The Reason Way.

The reason why 1t Is impossible to punish
adequately violations against rights of
voters in the Southern States is well set
forth in Governor Kellogg's message TO the
Louisiana Legislature. 1t isn't that officials
are inefficient. The reason iE that their Of
forts to secure Justice meet the opposition
Of the guilty parties. Within this class
falls almost the entire body Of the Demo
cratic party. They are determined to create
disorder and commit violence until they
have gained control of the State. Then they
win stop. The condemnation these Demo
Gratis pass upon Republican officials is an &C.
cusation Of themselves. Governor Kellogg
SAYS with force that "there are but three
ways by which peace can be maintained
and the laws Of the State and Of the United
States can be enforced In Louisiana against
political offenses. First, the surrender OF
the State government TO the minority who
controlled its destiny before the emaneipa
ton of the slaves; second, the acceptance
BY that minority, In good faith, Of the con-
sfitution and amendments, which issues
were decided by the war; third, the enact
ment by Congress of such appropriate and
valid legislati0n as will secure endorsements
OF these amen ments against organized, IN
sidlous and desperate hostility" A hepub-
lean who proposes TO secure peace BY help

the minority must be given otheea N order
