Sam Cary addressed Democratic meet.

hall was well filled, the Republicans seem.
ing to enjoy the fun aud be as much
amused as the Democrats. It was the
same old Sam, with bis funny way Of put
ting things, his mimicry and gesture, only
with hair little grayer than when he
used to prophesy in the wilderness. His
subject was the finances. The busines.
boom he neither placed to the credit Of
the Democrats nor took from the credit oi
the Republicans, but contented himself
with the remark that we need never have
gone through the valley OF financial
humiliation had not such men as John

invested their money, by decreasing the
value OF real estate and merchandise.

THE Democratic and Conserva
tive voters of our Parish shonld bear
in mind, that the nominees of their
faithful and trusty party, whose
names grace our editorial column
are the choice and free selection of a
Convention Of their own party, and
that all three of these gentlemen
have been battling for over twelve
long years to redeem Rapides, and
that together, we succeeded in No
vember last. And now, though we
have no regular opposition against
this ticket, it would be sin and a
shame, to see them elected, as they
will undoubtedly be, by small vote.
This must not be, we must turn out
en- m,asse, and see what a vote we
can send them to New Orleans with,
and let them be proud Of the honor
bestowed cordially and with a heavy
vote. Do you hear that, men of Ra.

LETTERS FROM The PEOPLE.
CALCAsIEU WARD, I
March z, 1879. (

~ March Z, 1881
Editor La. Democrat
We did not send delegates to the
Parish Convention, which met in AL
exandria on Saturday last, and l feel
ashamed of our neglect in the matter,
therefore, l drop you a few lines to tell
you, aud our old Democratic friends,
that it makes no difference, for we are
still sound on the old goose, and fully
alive to the great Importance of the
elaction for Delegates to the Constitu-
tional Convention, and intend to wipe
out this badness of ours by doing all
We can for the ticket, and in polling q
full vote for it, and nearly an uuani-
NOUS one at that.
& / received the last DEMOCRAT You
sent me awhile ago, from the Hlneston
Post Office, and thank you kindly for
sending it,, l have seen since receiv-
ing itseveral Of the boys, and with me
they all like the ticket, and will go the
whole hog for it. We have voted be-
fore for DR.. Luckett, know him to be a
deserving man, a faithful Legislator
and an excellent and sound Democrat.
Captain White We know BY good re-
Epute, heard him speak last canvass
twice; and that satisfied us he was the
right man stamping for our party
against the Combination, as you called
them all sorts of political fellows, and
now We believe he is the right man in
the right place as the head of our bully
ticket. Mr.. Bolton we do not know,
have never seen, but we heard Moth
ing but good Of him from our Police
Jurors, Mr.. Dixon, Mr.. Williams and
Mr.. Joe Moore. They all three talk
we'll and in the best of liking Of him;
say he makes q tip-top and faithful
Police Juror, and that satisfies as out
here, because we are assured besides
he is a good Democrat and sound to
the core for orr party.
Well, old DEMOCRAT, here's my old
hand grip and party sign once more to
you, and you just go it strong for this
ticket. for 0nr dear marty. and give
them the best ticks in your locker.
Tell them for US out here, that we will
give the ticket q big vote, will stir up
our neighbors In their favor, aud we
will do our level best to send clean
Democratic box to Town. Be sure to
send me the DEMOCRAT again, and be.

sincerely and fraternally, ~

tricks to defeat us. We have had
enough Of that sort Of foolishness, and
We dare tell them we are not only

them at every stand they make, and
defeat them at tue Polls.
We come once more into the frht
for our ticket, composed Of onr choice,
Jim White, George Bolton and Bob
Luckett, and we come again with
Bonded bow and culver full of arrows
to meet them face to face, and are not
craven enough to deny it. We en-
dorse our course, in the last canvass,
and the way it was conducted by orr
leaders, our friends, the G. NJ. G's,
and We are now fighting it on the
Same line. The croakings and grunts
Of soreheads, independents and all the
stuff We beat. last time, compounded
into the Custom House Combination,
have NO terrors for this section, and
we will prove it on the 18th. We have
but ten days to work, and you can as-
sure our friends, all over the Parish,
that those ten days will not be wasted
ones. Our organization is perfect and
cordial, and our aims are the sane-
the redemption Of our people from the
slavery of the Jayhawkers' Constitu-
ton of 1868, and the making Of ono to
suit our people. And We oil believe
we have nominated suitable and COM
petent men to fill the bill, hence our
endorsement and manly support OF
our standard bearers, James G. White,
G.. w. Bolton aud r. L. Luckstt.

Old Democrat
Here's to you for the graceful wreath
you have entwined on Bayou Rapides'
Democracy and Conservatism, and
once more, as in the last canvass, your
correspondent sees the white plume Of
Murat shining in the thickest Of the
battle, and be assured our past record
is sufficient guarantee that We will be
found with our great party, bearing
our candidates AS the gallant Douglas
bore the Bruce's heart, and will, II
oyerpowered, fling it far into the midst
Of its enemies, aud falling, COVERED
with wounds and glory, prvtect the
sacred treasure even 10 death.
We yield to no one the palm of feal-
ty to the tenets Of our grand old party,
and now, as in the past, We have
thrown ourselves into the breach, are
waiting for the bngle blast of March
18th to sound the charge, and woe be
those who cross our victorious legions.
Again we mean business, We know We
are right, have no scraples to assert
orr rights, and our Precinct Intends to-
climb to the pinnacle IF anr party In
representation, and have Is Delegates
in the next Parish Convention. Stick
Democratic pin there, mark this pre-
diction. As you say, and again !
thank son for your candor and Justice
to our party here, we have won our
spurs fairly, and surely we can't afford
to see them rusted or bluntetl, bat, on
the contrary, they are now barnished
anew and brightly for the election day.

ish have no foemen worthy of their
steel, in this home contest, still the
old soreheads, GROWERS, croakers

words of discouragement to our peo-
pie. Heed them not, voters of Ra-
pides, but go to the polls and let us
strive to beat our own vote of No.

THERE is nothing like backing
your friends in sunshine, and In
storm. There is a manliness in this
truism that we wish to impress on
the Democratic and Conservative
masses, and that we desire them to
practice ON next Tuesday. Though
j. G. White, G. w. Bolton and r. t.
Luckett have no regular opposition,
simply because our opponents are
beaten and dismay reigns in their
councils, that is no reason why your
free and easy voter should hold back,
on the contrary, it should be an in
centive among us all to strive to
show our fealty to our grand old
party, now that it is victorious every
where, and give them a heavy vote,
a full vote.

it all their own way, and We await tho

most Of his article with some excellent
remarks in agriculture, tho true wants
of the day, all again stolen from sorne

diced contributors. Verify, Mr.. Edi-
tor, this bohemian importation, who
has vnlgarly shocked and siDaed
against this community over since biz
advent here, should at least not dis.
grace the profession he belongs to by
longer continuance OF these plagia-
risms, and claiming them a. his own

a-days, steals a pauper purse, really
steals trash, but he who steals 90 often

good English, as his own and claims
them, is surely q sneak thief with .
ton of brass on each cheek.
Why, Mr.. Editor, do you know that
some ak or eight weeks since, IN .
leader headed "The Reception Al tho
Catholic Church," he actually repub-
listed 10 full, as his own editorial, an
admirable aud beautifully written ar-
ticle, taken from tho Catholic Star, u
New Orleans, and did not have enough
common shrewdness to substitute tho
description and trimmings Of the
Church Altar here for those Of the New
Orleans Church, as graphically de-
scribed in the stolen article, bat actu.
ally palmed it off here to his few road
ers az his Own. No wonder, Mr.. Edi.
tor, Bentley, Of the Donaldsonville
Chief, 80 we'll and fittingly scaIped
him, some time since, for his pIagia-
risms, and only put in my pruning

that 'sWe the People, still sins on that
line, and after receiving such castiss-
tions and brandiDgs, in your columns,
should subside, fold his dirty and tat
tered tent, and steal away to his Gus
