high and low places. Fortunately for the
future credit Of this State the people
could not be persuaded to believe the
Conservatives were such famous patriots
as they represented themselves to be, ana
chose majority Of Republicans to the
General Assembly. More than half the
session has been spent by the opposition,
under the advice Of their leaders and
journals, in q factious Assertion from
their duty. They made the impudent de-
mand of all or nothing. At first they
would not be satisfied with the large rep
resentation accorded to them in the
House. The executive Offices and the
Senate were wanted, and nothing less
than the entire State would content them.
In this they made most serious mistake,
which they have since discovered. They
have been held up to proftless fight all
winter, and see no prospect Of any benefit
coming to them or their constituents by
any longer continuing in the sulking
business. Thirty-eight of them have
broken loose from their leaders, and are
resolved hereafter to do their own think

SYMPTOMS OF REPENTANCE,

The announcement that thirty-eight
Democratic members of the House have
declared their intention to leave off the
boys play in which they have been en-
gagged for thirty days, and return to the
business and duties of manhood has made
the Bulletin almost frantic. The passage
of the civil rights bill by the lower branch
Of Congress on the same day is evidently
regarded as an additional disaster. Taken
together, these twin evidences of fairer
days to come constitute valid reason for
calling out the Northern militia to stand
armed guard over their rights.
The Dem ocratic party of this State is
really about to fall to pieces. There are
unmistakable symptoms of repentance
manifested by even some of the leaders,
while the n nk and file, whose only hos
tility to heir Republican neighbors is
supplied ih general orders, arel willing
enough just now to be friendly. The
late heroic efforts put forth by our OPP
ponents to- capture all the Offices either
By electio'h or decapitation and appoint
ment, has resulted in only partial success.
But in the late canvass there were certain
reasons laid down why the Democracy
ought to e ect their candidates. Reforms
Of existing abuses We're alleged as the
chief If not sole reason for a complete
political and personal change in all the

LOUISIANA COVERED"

A few weeks ago the Bulletin having ac-
complished everything else that seemed
necessary according to its philosophy for
the final redemption of an unhappy State,
announced with proud satisfaction that
the only duty left for it to accomplish
then was to work the revival and
restoration of the star car system.
Coming from the organ of men who
were busy then in making aAidavits
that the Creole Caucasian never would
suffer the colored man 10 De deprived of
his rights, the declaration that a gentle
man of African descent had no right to
ride in any public five cent mule car
provided he could put UP with the COM
pany of every pure blooded loafer- was re-
ceived with establishment by tl.s Rev.
Thomas Brown William Alexander and
other colored Democrats.
Thanks to the civil rights bill. Brown
and Alexander have their riding rights
guaranteed to them in spite Of themselves;
but the Bulletin will not progress; it sticks
to its errors with all the pertinacity Of a
star car mule. Yesterday there was
prospect of compromise The Demo-
Gratis called it a compromise when thirty
eight men who had been elected to serve
term il the Legislature, agreed to kick
out of the White League traces and re1aryL
to their duty-return to their seats
in the House which they left in
a mad moment without reason. The
Bulletin uses job type to bar the action.
It exclaims, in full face long primer, "Has
it come to this?" Louisiana covered ="
The question naturally arises, who or
what is Louisiana? Is it the com bination
of the twenty seven men who oppose the
healing of diffe, ences -the covered men?
Are they, or any other small set OF small

THE INTIMIDATION MEETING LAST
NIGHT

NitHI
Yesterday afternoon the Bulletin de-
clared, i'll big job type. that the people
were aroused. In proof of this it pub
lished card signed by twelve or fifteen
gentlemen, claiming to be the people,
asking for mass meeting at Clay Statue,
A glance at the names will satisfy any
intelligent Louisianian that they belong
to number Of men who have been cleft"
in the resolution which majority of the
Democratic members of the General AS
sembly have adopted in caucus.
A thousand or fifteen hundred very or
derby but apparently indifferent persons
appeared at the place Of rendezvous and
listened attertively to the resolutions and
speeches. It will be observed that this
mass meeting was composed exclusively
of citizens of New Orleans A majority
Of the gentlemen whose official conduct
they met to criticise live in the county
were elected by rural constituents and are
known as country members. It is very
kind in a New Orleans crowd to under
take to dictate political morality and give
orders to other peoples servants, to med
die in affairs that do not concern them.
The gentlemen who We're thus engaged
in tie intimidation business belong to
the minority wing of their own party
They are applying the same tactics to
their late political associates which they
have been practicing against Republicans,
and will probably make another signal
failure. We have 10 further interest
in the quarrel than desire to see every
citizen of Louisiana perfectly free to
choose his own political opinions and
associates, and to decide upon his own
action. Any system which denies him
these rights is tyrannical.

WHAT WAS THE REASON?

Mr. T. W. Abney witness before
the congressional committee, called by
the Democrats, testified that just before
the Coushatta prisoners were about to
start for Shreveport, under a guard Of his
appointing, he succeeded in persuading
one of the prisoners, Henry A. Scott, from
going with the doomed men. When
asked why he took an interest in Mr..
Scott, he stated he and Scott were Master
Masons. That explanation is perhaps
clear enough in itself, but is insufficient
as it stands. We naturally inquire, why
did Mr.. Abney use his influence to prevent
only Mr.. Scott going on voyage which
sent six gentlemen to terrible death?
The only inference to be drawn is that
MIR. Abney was apprehensive of what was
about to happen to those doomed half a
a dozen innocent men. Looking at the
matter from the witness stand
point, he took no interest whatever
in any, save one, Of the prisoners, and
that was because that one was a
Mason. Six men were not members of
lodge, therefore were not advised to avoid
the risk of danger which resulted in
death. Mr.. Abney's testimony shows him
to have been active in behalf of but one
person and remain silent while six untried
human beings were marched into the jaws
Of death. II Masonry were sufficient for
the witness to preserve a brother from
assassination, should it not have been
powerful enough to save six citizens who
had never been declared guilty of crime
by competent tribunal?
Mr.. Abney must have had some real
cause for advising his brother Mason
against embarking on that awful journey,
and this belief is backed up by the fact
that he appointed the ''guard. Perhaps
at no distant day witness may be pro-
duced who can and will unrayel that
which Mr.. Abney has withheld.

JUDGE A. B. LEvISEE.

The manly and independent course
taken by this gentleman in defense of
What he deems right has brought down
upon him something more than the
frowns of political enemie les. It has caused
them to threaten him with persecution
almost as fatal as that visited upon Him
who died upon the cross in order that
mankind might be saved. But from the
character given Judge Levisee by those
who dislike his political course he may be
fairly judged to be man who would not
complain OF their attempts to ostracise
him. lie may recosnize their desire to
