tax collector of Ouachita parish, from max
ing and filing any delinquent list" Of the
taxes assessed in favor of the State Of Lou
isiana, for the year 1872, before the I'd Mon
day of December, 1873, and from making
and filing, at any time, any delinquent
list" of taxes assessed for the year 1872 in
favor of the parish of Ouachita, as there is
no law or ordinances requiring it, or impos-
ing penalties OF punishment on delinquents
to the parish. Judge Baker granted the
order for injunction in a bond of 5000. All
the papers in connection Herewith have
been issued, and the suit put under full
Roadway. All the tax statutes of the
General Assembly of 1871, 1872 and 1873
are attacked as unconstitutional, both state
and National. AS ex-Dstrct Attorney the
plaintiff holds u large amount of state war

they would between individuals, or other

GOV. McENERY'S STAND.

We reproduce with great pleasure the
following synopsis of Il recent speech
delivered by Gov. McEnery in New
Orleans. The reference to Judas Isca-
riots by the Governor receives Our
most hearty endorsement:
Gov. Hyams, in an appropriate adj
dress presented Gov. McEnery as the
first speaker, who, advancing said:
FelIo,y- Cftizens-It has been some
time since it has been my pleasure to
appear before you, and l come before
you tonight as undismayed, and as de-
termined to prosecute and vindicate
the cause Of the people of Louisiana as
I did upon the first outset of the party,
when in tho ides Of November last,
when YOU elected your November
ticket: and if we are men, and not
slaves, we must uphold our principles,
or else we deserve the fate to which we
will be consigned.
am asked, my fellowcitizenS, why
I have not abused the people of this
loved State, and return to my country
home and resume my position which 1
have followed since my boyhood: Aud
I say when these men propose 70 me
such insulting and useless questions, !
NOUS an interrogatory, and it is that
the people of Louitiana have placed
me in the position in which l find my
self, and would not or could not lie
unfaithful to them. And l will devote
all OF nv energies and abilities to the
upholding of the rights of the people
who have honored me with the high
position to which I am elevated.
Amid much enthusiasm and VOcifer-
GUS cheering, tho Governor made many
good points, saying that many adhe-
rents of the Democratic party had
turned their backs on their only friends,
like Judas Iscariot, VIII" betrayed his
master and Saviour.
The speaker then touched on the
point of the three great parties of the
States, the executive, the judicial and
the Legislative, making telling and APP
preciative hits at the unnatural and I'M
necessary interference of the Executive,
backed by others.
He then in graphic terms described
The Ouachita telegraph. [volume] (Monroe, La.) 1865-1889, 1873-11-21

how the Government of Kellogg had
been established by a midnight order
of Judge Durell. After further eloquent
points by the speaker, he continued:
Congress will be compelled to take
jurisdiction in this matter, and there
can be no other alternative than, after a
careful Investigation, a return to the
position which she before occupied.
ECheers.1
The speaker Their, with no light hand,
presented the position of DeKlyne and
his raiders; saying that they had out
ragged, oppressed and villified the peo-
pie of this State, and that it was time
now that these people who are riding
rough-shod over us should be checked
in their mad career. The success of
the true people of the State, and the
downfall of its oppressors, will be
sounded throughout the length and
breadth OF the land.
The Governor concluded his speech
amid the greatest tumult of applause.
We regret that we are unable to publish
his speech in full; but suffice it to say
that he handled the would-be and ig-
norant officials of the State in no gentle
manner

The McEnery Government.

From nearly every parish in this end OF
tho State reports como to us OF parish meot-
ings to evince resistance 10 tho Kelloge
government. We do not doubt that every
parish has engaged i'll the good work. The
simple truth is, no matter what may be
said, that the real people of this portion OF
tho State are, heart and soul, opposed to
Kellogg and his infamous usurpation. I'm
der the ban of Federal interference tho real
people may be lukowarm but, take them
they would rather be--as frcemen-and
they would speedily send Kellogg and his
whole crew to the Devil, rather than be de-
prived of their liberties. We know the
people and we know what they want.

WHAT IS BANK SUSPENSION,

The course in trade which was re-
Gently inaugurated at our great business
center, has very nearly paralyzed all
kinds of business in the country. We
love, and pride ourself upon our love
for, New Orleans-it would be a waste
of words to say why;-but even because
we honor it, we must condemn the
policy of it's nonied lords and kings.
Let us exemplify, to show the mex
disability of bank suspensions in New
Orleans: One OF the banks of that
great city-now aspiring chow foolish
ly. if such management lasts0 to be
the chief commercial city Of the Union
has just published to the world its
ability to meet nearly one and a quar-
ter of millions Of liabilities. Under
unpleasant rumors of financial I'M
soundness, this bank was forced to con-
fess that it commands thousands of
dollars in certified checks, bank checks,
exchange, gold, &C., and, besides, over
$4OO, 900 IN currency in it's own vaults !!
Aud yet this bank with the dozen other
banks of New Orleans, all probably as
solvent, and having currency in their
vaults, exchange and coin, and all able,
doubtless, to show, in proportion as
much, or more, of that medium which
moves cr6psand pays off debts, is forced
to suspend payments Of currency, even
to depositors, in greater sums than
twenty five dollars in one day, and to
leave the country, in the hour Of its
greatest need, to provide means for the
payment of labor, taxes, freight, &C.,
where and how it best can, SO that the
banks of New Orleans are not required
to meet these necessary OUTLAWS ''to
keep commerce moving" Ifever there
was insanity shown in managing the
commerce of great city, this naked
proposition is sufficient to illustrate it.
If one bank alone has over four hum
dred thousand dollars in curle ncy on
hand, and at least one-third as much
more in cash of other mediums, max
ing over one-half-million of dollars
ready in hand, why should the produc-
ing classes not be aided by the five,
crops and get the full value for their
wears hard labor? And why, at this
season of the year, ought not the cotton
of New Orleans to bring into that city
hundreds of thousand OF dollars more
money than all the banks and business
put together have need to pay out?
These are questions which are agit;-
ting thinking men in the interior.
This is tho day of the country's calan-
ity-the time when it needs help more
than over before. 1t looks for help,
but the reply is the mockinG statement
of one bank, that we have suspended
payments, but our condition Is sound
we have over Ealf-a-million Of dollars
boarded up and safe from your reach
What other banks might say, being I'M
suspected of financial unsoundness, it
would be impossible to tell.
