KILL AND CRY OUT RIOT.

Such is the policy Of the thing without
name. They stamp their trail with blood,
and cry out against the murdered colored
man. They threaten and buster. The law
abiding citizen is accused of timidity
unless he joins in the massacre.
The Bulletin of last evening accuses the
REPUBLICAN of being afraid. 1t is ad-
n.itted; We are afraid that large number Of
defenseless colored citizens will be muir
dered. The concluding clause of the Bull
leti1,'s article gives assurance that the fear
is well founded. Read: When the time
comes it may have good cause to cry out
against shotguns.'
Now, it is not proposed to wait till
all Republicans are killed before defensive
policy is adopted. The Republican party
is the party Of law and order, but if at
tackled those under it's banner can fight
exceeding we'll Time was when the
boast sounded forth that one Southerner
could whip five Yankees. Soldiers respect
one another, and the true Southern chiv-
airy ridicule the old idea. Does the
White League now til ink to reinstate it?
The time OF shotguns to which the
Bulletin knowingly refers will find the
:REPUBLIcAN disdainfully indifferent.

PORcED RESERVATIONS.

The results to be accomplished by the
White Leaguers in banding together and
forcing officials in the country to resign
their positions; viii never be profitable
enough to pay fpr the trouble and disgrace
Of the outrages.' As a general rule, none
Of the designations thus extorted will be
accepted by the Governor, and the people
who thus permit the laws to be trampled
under foot will be obliged to get along the
best way they can until the return OF
peace. Supervisors Of election have been
or will be appointed for each parish, and
such appointments will stand till the cleo
ton. If the officers are permitted to dis
charge their duties without molestation,
then elections will be held and the returns
received. But if not, there will be vacan-
cies, since no legal election can be held
except in accordance with the forms OF
law. We learn that in one of the northern
parishes the supervisor has been COM
PEELED to resign. But the Governor is
determined to continue him in authority,
and leave it entirely with the people to
say whether he shall be permitted to dis
charge his duties or not. Certainly they
have as much interest in the matter as the
administration has.

The UTILITY OF PREPARATION

*'An ounce Of prevention is worth a
pound Of cure, is maxim applicable to
the administration Of justice as well as to
most other matters. The half-expressed
threats which appear from time to time
in the newspapers and also fall from the
lips Of indiscreet White League orators
may or may not mean something. 1t will
be well for the police authorities to give
due weight to them and be prepared &C
cordingly. We are assured that this is
the policy resolved upon, and ready to be
put into execution the moment it seems
to be necessary, We are for peace and
quiet even if we have to fight for it.

THE SENTIMENT OF THIS PEOPLE. y

THE SENTIMENT OF THIS PEOPLE"
A little more than year ago a large
number of citizens of both colors assem-
bled together and subscribed to platform
of principles which We publish on the first
page of this mornings REPUBLICAN. The
local opposition papers of that day (none Of
them except the Bee are now in existence,
we believe), declared these resolutions
embodied the sentiments of "our people. )"
Since then, however, according to the ex-
isting veracious chroniclers of public opin-
ion, "our people have been up to Baton
Rouge, nominated seven lawyers for the
seven important positions to be filed at
the November election and adopted a
platform exactly opposite to that agreed
to in July, 1873 Can it be possible that
"our people" are led about by fercely
contending factions and made to hurrah
for the victor Of the hour, while the echoes
of plaudits for rival have scarcely died
away? Surely "our people" are strange
set, or have wonderful interpreters.
The unifcation platform is tolerable
production. If honestly carried out al
most anybody could live under it; but the
Baton Rouge articles Of faith are intended
for the benefit Of something less than
half the people-perhaps no more than
one-fourth. Yet these antagonistic de-
claratiops Of political faith have been
New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1874-09-01
MORE PROOF.

The New Orleans Bee, from the stand
point of French politics, urged some
months ago the organization OF volun-
teer military force to prevent frauds after
the election and to insure the anticipated
victory to the White Leaguers. It repeats
the same advice and seems to think that
''an organization, imposing by its discip-
line and numbers, will no doubt suffice to
prevent trouble from arising, and will be
the best safeguard Of the public peace"
As such an organization and discipline of
900, 900 conservatives" could mean moth
ing unless armed, we infer that this
Partisan proposal involves the usual Gallo
settlement-by blood and fire. Printed,
however, in the dead languages and
limited to few faubourgs in circulation,
De care to translate no further than to
cite this organ Of disafection as an add
tional evidence Of o predetermination to
continue that domestic violence of which
SO many unhappy proofs already exist,
but which the especial White League
organs feebly disayow. 1t is probable
that in this event the European Legion
shall be again organized to preserve the
peace Of New Orleans, that we may again
have some thousands Of appeals to the
French cosnul for reclamation and pro-
lection.
We confde too much in the stability of
the American business population, white
and black, and in the Just and deliberate
German to appreherd that this eme.1e,
we believe they call it, will amount to
anything more than ''the discipline and
organization" of the same element in
jackson square last year. They surren-
dered to the United States troops then,
and We presume will do the came thire
agaiu-or to the French consul.

The Bake, which claims to be the Off
cial organ Of the three Oranges in this
State, indorses the nominations made at
eve the white peoples convention at
Baton Rouge. This We consider liberal
and manly. n other States the Changers
have insisted upon representation in all
political contests. Being men who live
entirely upon the profits CT their own
agricultural labors, as is the case in Lou
isiana, excepting, perhaps, the secretary
of the State Grange and few prominent
officers of the order, they have zealously
pressed their claims for voice among
those who govern They have regarded
themselves, the tillers of the soil, as the
rightful rulers of the land. They have
denounced monopoEes and political trick
cries. In the West tie Patrons have made
themselves felt. Men from their own
ranks help make the laws, and there the
Changers are strong IN political influence
for their country's good or evil In this
State there is DO such feeling
The laboring men Of the South, at least
those who have dark skins, men upon
whom the success Of planting entirely de-
pends, are excluded from oranges. This
makes the order more select, but less {,
representative Of agricultural interests.
The Rake publishes a list of seven candiu
dates, the Treasurer and Congressman, to
be voted for by the Democrats and White
Leaguers at the November election, and
seven out of the seven candidates are law
yers. Who can accuse the Changers now
of interfering with politics? There is
nothing mean about the Rake, it turns
itself over to avoid scratching, and says
the lawyers ''are gentlemen of most unex-
ceptionable character and talent" The
