The Facts About Louisiana

The New York Tribune and the Northern
Democratic sympathizers with the McEnery
revolution, justify it on the ground taken
by the White Leaguers. that the Kellogg
State government Was not the lawful gov
eminent of Louisiana. Some who recognize
fully that even il that was the fact, there
against de taeto government, sustained by
the COURT, spend a great many more words
In denouncing the kellogg usnrpation, "
than they do in rebuking lawlessness and
mob violence. All of these make much Of
the report Of the Senate Committee and the
speeches of Senator Carpenter on the Louisi-
ans question. and claim persistently that
these show that the McEnery government
was the only rightful government The
facts are quite the other way. There were
two canvassing boards, one in the interest Of
Kellogg and the other in the interest OF Ne
Emery. The Lynch Board. which was the
kellogg side, was the legitimate board. but
the Warmoth Board, though not legal
body, managed to get hold of the returns.
The Senate Committee held that the legal
returning board, which declared the Kellogg
ticket elected, had not the official returns
before 1t, and the conclusion of their report
was that there ought to be new election.
The report said IF the Senate should be
Inclined not to 20 behind the official returns
