THE FEDERAL TROOPS In LOUISIANA

A Washington dispatch says: .The re-
quest of the Committee of Seventy tor the
withdrawal Of the Federal troops from Louisi-
ana before the Returning Board proceeds to
canvass tie votes cast at the recent election,
will be refused by the President on the
ground that there is no satisfactory evidence
that the legal State government is strong
enough to protect the State from domestic
violence and to execute the laws It is the
opinion OF prominent officers that the with
drawal Of the troops at the present time
would be speedily followed by another up
rising and ejectment of Kellogg from the
Gubernatorial chair"
1t was never contemplated by the founder
of this Government that the executive authors
ity of State should owe its existence to the
will Of the Federal Government and not to
the will of the people; and the Governor who
only holds his seat by the support OF Federal
bayonets is not the executive head Of free
State, but a servile minion of a lawless despo-
tism. In his refusal to withdraw the troops
by whom the people of Louisiana are now
oEerawed, President CIR mt not only acknowl-
edges the utter imbecility of the illegal State
government which he has set up in Louisiana,
but gives the country practical illustration
Of centralism which should cause serious ap-
prehension in the minds of the people of all
the States for the perpetuity of our Republi-
can system of State governments.-Sd

FROM ST. TAMMANY PARISH.

Editor New Orleans Bulletin:
As an effort is being made before the State
Returning Board to swindle the people of St.
iammany out of the services Of Hon. Max
Cousin, whom they have elected to the Legis-
lature, propose to give q few facts TO expose
the infaEy Of this attempt.
In st. Tammany 1913 voters were registered
and 1179 votes were cast. There was large
white registered majority, and the Democrats
claimed and the Republicans conceded the
parish. The vote on the State ticket stood:
For Moncure, Democrat, SCI for Dnbu-
clet, Republican, 5S1, 20 majority for Moore,
Democrat, 558 for Nash, Republican, SIS, Il
majority tor Parish Judge, Thompson, Dem
ocrat, $50 Dupart, Republican, 598, 66 ma
jority; for Sheriff, Cook, Democrat, 531
Schultz, Republican, 595, GA majority.
For the Legislature-Armand j. Cousin,
Republican, 585 Maxine Cousin, Democrat,
594, 9 majority.
The Vaudeville Wave, the official journal
of the parish, a Republican newspaper, in its
issue OF the 7th November, 1874, says: IF
Max Cousin is elected, it is by colored voters.
He only claims nine majority, and more than
that number of colored men voted for him, in
Vaudeville alone. He is in honor bound to
voted for him, to pursue a Conservative and
Again the WAGE, in same issue, says: "The
N. o. Times comedies that the Republicans
carried St Tammany, all except the Repre-
sentative and says, they lost him because the
friends of Charles Morgan, who was removed
from the Office of Registrar, scratched his
name and beat him."
Now here is proof of Max Cousins election
A white registered majority; only twenty Re-
publican majority on the State ticket; "more
than nine colored men in Vaudeville alone
voting for him; white Republicans voting for
him; and the friends of Charles Morgan, an
influential white Republican, scratching A. J.
Cousins name from the Radical ticket, to
punish him for having Mr.. Morgan removed
by Kellogg as Supervisor of Registration. In
the face of these facts, the Returning Board
will hardly dare to "coant" Max Cousin
"out." II they do, st. Tammany has true
hearted sons, who will not submit to the
wrong A NATIVE OF ST. TAMMANY.

The MosBY AND GRANT SENsATIoN.-The
Washington correspondent of the Baltimore
Sun writes:
The great influence Of Col. Mosby with the
President continues to be the most interest
ing andNllarmins topic in the circles Of the
faithful. 1t is the cause of much lamentation
that, as it is said, Mosby has more influence
with the President than any other living per-
son, not excepting a member Of the Cabinet
or Senator. 1t is openly said on the streets
to-day by prominent Radicals that the Presi-
dent must break with Mosby. The
President is however. not the man to be
dictated to in this or any other matter,
and the impression is daily growing stronger
that things are rapidly drifting to rupture
between him and Congress. The next session
will now be undoubtedly much more lively
and exciting than has heretofore been antici-
pated. The Radicals are fondly prognosti-
eating all manner OF dissensions in the Demo
cratic camp year from now. The pro ability
is that the dissensions in their own counsels
will keep them too busy to profit by any divi-
sions of the opposition 1t is limited that
Senator Morton is calculating whether it will
not be wiser for him to remain on the Pacific
Coast this winter, and thus keep aloof from
the complications which are impending in his
party.

Gardiner was the candidate of the White
League. There are no White Leagues in Cal

claimed to be Democrats, Kirkman being en-
dorsed by two Democratic Conventions in
Calcasieu, and Robertson by both the Demo
cratic and Republican Conventions of St.
Landry. Robertson was not the Irregular
Democratic nominee" nor did Kirkman &C
cept "the Radical nomination" The Plea

latter statements. = Opel0usas Courier, 18th

The CROPS. The rice, corn and sweet
potatoe crops of this parish are good this year.
As we now have, or expect soon to have a
Democratic State Government in Louisiana,
and with plenty to eat throughout the country,
no doubt many strangers who are in search Of
good lands and a home, will single out this
State as the best place to immigrate to. The
orange crop of this parish is good, but the
recent drouth has injurned it somewhat,
the oranges not being quite the size they
usually get to be.-Lahce Charles (Cdlcasieu)

We hear of some threats and attempts to
run over some Of the colored men who voted
for us, by the Radical negroes. We are told
that some of them attacked the house OF Car
ter Carr, in town, one night last week. Now,
We have this to say to the Radical negroes in
this parish: If you touch hair of the heads
of any colored man for voting with us, every
white man in the parish will rush to his de-
Tense, and you will find it rather lively times
for you. This persecution must and shall
end right here, and right now. Every man
shall vote as he pleases, and while we will not
trouble you for voting against us, you shall
not trouble any man who voted with us. Try

LARGE PORK PACKING HOUsE.l

One of the editors of the Springfield
Mass Union, who recently visited Indian
apolis, writes to his paper: Why, just think
of it, Indianapolis has one pork factory which
manufactures huge hog into placid pork in
two minutes by the watch. Messrs. Kingan
h Co., the proprietors, have the largest pork
factory in the world, and pay out over 81, 600,
their business. Il got these figures from
headquarters and know what am talking
about). Fifteen hundred hogs are slaughtered
daily, at an expense of $4,000 for live stock,
labor, casks, boxes, salt, ETC., and the curing
is done by patent process which enables the
,proprietors to ship their pork to foreign
countries in the best possible shape.
Whole floors of an immense building are
devoted to the slaughtering process, others to
the curing, and others still to the storing Of
pork in freezing cold apartments, where the
coolest of cold air is manufactured to order.

SOLDIERS AT THE POLLS.

We are informed that ON ele ton day,
O'Neal Deputy United States Marshal in Bos.
sier parish, made his appearaner at Minis
school house precinct at the head ola squad Of
Federal soldiers, literally scattering the
voters from the polls, and arrested a white
man, though upon what charge we did not
learn. This arrest was evidently pretext, as
the man could no doubt have been arrested
Just as we'll elsewhere and at another time.
The desired result was accomplished, how
ever, as the box went largely Eadical, which
would not otherwise have been the case.
Gen. Emory issued orders for his troops to
remain in their quarters on election day, but
Merrill pursued an altogether different policy.
A squad Of soldiers was sent to Greenwood,
one to Spring Ridge and one to Campo Bello,
all in this parish. II they did not make their
appearance Immediately around the ballot
boxes they were stationed very close by
1t is a clear violation of the law for soldiers
to be stationed in the vicinity of voting pre-
cincts, the penalty Tor which, if we are not
mistaken, is imprisonment in the penitentary.
OF course it would be the duty of a COM
handing officer to aid the Deputy United
States Marshal in suppressing riot which
might necessitate the presence of the soldiers
at the polls. but Major Merrill will not have
the hardihood to assert that there was riot,
or likely to be one, at either OF the precincts
above named.
Under these circumstances has not Major
Merrill rendered himself liable to a criminal
prosecution ?-Shreueport Times, 18th.
