4 III OON L Il hbNOb6,

We have complained that the gentlemen
representing the organization of Democratic
Conservative citizens, and the State Central
and Parish Committee and ward organizn-
tions have observed too much secrecy in their
deliberations to meet the views Of M anxious
public, and we regret that matters have not
yet assumed shape that would Justify the be-
lief that harmony Is to prevail In the Demo-
ic-Conservative ranks.
| FROM The rnmors prevailing we appre-
| bend that the main point Of difference
with the committees will BIO as to the method
Or selecting candidates for the convention.
Naturally the gentlemen who have eontem-
plated separate action, because Of belief that
the methods customary In the party would
operate unfairly to them, dstrust the asgu-
RANGES which appear to have been fairly given
by the State Central Committee, Parish Com
mittee and the political elements generally,
that they would only support men Of ability
| and good character as candidates; and we fear
that this distrust will lead the Citizens Com
mittee into the error of seeking to establish a
precedent which Is contrary to the spirit Of
free government
The Democratic party Is essentially n
party Of the people, and its representative
committees cannot assume to dictate to the
people who they shall support In this grave
emergency.
The people have constituted an organiza-
tion Tor the purpose of prescribing rules and
regulations by which a fair expression OF
their choice may be indicated but they have
not authorized any body OF men to bind them
TO the support of individuals, and would re-
sent an attempt to assume such authority as
a usurpation.
Inc whole people demand, that In primary
and general elections proper safeguards shall
be thrown around the ballot, but In order that
all classes OF this community may be fairly
represented, the majority, as fairly ascer-
tanned. must and should rule.
We suggest to the gentlemen who are 60
earnestly and properly engaged In this effort
70 save our people from the disasters of fac
uonal strife, that they should ignore all
past difference, put aside distrust and soberIv
ADDRESS themselves to the problem of framing
sueh rules and regulations as will make frand
ana chicanery I'M possible In the future. Each
element should have equal numbers of the
onlcers OF election, and all should bend their
pest energies toward establishing such
OASIS Tor elections as will remove all cause of
complaint
IL Inc committee Of the Democratic party
nave declined to assume the right to make
nominations, they have acted properly. and
We nope tnat no such action will cause rup-

The English are resorting to their old
tricks to brighten the Afghans. In India they
blew Sepoy prisoners from the mouths of
cannon In order to strike terror into the popu-
fation, Now they are shooting the Afghan
guerillas that may happen to fall into their
hands and burning their bodies afterward.
In this way they punish the Afghans here
and hereafter, nm Afghan having MS holy a
horror Of being burned us a Chinaman has of
being buried out OF the Flowery Kingdom.
This may be good way TO prevent Afghan
uprlslngs but 1t does not reflect any great
credit on the British name.

cedinR edition, aud cloquently evidences the
good account to which Mr. Soards has turned
an experience ranging through period Of
over twelve years. The Typography of the

In addition TO a complete record OF the resi-
dents of the city. the book contains classified
business directory. and an appendix contain
Ing much useful information In the shape OF a
directory OF Federal. State. municipal and
other offices. as well as schools, churches:
foreign eonsuls. societies. places OF amusement
etc. The labor incidents to the compilation OF
directory Of this complete nature Is sim DIV
enormous. and 1t should meet with substantial
encouragement by the entire business commu-
nifty, to whom Its results are absolutely In yalu-
able.
The whole appearance of the work reflects

In complaining Of some Of the irregulari-
ties OF the postal service, the Washington
Post makes one curious mistake. In speak
ing Of the mail service between Galveston
and Morgan City, 1t states that not over one
hundred letters are carried by this route per
month. The Post is. OF course. greatly mis-
taken, as all the Texas mail from Louisiana.

Congressman Ewing has a proposition OF

plan for meeting its requirements. The one
