The Judge before whom the politi-
cal persecution, under color of law, IS
going on at New Orleans is declared
by Secretary Sherman and other gov
ernment officials, to be a defaulter to
the government In over half a million
dollars. A fitting man to serve the
white league and cater TO their vindic.
tive and treacherous disposition. A
Republican or any other loyal citizen
would stand poor show for justice In
such court.

The Albany Journal says: "The
utterance of John Sherman and his
associates on the conviction of Gener-
al Anderson is a just and moderate
characterization of a most Infamous
proceeding" And then adds "The
one valid criticism is that IL comes SO

complished. when it might well have
rung out on the initiation of this
