of Tilden democrats, those Southern States will
give msjorites for Hayes. The systematic and
prearranged boastings from the Tilden headqusr-
tiers in New York are only desperate expedlents
to avert inevitable defeat. The republi-

full duty, and every go early to the polls,

ANOTHER BREEZE THREATENED

ANUTHER BREEZE THREATENED.
The Bulletin complains because the
police either can not or will not put stop
to bunko. intimates that the people have
good reason to suspect the integrity O,
efficiency Of the department, and calls
upon them to show more vigilance and
ability or resign. A vigilance committee
is threatened in case no relief can be OBJ
tanned by any other means.
While we are not prepared to deny that
the bunko men and other sharpers have
generally been too sharp for our municipal
guardians, and also that numerous in
stances Of omission to perform duty, as
well as Of cases where offenses have been
committed by individual members of the
force, We do not think the Bulletins pro-
prosed remedy is the proper one to apply.
A vigilance committee generally starts
out by correcting two or three wrongs,
and ends with committing others
Of greater magnitude. Neither have
We any surplus sympathy to waste
upon those foolish people whose
love of gain leads them to snap at
tempting bats, like gudgeons, and get
caught. The law necessarily presumes
that men carry about with them little
common sense, and can not always protect
the simple from bad bargains. Were
those people who daily boast that they
''never read the papers" to spend nickel
or so day for one, OF borrow one from a
friend. and read it, they would learn in
time to avoid suspicious places, and to
not permit strangers to make too free
with them on short acquaintance. Or, if
the police were instructed to capture
everybody caught in the act of gambling,
as well those on the outside as in, s.foreign
gentlemen" and well inclined strangers
would not be SO likely as now to stray
into dens of vice, where the "deadfall" is
ever set for the unwary.
We desire to see the police do its duty,
and avoid any necessity or excuse for a
vigilance committee. For while we do
not believe an experiment of the kind
would prove successful, yet it might, and
in that case it would inevitably turn out
to be political concern, and go to the
greatest lengths in regulating matters
generally. The first duty of the police de
partment is to set about to purge the force
of all worthless and unworthy members.
The next is to prepare for defense in case
the determ ination to attack it is perse-
vered in.

THE SPEECH OF HON. MR.. GIBSON

We must really ask pardon of Mr..
Gibson for having publishedl his speech.
The fact may be quoted against his
denomination, but as the minority" has
rights of which the 'cruel majority can
not deprive them, we claim a right as the
constituents of Mr.. Gibson, to express
our opinion of his services. It may be
pleaded by his friends in convention
that We shave had no intention to re-
elect him" or any other gentleman of his
political opinion.
We have used his speech to show the
exceptional attention to the material in
terests Of those whom he represents. We
point to this speech, and the resolutions
in favor Of reciprocal trade, introduced
by the same member, as the only efforts
made by our Democratic Representatives
to promote the material interest of Louis
lana. Republican members have labored
for years past for appropriations to con-
struct canals and jetties, and to protect
our planters by levees. Our Democratic
members pass into the caucus to scheme
for the political spoils, and disappear
from local representation altogether.
We are not sure that we agree in all the
propositions enounced and argued by Mr..
Gibson. We do not think the principle
of reciprocity should be abandoned even
by implication. 1t is to our mind obyi-
GUS that Louisiana could maintain the
competition of foreign sugars, nor are we
clear that the commercial and agricultural
interests involved in enlarged commerce
are not Of moro consequence than the
special interest to b protected. Still.
Mr.. Gibson has made the best argument
agkinst expanded sugar culture that he
could, and has 90 far proved himself ct
least ssalous and able representative of
ths sugar planters and Aboesu Who be-

whom have yet signed his msmorial q We
can learn at the time Of writing-should
thus suddenly break out in startling ap-
peal to the Secretary Of War to order q
dredgeboat to leave its work and boost a
job which threatens to be done before the
boat can get out of one pass into another.
Perhaps MI. Highly has made mistake
which Mr.. Eads will hasten to correct by
asking the War Department to let him
alone and not interfere with his enter
prise, which, he informed him few days
ago, will be all right before the adjourn
ment of Congress. If Captain Howell
NEEDLES in the matter it may endanger
the appropriation or delay it, which
would be great misfortune to the ietty
company.
New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1876-04-18
THE DREDGEBOATS TO THE REsCU]

Mr.. Highly, backed by ''our merchants,
has issued rescript to the Secretary Of
War, asking him to order Captain Howell
to rush with his dredgeboats to the rescue
of Mr.. Eads. This is "a ther a startling
proposition, and it suggests either one Of
two alternatives: That the jetties are on
the eve of complete success, requiring only
the scratching up OF few feet of mud fol
the matter of couple Of miles or so at
the head Of the work and the same on the
bar, where the water is reported to be
sh GAL for only one half mile, or it sug-
gests that art has at last progressed so far
in South Pass as nature did long ago in
Southwest Pass, and the natural regimen
between the conflicting powers of the
gulf and river established. We are not
permitted to doubt that this call for help
has been made with the approval of Mr..
Eads himself, as he has intimated that
little timely scratching would assist the
securing out process and have whole
some effect.
We are likewise no less astonished
than delighted to learn there is such an
enormous amount of tonnage awaiting
shipment here, and regret that it can not
move off on less than twenty feet of water.
As no vessel has stuck on Southwest
Pass bar since Captain Howell ordered
the McAlester around there, and as the
bulk of our cotton has been shipped
somehow, and the corn by the lateral rail-
road lines, we supposed that ''our mer-
chants" were taking things in their accus-
toned easy manner. Mr.. Highly has
rudely awoke US from a pleasant dream,
and set us to looking about for that
''large amount Of tonnage" which he as
sures US is in this port and requires more
water to load out. We find there are
three large steamers in port, but as they
crossed the bar easily enough coming in,
presumed they could get out as we'll.
Besides, there are several steamers under
one thousand tons, and numerous ships
and schooners of the draft of vessels,
which have run out and in here success
fully for fifty years or more. There may
be large amount Of tonnage. but We see
very little large tonnage.
And rs Mr.. Higby's memorial assures
the Secretary of War that '.navigable
depth of twenty feet to the sea will soon
be obtained through South Pass" we
should deem it very unwise to impair such
a splendid undertaking by any slight, ex-
traneous aid. Perhaps Congress will
insist that Captain Howell is entitled to the
credit ct the job if he sends his dredge-
boat to the work or any part Of it. Be-
sides, there is but one dredgeboat in use.
The Essayons is on the dock, with small
hopes Of being ready for service before the l
promised depth Of twenty feet shan be
obtained BY tho securing process.
The whole thing il perplexing mys
teey to q. We can mot ses Why Nj.

foreign sugars.
We presume he has in his pocket . dis
pensation from the State rights Democracy
to advocate the highest possible tariff for
the special protection Of an article of uni
versal use. Louisiana supplies to the con-
sumers in the United States about one
pound of sugar in every fifteen that they
consume. Provided Mr.. Gibson will be a
good boy, and vote the Democratic ticket
without scratching, he will receive the in
diligence adverted to. He will be per-
mitted to impose an indirect tax, equal
to two cents pound, on all the
citizens of the United States for the
benefit of twelve or fifteen hundred sugar
planters. We do not object. 1t was the
doctrine of Washington, Webster and
Clay that when it became important to
build up the production of a national
necessity, it was lawful to bestow the
bounty of domestic protection upon that
special interest. The United States now
pays out one hundred and seventy-five
million dollars Of specie for sugar, coffee
and other tropical products. 1t would be
OF course judicious to submit for some
years to an additional cost, if those pro-
ducts could, by treaty, secure the produc-
ton at home. This is the doctrine
Horace Greeley taught, and which MIR.
Gibson advocates. It is not the doctrine
Of Calhoun, of Hunter or Of Mason.
We. therefore, oppose the argument Of
Mr.. Gibson upon the single point referred
to. 1t may be further objection to him
that in trying to do something for his
constituents he is inadvertently co-operat-
ing with the Republican Representatives,
but we admit the merit of his course only
to make the legislative incapacity or in
difference of his Democratic colleagues the
m ore conspicuous. In doing this, however
We mean to throw no imputation Of per-
sonal incompetency upon those gentlemen.
Their school Of government relies upon
abstract theory and political combinations
to effect the welfare of their constituents
It is perhaps their opinion that if they
could elect Democratic President, the
direct and immediate prosperity of
Louisiana would follow with the
appointment Of Democrats to all offices.
With this theory those gentlemen do
not, OF course, attribute any value to
the aid of industry, or the establishment
of the same commercial facilities here as
elsewhere. If they attach no consequence
to schools, ships. workshops, railroads or
additional wealth and numbers, Why
should they trouble themselves with any,
thing more than partisan labors to attain
the political result? These gentlemen
could, no doubt, do their part if they
thought it necessary, but, not deeming
or intellectual improvement an
important element of constituent liberty |
Or property, why should they waste their
lime compiling the statistics of sugar
produced or imported, or why cucumber
he Congressional Record with the text of |
frivolous treaties with Othaheite? Hoping
Mr.. Gibson may clear himself successfully
# the imputation that he has been COM
'limented by the REPUBLICAN for the
abor and ability devoved to the interest

titutency which he represents, we:
bandon him to his fate.
