demption. The few who are fortunate.
enough to get Office may experience SOM e
thing like a change Of condition for the
better: but the general run of taxpayers
and business men are more Likely to see
worse times than ever before than any
amelioration. It is an open question,
however, and every voter ,nas right to
his opinion, andto express it at the ballot
box. We join with tie ninth ward poll
ticians in demanding fair election.

The San Francisco Bulletin, in a late issue,
says: "Small dealers are complaining that
enough Of five cnt pieces can not be OBJ
tanned for the transaction of business. So
great is the demand for these CONS that
premiums varying from two and half to
five per cent in gold are paid for them. The
cause of the scarcity is probably owing to
the fact that the mass of the people are be-
sinaing to insist upon a more accurate re-
turn of change than has heretofore been
cua.omarv''

Oh THE RIGHT TRACK AT LAST.

The Democracy Of the ninth ward have
at last concluded 20 address themselves
10 the business Of defending their posi-
ton at the ballot-box. In g circular re-
Gently issued and signed by abou. twenty
persons of various degrees Of Importance
the following is made to the faithful:
II is evident from the events of the las.
few days that Our only hope o; salvation i.
in the baliotb box. Let us be active and ON
the alert. Tbs enemy are maxim. an effort
TO cheat MS OF the elective franchise. Tina.
a!of. must DC frustrated. Register then a.
once. Delay not. for DELAYS are dan oercus.
Shake OF the 'lespon.ency land apathv en-.
gendered BY your despair. and show to our
friends abroad who are now workin. for
our redemption, TIA: the true citizens Of
Louisiana W!!! never cease TO combat for
their rights. Up then and =: them once
more.
No good Republican can otie.: TO this
Zine of warfare. Pe,tec. freedom to re.
Gister and vote is q cardinal doctrine o!
o"' party. We are all pledged TO it. We
do not care hcw many Democrats exercise
the elective franchise. If they ou:vote US.
we VIII suD!a!t as the EepUbHcaNs 90 IN
other States. Ia: we do no: want repe.
:it:on o: the scanda!ous practices o: 1872.
no: the violen: proceedings OF 1866 and
September Il. 1874. Let every man who
has right to vote exercise it freely. with
on. danger of losing his situation. and
we shall have no fear. Cor the result.
The great question OF redemption. which
is so glibly referred to by every little
politician, can be settled after the antici-
pated Democratic victory. AS we have
had two years Of that sort Of rule for the
State and four of the same for the city
since the war, wit bout any satisfactory re-
suits to either, We must be pardoned if
We are little skeptical about sudden re-

The New York World ventures TO believe

complete and wildly dramatic an account
of the New Orleans revolution as the
World has given its readers. 1t is proba-

than the Worlds account of the inaugura.

Governor, amid the cheers Ct the entire

the wicked World.

MIsREPRESE NATION.

The New Orleans Tax-Lst alias the New
Orleans Republican, in pursuit Of its predeter
mined policy of misrepresentation cites two
articles which appeared in the BULLETIN a.
an evidence Of an incendiary spirit and al
proof Of our desire fer trouble.
The cool etfrontery with which this stipen
dian Of the usurpation systematically perverts
every act of the white people, and every article
which appears in the columns of the white
press, both in the city and country, would be
aggravating were it not that we make due al
lowances for the desperate game which that
paper is playing for existence.
We have only to remember that the success
of the white people means the cessation OF
political pap, and our anger is turned at once
in pity. We say pity, because it is pitifill
to see so much ability and genuine newspaper
talent as is evidenced by the Republican,
thrown away in attempting to bolster up 50
bad cause.
But to the articles in question. They con
tain nothing to which even sensible Radical
can object. We said explicitly that the
officers and troops Of the United States should
have from our people all proper respect. Is
the Republican willing to say more?
We said that the white people solemnly
proposed, while conceding perfect liberty OF
action to the negroes, t, cast their votes at
the next election, spite of any and all opposi-
ton. Perhaps that was what offended the
Republican. We can readily imagine that
such statement would be extremely distaste-
full to the Republican and the friends of the
usurper generally.
The announcement of such determination
we confess, is, and ought to be, alarming to
the Radical party which has heretofore won
its victories by fraud or by the white people
holding aloof and taking no part in the cleo
tons. They realize fully that when the white
people move together and cast their votes
so idly for ticket, that ticket must neces-
sarily be elected, provided the votes be fairly
counted. Will it make the Republican nervous
if we declare that we propose to see the votes
fairly counted?
We repeat that we have said nothing that
can be construed by malice itself into incendi
arism. In regard to the threat Of the United
States officer referred to in our Friday issue,
We will state that We regarded it as mere idle
yaporing, inasmuch as there exists no reason
why troops should be sent here. The
people are peacefully disposed, and
the changes that Lave occurred in the
country have been the result Of peaceable as
semblases Of citizens regardless of politics,
with the view of Kidding themselves of the
thieves and plunderers who had been set over
hem by kellogg. There has been no vio-
ence anywhere. except such as happens every
lay in New York and Massachusetts,, and
lothing of character to de mand the presence
# United States troops
