Our Radicals have generally claimed
the credit OF introducing in the State
the system OF buying and selling offices,
which has so fourished and thrived
here OF late years. To give the devil
his due, this is q mistake. The custom
ia far more ancient, and came from far
more respectable sources--indeed, Our
very first city government, as estab-
1ished by Spain, was founded upon this
somewhat peculiar basis.
When O'Reilly came to Louisiana, he
at once established q municipal govern
ment for the city OF New Orleans. q
City Council to consist Of six perpetual
Tegidores. These held their Office for
life, but were permitted, Il they felt 80
disposed, to sell these offices to the high
est bidder for one-third their value In
cash, and the other third when the pur-
chaser of the Office himself disposed OF
it. The Louisianians. Trenchmen and
Creoles, where somewhat disposed at
fret to look with disfavor upon this
system Of government, and more than
once serious outbreaks were threatened
when one Of these Offices was sold to a
rich but obnoxious Didius Julianus,
who bought 1t for the honors itentailed.
The Spanish governors. however, al
ways insisted on its continuance, as one
or the most ancient and time-honored
or Spanish customs. dating far back to
the early days Of her crusades, when the
King OF CASTLE obtained. in this man
ner, by the sale of offices, sufficientfunds
to carry on war with the infldels.
The claim OF the Radicals to the In
vention OF this system ofgovernment is,
therefore, false in fact and unfounded in
law; all they can claim Is to have re-
yived this system after ithad slept some
sixty odd years.

We cannot but admire the impudence
and audacity Of the Packard Bump. Or
Friday they went through the farce oI
addressing out of office the civil sheriff
OF this parish. The co tuition OF the
State provides for addressing out oil
office certain public officials by q vote
OF two-thirds Of the members elected to
each House of the General Assembly.
Now, every one knows that neither our
Legislature nor the Packard BUMP has
ever claimed to be composed of two
thirds of the members elected to either
house; but what are facts or constitu-
tional impediments to these burlesaue
legislators Sheriff Handy's office ex-
cited their cupidity; SO they went right
ahead and whereased and whereased,
and finally resolved .'by the Senate and
House OF Represen tatives OF the State
OF Louisiana = tDo.thirds of the
members eject to each House Of the Gen.
eral assembly eoacuyrang," that the
action OF the Supreme Court In sus-
pending Thomas II. Handy be ratified
and that he be addressed out Of office.

Nichols government, or basely falsify
his direct pledge to establish local self
government In Louisiana. They will
find IL impossible to carry out any
scheme OF reorganizing the Legis.
lature, for they will and the Legis-
lature already organized, within quorum
In both branches: because they will
find that that Legislature has enacted @
mass OF needful and necessary laws and
that large sums OF money have been
paid by the people for Its support and
maintenance, and because they will find
that the people will agree to no reorgan-
ization. but are determined. under any
and all circumstances, to stand by their
government precisely as 1t Ia now or
ganized and working.
Let the people then conflde In them
selves alone, and resolve to stand by
their government; let them resolve to
disgrace themselves by no compromises
or bargains. Their hope of free govern
ment ID not in the affection the federal
administration bears them, nor In the
buaE bibD bHa IIhdSB bbIONEH WHiGh ~
may BIO attempted TO cheat them out of
their rights and degrade them
again before the country. Their best
hope OF justice ID In their own courage
and patriotism; In their resolved pur-
pose to maintain their rights and their
honor and their interests, even OF the
point OF the bayonet, IL need be. Let
the President and the whole American
people understand this that II the
Federal power overthrows Nichols, 1t
will not establish Packard but civil mar.
1t is not by bargains and trades and
compromises and trucking that good
government 10 established and the bless

The Mayor and members Of the City
Council have entered a protest against
the Senate amendment to the House
bill fixing the rate the Criminal Sheriff
may charge for maintaining prisoners.
The Legislature of 1875 passed an act
fixing that charge at thirty cents per
diem each. This act became law with
out the signature OF the Governor, and
was recently promulgated. Some weeks
since bill was introduced in and
passed the present House, fixing the
charge at forty cents per diem. This
bill went to the Senate, which body
took it up on the 23d. amended 1t by
fixing the charge at fifty cents per diem
and passed it.
We have before us two communica-
tions from we'll known citizens review
ing and protesting against this action
OF the Senate. But instead of printing
these communications, the statements
and figures OF which. since they are not
official, may be subject of contro-

with the charge at 80 cents per diem for
keeping prisoners.
As the financial condition of the CITY
Is deplorable, and this is a matter in
yoiving large sum of money, the Leg
isIature should act with caution, and
be sure that its final action does JUS
lice both TO the taxpayers and to the
sheriff.
