to know that we
have met and disproved them in all
instances and in such decided manner
as would have brought forth retrac-
tons and apologies from a more hon.
est and fair minded opponent.
The Donaldsonville chief. [volume] (Donaldsonville, La.) 1871-current, 1872-07-27

We have received under the frank
Of Hon. J. H. Platt, M. c., a pamphlet
entitled "What Horace Greeley
Knows" the contents of which con-
sist of extracts from editorials, letters
and speeches of the Liberal candi-
date for President, some of them da-
ting as far back as 1871. This PAM
phlet has been compiled as a cam
paign document against Mr.. Greeley,
but among sensible and thinking men
it will do him no harm. Of course
some of the views expressed by him
at different periods of his life are
shown to be inconsistent with express
sions at other periods, and it would be
strange if this were not so, for in the
continual change which takes place in
the political situation what might be
very feasible and proper at one time
would appear impracticable and ii
diculous at another. "Only fools are
consistent is an old saying and q
true one, and those who read this
campaign document should remem-
Der that a like one, displaying fully
as many inconsistencies" can be
compiled from the sayings and doings
of every man in the country who has
been in public life so long and prom
inently as Horace Greeley. A perusal
of the numerous extracts contained in
the pamphlet in question will demon
strate that Mr.. Greeley has always
possessed the merit of declaring his
honest convictions fearlessly and ex-
plicitly, and this good quality has had
no small share in raising him to the
high and honorable position he holds
in the hearts of his countrymen.

The Louisiana State Register stands
ready to swear that s. B. Packard is
honest, yet We feel certain the Regis
lister will not say as much for the par
ties who associated with Packard to
lobby the Nicholson Pavement swim
die through the Legislature and then
raised a purse of $4,000 with which
to bribe the Governor to sign the bill.
The Donaldsonville chief. [volume] (Donaldsonville, La.) 1871-current, 1872-07-27

The approaching Liberal State
Convention could not do a wiser
thing than offer Mr., Pinchback the
nomination for Congress from the
State at large, and if that gentleman
would accept it, his candidatule
would perhaps do more to strengthen
the ticket than that of any other man
in the State. There should be a rep
resentative of the colored portion of
the people on the ticket, and who
is there more fitting than Lieutenant
Governor Pinchbaek?
The Donaldsonville chief. [volume] (Donaldsonville, La.) 1871-current, 1872-07-27
A SUGGESTION FOR THE LIBERAL
CONVENTION

The most important matter to be
considered by the approaching Liber-
al State Convention is the selection of
a ticket which shall be strongest with
all classes. To this end it is necessary
that the candidates should be taken,
as far as practicable, from among diff
ferent elements of the community as
well as different portions of the State.
Neither the Baton Rouge or the "uni-
ted State ticket" have a representa-
tive of the Germans upon them, and
the Liberal ticket will gain a deal of
strength by having q German as one
of its candidates.
Prominent among the aspirants be-
fore the Convention for the nominal
ton of Secretary of State will be Mr..
Louis S. Mayenno, whose claims will
probably be pressed by the most
prominent German Liberals of New
Orleans and the State at large, and
will certainly be worthy of serious
consideration.
Besides enjoying an enviable degree
of popularity among his fellow Ger
man citizens, Mr.. Mayenno is thor
oughly acquainted with the duties of
the position of Secretary of State,
having been employed in the Office as
chief clerk for the last three years.
He is a sober, industrious man and
a courteous, obliging gentleman. He
would fill the position of Secretary OF
State with honor and credit.

Of the newspapers of this State
which have been Democratic in their

Tt is fact that every time the
Leader has attempted to convict the
CHIEF of untruthfulness it has only
succeeded in burying itself deeper in
the mire of falsehood and the slough
of ignorance. The sheet is becoming
SO dirty and contemplate that its de-
nunciation is preferable to it's praise.

One of the most contemplate false
hoods lately uttered by the Leader is
the statement in the last issue of that

four Liberals in this parish" And yet
this disgrace to journalism would fain
have the public believe it reliable
newspaper!
