DUB LOCAL TICKET.

The Republican committee completed
the municipal ticket yesterday by placing
DR.. G. B. White at its head. The NOM
ination can not fail to be acceptable to
Republicans, while it is reasonable to be-
lieve the nominee will draw large support
from the mass Of non-partisan voters.
For many years Dr.. White was the
president of our Board of Health, and q
most faithful, attentive and skillful officer.
As scientific sanitarian, he has Q world
wide reputation, and it may occur to the

sverige thoughtful voter that there is ss
much merit in . chief magistrate Who
will devote his talents to keeping the city
healthy, ~ in protecting the style Of her
securities.
These are vital questions which must
enter into our municipal management
hereafter, which have been ignored by
the last two Democratic administrations.
They were outlined in brief in the plat
form adopted BY the Republican Parish
Convention some days ago. Protection of
life and property are more important than
premium bonds. A Communication of few
hundred thousand dollars, paid annually
in salaries to political dme-servers, into
improved methods of drainage, new re-
servoirs and water mains, for instance, will
make Us better and happier people;
and had this policy been inaugurated
few years ago, millions of dollars
of property, and hundreds of lives
would have been saved to the city. The
highest sanitary idea of the ordinary
run of city Administrators has been to
detail squads of men to scrape the de-
caying vegetable matter, muck and sand
from tho cutters and pile the offensive
refuse in the street, where hot sun can
cook and bake it, and throw its poisonous
exhalations upon the Atmosphere sys-
tenn the health department hes made its
feeble protest against annually for sixty
years. Keeping the city healthy BY flush
ing the cutters, as is done in every other
city, has never been resorted to, save on
occasions where the one miserable little
public reservoir has failed to furnish
water for public use, and the people, with
empty cisterns, have had recourse to the
cutters for water for washing and cook
ing.
Our public water service is adapted to
. city Of thirty thousand people. Here it
is stretched to cover the needs Of two
hundred thousand. Our draining ma
chimes are alike expensive and unreliable.
Nine-tenths Of our incorporated area is
dense swamp, inhabited only by conger
cells and alligators, while a few years of
economy and saved salaries
might render thousands of acres available,
by ditching and draining. for agricultural
and manufacturing purposes.
But it is needless to 60 into details. A
system of reform may not be
adopted by the voters at this election. If
it should be, particulars may be enlarged
upon hereafter. Carondelet street, which
looks on with perfect indifference while
Mr.. Eads is narrowing and shoaling our
outlet to the ses, rushed hesdlong into
he Democratic convention with q pre-
MUM bond ticket Perhaps it may be
elected. But the record of good inten-
ions for the public service is with Us, and
n time it viii be recognized
While We candidly admit the prospect
g not favorable TO the election of Re-
publican municipal ticket our cause is
ar from hopeless. Our ticket is made of |
he best material Our candidates are
he ablest and purest of the canvass, and
t will be the loss Of the public and not of |
he nominees if they are rejected at the
DOLLS.

WHO WILL BE HELD RESPONSIBILITY

WHO WILL BE HELD RESPONSIBILITY
The Democratic papers TEEN with the
most virulent Islander of the Republicans
They created such q popular hostility to-
ward Republicans that they are not &C.
corded recognition in politics nor bust
ness. The persistent attempt of the
Democratic press to commend themselves
to their partisan leaders has been commu-
nicated to the parish Democratic press
and speakers. It has been by them so
inoculated upon the bulldozers of the in.
terror that the intolerance can never be
extirpated.
It is thus that while the Democratic
Central Committee and the press publish
Quaker proclamations for Northern read
ing, the men of blood in the parishes con-
tinue their murder and intimidation of
Republicans. We find the Picayune head
lining with small caps "a Radical Plot in
Louisiana. It alleges ten thousand citi-
zens are to be arrested on false charges, etc.
The narrative by which these terrible asser-
tons is supported, fails utterly to adduce
one single proof that any such ''infamous
or diabolical scheme" has been attempted.
It alleges that means have been taken to
ascertain whether certain persons, claim
ing to be resident at particular places, did
actually reside there. Can there be any
thing diaboical in preventing a name
which has no residence, and possibly no
existence, from being recorded as voter?
The insinuation that the State Registrar
has SO directed correspondence as to
affect the election, has no bearing on the
indictment in the heading.
The scurrilous and unsupported de-
nunciation Of Republicans which is thus
placarded goes to the exasperated Demo-
cratic masses, and it may so inflame them
as to result in violence at or after the
election, and the State may be involved
in consequences which no one at all inter-
ested in its future welfare can contem-
plate without dismay. Should these con-
sequences occur the world will inquire,
"Who are responsible?" We can conscien-
dously say the Republicans are not. The
press and speakers of the Republican
party have been decorous and respectful
to their opponents.
The Democracy has refused to recog-
nize Republicans in debate. The Repub-
lican orators have been everywhere orderly
and patient under invective and violence.
The Democratic orators and followers
have in many parts Of the State inflicted
shame, wounds and even death upon the
humble and helpless, while they have ostra-
cized every white man who has manifested
even sympathy for the Republican cause.
The Republicans have made every effort
to introduce Northern capital and num-
bers into the State and city. The Democ-
racy has repealed both by intolerance and
intimidation. Submit, then, the question
of responsibility to an impartial world,
and there can be no doubt that tho DEM
ocratic organs and orators will be held to
answer for any possible consequences of
an irregular or unlawful election.
