the Native American Association, and
oath-bound secrets, their mysteries dark
and grim. only one chosen race may stand.
Tho portals are closed against all save the
selected few who know the password and
the grip. Is this American politics ? Within
the wide ranks OF the Democratic party there
Is room for citizens Of all classes and national
tiles 1t has no mysteries save the broad, en-
lightened and catholic principles which con-
stitute the basis OF this Republic; and these
mysteries are breathed In the atmosphere Of
our land. Democracy knows no distinction
between the American, the Frenchman, the
German, the Speniard or the Irishman; 1t
knows only free and liberal principles Of gov
ernment.
We will not discuss here the special grlev
ances which Mr.. Fleming tells us the Native
Americans have suffered at the hands Of the
foreign population, Our object In this article
Ia only to analyae the prineple upon which
the Native American party is based and to
show its ruinous tendencies. AS for our part
we cannot enter into the sorrow some Of our
Native American friends feel over the fact
that a few foreigners are made office-holders
For II the otIlce-ho!der or the candidate be q
citizen OF Louisiana, honest and capable. we
care not whether he WAS born IN America,
India. Germany, or anywhere else. Our war

against all nationalities who are corruption

In the publication of the names. for instance,
some are declared to have been entirely ON TIED
for prudt ntial and family reasons; In others
only the surnames were given when the Chris
tian names were needed to identify the parties.
why was this ? Why was the respectable name
of Witt exnunged, while others no more con-
spicuous were paraded in black letters?
The honored name of ?. S. Wiltz, the uncle
of our much esteemed Lieutenant Governor,
T.. 4. Wiltz, was expunged from our second
publication, because Mr.. ?. S. Wiltz Is not
now q member of that organization. Mr.. P
S. Wilt withdrew in disgust as soon as he
detected the base uses to which the assoca-
tion was being prostituted. "Only this and

After filling the State with more din than
is raised by a band Of practicing musicians
in a quiet neighborhood the so-called Ma
tionals of Ohio polled one vote in sixteen !!
Their clamor was so great and their claims
SO startling that the oldest parties were
frightened and in an excess Of prudence es-
timated the strength of the new movement at
100000. The Nationals claimed $50, 900, six or
seven congressional districts, and any num-
ber of local offices. Their real vote was about
400O0 and the statement is made that they
did not elect a single candidate, from con-
gresham to constable, in the whole State
They had q plurality only in one county, a
majority in none.
AS In Ohio, so in Louisiana. Several months
ago the so-called Nationals began to make
stir In the State, and organized In this CITY,
Emissaries had been sent into the country,
and reports began to be circulated of the
growing strength Of the new party. Finally,
and in accordance with previous understand
ing with the Returning Board ring, conven-
tion was called, and the farce of selecting can
didates already determined upon was gone
through with AS soon as the ticket was put in
the field those not in the secret began to see
that they had been betrayed into the hands Of
Wells, Anderson and the rest Of the gang,
and commenced to desert. Their numbers
were never large. and the movement
was rapidly dsintegrating when the
DEMOCRAT OF Sunday appeared. The
exposure of the connection of the National
leaders with the Native American and Red
Warrior secret organizations completed the
work already begun, and scattered the rem
nants of tie party to the Winds The Re
turning Board wing Of it may remain in the
