proprietors New Orleans DEMOCRAT:
conference.-the undersigned, Democrats
desire TO express to you their emphatic APP
p,uyal of tile course of the DEMOCRAT upon
the question OF constitutional convention,
the lottery monopoly and other important IS
sues now being discussed; and we are espe-
cialy gratfied at the failure Of the recent AZ
tempt to ompromise your journal ana II y,
volye YOU In the meshes OF Mr.. Ghafles L..
Howard
we are convinced that the present danger
Of the Democratic party IS want OF courage
In some of its leaders. We believe that the
only method OF reuniting the party Is Inc as
sembling, by the present Legislature, o.
constitutional convention OF the peoples DEL
euates. representing the Sovereignty OF the
State, TO frame constitution suited IN all re-
ispects to their condition and wants.
The inadeuuacy of the proposed amend
ments. tie differences Of opinion already
manifested in relation to them In and cat OF
the Legislature. and the certainty that
large and influential body of offce-holders
will oppose and attempt to defeat some OF the
most important Of them, make lt.obvious 10
us that The party can carry out Its reform
pledges made to the people by no means othef
than through peoples convention.
Trusting that YOU will continue your very
wise and patriotic course we are yours, very
respectfully,
