That the Republicans haze meant

doubt. But no one has dreamed that
they would attempt the infamous

The Radical campaign, according
to the New Orleans Democrat, will be
confined to the doubtful parishes. On
these, the Radical party will coucen.
trate all their money, promises and
Offices all the rascally schemes their
ingenious brains can conceive. The
doubtful parishes are, St. Tammany,
St. Helena, Morehouse, East and
West Feliciana, Washington, DeSoto,
Bossier, Caddo, Assumption Avoyelles
East Baton Rouge, Caldwell Gaia.
houla, Franklin, Grant, Iberia, Jack
son, Lafourche, Lincoln, Natchito.
ches, Rapides, Richland, St. Martin,
Terbonne and Webster, 26 parishes
that send A members to the Legisla
ture.
If they find those too Zig a job they
will give up such as Lincoln, Cald.
we'll, Washington, Baton Rouge and
Rapides, aud concentrate on the re-
mainder.
The Democrat says:
The coming election will hardly he
close one, yet few people know how
terrible close every election ia. The
Mobile Register Mortified. the people
Of Alabama on the eve Of the last
election by showing that o change of
4 tweBty-tlsroe votcs 10 the whole STATE
from the election Of 1874, when the
Democrats had over 1900 majority,
, might lose them the Legislature
House and Senate. 1t is not quite 81
bad here. Yet the change of 26l
votes in certain parishes from tn,
vote of 1874 correct county would
change sixteen Radicals loss o
, thirty two members Of the Legisla
! ture. On the other hand, o chang
of 81 votes in our favor would Civ
as eleven teats formerly held by Rad
icals. These 344 votes therefore com
mand twenty seven seats, more thai
1 one. fifth Of the Legislature, and out
balance the votes of 20. 900 citizens !,
" other parishes. In 1877 it was til
t came story, . change Of 600 vote
