Sound Views.

Hon. w. It. Herman, ofEast Feliciana
who was q. candidate for Attorney Gen.
eral OH the Liberal State ticket, before
fusion, has published his views of tho
political situation, in a letter addressed
to the Clinton Patriot Democrat news.
paper ofhis parish. From it We extract
the following, which expresses exactly
the opinions and sentiments we have
been advocating: @
"a The Baton Rouge Conventions having
declared in their platform that ffwe are
convinced that the reforms i~mperatively
demanded can be effected only by elect
ing to office white naen of known ca
pacity,n thus presenting MS a prominent
feature lid. the present canvass an issue
based OH race and color, it becomes a
dttty-f owe no less to myself than to My
felIow-citizens to assign the reasons
which cOnsfraiii me to dissent from this
action.
Z The citizens of Louisiana having ac-
copied, in good faith, the fourteenth and
fifteenth amendments of the cOnstitu-
ton of the United States, and the Flu
sion party having recognized the right
of colOred citizens to representation in
the State government, ly nominating
and electing, on the McEnery ticket, a
coiored man as Secretary of State, I
think they ought to abide by the prin-
ciples and policy proclaimed in the last
memorable campaign in our State. The
people have not been favored with any
reasons, that / have seen, proving the
principles and policy then announced to
be- erroneous, and i am nptaware of any.
lf a constituency, under the laws and
constitution OEthe United Suites, and
OF this State, Z proper 10 elect d col
Ored man To Office, [ know of no sufi-
Gent reason why they should not be al
lowed to exercise their choice. and why
he should not be allowed TO discharge
the duties OF the Office to which the vote
Of bis feIlowrcitizens have called him.
The only correct principle upon which
the people can safely act In the election
Of men to Office, is that announced by
jefferson, more than half aeentiTy ago,
to-wit; is he honest, is he capable, is
he faithful to the constitution 9S and
this, without reference to race or color.
A race issue is inexpedient, mas
much us it will not bring an additional
vote to- the candidates nominated, but,
ON fhe contrary, will have Il powerful
tendency to drive very many into the
Republican ranks, who. otherwise would
be disposed To vote the ticket presented.
The Republican party, Units platform,
has declared Id favor of the passage OF
the civil rights bill, now pending before
Congress. Upon this issue, the. battle
has already been fought Ia some Of the
Northern and Western States, and the
victory D 1t was q mistake that the
Baton Rouge Convention did not make
the contest solely upon the same issue,
aud thus continue to act in unison and
perfect accord witIthe conservative and
patriotic citizens throughout the, Union.
,I n issue must, ct necessity form one
party in 1876.
The announcement of the " race.issuen
will, In no small measure withdraw from
us the sympathy and support 0f our
friends, which was 40 rapidly
turning iii onr favor. and which We so
greatly need in our oppressed and de-
piOrabIe condition.
