baqqe1s and renegades shall be permitted to
organize and prepare the negroes for the
Meyef,on, be dangling from limb. We do
coming campaign. Without the assistance
OF these villains, the negroes are totally
incapable of effectually organizing them
selves, and unless they are previously ex-
cited and drilled, One-half of them aciu mol
come to the polls. and large per cent OF the
remainder ,cU rote the achite mans ticket.
The following is from the Minden Demo-
crat:
The remedy for all the evils that aff1ict
our State, aud every Southern State under
negro aud carpet-bag rule, Is very simple.
The incendiaries who flood our country at
the approach of every election must be
looked after; the proceedings of midnight
gatherings in dark and gloomy places
must be known. Incendiary teachings of
the pet-baggers and scallawags to in
flame the minds of the negroes must not be
tolerated again.
The Shreveport Times is par excellence the
champion and advocate of the White
League assassins, and from that paper we
shall make several extracts. In speaking
of the late murder of poor old negro man
in Caddo parish, that paper, in its issue of
July 90, says:
There has been some red-handed work
done in this parish that was necessary, but
it was evidently done by cool, determined
and Just men, who knew just how far to go,
and we doubt not if the same kind Of work
is necessary, it will be done.
OF the Grant parish massacre the follow
ing language is used:
We saw again that we fully, cordially ap-
prore what the white men Of Grant and
Rapides did at Colfax; the white man who
does not is a creature go base that he
shames the worst class of his species. We
say again we are going to carry the cleo
tiOns in this State next fall.
Speaking of the prospect of federal in
reference, the following paragraph appears:
If the federal government again strikes
them down, then let the infamy of the deed
rest upon the shameless despOtism that has
arisen out of the malignancy and hate of
the Northern people, beneath whose with
ering influence no sentiment OF liberty can
survive; under whose policy Of meanness,
cowardice and hate, every community that
does not worship it must be trampled in
the dust, and every civilization that does
not pay tribute to it blasted by its curse.
The Times of August contains the fol-
lowing:
1t has been charged that the white mans
party expecrs to achieve success BY intimid-
alton. This is strictly true. We intend to
succeed bv Intimidation, and we place lit
tie confidence in our numerical strength as
shown in the figures above given from the
ninth census We rely tor success solely
upon intimidatiOn-but not that intlmida-
ton which is the result of violence and
bloodshed; our weapons are not to be i'm
proved rifles and six-shOOters: the intlmid-
alton we propose to win by, is that which
a great and Just cause inspires in its Oppo-
nents; the intimidation which intellect, vir-
tue and all the manly qualities exercise over
ignorance, superstition and human deprav-
ity; the intimidation with which the spread
banners of triumphant civilization ILLS the
hearts of of it's foes, and with which the
cross of Christianity strikes the bowling
dervishes of brutal superstition.
The pleasing sarcasm of this paragraph
will be appreciated when taken in connec-
ton with the following extract. Speaking
of triumphant civilization such as the
Times would inaugurate when its day OF
political millennium arrives, we reproduce
the following paragraph from another corner
of the same issue, begging pardon of our
readers as we do 80, since, for long time no
one has gone to his grave from among US
more sincerely lamented by all who knew
him than the gallant young man to whom
this brutal paragraph refers:
THE INFAMOUS DEAD.
Our dispatches this morning contain the
gratifying intelligence that the infamous
wretch, DeKlyne, is dead. Or all the low
and dirty beasts that radicalism has i'm
T md a1 q
the meanest and lowest.
Some squeamish people may think that
now the fellow is dead, he should not be
abused. We think differently; such men
are disgrace to humanity and, alive or
dead, their infamy should be held up to the
execration of the world, and the youth OF
the country taught to loathe and despise
their memory.
With the following threat, from the same
delectable newspaper, of July 9, we con
clude our extracts for to-day:
If single hostile gun is fred between
the whites and blacks in this and surround
ing parishes, every carpetbagger and SCALA
rag that can be caught, ,ciU, IN t,relre hours
Merefrom be dangling from a limb. We do
not say this is in spirit of braggadocip, we
say it in the interest of peace, and we know
what we are talking about.
1t is with regret and modification that
we lay these extracts from our Democratic
exchanges before the public; but such an
animus is manifested by the opponents OF
republican government in Louisiana, that
we feel it to be our duty to present the
facts to the people of the State and Of the
nation.
In conclusion we will state that if any of
our Democratic exchanges, from which W 9
have quoted, feel that their sentiments are
not correctly presented in the extracts W 9
have made, if they will state wherein We
have done them an injustice, we will mos
gladly place them in different attitude
