Moral of the Belknap Acquittal'

Moral of the Belknap Acquittal'
The acquittal Of Belknap startles
no one, for that was foregone con-
clusiou when We knew his trial was
to take place before q body Of his
peers.
The excuse set up by Senators, that
they questioned the jarisdict;os Of
the Senate, is certainly one of the
lamest apologies it has ever been our
misfortune to accept. The question
Of jurisdiction had been passed upon
by the Senate before the trial, and the
Senators were az mach bound By that
decision az they arc BY any statutory
act ,chick they may pass.
For instance, would it not seem the
hight of folly to have q minority Sem
ator" plead, in competent court If
he should DO there tried for some
| violation of tile laws Of the United
States that be did not vote for that
law, and Ia consequence it was in
operative a. far az he was concerned;
and questions Of jurisdi ction are as
binding upon Senators when decided
by a majority Of them, as laws passed
by them are upon citif Gems.
This pleading renders their vote
less excnsable and they are reduced
to the dire necessity to being EN-.
palel on the two horns Of dilemma,
which are, that they acquitted Bel
koap because Of the force of Messrs'
Carpenter and Blacks argument
that they could not vote guilty fol
tue reason that they were bribe.takera
a. we'll ~ Belkuap, that IL had he.
come custom and was therefore no,
: unlawful for public officials to accept
brides or else the acquittal came
!. from the fact that Belknap was
radical and that ,cas sufficient to cove
all sins. In either case the people o
the whole country will not aoquit til
Senate-that We can rest assured Of
Belknap's guilt is not questioned
D the evidence against him is over
t wl,elmiug, and were it not, his owl
candid admission of it was enough.

Comfort for the Colored'

.trhe co,o,ed voter will find comfort
and GOOD cheer in the emphatic de-
claratious Of our Baton Rouge plat
form. It is a standing, nna"s"era.
bic denial of the lying utterances OF
the Radical politicians who attempt
to drum into the ear Of the co'"red
citizen, the stale charges Of "ret"rn
to slavery, . and a "depriviog Of Con.
stitutional rights"-and what makes
these declarations 50 emphatic and
truthful, is the nomination Of Nichols
aud Wilt, to carry them ont.
This Is not political fight, but q
peop,e's battle; every ones rights
uuder the law will he properly res
pected and protected and that res
pcct and protection will come from
men who are as able as willing to
make such prolific Of good results
The colored man has been govern
ed for eight long years i" Louisiana
and we defy any one to point to a
GOOD result therefrom. The logic Of
events placed in their hands free''o"
and suffrage, upon which demas'soes
have played, alas, but too we'll FOL
our ruin and their good.
Poverty for him and his are thf
result Of ignorant, corrupt, and ,rres
ponsible experimentation which W
are willing to acquit the mass OF tn
colored voters-we do not charge h'n
: with criminal intent, but he mus
t now cease to lie led by these fellow
1 to commit by lis vote, such depreda
t tons upon the rights, liberty an

Violence.

The rural Radical press has drum
med "shot. guns and violence" into
the public ear for such a length OF
time, that many timid people through
ont the State credit some sire for 50
mnch smoke" and dish up advice;
theorize on effect, without a knowl'
edge Of cause, that is sickening to
behold.
We venture to say that no parish
in Louisiana has suffered from Radi'
cal rule such outrages as Natchlto'
ches has. Taxation has amounted to
con6scation, and riolence has been
freely used towards US. Still oil this
has not been sufficient to provoke a
lust yetributiow on the part Of the
people, for the reason that public
policy demanded that We should ''suf-
fer aud lie strong" The turning OF
the cheek" has been amply exemp'''
fed with 1s; but We can say with
truth, that our forbearance has not
caused our enemies to cease attempt
ing to rob us; to cease vi'lflcat'"n
and abuse, and to cry violence daily
If, in 1874, the Radical whelps here
: had been Justly dealt with, had been
punished as their crimes demanded
they should have been, our section
would have been free, at least, from
this daily bowling of "bnlldoozi"e
, and white league shot-suns."
I Murder and whence per sc, we con

To Our People.

With regard to choosing caou'ua'es
tor our Offices of Sheriff, Clerk and
Recorder, We simply call the atten-
ton Of all delegates to the Jefferson
inn tests Of an officer "1s he honest,
is he capable, is he faithful to the
Constitution"
We are to have an aggressive cam
paign; choose no man that We will
have to explain-either as to compe'
teucy or past conduct.
To all candidates make these three
suggestions: A nomination is not an
election; an election will not make
you rich, for tie Democrats intend to
greatly reduce all official salaries and
perqaisites. And an election will
not make You a great man. "P'g'
mes are pigmies on Alps"
The offices ofLegislators and Police
Jurors, are UNNECESSARILY the most tns'
poytnnt Offices to be filed by the
coming parish Convention.
All tie evils under which We now
suffer must be relieved by the lesis'
lative branch Of our Government. i"
do this mighty work, it requires our
best talent men Of sense and men Of
firm aud determined will.
We must have men in the Legis'a'
ture WHO have the genius to originate,
the wisdom to frame, and the integ'
ritz and nerve to carry into effect, in
spite of friends and foes, practical
and substantial measures Of relief
and reform. These men must be o'
those who will add strength to the tick:
ct, and who are true and tried men Of
the people. The splendid examples
Of the Convention at St. Louis and
Baton Rouge, must he the guide
must teach our Convention to lay
aside tho skinned milk office.seeker
the middle men, the fence.straddler
the turn. coats, the trimmers.
The nomination of such men woult
be the simple signal Of defeat; de
feat lasting aud inevitable. Let gu
people I've not deceived! Some mel
are patriots for policy, come are pa
D. triots for show, and but few are pa
triots from PRINCIPLE.
