Refor,u-What flinders 1t!

For ten wears or more Louisiana

Even Republicans can tell the truth
on their OWE party sometimes, and
W. Jasper Blackburn never told
more positive and palpable truth in
his life, lhan when he said in his
letter to the editor of the Donaldson
Vile Chief:
"The virtue and intelligence and
honest industry H Louisiana have
been ruirG and r"hhrd and socially
ami morally dcpravcd by a LrarrlrSs
combination of sharp ring-ma,trr,
just as long as they will Or can
endure it,"
But we think be makes grand
mistake when he attempts to shoulder
the Grant administration and third
termsm and carry it through the
campaign Of 1876, for it is not half so
POI tSsg with his own party as he
thinks it is. There is plenty of leSls-
lative work for Mr. Blackburn 10 do,
if he is honest in his professions oil
reform, without frittering away his
aud the Scnate'S time in advocating
the claims Of presidential candidate
which has no connection whatever
with his Legislative duties.
What need the Democrats to care
whether Grant. Morton or Blaine Is
the Republican nominee for President!
Our business is to let them Nominate
whom they may, and then place
good ticket in the field, with The
names of honest, capable men on 1t
on good sound platform, and thcr
labor for its success to WORK LOT INT
defeat of whatever ticket they adopt
Let Us adopt the motto Honesty
and Economy must triumph
