the people of Louisiana to-day. for
eight years they have been plundered
of their substance and are now on the
verge of bankruptcy and on the brink
If ruin. Even the Radicals themselves
viTtually admit that their robbery has
ruined the State. A few years since
they discovered that the people could
no longer bear the debt which their
miseoyernment had rolled up. Hence
thew passed the Funding Act, by |
which one-third of the State debt was |
ren,,diated and the credit of the State !
destroyed.
