The Pulaski citizen. [volume] (Pulaski, Tenn.) 1866-current, 1876-11-30

H. V. Redfel1 is the Republican
correspondent in New Orleans of the
Republican Cincinnati Commercial.
His speciality among Radical cor
respondents is a notable one-he
doesn't lie. This is what he says
about the parishes in Louisiana,
which it is proposed to count out;
Investigation convinces me that
the large Democratic gains in the
five disputed parishes were not all
by reason of intimidation. I had a
conversation with Captain Bascom,
of the regular army stationed all
the year in West Feliciana, and in
command there. He says the cleo
tion in that parish was as free and
fair as any ever witnessed. He
says if that parish can be thrown
out, any county in the United States
can. The Democrats carried it by
500 majority. BY joining black
clubs, by argument and appeal, he
says, the whites won the blacks by
kindness. and persuasion and not
by force. Captain Bascom is an
Ohio man.
On this telegram the Commercial
remarks editorially as follows:
Republican confidence in the re-
turn from Louisiana has not dImin-
ished, but we do not want the State
if there is not a fair show for it.
That which our correspondent Red
field says of the report made to
him by an army officer, Coptain
Bascom, of Ohio, has a tendency to
shake confidence in the establish
ment of the case that would, under
the law, demand the throwing out
of. the disputed parishes. Phe Re
publican party can far better af-
ford to lose the election than to car
~ it in that way; and the Demo
cratic party defeated by a swindle
would, if it did not precipitate vio-
lence, receive a quit claim deed for
the country, the property delivera-
bic at the end of four years.

will permit the man who was made
governor by such means to count
in, by the same method, a president

If the Supreme Court of South
Carolina seats the Democratic men,
bers of the Legislature, it remains
to be seen whether Judge Bond, of
the United States Court, will follow
the example of the drunken Durell,
at New Orleans, and use his author
ity to defeat the will of the people
by securing the United States troops
to dispense the Legislature and sus-
tain Chamberlain in his seizure of
the State government There is
every indication that such will be
the course of the conspirators. The

not come between the savage

MODEL REFoRMERS
The Sort of Men that Assisted Johnny
Davenport to Protect the Elective
Franchise.
From NE Nem York World.


In dealing with the perversion of the
secret service fund to partisan purposes,
we have kept vigorously to the considera-
ton Of the guilt of the president in trans
crossing the law to get at money to pay
for work illegally done. The pretepse of
Davenport that his labor was necessary
and was honestly performed is worth some
words. The popular memory is not re-
tentive, but few facts will recall the
nature of the outrage on popular cleo
tons committed at the public cost by this
agent of fraud and organizer of terrorism.
The excuse for interference in the cleo
tons in this city was that it cast a vote
out Of proportion to its population. When
called upon to furnish soldiers during the
war, its inhabitants were set down at over
n million, but when peace came. in order
to lessen the influence of New Yo.k,
every effort was made to degrade it into q
second class city. The cry of excessive
registration and fraudulent voting was
kept up continually. A comparison with
Philadelphia, which was then upheld, as
a model of Republican purity-thouph
since proven to be no purer than other
Republican models-will show how baseless
the ISLANDERS against New York we're. BY
thN NSuouo vi WV A'CW IN Hah u pOpu-
lation of 942, 292, Philadelphia population
OF 674,022. In New York there were 249,
800 males of voting age, ut Philadelphia
there were only 1856. At that era,
however, Philadelphia egistered more
voters than New York. On the city ticket
of 1870 Philadelphia cast 96,437 votes, to
New York's l6,lS3, and on the state
ticket Of 1872 Philadelphia cast, 1879,
votes, while New York cast only 1874 ,4O5.
The comparison exhibits with great clear
ness the fact that the metropolis was not
the place il which the public money should
have been expended in the prevention of
election frauds.
=. SO much for the pretense that New
York was den Of political iniquity re
quirinR all the watchfulnoss of the federal
government.
Now let US see how Davenport went
to work to prevent intimidation ut cleo
lions and promote purity. On becoming

are epingg4O marry whom, and can
guea6 theanxact time by every move
of parties suspected of matrimonial
intentions, and if there is the slightest
chance to create a disturbance, excite

take advantage of it, and do all in their
power to keep people in state of con-
stant turmoil. They glide quietly from
gentleman to lady, from mother to
daughter and from father to son, and
in the ears Of all they pour their bitter
whispers Of slanler and abuse, and at
tlle same time pretend to be tile most
sincere friends of those they talk to.
Their nAuseOus pills of slander are
sugar-c0ated with smiles and words Of
friendship. These people we find
among the rich and the poor; the ''up-
per ten land the slower milli0n;" in
the church and out of it. They seem
to have nothing else to do, and have no
higher ambition than to be well in
formed in regard to other peoples pri-

HON. NJ H. DUNNELL.
It will he seen by the report of the
County, Convention, published else
where, that the delegates from this
county were instructed to cast the vote
Of the county for Hon. NJ. H. sDunnell.
However inharmonious the Convention
may have been upon other points, there
was very general agreement upon this:
Mr.. Donnell has (if any one has led)
been the leading member from our
State, and he has developed, il seems,
m especial aptitude for attending to
the wants of his frontier, prairie con-
stituency. He has, moreover, a re-
markable knack Of getting measures
through for the relief or the advance
ment Of the people whom he represents.
Mr.. Dunnell is not as pronounced upon
some of the greater moral issues rs we
could like, but lie is a high-minded,
honorable Christian gentleman with. a
private character above reproach and a
political record which his political op-
ponents have tried in vain to tarnish.
Among other names which have been
suggested for the nomination are those
of Gen. Baker, of Mankato; Judge
Page, of Austin, and W. r. Kenyon,
of Owatonna. But neither of these
gentlemen, 81 far, have developed much
strength, and the probability is that
Mr.. Dunnell will he re-nominated by
acclamatiOn.
