when. Il Mr.. Hayes does not propose TO
violate his pledges, and those Of his
nearest friends who spoke for him, the
troops will be Withdrawn and the dues-
ton left for settlement by Nichols and

II tho President really desires that
there should be canvass OF the votes
actually cast at the late election, to aseer-
tain who are the members OF the Legis-
lature. that the Legislature thus aseer-
tanned and organized may canvass the
vote for Governor and declare who has
the legal title to the office, why does he

The New Orleans daily Democrat. [volume] (New Orleans, La.) 1877-1880, 1877-04-03

The municipal election which takes
place In st. Louis to-day has been pre-
oeded by heated canvass. The people
of Louisiana have. very deep interest
in that election. Hudson, one OF the
candidates for Mayor, who, from the
st. Louis papers, we judge to be quite
strong, Is the same individual, il we are
not very much mistaken, who some
time since said that "the South had
not yet been whipped enough" and
who more recently, In the Missouri
Legislature, voted against a resolution
Of that patriotic body requesting the
President to withdraw the troops from
this State. We sincerely hope the
voters OF st. Louis who desire the resto-
ration Of peace and prosperity in the
South, and the resuscitation Of the agri-
cultural and commercial interests of
this State and city, SO important to the
commercial interests Of st. Louis, will
vote solidly against Mr.. Hudson.
The people OF New Orleans have a very
deep interest in the st. Louis election,
as the election to the mayoralty of that
great city Of man entertaining the
sentiments Of Mr.. Hudson would be
a tacit Endorsement by St. Louise
a Southern city, OF the views
expressed by Mr.. Hudson and con-
condemnation Of a pacific policy on the
part of the Administration toward Lou

Three Of the prominent candidates for
the appointment OF the Colleotorsbip OF
this port, who have recently visited
Washington, with d view doubtless Of
urging their claims, have returned to the
city. They are Gen. Mcmillan. Jas. y.
Casey and Geo. A. Sheridan. The first
named is Packard man, the other two
are anti packard. Each Ia sanguine Of
his success, whilst other knowing ones
are quite confident that DIR. Hugh
Kennedy IL the favorite In this four
mile race.
1t ID said that President Hayes has
deferred the consideration Of all Federal
appointments in New Orleans until the
Louisiana oase ID settled.

eminent they may be. For all rrRotiS
| cal purposes, and from d constitutional
point OF view, Legislature composed
OF majority Of the members actually
elected IL as good and legal Legisla-
ture az one composed Of all the mem
bers elected. Such Legislature we
have now. II suits uH and 1t Ia imma-
terial TO the people OF Louisiana
whether 1t is satisfactory to outsiders or
not That Legislature has already
enacted measures OF reform which will
result In an annual saving to the
people OF tho State Of nearly million
Of dollars, and has faithfully discharged
its duties TO its constituents. It would
BIO an insult to this body TO ask 1t 10
confess that Il has been acting In VIOLA
ton OF the constitution and usurping
functions which do not belong to It.
There can be no reorganization Of the
Legislature without the cooperation Of
the gentlemen sitting OF Odd Fellows
Hall, and we have too much confidence
In them to believe for moment that they
will abandon the impregnable position
they now hold and degrade themselves
by bartering away the rights OF their
constituents.
OF course, nothing would suit Mr..
Hayes better than compromise where
by criticism would be sileneed and OPP
position to his policy abandoned by all
parties, but he ought to have intelli-
genee enough to know that. under the
circumstances governing the political
situation In this State. where political
parties, in their aims, policies and per.
sonnet. are as wide apart as the poles,
no such good fortune awaits him, and
that he can win much more credit and
renown by pursuing bold and manly
course than by attempting 10 drive o
hard bargain with q people absorbed In
a struggle for liberty and self-govern-
ment. No: the very name OF eompro-
mise Ia odious to us, and we'll none OF
1t. Well hold the fort or chaos comes
again.
