The winter 30 far has not been unlike those
usually experienced in the extreme States of
NewEngland. Since the holidays there has been
a more general and decided movement on the
part Of social leaders to inftise into society"
something of the spirit Of past seasons; they
hsve been only partially successful. Two
things stand in the way of brilliant season.
One is the-scarcity of visitors; aud the other.
the economic disposition of those who con-
trOI the iuuus. But the business depression
has brought sweet revenge to many OF the
old-timc first families, "-sristocratic leaders,
who were elbowed aside by heads Of poor fam
lilies. who grew rich suddenly as favorite con-
tractors under the Board of Public works, and
who for the past four or five years before this
winter. considered themselves rs 'bosses." so
to speak. of society, compelling the first tam
lilies IN fall down and worship them in their
grandeur. But they were always hated usur-
pers and their forced retirement, after their
brief reign, IS taken advantage of TO kick, cuff
and humilIate them by every possible device.

Mr.. Redfield returns to the subject Of

Mr.. Redfield returns to the subject OF
Louisiana long enough to give clean
statememt.of his opinion IS to the general
result OF the election there. He saves in
his last letter TO The Cincinnati CONNER
cial: The result OF my Investigation was
that Louisiana is Republican State by
from 10000 to $1,000 when the election is
perfectly free, full, and fsir-that Is. on
National issues. But on State issues, al
though Republican. the majority |. small,
and might be overcome by perfectly fair
means. For instance. there are a great
many colored men OF intelligence and pro-
pertv in Louisiana, and it Is no uneOm-
mon thing for them to vote with the whites
on local State issues. But whenit comes
to the Presidency. Hayes aud Tilden for
instance, | am as well satisfied that tree,
fair election would give the State to Hayes
as am that Pennsylvania is for Hayes.
Yes, in proportion to voting population,
Louisiana is more OF a Republican State
than Pennsylvania. ] am convinced that
Hayes Is the man who Is elected. | be-
lieve he would have carried Louisiana as
certainly a. he carried Vermont il the cleo
tion-and the conduct of the voters pre-
vious to the election-had been as tair in
the former State as In the latter. ME
five 'buldozed' parishes were carried by
murder, whippings, intimidation, and a
reign of terror. There were during the
campaign in those parishes fully 40 Re
pablicans murdered. They were killed to
intimidate the rest and carry the election.
These parishes are mainly near the Missis-
sippi line. and the Mississippi plan was
carried into elect. Marx this. in every
parish where there wereno murder and
intimidation of blacks the Republicans
made gains-gsins that would have car
ried the State in triumph for Hayes had
the same per cent held good in the five
bulldozed parishes. But behold, in these
five parishes where there was reign OF
terror the Democrats made net gain OF
about 1900. That Is. they turned the us
ual 500 Republican majority into a Dem
ocratic. majority OF about the same amount.
This is what gave the State TO T.lden, on
the face of the Seturns' Please keep that
in mind when refecting about the Louis
lana case. snd il will h,R you to see
