The Radical plan Of campaign is gradually
developing itself. They will make no nornf-
nation for the Office OF State Treasurer, but
'trab all OF their strength towards securing
the next Legislature. And they propose to
accomplish this by allowing the known Dem
ocratic parishes TO go uncohtested; In the
Republican parishes they will nominate
stTaight-out Radical candidates, and in par
ishes where the vote Is quite evenly divided
they will attempt to bring out com bination
tickets, composed OF colored Republicans and
White men OF some influence who would con-
sent TO Join them.
