We print elsewhere statement mado BY q
cofored Republican Of East Feliciana Parish,
Louisiaua, to tho correspondent Of tho Chi.
cago journal, setting forth the manner ia
which he was tortured BY Democrats on ac-
count Of his political principles. We COM
mend this statement to our readers as ono
instance out OF hundreds showing the man.
ner In which tho Tildenites havo sought to
carry that State. This victim of Democratic
brutality was born aud raised in Louisiana,
and rented q little piece Of land upon which
he ran saw-mill. On the Saturday night
before tho election ho WINS called away from
his house ossonsib1y on business, but sudden
ly found himself in the midst OF mob OF
Democrats armed with sticks and pistols.
They hurried him off into tho timber,
stripped him mixed, and tied him to a
boech treo. Then they cut beech
limbs and five or six Of them lashed him
until he was insensible aud they wero
exhausted Whom he was restored to con-
sciouaness, they informed him That If he ever
spoke Of the bulldozing they would kill him.
The correspondent says: GLOVER, by re-
quest, took of his shirt. His body, from
hia neck to his knees, presented sight that
was more eloquent than words. His back,
and sidos, and thighs were cut and torn, and
white scara on the b1ack flesh crossing each
other here and there proved with what zeal
the advocates of T1LDEN and Reform in
Louisiana sought to carry that State" The
oFenso Of this poor victim Of Democrntio
barbarity is best told In his own words: II
tole some Of dc men dat whipped mo day
or two bofo dat wouldn't jine do Demo-
cratic club or vote do Democratic ticket;
