This shows falling off of $50, which the
Radical census-taker ascribes to mortality
and migration" upon which the Amite City
Democrat, Of August %, remarks:
For the further edification of our readers on
the census question, we extract the following
from a letter received on Wednesday from one Of
the Democrats friends at Hammond:
81 send you q list of names amounting to 119
whites that have not been taken at all, except by
me, but the negroes have all been taken, and
great many added to the number that can not be
found down here. There are not more than Us
or 100 here in our little town. We would like
very much to have the mistake settled. Hoping
you will give this your earliest attention l re-
MAN, yours in haste"
We withhold the name Of the gentleman be-
cause we have not asked his consent to give it.
Having a deep interest in the welfare of the
parish, he took it upon himself to 60 around over
she community, and procure the names for US.
We have also communicated with physicians in
learn that the mortality and migration, since
aS70, has not been any greater than usual, and
especially not so much as to effect the white
population so extensively.
According to their observation, where there
has been one death among the whites there
has left another has come in. Taking the
Supervisors figures, the falling off has been ey-
elnsively with the white population. He claims
that the census of 1870 shows 1894 blacks, and he
now shows 1896 blacks, giving an increase of 202
backs. Therefore black population is on the
most fatal climate for white people; thing
never before known.
The census Of Tangipahoa, palpable fraud,
may be taken as q specimen brick of the
whole Radical job.

TIE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF PUB.
LILO SCHOOLS.

A statement and expose of the action of this
body would be found very interesting to
The entire public, inasmuch as it appears that
The appointment of teachers to fill vacancies
is matter that is fully free and open to all,
male and female. who may desire to apply for
leadership; and this, however, to be
awarded after having undergone free, full
and fair competitive examination by some
competent portion of this Board on points of
qualifications, etc.
This open system of competitive merit hav-
ing been adopted by the larger cities in this
country, has by them been more highly ap-
prcciated and admired than any other system
heretofore in use. And, while we seem to be
moving in the above channel limited exami-
nation only of the premises shows the adopted
discipline of the Board of School Directors to
be semi-fraud, and somewhat tinctured with
suspicion. This being the case, it forms one
OF the too common iniquities existing in New
Orleans. This is not question of color nor
sf politics.
This Board went into action last year, after
having adopted resolution that each one of
lis members should have, in turn, the priv
lege to nominate only one candidate during
HE year, to be appointed to leadership! Of
course, to this would be the exception, that
is, where the number of vacancies might pos.
xibly exceed the number of Directors.
Now, who does not see that this plainly
epens the door for any Director to nominate
whomsoeyer he pleases-Ais wife, his daugh-
aer, his aunt, in fact anybody, and that, too,
without the proper examination, and perhaps
qualifications Is it not plain to every one,
lat he nomination is pa.tiT-,S tie elE.Ya.

THE CENSUS.

Nsesms to be as hard to get the truth out
aa Radical official as it is to get blood from
n turnip or wine from q cabbage. The con-
usitution requires Cart. 2O) that census of the
ytate shall be taken in 1875. and every ten
ysars thereafter, for the express purpose of
asoe1taining and regulating representation in
Che General Assembly. The Legislature at
what ought to have been its regular session of
1S75, passed an act to carry out this provision,
and although one branch of the body was
without legal quorum during So out OF the
GU days Of the session, the act has
been acquiesced in by the people,
all desiring full and accurate enumeration.
In this desire they have been disappointed.
The work has been 80 carelessly done as to be
q subject of numerous complaints. In some
anytances it is believed that the returns are
false, fraudulent and Intentionally garbled for
n particular purpose, which is to increase the
REPRESENTATION of those parishes where the
negroes and Radical voters preponderate, and
90 decrease that Of parishes in which the
whites and anti Radicals have majorities
1t will be the duty of the General Assem-
bly, at its next regular session to apportion re-
presentation for the next election, by estab
kshing representative number, by which
shs delegation from each parish is to be fixed,
seach parish or representative district to
have as many representatives as the number
of its total population will entitle
"a to have, and an additional re-
preventative for any fraction exceeding |
one-half of the representative number.
As it is probable that the maximum num-
Der Q2O) of representatives allowed by the |
Constitution will be adopted, it is an easy |
ching 80 to manipulate the census as to de-
paiye Democratic parish of its fractional |
constituency by an underestimate, and to |
give Radical parish an extra member by an |
oyercount That the census has been tink-
cred and warped with that view is some
thing so entirely in keeping with Radical pro-
slivities that it does not surprise us in the
least As the evidence of this purpose comes
to the surface from time to time, we intend to
hy it before the readers of the BULLETIN.
The Constitution provides that in case of
Is informally, omission or error" in the Gen.
sas returns from any parish or representative
district the General Assembly may order a
new census there. We may expect, therefore.
that this so.called census will undergo
searching review.
In the Parish of Tangipahoa, the United
States census of 1870 makes the total popula-
hon 1929, out of which the recent census
zhows large decrease, as follows:

The new cattle distemper in England is
called ''the foot and mouth disease" The
same thing has prevailed in this country
among statesmen for years past. Its princi-
pal feature, and that which gives it its name,
is that the victim cannot open his mouth
without putting his foot into it.
