THE WHIP WINS,

The Hatchman, of Carroll parish, ex-
presses itself gently on the subjec! of call
ing convention in New Orleans for the
purpose Of establishing Or starting 2
Democratic party in this State, first
stating that the Conservative central COM
mittee acted wisely in postponing action
in the matter until next year. 1t says in
February next the country parishes could
be fully represented in State conven-
ton, while in November we will have to
take up any person whose business conve-
nience may allow him 10 go to New Or
leans" From such declaration we infer
that the crossroads storekeeper who has
hats and caps to buy will be sent as a
delegate to represent the people. Smart
ing under the thought, the Watch
man says: I'VE think there is a
smacking Of the party lash in these hasty
proceedings of the quid nuncs in New
Orleans" But" it continues, ''as the
thing has started, We are for seeing it
through now, like we did about the war.
Let us have meeting and send delegates,
and go the whole hog" The whole hog
is precisely what the quid nuncs want,
whatever they are. It was the whole hog
business that brought about secession
and the war. Union men had no chance,
and the counsel of conservative men was
overruled. Men vino are making crops
and attending to business, protest
against the stirring up of the strife
sure to follow a convention; but the New
Orleans whippers tell the country workers
that they must come in. The whip
cracks as it did when the State was driven
out of the Union; the countrymen sink
individual opinions, and obey their dri-
vers like good little lambs. By all means
let the architects of future Democratic
party have a whole hog convention, and
place themselves on line with Ohio and
New York. The thick headed gentlemen
Of the country are little backward in
coming forward, but the whip will win.

A POLITE INVITATION DECLINED,

Mr. Packard, chairman of the Repub.
ican State Central Committee, has written
letter to Mr.. A. II. Leonard, of Shreve-
port, offering him seat in the front rank
of the Republican party, provided he will
wash his hands Of his present affiliations
and come squarely into line. The immi-
hence Of straight out Democratic con-
vention, in which all those who actively
favored the Wheeler compromise are to be
excluded, afforded the occasion for Mr..
Packard's letter.
Mr.. Leonard virtually declines to accept
the polite invitation, but points out a way
In which the Republican party can be
brought nearer to him than it has been
heretofore. How far it will be practi-
cal to remove the political mountain
in the direction Of Mahomet is question
which we are unable to answer. But
until the necessity for some of the meas
ures which Mr.. Leonard wishes to have re-
pealed shall be removed, it will be diff
cult to obtain the consent of the Repub.
hcan party to that end. It certainly
would afford novel spectacle to see
great party of this or any other State
changing its whole policy in exchange for
the promised accession Of one recruit to
it, ranks. ,,sis
We think Mr.. Leonard asks too much.

desired representation on the School
Board in the proportion of three to one,
in other words a majority of Democrats in
board appointed by Republican Super
intendent. And this, he concluded, would
make the board purer and less of politi-
cal body. Politics, he thought, should
not enter such board, but this seems a
strange way to keep them out.

A THREATENED INJUNCTION,

All other means failing, "we"-the
Lafayette square meeting-intend to test
in the United States courts the constitu-
tionality Of the school tax. We do not
see any objection to making this test. The
great difficulty would be in finding a law
bearing on the subject. The two legal
gentlemen who spoke at the meeting evil
IDENTIFY know of none, or, it is to be pre-
sumed, they would have referred to it in
their speeches.

THE SOUTHERN REPUBLICAN GLIB D


An association of gentlemen has been
formed in this city, to be known as a
political organization with the above title.
We print over the signatures of Thomas
Mcknight president, and L. Sewell, Sec
rotary, declaration of principles adopted
by the club at the meeting of Wednesday
evening. There is much to approve in
the platform, and nothing which can not
be subscribed to by the most patriotic and
best citizens of Louisiana. The Union is
foremost in the heart of every true Re-
publican; the constitution as it is must
ever be the foundation rock of our faith;
the enforcement of the laws is all that can
be asked for by the most exacting.
We cheerfully give place in our
columns to the platform of the
Southern Republican Club. Taking the
purposes of the association to be what
are declared in the club manifesto, they
have our support and cooperation. The
membership Of the club, so far as we
know, is personally unexceptionable. If
there is Wing who loves his State and
his country better than he loves the
Democratic party, we ask him to study
the declarations Of the Southern Repub-
lican Club. If there is an intelligent
Democrat, weary of the lash of his party,
let him make man of himself, and seek
alliance with an association of our own
people, who have for a motto, Louisiana
first, and party afterward." There can
not be too many Republicans in State
for States good, and we welcome the
Southern Club.

The opinions of those who voted against
article l35 in the Constitutional Conven-
ton of 1868 were of force before it was
adopted, but they can not be of any value
in an argument against its validity. II
the opinions had been in favor of it, Judge
Kennard might have used them to explain
it. All in the convention accepted the
final result as law, the highest law, and
have not presumed to question it since.

The Christian Adrocate draws the ex-
pected lesson from Texas disasters. 1t saye:
Literally some, figuratively all, are build
ing upon the sand. We see the instability
of wealth, and how easily God in His provi-
dence can break our idols in pieces. 1t is
better to build upon the rock and to lay up
treasure in heaven" This is exactly in the
line of argument used in Houston papers,
and in the main is injurious to the CONNER
cial prosperity Of Galveston.

It is the aim Of the Board of Commissioners to

Mexico and Central America, but it will be open 10
competitors throughout the country, and the
| general premium list viii! embrace al articles

cultural and Industrial Exposition, including
special premiums for strictly Southern products.
The premium list, which Is now in course of
publication, will be liberal scale, ard the
rules will provide for just and impartial sy stem
Of awards by competent and disinterested Jurors.
The Fair Grounds are generally conceded to be
the handaomest in the United States comprising
l1O acres, within fifteen minutes ride by street
| cars from the center of the city The grounds are
shaded by beautiful grove of live oaks, and the
| buildings, which are of recent construction, are
amply sufficient to meet all the necessities OF the
most extensive exhibition.
The Racing Course, which ia used by the Louis.
lana Jockey Club at all its meetings, is Justly
famous throughout the country, and the accommo-
dations for stock are unsurpassed.
1t is the first time that such an enterprise has
| been inaugarated at the South, aud being held at
time when the city of New Orleans is throu ged
with thousands Of visitors to participate in the
festivities of the Carnival, it affords unusual in.
ducements to exhibitors from every section of the
country.
The commissioners earnestly appeal to the poo.
pie of the Southern States to lend their sid and
encouragement to tie Exposition, and TO make it in
all respects a complete exhibition of Southern
productions, and tits hoped that manu- facturers,
producers and others in every section of the
country viii participate.

If Judge Kennard's speech had been as
temperate as that of Mr.. Phillips it would
have had more force. 1t is not sound
argument that consists first, in reliance
on the constitution and laws; and second,
in reputation of all in favor OF ''some
things that no human legislation shall
regulate" Both may be sound but being
inconsistent, they are alike two negatives,
and ruin the sense.

If the laws pointed out by him are not
necessary the party can be brought to
con sent to their repeal, and trust to the
people for proper appreciation of the
change of policy. If they are found to
be necessary they ought to stand on their
merits, even though we have. to so on in
the old fashion.

That Judge Emmons, of Michigan. de-
cided the civil rights bill unconstitutional,
or that Williams and Delano have retired
to private life, may be important to Michi-
ganders and Cabinet officers, but can
scarcely have any effect in interpreting
the State laws of Louisiana.

The civil rights bill, having no school
clause, has no bearing on a school ques-
ton in Louisiana. Congress having juris-
diction, if the clause had remained, the
law of Louisiana would have been SUPER
seeded As it is, it is a side issue, and
Judge Kennard might have dropped it,
and also all reference to Governor Kellogg,
and done no harm to his argument.

Potter Palmer is willing to bet he can
build such fire as will burn down any
hotel in Chicago except his own. He is
also willing to let any hotel proprietor try
to burn the Palmer House by building q
fire in the middle of any one room, the
kinder to pay damages to furniture after a
trial of one hour.

The meeting Wednesday night was an
orderly and, if fewer boys had been pres

was given to their milder remarks, and to
the sound sense of Mr.. Phillips.
