at Colfax, but owing to stage ac-
cident, in which Mr.. Elam is said |
to have broken an arm and q leg, |
he did not arrive Mt the hour ex-
pected. Much disappointment was
occasioned and regret and sympa-
thy expressed for the sutferings OF
our Congressional champion.
As 4 considerable number had |
gathered, it was thought best not
to disappoint them, and DR.. w. &.
Ieal, of Colfax, and Hr. Jas. Bird,
of VIM, were prevailed upon TO
make addresses. The court house
was thrown open and about ninety
persons occupied the seats. Judge
Richardson was called upon TO
preside over the meeting.
DIR. Deal reviewed the conduct
and official career of some of the
military satraps that disgraced the
army while figuring in Louisiana
in Republican interest, aud then
took up the home men who have
since tried to perpetuate the out
rageous tyranny practiced during
Kellogg's time. He pointed out
H. Mcknight as the man who car
ried the votes of the colored peo-
pie of Grant parish in ms pocket,
and upon being called uppu 10 re-
peat it, did so, when Nc Enig.lt t.
piled by telling the do tor ti..l IL
lied, asking to be allowed 70 reply
to the doctors remarks This The
doctor agreed to, clsinins the
right to answer, anIftl.e auaieace

rage when he took the iinpr AMI
trembled percepti!,ly He saii BE-
was charged with banding the nc

speaker if he was not member OF
the Republican Mother Club. He
replied that he joined that crgani-
cation two years ago, but it wrs
now defunct. He ha, rs much
interest ut stake, as any man, and
claimed TO be just US honest as ally
other man. He was for oifire. lnss
as were al the rest.
In his reply the doctor most con
clusively proved his assertion thai
MIR. Mcknight banded the colored
people together and carried the;'
votes in his pocket, AMI pressed
his argument SO close, aud So gros'
and latent was the indic nity Mr.
Mcknight had offered the doctor
that he became ashamed Of his ac

injustice he may baye done thu

fifteen minutes, during which b'
gave several good illustrations o
the way in which the present'hlapi
dated affairs Of Stale are to b'
