A SLIGHT MISUNDERSTANDING PROBA
RI,V

The Picayne is as much at sea upon
the much talked of compromise as it is in
the purport of Sheridan's dispatches. The
real difficulty in each case arises from
defective knowledge of the facts. In one
instance the General is quoted as saying
things he never thought of, and the false
quotation is made the text for political
diatribres against him and all those who
agree with him, which includes three
fourths of the people of the State, and
extremely fattering compliments to the
remaining one-fourth. For instance, a
statement that the Conservative members
can not be Permitted to take seats in the
Legislature is preceded by the following:
While the people of the State are some
what divided as to the policy or propriety
OF entering into an adjustment which, in
return for certain guarantees, will give
them the control Of the lower house of the
Legislature, etc.
VIII the Picayune be SO kind as to in
form us by what authority the control of
the lower house Of the Legislature has ever
been offered to the Democrats in return
for certain guarantees? An adjustment, or
compromise, or, more properly speaking,
New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1875-02-18

by the fact that they voted at the last
election. That these people have &C
cepted the Republican government is
proved by the fact that their representa-
tives accepted certificates under the law
of 1873 and under the Returning Board.
Will these unrepresented people allow
their political opponents to legislate for
them, to impose taxes upon their prop
erty? 1t is useless to say that this is an
illegal government The same thing was
said of the last Legislature, yet its laws
have been accepted and submitted to.
We await the verdict, therefore, with en-
tire confidence. The case is made up on
the Republican side. It remains for our
opponents to say whether they will accept
their share in the legislation or permit
their interests to go by default We shall
have no word of triumph if they accept,
and can only regret, on their own account,
if they do not accept.

WAITING FOR THE VERDICT.

The gentlemen attorneys who have so
kindly and gratuitously undertaken to
condnct the great suit of the Tichborne
claimants Of our State government, have
detailed some to proceed to Washington
and present the brief in the Democratic
caucus. Others remain and confer with
their clients at the Office base of Clay
statue. They heroically advise their eli
ents to hold on, and never consent to be
represented until the credentials of MIR.
McEnery shall be acknowledged, and the
Legislature be wrested from the hands of
the Republicans. When asked when this
will be, the counselor replies it must GER
tainly come after the Presidential election
of 1876. But the client may say my bust
ness has gone, my house is advertised for
city taxes; Il have have stood this as long as
can be endured. Every day the agony is
more intense with the increasing inability
to bear it. Then the counselor will ex-
postulate with the misery of this man, and
finding him determined not to persist in
the political controversy until his own
ruin is complete, will adopt the words of
the philanthropist to the degenerate knife
grinder and denounce him
Wretch whom no sense of wrong can rouse to ven.
geance!
Craven, degenerate. spIritless outcast!
And exit in transport of philanthropic
wrath and patriotic indignation.
We await the verdict. No action of
Congress will probably repeal the election
of Governor Kellogg. No order of the
President may be expected to withdraw
his protection to the Legislature during
the short remainder of its term. But the
unrepresented people of Louisiana,
what will they do? Will they decline
to allow their members to participate in |
the Legislature? That they had no OBJ
lection to Republican association is shown |

THE COUNTRY DEMOCRATIC MEMBERS.

| AA1 OVON41X U1MOChAxXC M6M66hS
The Picayune errs in its conjecture
that the REPUBLICAN affects to beliey
that number of Conservative member.
will be induced to bolt from their presen
agreement to strike against work, and re
turn to duty for the mere purpose O
drawing their mileage and per diem. W.
believe some of them are strongly tempted
to break the bonds which now hold them
in obscurity, throw party allegiance to the
winds and take the places to which they
are entitled by the votes of their constitu-
ents Many of these members are poor
men, who can not well afford to waste
their time in idleness, nor the money
necessary to defray their expenses for two
| months at the most economical boarding
houses, while nothing is coming in. This
demand upon the fifty or sixty members is
simply special tax laid upon them, an as
sessment for party purposes. Theirs will
be the expense, while others will reap the
gains, if there happen to be any. To de-
mand, therefore OF a member from one Of
the North Louisiana parishes that he re-
fuse to be sworn in as member of the
Legislature and forego his right to thou
sand dollars is simply to extort from him
that sum for tie benefit of others whom
we regard less deserving.
Perhaps the patriotic merchants will
make up these losses. The whole ma
chinery of the insurgent government has
been kept running by their money during
the past two years. Possibly couple of
hundred thousand more may no. be re-
garded as Of much consequence. When
they are promised the favor of this people,
unlimited patrona &c and special privi-
leges for complying, and threatened with
"spotting" if they refuse, they generally
comply, even tho ugh the next week brings
bankruptcy or a compromise with their
Northern creditors.
To return to the members. They are
hardly likely to take seats in the Legisla-
ture in the face of threats. Few or none
Of them have the courage to do so. Very
many of them hate and detest their lead
ers, and would be glad to be rid of them;
but they are held too fast. Both duty
and interest beckon them the way they
should go, but fear and prejudice are too
potent for them. They will probably go
out SO, and hereafter obey the laws of a
Legislature they refused to recognize, and
in which they were not permitted to take |
seats by their keepers. This has been the
policy pursued by the Louisiana Dem
ocracy for a number of years, and they |
ire too thoroughly welded to it to change
t for better.

bargain, can not be made by one party
alone, nor by that party and unauthorized
agents. We have watched the tone and
temper of the House of Representatives,
and have seen no disposition on the part
Of the majority to abdicate the strong
position they now hold Nearly fifty of
the members pledged themselves to unite
with the Democrats in the enactment of
laws which have been demanded by both
parties, but there was nothing said in that
circular about turning out Republican
members to make way for Democrats.
The offer of the Democrats was skill
fully gilded with promise to recognize
Kellogg as the "acting Governor" and
to remain silent as to his past official acts.
This proposition is without value, and
and has never had the least influence with
any intelligent Republican. In the first
place, no guarantees can be given that the
promise would be kept. Kellogg would
have been oyerthrown any day during
the past two years if his enemies had had
the power. They now ask that it be
placed in their hands, coupled with a
promise of forgiveness for past transact
tons. But he is to be considered only as
acting Governor. The real Governor would,
no doubt, be found in a very short time, and
installed according to the forms of what
the Democratic lawyers would construe
to be the law. With the power of the
House in their pc session there is no
kr owing to what lengths they would carry
things. But it is evident they have some
programme laid out which is inimical to
the Governor, but which can only be
carried out by captu ring, buying or OBJ
tanning in some other way the House. All
the discussions on this subject, SO far as we
know anything about it, have been con-
fined to the Democrats in secret caucus,
the discontents at Clay statue and the
Picayune. The people of the State are,
not consulted.

THE TRUTH vs.. PARTISAN ASSERTIONS

THE TRUTH vs.. PARTISAN ASSERTIONS
The Vicksburg Herald says:
Sheridan started out with telegram tt
Secretary Belknap, in which he declared
that thirtysix hundred negroes had beer
murdered in Louisiana! Colonel Brooks
came forward to support his superior, but
put the number at thirty five hundred only
General Sheridan ''started out" with
nothing of the sort. On the tenth day
of January he telegraphed to the Secre.
tary of War:
| Since the year 1866 nearly thirty five
hundre persons, a great majority of whom
| were cOlored, have been killed and acoundcd
in this State.
There should be no difficulty in under
standing the language written by the
General. Adding the killed and the
wounded together, as General adds
casualties in war, he thought the number
would reach thirty-fve hundred. His
estimate was entirely too low. On the
ninth instant he reported to the congress
sional committee as killed and wounded
since 1866 total of 1885, being 2115
wounded and 2141 killed on account of
political opinions; and the record is BY no
means complete.
The Picoyune frequently alludes to Cen
eral Sheridan's dispatches with the same
disregard Of reporting him correctly. In a
humorous editorial of the eleventh in
slant, in its best style OF writing, headed
''Short on Corpses," the Picayune says:
Sheridan comes out short in his murder
statement. He first asserted
that $500 persons had been killed in Louis
lana since 1866, on account of political
opinions.
And then follow statements based on
the erroneougirst statement, in the style
of the Vicksburg Herald and New York
World as regards truth.
Even the famous "banditti'' dispatch
has been distorted into something entire
ly foreign to its meaning or text. In his
dispatch Of January 5, General Sheridan
said:
think that the terrorism Row existing in
Louisiana, Mississippi and Arkansas could
be entirely removed, and confidence and
fair dealing established by the arrest and
trial of the ringleaders of the armed White
Leagues. It Congress would pass bill
declaring them banditti, they could be tried
by military commission.
That dispatch aroused the handful of
Louisiana politicians who claim to be the
State, but who are nothing in importance,
and the handful said: "The General has
called the people of Louisiana banditti."
He called them nothing of the sort. He
suggested that Congress should declare
Of armed White Leaguers to be
outlaws Of that description.
In another dispatch General Sheridan
alluded to the insecurity of human life in
this State. That was an opinion, current
in all parts Of the United States regarding
Louisiana, and the drummers, the preach
ers and the potato merchants have not yet |
been able to change it.
1t is not probable our Democratic pa
oers will ever tell the truth-that virtue
1as been ruled out Of the party-but they
night be more proftably employed than
aboring to contradict statements which |
never have been made.
