The Democratic advocate. [volume] (Westminster, Md.) 1865-1972, 1875-01-02

The New York Tribune says No impar.
tial person can read the political history Of
Louisiana for the past two years without being
convinced that the win Of the people has been
eersistently defeated BY corrupt ring Of
Federal Office holders, supported BY the Adj
manifestation At Washington. The peaceful
rerelntioa OF September, by which the KEEL.
loEB sssrpat,on vas driven out, and only re-
stored BY the Interference Of the Federal
Government, went far to show that the State
Government represented only minority, and
was in fact u usurpation. But If there had
tcezi any doubt on that point, the election Of
November furnished conclusive proof Of the
fact that majority Of the people of the State
vas opposed 10 the corrupt kellogg Govern
ment, and 10 the rsscaly Ring that. with the
aid Of The Federal Army and NAVY. had 40
long held the State By the throat. No reason
