THE RIGHT TALK,

The following from the Peoples Tindi-
Gator sotfuds tho true key note aud we
endorse it without tho dotting of An or
the crossing ola t:
Tho Legislature, composed partly of
Democrats, but mainly Of Radicals and
weak Conservatives. having adjourned
during hich time they did absolutely
nothing to benefit tho people, it behoevss
us now to look tho issues likely to be
prominent this fall squarely in tho face.
Louisiana is a Democratic State-none
can gainsay that-and the majority 70,
that party this election will depend en-
tirely upon the mako up of their ticket,
congressman. For ourselves we say
plainly, and We believe it to be tho senti.
lncnt Of this entire community, that we
intend to support no man, by word or
deed, who has not straight out, full
hedgcd, pure record, dyed in tho wool
Democrat. Time. aud the evidence in
book, has completely cured every one of
and men who will maintain, execute and
promote Thorn without regard to the
howls of tho fanatic, or the walls of pri-
waite toes tread upon, is what tho people
OF this state require and demand, and
they are going to continue tho battle
without regard to who gets hurt until
they accomplish that end.
Their platform is terse and to tho point:
l.. An honest constitution; and to that
end vote down the amendments and call
constitutional convention.
z. No man for Office, either high or low,
save he be an honest, straight-out Democrat
3. All laws for the benefit and protect
ion of society, without regard to race,
color or previous condition.

tween the two Houses, and ~ the senate
Is disposed to INSIST upon tlloir terms, and
the House Icing equally as stubborn, tho
conference committees have no c,ssy
task before them to reconcile If possible
the difference of Senate, bill and House
bill. A bill establishing postal saw ipgs
bank depository was introduced, which
makes them branch to the Post Oface
Department., and also authorizes the fun
ding of the interest boa ring debt of the
U. 8. The naval bill was passed, with
out amendment, appropriating $14 o4s-
6S4, for that service.
Tho work of the House at present
stands Tins; Military Academy bill in
committee Of conference, Consular and
Diplomatic Till passed, and with Senate
committee on appropriations Fortiffca-
ton bill passed both Houses, and now p
law; Deficiency bill passed by the House
and forwarded to the senate, Pension
bill, reported by tho appropriation COM
mittoe and lying OH speakers desk. Ma
val bill sppropristing $l4,048, 684, passed
without amendment. At this rate the
adjournment Of Congress prior to August
is more assured now than ever. The
House appropriation committee are we'll
up with their work, and will perhaps
have all appropriation bills reported by
18th Of May.
The difference, between existing con-
tracts for mail service in the extreme
west, and those here recently awarded
by the Post Office Department., will be o
saving to tho Government Of moro than
million dollars, which reduction will
cause the contract department Of the P.
o. to reduce its estimates of the cost Of
the service in about the same ratio. So
much for having democrat ut the head
Of the Post Office Department.

Pursuant to the call Of

State Central Committee Of
the Democratic party will
meet in New Orleans on the
first day of May aext. This
will be really the first step in
the coming campaign. and an

consider it in the full scope Of

Gus questions that will be i'm

sition to ignore this question.
too plain to he misconst. ued.
we should certainly deem it
unnecessary to allude to the
subject.
We take it as a conceded
proposition, that the Democ~

humiliation at the hands of

being saddled with the res
possibility # the miserable
aud disgracetul failure o: the
legislature to achieve those
great measures of true re-
form to which the great De-
mocratic party, with its "con-
sentative" ally was pledged
in the late grand contest
which resulted in the wrest~
ing of the State govern
ment from the hands of the
carpet-baggers and placing
it in the keeping of our own
people.

themselves of the opporturi-
ty thus offered, to accom-

We will not suppose that
any one is 80 blind as not to

the blame rests. This gu. s.
ton we will not here discuss
It's enough to know that the
Democratic party will be
made to suffer from the delin-
quencies of protested friends
or, to express it perhaps more
plainly. she is reaping now,
the first fruits of that fatal
step when, to mollify a miser-

pie Of West Feliclana, that
the convention be called, and
at as early a day as possible,

Their information than this meagre
outline of the grounds upon which
the judgment of the court was rem

an extraordinary proceeding for
any court OF law to overthl ow the
verdict Of jury as to q question
OF fact, unless IN the opinion Of the
judges that verdict was contrary
to the weight OF evidence. The
case was SO clear of all d,ubls a.
to the guilt Of the accused ;, The
testimony p. owed 30 pos. lively that
the relurne had been forged, and
the learned magistrate who pre-.
sided'at the trial 50 fully presented
all the points Of law bearing upon
the ques' ions raised, that this &C,

never to have been dreamed OF by
