THE LOUISIANA CASE.

pose than to give the subject formal
quietus-it will be with entirely new lights
TO guide its action. The web of falsehood

by Governor Warmoth and his allies of

threatened to prevail over the no: too
ably conducted cause of the really VIC
torious party. VIII be ruthlessly swept
away by the bosom Of truth, as is the web
Of another kind of cunning weaye7s By
the searching weapon Of the careful
housekeeper.
The committee appointed by the mass

ago. intend to have Richmond OF their
own in the field next winter, and to arm
their champion with such solid facts and

fence the enemies Of Republicansm may
be. their guard must surely be broken

We expected good results. from the
composition Of the committee. With such
men as Ingraham. Burch, Lewis, Brown.
and their colleagues fully aroused and
deeply interested, that the work would be
| thoroughly executed. WAS in our mind a
foregone conclusion. 1t is gratifying.
while no: surprising, therefore, to learn
that the committee have carefully digested
the testimony taken by the Senate conf
mittee last winter. and are ready with a
complete expose of its fallacies and re-
butta! Of its material allegations. New
evidence. showing conspiracy and fraud
against Republicans in all parts of the
State, has been obtained. and is so con-
elusive and direct that the Fusion leaders
must be overwhelmed with shame. if not
too hard seasoned in political trickery to
be susceptible to such an emotion. But
failing this slight penalty, they can not
escape realizing the truth of the old saw
regarding the handling of edged tools.
For their patriotic efforts the committee
will enjoy the thanks Of the Republican
party.

attended by representative men of our

affair. And in this connection we desire
to impress on our party friends who have
not been called upon for active duty in
this grand undertaking of saving the State,
that financial assistance is needed. The
committee give their time and work and

STATE FINANCIAL MATTERS.

While the Picdyune is endeavoring to
cajole Mr.. Clinton into position an.ago-
nistic to the law, that rather astute tinan-
cier is proceeding in the work of making
a little money go as far as possible. The
official announcement is now made that
in addition to the coupons on State bonds
due in July, those due in August will also
be paid on the first proximo.
In this connection it is proper 20 state
that certain parties have obtained an in
junction from the Superior Court. for
bidding the payment of the interest On
the free school bonds, which were sold
last year by the Auditor in pursuance of a
mandate OF the General Assembly. The
| pretense is that these bonds We're placed
III the treasury as trust fund, and should
! not have been taken out. AS the State is
the trustee. We apprehend the security
is good; and even if it were not, there
| are equities in the case which should not
be ignored. If any party or any in
stitution has direct claim to these
bonds they should be demanded in legal
form. But we can not see who has sufi-
Gent interest in their reputation to stand
in court and ask for judgm ent. These
bonds were issued by the Sta te more than
eighteen years ago, and by all the rules
of financial exchanges are the property Of
the holders. OF course. if they have
been stolen out Of the State trea sury. an
action may be brought for their recovery
But We do not comprehend the philosophy
Of decision that strikes them as blank
paper in the hands of holders who have
received them from the Auditor and
Treasurer with the sanction Of the Gov
ernor and in accordance with the orders
Of the Legislature.
Latterly there has been a decided ten
dency to establish preferred claims against
the treasury. by paying one class of
creditors and denying another. For a
reason more obvious than compE-
mentary to any one, judges warrants
Except those from a great distance
in the country have been eagerly
casLod, while other officers who deserve
as much have been compelled to wait.
We should Ike to hear rationa! reason
given Why Judge Abel should receive his
wages regularly when the Governor. the
State Printer and other parties who dis
charge their duties with fidelity and under
standing are compelled TO wait. This
trucking to the judges has been construed
by the public as sort Of bride in dis.
guise. Or a retaining fee to secure favor
able judicial action in contested cases.
There can not possibly be any degree in
claims against the State. All should be
paid, but none in preference to another
Neither can We approve the recent action
by which payment of interest on the
free school bonds is suspended

SOME NORTHERN INTOLERANCES,

In an article Oh industrial unification.
We explained how the relations OF race in
the South could be made reciprocally re-
specttul. For this there is q reason found
no where else in the Union. The co,orot!
people here are producers Of staples which
require their labor. They have monop-
oily of mental services. and. SO to speak,
are Indispensable to society. Elsewhere
they are competers for wages which ali
require. and SO are regarded with jealousy.
No where in the world is the negro more
rigidly excluded from the shops OF the
mechanics than in Philadelphia. The
tiremen fights with the negroes are Of fre-
quent occurrence. and certain districts are
principally. we believe. occupied by the
coiored race.
The number Of free people of color in
Philadelphia has. according to the census.
not been increased by the act of emanci-
patton. L: was in 1860. 22,147, and in
1870. 22,l05: This proves the relations
between the races i'll the city OF brotherly
affections are not rs they should be.
The New York Herald has lately sent q
commissioner into the slums of Philadel-
phia. The report of criminality and des-
titution shocks the citizens themselves.
Another correspondent Of the same paper
makes al exaggerated misrepresentation
of the colored people OF Philadelphia
He puts language on their lips more bar
barous than that of plantation hand
twenty years ago. For the purpose of
putting men in derision he tells the fol-
lowing story. It is headed Theatrical
