which they had been elected or appointed.

passed the bill anyway, believing that IT was
better to reduce few salaries than make no
reductions at all The newspapers of the
city, without exception, opposed any reduc-
ton In the pay Of the police and tiremen-

refused to strike out the clauses reducing
their pay, and passed the bill as 1t was rec
commended by the retrenChment committee.

friend. No attempt was even made TO amend
it-Democrats, Republicans, Independents
and Socialists all united In defeating the bill,
and it was defeated, rejected, by unanimous
vote, twenty-six of the twenty eight members

The Alabama Delegation and the Tariff.
TMnhi1a Repia'nr1

Some days ago the Register spoke of the
vote upon the tariff question and analysed
the character of that vote, showing that it
was divided very nearly on party lines, that
a few Democrats voted to defeat the Wood
bill and few Republicans voted to sustain it..
Leaving out OF view the exceptional Demo
Gratis who are in favor of protecting certain
interests. and the few Republicans who are
willing to abandon the protective system, it
was seen by our analysis that the vote wasvery
strictly party vote. The conclusion drawn
from the vote was that If the Wood bill
was barely defeated in the House, in which
the Democrats have very small and preca-
rious majority. a reform tariff bill will I'M
dOubtedly succeed in the next House, which
is expected to have large Democratic ma
iority.
In making this analysis of the vote the
Register had no opportunity to look at the
Congressional record of that vote, but took
the names of the Democrats who voted
against the bill from some newspaper which
published the list. Among the names so re-
ported was that of Hon. Jere ". Williams, OF
the Barbour District OF this State.
We are now Informed by a gentleman who
knows the facts that Mr.. Williams was absent
from Washington when the vote was taken.
He had been called to the death bed OF his
father. Had he been in his seat he would have
voted for the Wood bill, and the Republican
with whom he was paired would have voted
against it. 1t is proper to set Mr.. Williams
right in this matter The Alabama delegation
were a unit in favor of tariff reform.

A New Constitution.
New Iberia Sugar Bowl.

Now that parish conventions will soon as
semble to elect delegates to the Baton Rouge
Democratic nominating convention, we hope
to see full and free expression OF the popu-
lar will about new constitution. We have
no doubt that the anxiety OF the people to
rid themselves Of the disgraceful so-called
Louisiana State Lottery, and the rings
which to-day are engaged in robbl1g
ally declare in favor Of a constitutional con-
vention. At the parish conventions, dele
gates should be instructed what course
10 take at Baton Rouge in rela-
tion to the proposed amendments 10 the con-
stitution Individually, we are in favor Of re-
fusing to vote on the amendments, but would
nominate delegates to a constitutional con-
ventiOn, to be voted for at our next general
election, and then let each parish nominate
for the Legislature men pledged to call said
convention at an early date next year. This
would be somewhat irregular, but we believe
legal, and as the last Legislature entirely dis
regarded the wishes Of the people, who almost
unanimously demand the overthrow OF the
defective Radical constitution Of 1863 we hope
bold steps will now be taken, and ii the peo-
ole in determined manner express them
selves, no power in the State dare gainsay
their will.
[Natchitoches yindicatorI
We have repeatedly called attention to the
fact that the advocates for constitutional
convention have never intimated a purpose to
repudiate the State debt. This charge has come
twice from the same source the New orleans
Times, and is calculated not to iniure the
cause of a constitutional convention, but the
credit of the State. The basis Of debt which
cannot stand an honest constitution is poor
indeed, but what must we think Of the wretch
who would charge the majority Of Democrats
in Louisiana with being dishonest repudia-
! tors; for the assertion that constitutional
| convention is fatal to our State credit can be
| construed in no other way.
Shame on the outcast that would utter such
! falsehOod.

The Monetary Conference.
[Chicago Tribune.

WASHINGTON, June 30.-The detailed in
structions to the silver commissioners have
not been completed, Secretary Sherman said
tonight that they won Id generally direct the
com missioners to endeavor to secure the
adoption of a bimetallic standard, with or
without limitation. Silver men, perhaps,
have not expected that the commissioners
would be instructed to labor for the adoption
of limited silver standard.
The Information which Secretary Sherman
has relative to the participation of Great
Britain In the international monetary con-
ference is that her commissioners will be
present, but that their acts shall be without
effect until ratified by Parliament.
