Tho "Old Log Club" one of tho solidest
and most respectable of the Second Ward
Democratic organizations, has adopted res
olutions emphaticslly repudlatiDz Mr.. r.
H. Wilde, "Whst IL III" candidate for the
Legislature, and pledging support to Dr..
Roche. for coroner of the uptown District.
instead of Dr.. Chastant, of the regular
ticket. Yet the organs would try to eatah-
lish that harmony and sweet peace pervsde
the Democratic ranks. 7T0o ~'rE
Burglary is ono of the latest aids en-
ployed to assist the dear people to Tilden,
Nichols and reform
The Times saye:
Nine out of ten admit that the [Wtat is
IT. ticket 10 far moro acceptable than any
which has been presented in years.
II permits correspondent to say that
this community has been "robbed and
cheated for the last four years." AL Of
which must be . source of qualification to
Mr.. Wilts, Mr.. Pilsbury and Mr.. Brown, as
we'll as to the other able and efficient Dem.
ocrstic ofice-holders who have not been
lucky enough to get new nominations. It
shows conelusively that there exists q
broad opening for reform in this Democrat
10 stronghold, even if the Independent doc.
tors did manage to strangle q healthy
child in the ascouchment. -..
The parties under arrest for assisting to
make away with the Republican Campaign
Committed records of Democratic frauds
on the registry are regular employees of the
Democratic party managers. They arc
master reformers. -.
In his speech at the Saturday night mass
meeting Governor Warmoth mentioned the
fact, which the Democrats now would will
idgly ignore, that they were the frat to
eolicit Federal Intervention in our local
government affAirs. In conspiracy with dis
affected Republicans, and in the hope Of
seizipg control of the organization of the
House Of Representatives, some of tho
present leaders Of the Democratic party
caused the arrest Of the Governor of this
State and several members Of tho Legiela
ture, just ct the hour for the opening Of the
legislative session. It was . desperate
Democratic scheme to revolntionize the
State government by employing Federal
courts and marshsls, and one which will
justify Republicans in any exercise Of
similar powers to protect them in their
rights from the agsressions Of those who
originally invoked such aid.
Assault with brass knucklee, With intent
to commit murder, is . Democratic agency
for securing to the people Of New Orleans
full, free and fair election.
A conundrum for the Democratic organs:
IT in two years the Democratic majority in
Indiana il reduced three-fourths, and the
Republicans gain the Legislature, . large
number Of county officers and two-thirds of
the Congressmen, how long will it take for
the Democratic party to gain control Of tho
nation9
DR.. Roche pledged himsslf to stand by
the nominee of the "What it It," conven-
tion for coroner of the up town district.
He claims that hs i himself the regular
and that he will stick to the reg
ular candidate until he il elected.
Forcing private apartments, gsgging and
binding the occupant, and stealing tho evil
denoe Of Democratic corruption in registra-
ton, 10 the latest manifestation of reform
by that high-toned and truly respectable
party.
The only branch of tho national govern
ment wherein the Democrats hold sway is
the lower branch Of Congress. The recent
elections show that the people of the North
will NO longer trust them even with this.
In nero local matters they may mot be 90
strict, but mono who are not tried and true
in their loyalty will henceforth be put on
guard at the national capital.
The Democrats fear their contemplated
grand turnout ON Saturday evening next
will prove fzzle, and are already invent
ing excuses to do away with it. One pre-.
text is that the musicians charge too much;
another that the money the display must
cost could be better spent if turned into
that bottomless pit known a. the campaign
chest. IL not the trae reason the manifest
lukewarmness of the people, consequent
upon the recklessness. incendiarism and
fraud which characterize tho conduct of
tho campaign under present Democratic
auspicesa
Tho failure Of the Democratic hirelings
to steal the Southern charm sewing ma
chine circulars, together with the affidavits
which are based upon the knowledge OBJ
tanned through their agency, has put the
Republican Campaign Committee upon
their guard. These potential factors in the
"fair, free and full election" to which both
parties stand pledged. are put out of
harms way, and whore they will do the
most COED. Burglary, larceny, entering in
the night armed with . dangerous weapon,
assault with intent to kill-none Of these
will reach them now.
The Colfax Chronicle tells this very funny
Democratic story: When the proprietor OF
the Colfax hotel was asked permission for
Lieutenant Governor Antoine to have .
seat ct the table with the other Republican
canvassers, he replied: lyon may seat him,
but tho time will be brief until will have
my fingers entsngled in his hair" Noble
man! Good patriot! Give him high-toned
Office, General Nichells, when the oolored
