Now this is what tho Tribune says
Of these "fellows,'' mark the name,
and no one wilt say that that language
is not strong. 1t is not as strong,
however, rs this: "No ono that
knows anything Of tho political his
tory Of Louisiana since its reconstruc'
ton can have any doubt as to what
course should I've taken with the whole
tribe Of conspirators who call them
selves tho Republican party Of that
State. They would not be tolerate"

They are bad through and through !;

character and in record sand an IN
mifigoted set Of political se"~ps an"
alrcniurers."
So wo sec that names for these fell
lows are freely banded by even the
New York Tribune. What more do
VIC want to convince us Of the truth OF
these bold &C cusations. than a simple
look at home I? Who are the men
that constitute the parish ticket OF
the party Of "unmitigated scamps
and political adventures Of this par
isl.
We have it before us, and il the
Tribune did but know them as We do'
ito language would be even stronger
than that which we have quoted.
Geo. l.. Smith, for instance, who,
with the assistance Of his friends,
robbed tho Frccdman's Bank OF
Shreveport Of thousands Of dollars.
Raforl Blunt, he took a thousand
dollar bribc for passing what is known
a. the 81. Louis Hotel State House
bill besides assisting Myers to roll
tho school treasury Of this parish Of
81, 600.
J. Ernest Brcda who stole three
hundred dollars from a poor darkey
and was indicted for it and stands
indicted to-day.
Eaby who voted for every stea
that War moth or Kellogg legislatures
have enacted.
Lewis, whose "private character
consists in deserving his legal wifi
and living in open coucubinagc will
a strumpet.
These are the "fellows' the nm
mitisated scamps and political ad
yenturers, Of which tho Tribune com
plains Mt a distance and against
whom We labor at home. Tho TIL
bxxe say: "they ro1la not be to'era'e'
for an instant IN amp Northern State
| Nor will they bc tolerated for an in
slant in Louisiana in future.
As Blackburn, the Republican Sen
ator Of the Homer. 1liad says: TIL
white intelligence and virtue In Lou
isiana have submitted to the insolenc
Of negro dcpravity and white rascal
ity for tho last time, or words to thu
effect F.; and nothing is truer. Whe'
were their speakers on the 10th ir
slant; did any Of them say wh'
these "scamps'' had done for L"ni'
lama! No; not one word dared the
utter. Does Breda and Blunt an
Raby and Lewis aud B0ullt tell Il
colored people what they have dor
for the good Of Natchitochcs ! The
cannot do it they dare not do it. Ii
: their preaching is abont tho war al
