ing Board in that state as they have
with the Spanish ascendancy inCuba.
That Board is the spawn of the Federal
administration. without the protec-
ton of the Federal Government it
would have been swept out OF exis>
tence years ago. The Board is crea-
ture Of fraud and it IS maintained for
purposes of fraud. If the people of
Louisiana had been left to deal with it,.
and with its members, neither would
have troubled anybody. Grant proc

the fraudulent government il create d..
He came toits assistance in 1914, when
it repeated this infamy, and in def

1876, the same fraudulent Job was eX-
pected of the very same men, and
they had the bad courage to defy an
outraged people at Washington, and
were protected in doing so by Federal
baysnets. What does the conserva

Returning Boards? What do ma
