TO ALL WHOM IT MAY CONCERN

Before the editor of this paper con-
sented to yield to the request Of his
friends, and become a candidate for
the convention, he ascertained that
the fact that he was the Mayor of this
city, did not conflict in any way with
the trust that a majority of the people
have reposed in him. He was inform
ed by persons competent to decide,
that a municipal officer could even
be member of the General AS
scmbly, much less hold the trust
of delegate to constitutional con-
vention, which is not an office. 1t
was shown to him besides, that on
former occasions, State officials, Su-
preme and District Judges, Parish
and Municipal officials too, had occu-
pied seats in these bodies. In the
present instance the people who have
the right to choose their representa-
tives have elected Lieut. Gov. Wilt,
several judges, and many members of
the General Assembly. Nowhere has
any question been raised on this score
save by the enemies of Leon Jastrem-
ski, who have suggested that he re-
sign his Office with a view of imposing
a sacrifice upon him that has not been
asked of anybody else. He has been
singled out for this, in order to shake
the confidence that his friends have
always reposed in him. We know
that the CAPIToL1AN, and particularly
it's editor, are thorns in the side Of
several folks here, and by inuendo
and otherwise it is sought to get them
out of the way. If the sacrifice sug-
gested, extended "all around" we
would do nothing more than discuss
the question on general terms. 1t
must be apparent to every one, how
ever, that the fact of "singling out''
the editor of this paper, is nothing
more than a covert personal attack.
Therefore we arc going to treat all
further individual attacks from that
standpoint, and we intend to use Wig
orous English and otherwise defend
ourselves in such manner as circum-
stances will require. In doing this,
we feel that our friends will Justify
such course, if yielding to a very
natural feeling of indignation, we turn
upon our implacable foes.
