Editor Cuuc0siuM:
DEAR Sir lin tho interest OF the
country, I desire to ask if any deci-
ded efforts las yet been made TO pro.
cure means to enable Mr. II. H. Mari
to 10 to Washington to represent
the Colfax case.
II one thousand dollars has not
been raised, some active canvassers
Ought to be Mt work without any de-
lay. In view of recent events in this
State, it becomes more and more i'm.
portant that Justice Bradley's Wow
Of the constitutionali'y Of tho En-
fo:cement Act should be maintained.
Almost the whole OF the Federal in
reference in the Southern States has
been under this Act, and must, il the
Act is pronounced unconstitutional,
at once cease. Our people will SEQ
how essential it is TO have this case
properly presented to tho Supreme
Court not only in the interest of
our friends who are directly concern
cd, but also in the general interest Of
the State Of Louisiana, S,.vreisn,
tlro!tled by what should have been
its servant.
We are expecting Messrs. Hour,
Frye and Wheeler, Of tho Congress
sional Committee this week all rad
iccls. What their purpose IS can on
ly be surmisea. The Radicals here
think that this part 0! tho Commit
tee will arrange for partisan conn
ter report. II the action Of tbe Gov
arnmcnt is TO DO sustained by even
one fourth part OF tbs American pco-
pie a strong "bloody shirt" report
mnst be had from some quarter.
Whatever may be their purpose we
shall, il allowed, endcavor to se; the
truth before them.
Our Legislature is still firm, bnt I
think they may adjourn this week.
Rapides is INIT ngainst compro-
mise with The illegal md dcpraved
body at the State House. Nothing
short of bcin. recognized rs The le-
gal Legislature viii be entertained
by us. A minority no matter how
large, would be powc,less for good
in such body MS this wonld be, and
there is no question in my mind ns to
our duty. ] am opposed to legal.
ziny their Infamous body but think
it best to leave it at it's present sta
lus-tl,e whole affair from Governor
down being ~ mere set OF puppets
sustained alone by y. S. bayonets-
holding their places not by the viii
Of the people, but directly in opposi-
ton to snch will-s,!ch blot upon
republican institutions cannot exist.
We arc upon tho ridge and must
slide off on the side OF Capitalization
and Imperialism, or else on the side
Of Constitution and States Rights
[ have no doubt as to the side, and
would say to our people, as Senator
Thurman said to us the other day,
"be patient" very hard advice to fol-
low. Under all circumstances we must
keep the pablo reace-and trust
to God and the American people for
relief, at the same time, relaxing no
individual efforts in any possible di-
rection. 1t will never do to give up
tho ship.
I hope our colorcd friends and adj
herents may be in no respect discour-
aged--we mean them good, and the
day is not far distant when peace
and goodwill shall pervade the land.
Yours truly,
JAMES JEF'FRIES.
