The Democratic Leaders anI the Aou'
isiaua Erou0les-Poiiey Of the Com
servatiyes.
CHICAGO, January 2d.-A Wash |
ington special says prominent Con-
servative now in Washington, who is |
known to have the confidence of the
Democrats in Louisiana, says the |
Democratic leaders are opposed to any |
revolutionary move for any purpose.
They all encourage the bluff game
against the Retiring Board i'll the hope |
of securing the return OF majority in
the House, but threats were made |
without any intention of executing
them. The Democratic leaders will
not encourage the revolution for two
reasons: First, because they believe
that a revolutionary movement would
prejudice them before the Congress
sonal com mittee second, because
such movement might result in the
establishment of a military govern
ment. They would have been willing
to accept majority of five for or
against them. They believe they can
control, by bribery and flattery, a suf-
ficient number of negro votes to give
them the preliminary organization of
the House. Under the circumstances
they will not attempt to install their
members by force but by attempting
to prevent the arrival of col
ored Republican members from
the parishes, and by other means,
will endeavor to arrange it so
that sufficient number ofcolored rep
resentatives from the country will be
absent when the House is organized,to to
secure the control of the organization
to the Democrats. They will refuse to
make appropriations for mileage, per
diem or expenses to the officers of the
Kellogg State Government, and will
thus seek to cripple it. They will also
attempt to control two-thirds of the
Senate and then impeach both Kel-
logg and Antoine. Failing to get the
necessary two-thirds in the Senate,
the Democrats, on the last day of the
session, will prefer articles of i'm
peachment simultaneously against
kellogg and Antoine and suspend
them from office. The Democratic
Speaker would then become Governor
until the Legislature could act on the
case. The session Of the Legislature,
by the Constitution, is limited to
sixty days. No extra session could
be called except by the acting Gov
ernor, who would be the Democratic
Speaker, and he, of course, would not
call one. Meantime the acting Gov
ernor would have the means to make
all the appointments which the Con-
stitution and laws give the Governor.
He would be able to disintegrate the
40 no rfu hxyf ofr;h
of numerous valuable offices.
