The Lottery Bill Is Signed.

On Thursday, March 9th, 1879,
at III. 80 A. NJ, Governor Nichols
signed the Lottery bill, and it is
now a law. The last section Of the
bill provides that it shall take effect
from and after March 81, 1879.
We congratulate the people OF
Louisiana, and especially of New
Orleans, on this action of our noble
and true-hearted Governor. Com
paratively few will ever know the
tremendous pressure which was
brought to bear upon him to deter
him from signing this bill. AS he
has always done, he calmly and
dispassionately heard and weighed
all arguments and appeals on all
sides of this great question, and
then decided to act in the interest
of public morality and of a sound
and healty public policy. He has
done that which Is right, and no
act of his just and wise administra-
tion will commend him more warmly
to the appreciation of all right
thinking men than the act of sign
ing this bill.
Whenever it comes to a question
of right or wrong principle, the
people of Louisiana may be sure
that Governor Nichols will be
found on the side Of right.
The Legislative and executive
departments of our State have now
set the seal of their reprobatiOn
upon a great wrong. Will the iu-
dietary department sustain them
We believe it will.

satisfactory and beneficial, that the

Not Samuel j. TiIden.


Since the complete vindicatiOn Of
Samuel j. Tilden from all completely
in the democratic cipher dispatches
connected with the election returns
from Louisiana, Florida and South
Carolina, and the conclusive proof
of the republican frauds by which
the electoral votes of Louisiana and
! Florida were stolen from him and
given to Hayes, a great many de
mocratie Journals, chiefly i'll the
north. east and west, are insisting
on Tihlen's denomination by the
democratic party i'll 1880.
While we acknowledge that it
would be Just to Mr.. Tilden to re-
elect him to the presidency of which
he has been robbed by republican
thieves, we cannot forget that jus
tice to the democratic party, and
to the American people, is para
mount to the claims of Mr.. Tilden
or of any other man. If Mr.. Tilden
We're actually president, he would
he the best president we have had
for half a century, but his failure
to assert publicly his right to the
office while it was being stolen from
him, and even to protest against
the open and shameless robbery by
which the theft was accomplished,
can never be forgiven nor excused
by the democratic party. Even
the excuse of personal dignity will
not answer for his silence then.
There is such a thing as being too
dignified, and silence under outrage
sometimes invites a repetition of the
very outrage which that silence
scorns to notice. The leaders and
managers of the republican party,
never having had any conscience,
and having the, to them, perfectly |
satisfactory prestige of having sto-
len the presidency once, will only |
be too glad to steal it again if they
can. They must not be allowed to
steal it twice from SamuelJ. Tilden.
In the next campaign, with Grant |
as the probable republican candi-
date, the democratic party must
have a candidate for president who
knows its rights land knowing, |
dareS maintain them.'
