The Platform.

We, the white people OF louisiana,
embracing the democratic party, the
conservative; party. the white mans
party, the liberal party, the reform
party. and all others opposed to the
Kellogg usurpation, do solemnly re-
solve and declare that the government
now existingsin LouisionaA originated
in, and has been maintained by. force
and fraud in opposition to the will Of q
large majority Of the voters Of the
State. in opposition to the principles
Of the constitution of the United
States. aud in violation Of every prin-
ciple Of justice and liberty; that the
dominant faetien of the radical party
ia this State has.by false and fraudulent
rerresentstions, infaIned the passions
and preiudlces cf the negroes as a race
aesinst the. whites, and has thereby
made IL necessary for the white people
tounite and act together in ssefl-de-
fense !; and for .tha preservation Of white
civilization that the rights Of all men,
under the constitution and law Of the
land, must be respected -inviolate. ire
specIiye Of race, color or previous con-
.dition, but we deny that Congress- can
.coustitutianaliy enact lews TO force the
two races into social union or equality;
that the. white. people Of Louisiana
have no. desire to deprive the .eoloved
people Of any Of the rights TO which
Trey are entitled, but We are convinced
that rsfpSmsis imPeratively demand
ed, and nan be effected only by elect
ing to- oiiioe white men of capacity and
integrity, and we believe that large
numbers Of Qplored people will vote
withaus tn secure government which
must be beneficialalike to both races !;
that we disclaim earnestly any inten-
tion of carrying, Or attempting to car
~. the approaching election by VIC
1euce, and that the charges to this
effect, emenating froni our radical
enemies. are without foundation. and
are falsely made for, theo purpose Of
obtaining the aid Of the military forces
Of the United States, in order to
oyeravs the people, perpetuate the
existing nsurpation,, and eubvert the
true psiaciples Of the government; that
