New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1875-01-17
ALMOST PERSUADED,

A report was current q few days ago,
which created considerable conservation
in the opposition camp. For some reason
or another the impression prevailed that
Hon. Mr.. Martin, member of the House
from Lafayette, had become tired of the
boys play Of hide-and-seek now INDUCED
in by the Democratic members. and had
expressed determination to quit it and
look after the interests of his constitu-
ents. The Picayune heard Of it., and
began to crack the party whip vigorously,
limited at the wishes of Mr.. Martins con-
stituents, about whom the editor pro-
fessed to know more than the honorable
gentleman himself. ending with the ex-
preston Of implicit confidence in his
good faith to he cause of the new revolu-
ton against the State government.
We do not know what grounds there
were for the Picayau,e's fears, or the faint
hopes of the R epublicans. We have not
heard anything more of the matter, and
presume Mr.. Martin either had no such
intentions as were imputed to him, or has
been frightened into obedience by the raw
head of Camp street. As for his constitu.
ents, We can inform the Picay,tne. there
are more Republicans than Democrats
among those who voted for him. Mr..
Martin, though Democrat, was not the
nominee of the White League party. but
ran in opposition to their candidate. He
received the entire Republican vote of
Lafayette parish. together with such Con-
servatives as were Independent enough to
vote without dlctation. His constituents,
therefore. or a majority Of those who
voted for him. do not approve of his |
present course in consorting with the |
factious and revolutionary elements which |
daily congregate around Deutsch Com.
pany Hail.
New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1875-01-17
nELuaIYE HOPES.

BEFORE the election We had feformers by
| the hundreds in this city. Nearly every
Democrat who can write his name wanted
TO become legislator for the sole purpose,
pure and simple, of relieving the people OF
the intolerable burdens of high taxes and
high priced officials. But that was
quarter of year ago. There has been
great change since. The term Of sixty
days allotted by the constitution for legis-
lation is upon us and fast passing away
and we see the strange spectacle OF about
three score Jealous reformers loating about
doing nothing, and striving to do all in
their power to prevent others from doing
anything. About the only movement
in the direction of honesty and reform
that we have heard from the boiling
wing of the General Assembly has been
two or three abortive attempts to bride
Republican members to knock off and be-
tray the interests of their constituents in
the modern Democratic fashion. The op-
position papers affect to treat these prac-
tees jocularly. and indulge in the most
dismal sallies of wit in relating the dis
graceful proceedings. 1t is in our judg-
ment burning disgrace to the party that
resorts to such tactics to attempt to &C.
complish by bribery what it has hereto"
fore failed to secure by compound policy
of intimidation and affected fairness. 1t
is an old game of the opposition, how.
ever--one in which they have often sue |
ceeded. The failure of the plan this year,
however. has disconnected the leaders, and
The fuglemen are doing their very best to
augh it off at piece of pleasantly on the
part of some irresponsible young men.
Take it altogether. it is about as funny as
. funeral, and the desperate attempts to
olay the buffoon only show the CHASTITY
eatures in an aggravated form.
New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1875-01-17
THAT SAME OLD TWADDLE.

It is a strange confusion of thought
which can not distinguish between the
rendering OF simple justice to man as
man and the establishment of social
equality between incongruous social ele-
mehts. This confusion of thought ~ 4,
nevertheless. always displayed by that
class Of journals and people whose boast
it is to be thoroughly identified in interest
with the South, whenever any question
arises involving the political rights of
colored men. Such journals and people
always assume that those who favored the
liberation of the slave. and his subsequent
elevation to the rank Of suffragist, must
necessarily favor. likewise, his admission
to their parlors and their tables. The
assumption is utterly unwarranted. Nay,
New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1875-01-17

and by comparison establish which shoult
have precedence. It win be an occasio,
for the bringing together the peoples o
other lands that they may see what ha'
been wrought by free people for the ad
vancement of the arts and manufactures
during the years of their existence as 8
nation. To our own countrymen who
may live to witness this centennial cele'
bration it can not but be source Of pride
and pleasure to be present and participate
in its inaugurating ceremonies. and to
see the many objects Of wonder and adj
miration which will be there and then
displayed.
The founding Of a great republic, no
less than its progress in all that pertains
! to the making that republic an object Of
! esteem among its sister nations, will be
the primary subject and theme Of this ex-
hibition and commemoration which is to
occur on the fourth Of July. 1876. There
has not been a dissenting voice through
out this nation as to the propriety of such
a commemoration. There is an express
sion of hearty unanimity that it should
be done. and that, too. in the place in
which occurred the founding of our re.
public. All agree that the great and de-
cisive event that brought the republic
into existence ought to be celebrated by
ceremonies no less comprehensive and
fitting than those which are now contem-
plated by those commissioners who have
the matter in charge. 1t is conceded that
the people of the United States can do no
more fitting thing than to come together
at the very spot where liberty and indepen-
dence were enunciated. surrounded by the
evidences Of the great achievements in
arts and science that have distinguished
the first hundred years of the republic.
1t will be time when all sections of this
Union can come together without q |
thought or feeling Of bitterness by any
citizen toward another. and unite in |
hearty rejoicing and congratulation over
an event SO memorable as this will be.
1t is certain that the citizens of this !
great republic ought thus to meet from
every section. remote and near, and while
assurances Of fraternai az
fiction for each other. and devotion to
the country. unite in thanksgivings to
God, who controls the destinies of nations,
for His care and watchfulness over its
people. and their destiny as nation.
Such intercourse would do much TO efface
and put away from the remembrance of
whatever has been unpleasant in the past
Intercourse between the States and the
people. thereby begetting a stronger conf.
ience at home and abroad in the peaceful
endurance Ut our free institutions.
That such may be the result Of our CEN
'ennial is the hope and earnest desire of
III who love and cherish this Gland of the
rec and the home of the brave"
