No Compromise Of Any Kind.

We want no Commission to adjust"
matters for US; we are able to take care
of ourselves. Louisiana has been sui.
ficiently investigated" already. and
the facts about our election are known
everywhere. Hence these gentlemen
cannot and must not be received by our
neople In any official capacity. AS visI-
tors to Louisiana they will be welcomed,
but no conferences should be had about
eornpromise or adjustment OF any char
