The Meridional. (Abbeville, La.) 1856-1906, 1878-10-19
TO THE PEOPLE OF THE 10th
SENATORIAL DISTRICT.

Parish of Vermilion, Oct. 14th 1873.
Sometime since, an address to
the people of Vermilion parish.
was published over the signature
of F. R. King, in which said King
says: -#j .ts ...a.., T..
when I announced myself as
candidate before. the Democraticf
Convention to be assembled to
nominate a State Senator for the
10th Senatorial District, | was un-
der the impression that the peo-
pie of Vermilion parish were to be
free and untrameled In their
choice Of candidates, and had not
months in advance been bartered
and sold ike dumb cattle to the
people Of Calcasieu, by a corrupt
bargain entered into at the last
session of the Legislature between
Adrien Nnnez, our representative,
and Mr.. Richardson, the represent
tative Of Calcasieu.
1t turns out as a fact however,
that said Nunez in consideration
Of Calcas.eu's vote in the Legisla-
ture for a certain pet measure of
his, whereby Calcasieu was to be
added to this Senatorial District,
that he did actually bargain and
pledge, without the knowledge or
consent of his constituents, the
parish of Vermilion to support a
CaIcasieu's man for State Sena-
tor"
The truth of these charges l
most empAatically and positively
derry.
In the first place, I have no
power, nor did | ever attempt to
bind and pledge the people Of my
parish without their knowledge or
consent, or in any other way. In
the second place. the people of
Vcrmilion cannot be bought or sold.
The parish convention which
assembled in July last, at Able
Vile and endorsed Mr.. Wells las
the first choice of Vermilion," and
which King styles a faction" was
called together by resolution of
the Democratic Executive Com.
mittee, regularly assembled king
acting chairman pro tenn of the
meeting.) ...-..
On account of sickness in my
family, l was prevented from at
tending the primary ward meeting
in my own ward, the parish and
senatorial conventions, to which
latter | was a delegate and had to
send my proxy.
sThe facts of the so,called "cor.
rupt bargain" are these While
the apportionment bill was under
, consideration, during the last LIE.
gislature, Mr.. Richardson, the re-
preventative from Calcasieu. mani.
Tested a desire to remain in the
same district with St. Landry, and
was not favorable to the meas
ure Of placing in what is now the
10th Senatorial District, and sta
ted to me that Calcasieu had al
ways been ignored in the selection
of district officers. In reply l re
marked to him that if he would
support the measure, and in case
the bill should pass and become a
law, %insuring the Democraticdpar
ty, two Senators from that dis
trict, that | thought the claims 0.
The Meridional. (Abbeville, La.) 1856-1906, 1878-10-19

CaIcasieu in this respect should
be recognized, and promised to
use my own anA fence with my con
stituents in that direction ; p,orl
ded Calcasieu would present a com
petent man for the position, and
one who could unite the Democra-
tic vote of that parish, for the .frd-
Senator, under the new apportton
ment. This is all that was said or
done or said~on the subject ; any
statement, from any quarter, to
the contrary Notwithstanding
Mr.. Richardson finally supported
thl measure.
| have been unavoidably pre-
vented from giving publicity to
the facts in this matter, on account
of constant sickness in my family !;
| feel confident, however. that the
Democratic party Of my parish. as
we'll as the Democrats Of the other
parishes of the District who know.
me will pay no attention to such a
malicious and unfounded charge
as is attributed to me by King.
But. as it seems, now, as have
been informed lately. that Kings
address found a few credulous
enough to place any credence in 1t,
| now, say to those, that it is a It's:
sue of misstatements and mlsrepre.
sensations. nnsustained and unsus-
tainable by any fact or cifcum-
stance.
In conclusion | will state that, !
never spoke, nor wrote a single
word to anv OF the delegates com
prising the parish convention
hich endorsed Mr.. Wells, and |
never entered into any bargain
corrupt, or otherwise, with any
one as regards the vote Of my par
ish in the senatorial convention
and will add that | never spoke
nor wrote to Mr.. Wells in nv life
but he. being the regular Demo
cratic nominee for Senator of this
District | exhort and entrcat all
nv friends. and all true Democrats
to give him their cordial and TN
divided support. #, csts =. 81

r.5~ Registration is going on

r@5~ Registration is going on
very slowly, not more than one
half Of the voters have registered,
although the Office has been open
for weeks and the Registrar has
made a tour of the parish. 1t is
the duty Of EVERY man to regis
ter and vote at the coming election,
and but a few weeks remain to do
it in. The negroes and Republl-
cans have nearly all registered
and will vote solid in November.
From appearances the registration
will be small and the vote polled,
exceedingly slim.

ia The Shreveport Times
wants a National quarantine es.
tablished by Congress-, with is
many restrictions as all the fools in
the Union, outside of the insane
asylums, can imagine. If Con-
gress, indeed, should lose the
little reason that it does possess
and inflct npon an outraged
country such an unhearable
absurdlty as a National quaran-
tine, we should, assuredly be
entitled to the compassionate
pity of the civilized world. What
we in fact do need is State laws
explicitly defining the powers of
local authorities in quarantine
matters. AS it is now, every
crossroads settlement in the
Union, calling itself a town,
imagines itself vested with any
and all powers which the whims
of its inhabitants may suggest.
Possessed of neither reason MOI
a knowledge of the disease, and
thoroughly imbued with absurd
theories Of their own creation
they establish their Boards O.
Health, who neither respecting
law nor the inalienable rights Of
individuals, usnrp powers that
an autocrat would not dare tc
assume, and with sublime impu
dence illuminate their lmperious
DEGREES, which would strike terror
to the heart Of a Comanche in
dian. The people are abou1
thoroughly Disguised with the
whole yellow fever quarantine
business and fully realize hat i
is but the inhuman relic Of a bar
barous age. Let Congress ap
point a commission OF skilled anC
eminent physicians to Investigate
the nature and cause Of thu
disease, together with the bes
method Of preventing it, if posi-
BILE. And let the States act upoI

so unfortunate as to live in

enough of itself, but the cur
which these wild, scatter-braine
) theorists propose is oftentimes

We were mistaken in stating in
our issue Of the 9Th inst, that our
townman F. R. King, Esq. had
departed for the parish Of Cal
casieu on a Senatorial canvassing
tour. we learn that just on the
eve of his intended departure, Mr..
KING was attacked with a severe
cold and sore throat, followed by
the rising Of a painful adscess in
his left car, and which confined
him to his home for some days.
he is now convalescing and
promises to make things pretty
lively for his competitor Mr..
Wells, between now and the
election.

gag% On the tenth of last month
Hon. George FL. Pendleton,
senator.elect from Ohio, made a
thrilling campaign speech in CO,
lumbus, the capital Of that state.
He reviewed the Election frauds
Of '76, and the present administra.
ton. In conclusion he spoke as
follows: Let US remember, and
duly approve the act, that Presl.
dent Hayes, in the midst of unusual
embarrassmentS, has withdrawn
the federal troops from the state
houses in Louisiana and South
Carolina, and thereby restored
self-govel nment to those states
Let US remember, and duly ap
plaud the act, that he has spoken
for civil service reform. These
acts deserve warmer commenda
ton, for they were done against
special opposition. They have
alienatd partisan friends, broker
a united support, and divided
perhaps fatally, the Republican
oganization."
