WILLIAM L. LUCAS, has been suddenly removed
from u.s. cut off in the midst of his usefulness ush'
cred into eternity without a moments warning. it
therefore becomes our melancholy duty, Is mark
Of respect to his cherished memory. and IS an

LAW OR NO LAW.

There has been no other case than ours in
the United States where the regular State
government has been controlled By an out
side and voluntary organization which
carries its points by means legal or Illicit.
as the particular purpose may require
q government decided to be lawful by the
formal authorities. its authority is in con.
test before Congress. yet it is termed a
"usurpation" and treat ed as such. Com.
binations are formed to overawe the law
full officers. They are armed, drilled. and
inhamed by the trumpet Of the press.
Before this power the executive and the
Returning Board stand powerless. The
Governor intrenched in the fortress and
protected by the power of the federal gov.
eminent, corresponds with his subordin-
ates by telegraph and with his opponents by
parley. He is beleagured, besieged. No
European king. against whom the people
have risen in revolution. has been more
completely deprived Of power or cut off
from succor. No commission which ever
came from the Republican Parliament to
Charles, from the National Assembly to
Louis. was ever more dogmatic and dicta-
torial to usurpers and tyrants than these
club committees toward republican
servant of a republican people. In pre-
JUDGE against a man. and greed for pa
tronage. they forget the respect due to the
Office which he holds and the trust which
he exercises.
We set aside all questions Of right in
yolyed in the actual administration Of our
government, but we affirm tina. it is the
duty Of all citizens in Il republic to await
the formal results Of adjudication accord
| ing to law. If the leaders in this move.
ment comprehended the true principles
of constitutions! government they would
know that it is the duty Of every citizen
to abide by the rules which he has him.

They ignore wholly the fact that the
federal constitution was intended to
deprive and iethrone force as political
arbiter, and to base the structure
of society upon the equal political
rights of all men. Under the federal con.
stitution the decrepit man Of seventy-tive
years was the equal Of the stalwart man

established. Do men think this practice
will pass away? Do they suppose that
the conflict will always be between men
skilled and resolute in arms, on the one
side, and a class incapable Of maintaining
the right of equal suffrage by arms. on the
other? The principle will remain. tits that
the men best armed and drilled shall in
politics as in war. control the govern
ment. There may never be again con-
test in which the man armed only with
ballot will hold it up in combat against
the man armed with broadsword. Never
again may feeble citizen rely upon the
distant or inadequate protection Of the
federal government. No army can pro-
tect from discharge. from blows. sneers.

by pistol or by poison. Against this there
is no remedy and no protection. Do not

there must be subdivision among the

other opposition ceasing. one-half the
free lances will take sides against the
other half. and the future conflicts of Lou.
isiana will be those Of blood alone:
The politician is never a scholar:
he despises any book except the book Of
numbers, whether of dollars or votes. If
he knew anything of history he would
know that the Federal Republicans in
tended to substitute law for war--to ward
off with bit of paper, the most trench
ent weapon ever welded by despot.
The politicians of Louisiana are too igno-
rant to know that they have repealed this
law, and restored that of the spear and
poignard. This will be the future rule OF
those who are determined to have and
hold the offices of the State by law or no
law.
There may be more equal division OF
muskets next time, and the bloodshed may
be greater. but the principle of force has
been established, and Louisiana must
abide by it; decisions.
