tion as clearly and briefly as possible.

southern states, the preference will be
given to a Republican, all other things
being equal, but should it be impossible
to find Republican who will be satis-

pie whose business is directly affected

test, then I shall not hesitate to step

judgment will give satisfaction TO the
business interests of the community.
While l shall always be glad to receive
the advice of Senators and Representa-
tives in Congress touching matters of
this kind, yet shall not consider my
self as in any way bound to act upon
it. Ny desire is to do the greatest
good to tho greatest number and to this

" The End is Not Yet"

New Orleans, March 19.-Attorney
General Ogden has filed in the Fifth
District court petition for a writ of
ejectment against S. b. Packard, j. B.
johnson, superintendent of education,
and others residing in the Saint Louis
hotel building, known as the state
house. The petition sets forth that
these persons are unlawfully in possess
sion of said building, and in the name
of the state ask that the present occu-
pants be dispossessed therefrom and the
rightful claimants, officers of the Mich
oils government, be given possession.
The court has not been called on to
take action, but likely such action will
be invoked very soon.

authorities there were displaying much
activity in preparations for the contin-

ment of troops toward the Russian
frontier. The regulars numbered
$4,000, exclusive of 1900 stationed at
Batsun. The fortress of Kars was
strongly garrisoned. Araden was held
by 10000 troops. The Turkish forces
were concentrating to resist any Rus
sian advance on Erivan. The number
of Russian troops on the frontier was
estimated at 10000. Reinforcements

An Editor Who Wouldn't Be buu-Dozed.
San Francisco, March 19.-Last Fri
day evening, VIM. Hayes, a prominent
lawyer of this city, entered the room
of the managing editor of the Alta,
Gen. John McComb, and demanded a
retraction of an article publishedin the
Alta that morning, alluding in a hu-
morous way to Hayes connection with
the investigation Of the conduct of
police officer, threatening in case of re-
fusal to shoot him. McComb knocked
him down, chastised him severely, took
away his pistol, and took him to the
station-house, where the charge Of as
sault with deadly weapon was en-
tered against him. The affair seems
likely to prove more serious than at
first supposed. Hayes indicates his in
tention of following up his purpose of
killing McComb, and strong effort
will be made to procure the expulsion
of the former from the bar. The press
animadvert severely on Hayes action,
and seem disposed to make it a test
case.

and punish the offenders. They assign
as a reason for the outrages that a
number of men who had been employed

Murder Raging Rampant.

New Orleans, March 19.-Further in
vestigation shows that the murder of
D. A. Webber, Republican collector of
West Feliciana, was a heartless, cold
blooded assassination.
Jno. F. Moore, another victim, elect
ed recorder of DeSota, was enticed on
the 10th instant by legal process into
an unfrequented court, where hostile
partisan Democrats drew him into a
political discussion, applied an oppro-
brious epithet to him, and when he re-
sented it, one Of the bull-doZers shot
him. He returned the shot and took
to his horse, but was pulled off his ami
NAL and, while held prisoner, man
named Geo. Graves, fired both barrels
of a shot gun loaded with duck shot in
his face. A general fire was opened on
him. Despite his appeal they contin-
ued to fire OH him and beat him, and
finally left him for dead. He was how
ever able to get on his horse and after
numerous adventures reached his home,
whittier he had been pursued by the hui
man blood-hounds and where he short
ly after died. His wife writes that her
two brothers and friend stood guarl
over him the last night of his life.
Both Moore and Webber were native
white Republicans-not carpetbaggers.
A prominent Nichols officer reprobates
the murders saying: "Thed-d fool who
would kill Republican at such time
as this ought to be hung" The most
prudent White Leaguers entertain this
sentiment.

The Democrats Description of Affairs.

The Democrats Description of Affairs.
New Orleans, March 19.-The Even
ing Democrat says: MATTERS are as
suming feverish cast around the st.
Louis hotel, and things look more than
ever like conflict. By $50 O'Clock
this morning there were gathered
around st. Louis and Royal street en-
frances about one thousand negroes,
who served to make the place pande-
monium. These negroes are evidently
from the country, and are here to join
Packard's militia, which he is now en-
gagged in recruiting. He now admits
he will as soon as possible take back the
police stations, and says he would not
remain in the building two hours if he
had all his arms back. 1t can be put
down as settled fact that within a
very few days at the farthest Packard
will break the peace. His hackers in
the hotel are hot for war, and nothing
but the probable outcome is talked
about. 1t is reported that he is already
in negotiation for the purchase of arms,
and all funds comeatable are to be used
in securing them. They boast down
there that they do not want the troops
to interfere, and they assert if might
makes right they have the might. Our
citizens should be prepared for the turn
ing loose ON the streets of this gang of
ignorant negroes led by bad men, for
that is now evidently the policy of
Packard. The situation is assuming
much more of warlike attitude than
ever before since January 9th, and the
responsibility of the matter will rest on
Packard, and the fruits he will gather
will be most bitter"
