up to 1860, and did not mend matters sub
sequent]y. Attempts were made then as
now to hide and cover up the worst trans
actions; but these efforts being exposed,
only made people believe we were worse
than we really were. And so it will prove
now. A well planned and widely prac-
ticed system of intimidating colored voters
for the purpose Of cheating them of the
rights conferred by the amendments to the
constitution has been in practice here for
years. Everybody here knows it is SO, and
yet congressional committee finds it
difficult to get the victims to testify to
facts within their knowledge. Or, if one
does come forward and make statement
evidence is at once introduced to show
that the persecution was in consequence
Of an old quarrel or the result Of mis-
taken identity, as, for instance, the assas-
sin thought he was shooting "anot her
Niger" whom he had heard robbed his
hen roost. These things occur, and have
been charged to the account of the people
of this State. They are now strenuously
denied, and the chances are ten to one
that they will be proved and much more

posed great embarrassments upon the
voters Of the Republican party. If the
Legislature. does not do this, they may be
subject to one of two imputations-
l. That they will have yielded to IN
worthy influences in leaving to their oppo-
nents official perouisites which have fur
nished the sinews of war against the Re
publican party.
2 That for chance of participation in
this executive patronage they will leave
the rank and file Of colored voters subject
to the violence of their Democratic oppo-
nents. We are satisfied that neither of
these imputations are just, and believe
that the Legislature will at once satisfy
the really conservative and business ele-
mentof the State with proof that it is
determined to give them, what their own
Democratic politicians have not done, a
simple and economical administration.
But do our antagonists desire to see the
Republican proposals of the Governor
carried out? Do they really wish to see
patronage diminished, and official per-
quisites cut down to the wages of honest
and intelligent service. If so, what does
it matter by whom this reform shall be
effected? We have seen no proposal on
the part of any executive claimant to lay
down the powers which Governor Kellogg
offers to abdicate.
In the emeute Of the fourteenth of Sep
TENDER, when Mr. Penn held temporary
power until the coronation of Mr.. Nc
Emery, We saw no proclamation of pur-
pose to shear away the civil, military or
municipal Offices which the State consti-
tuition empowers the Governor to bestow.
Let us hear from those who claim the |
State government, what they would do |
in these premises if they had the power,
or what they wish done now. If these |
measures of reform be satisfactory to them
it would furnish at least one term of DO
litical adjustment; if they do not approve
the proposals of Governor Kellogg it will
remains for conservative people to deter
mine whether they would e1pel by vio-
lence an administration which tenders
them substantial reforms on the spot, and
install one whose intentions on the sub
ect are limited to vague denunciations of
he State officers for alleged spoliation,
while they hold the patronage and per-
luisites Of the city in their own hands,
which offer facilities of political adj
'antage four fold greater than that of the
State.
Let the executive and Legislature give
is the laws abating patronage and cutting
|own official profits, and let US see a,ho will
esist such laws, on the ground that they
re not constitutional?

Sheriff Pope and Judge Chase a. thei,
hotel in franklin. The cowardly act was
perpetrated by seven or eight white men,
and as there were no strangers in the
town at that time, the assassins must have
been citizens. No clue to the murdererf
was ever obtained, Md the wall of the be-
reaved widows died away in an echo. Does
the Picayane demand these corpses before
1t will accept the full enormity of the
murder of these two worthy gentlemen
who were ex-oficers in the Union army:
Assassination has been one of the instru-
ments employed by the white Democrats
OF Louisiana to insure political success.
That it has failed is owing more to its de-
feet as an agent than to any want of vigor
in its application.
Senator Thurman says: ut is bad
thing to assassinate man." We are glad
to hear this sentiment from the Senator.
If he could instil it into his Democratic
friends in Louisiana it would be the saw.
ing Of many human life. Unfortunately,
however, assassination has been looked
upon and enjoyed as good thing by
great many of ''this people,
Some two years ago the Governor of the
State was fired at from behind in open
day, in front of Morgan's railroad Office,
IN the presence Of probably hundred
lookers-on. A person was arrested and
tried for the ofense, who proved satisfac-
torily that he had been mistaken for the
real offender: Many witnesses swore posi-
lively as to the mistake, but not one could
be found to expose the true cu)prit, though
many confessed their ability to do so. The
attempted assassination was treated bv the
Democratic press as a joke-quite good
thing. 1t was not condemned as a cow
ardly crime, but was countenanced and
applauded in secret, and sometimes even
openly.
When the Democrats of Colfax in cold |
blood murdered their prisoners and were
brought to trial for it, Senator Thurman's
friends treated them as martyrs, poured
out money to buy them Injuries during
heir confinement, gave dramatic enter
ailments for their benefit, justified and
commended their horrible deeds. They
ent their political bishop with memo
ial, signed by hundreds of other old
aides and of White Leaguers, begging
Judge Woods to reverse his decision re-
using to admit the prisoners to bail, and
hey abused that upright and able magis-
rate for not acceding to their unprece-
ented demand. They evidently didn't
hink it a bad thing to assassinate prison.
rs.
And how about Coushatta and more re-
snt assassinations, Fabius Dunn and
le two United States soldiers, and the
70 negroes killed on White street, and
le negro boy shot on Dauphine street,
I'D the other little amusing homicides
stween Christmas and New Years day?
re they stigmatized as bad things? Does I
