What Makes Politics Disreputa.
BILE.


The mass meeting, on Saturday
last was but u repetition Of the
shameful acts and disgusting conduct
which, We are ashamed to say, is be-
coming quite frequent in the mass
meetings of our parish. Some Of
those who attend these meetings
seem to think hat the more bolster
oRs and undiguifed they act the
greater popularity they will have,
and the wiser they will seem. No
wonder that politics are looked upon
with disfavor, and that so many of
our best citizens seem to have lost all
interest in them. But boisterous
rowdyism was not the worst feature
Df the shameful performance on Sat
nrday double voting was engaged in
to a disgraceful extent. One un;.c-
quainted Will, affairs, and not know
ing the voting and counting capacity
OF some OF those present, would have
imagined that the days of radicalism
were upon MS again. We are not able
to say which party took the iniative
IN this dishonoIable business, but
this is not he first time it has been
INDUCED III, and we hope, if orr par
lsh is ever again cursed with one Of
these miserable political farccs called
mass meetings, that tl.r,e Will be
enong' honest people present to see
that there Is II list made of those who
vote, and thereby save to those who
wish t" be decent and honest at
least their self respect IT, hereafter,
any one s''"nld oppose the listing of
those VINO propose to vote, we think
it would DC strong presumptive evil
denee that he was Il repeater, and
would justify his expulsion from the
meeting on suspicion.

4 Plea for the ColOred Democrat
Natchitochcs Vindicator

The Democrats of this parish GER
talnly desire the success of their tick :
ct at the ballot box in December
next. That, We suppose, will not be
denied, yet we beg to say, some of
them are acting strangely to secure
thai end.
We hear it is said that cplored
Democrats have been excluded from
participation in the primaries in some
wards, and we know s..ch IL line of
policy strongly urged in others. How
any Democrat can reconcile this 20
policy, or fair dealing, or our past
promises, we are at a loss to nnder-
stand. Every person is IL Democrat
and entitled to participate in all pre-
urinary organizations and votes of
his party as such, who voted tn. tick
ct in 1873, and has not since abau-
doned or given NOTICE of bis purpose
to abandon the Democracy. No
other evidence of feaIty can or
should be required, and that is the
universal rule of the Democratic party.
10 exclude any Democratic voter
from participation in Il primary is a
folly, the result of which can only he
disastrous. If we have won the col
oted pan to us, as we claim, we have,
1t Is oar duty, as it is our sound
policy, to allow him full, fair and
free Foice in all onr deliberations.
We were 10 dead earnest when we
made our promises to the colored
man; and we intend to stand by them.
We believe the mass of the Demuc-
racy in this parish to be of our opin-
iop and we feel assured they will in
sist upon encouraging the colored
voter TO continue his loyalty to par.
ty, which, we contend is really and
truly the party for all men.
The Donaldsonville chief. [volume] (Donaldsonville, La.) 1871-current, 1879-10-11

The statement then made cameifrnm
the White House. From the CON
Guiding statement of the following
paragraph in the semi official eEve-
ming STIR Of this city, it would seem
that Mr.. Hayes has repented of his
promise, and wanted a pledge from
tlesGeneral, in advance, that he will
refuse the office. Here is what the
Wl,ite-House now says through the
Star:
There is bit Of gossip atloat to the
effect that President Hayes as an honor
to General Grant has made up his mind
to formally tender the English mission
| to him, and pursuant to that inclination
the President will invite him to take the
mission upon his return to Washington.
The President, according to the same
authority, does not anticipate that Gen
eral Grant will accept the TRUST, but it
will be offered to him nevertheless as a
mark of honor both to General Grant
and the English nation.
The people Of our country have
reason to be- proud of the colored
schools at the nation's capitol. The
trustees appointed by the President
are representative Men of both the
white and colorea race. This board
has general oversight of the schools.
Mixed schools are not allowed. The
colored schools occupy some Of the
finest buildings and are under the
control of colored superintendent
and an efficient corps of near one
hundred teachers. The fact is dem
onstrated beyond cavil that as teach
ers they have an aptness and grace
OF communication in teaching second
to no people in the world. Our sister
city Baltimore is just now in a dis
turbed condition over the subject.
The colored people are demanding
that they be allowed colored teachers
in the public schools of their race,
and point to the success of the schools
at the Capitol as a reason for the
change, and insist that as long as the
color line is drawn, the cOlOred peo-
pie should have the supervision Of
their own schools.
The headquarters of both the ma
tional Republican and Democratic
committees are oesieged with political
friends anxious to learn something Of
the probable outcome of the Ohio
election. Yours truly,
SENTINEL.

Is 1853, or G,778 less, has t,co-one

The fourteenth, with 17,46l; if
teenth, 23,998; sixteenth 1886, and
seventeenth with 26,292 have each
one Senator; yet the seventeenth has
700 more than tile twelfth which has
two.
The nineteenth with 46,698 is given
two twentieth, 81 ,zl4; the twenty
first, 5000, entitled to three, ia only
allowed two Senators, or the same as
the twenty second, with 54,77l, and
the twenty third, 1886. The TWEEN
ty-fourth, 17,94G; twenty fifth, 49,
600, and twenty sixth, 22,396 have
each one Senator.
Under conditions of perfect free
dom Republicans might elect 81 out
Of the 26 Senators, despite the gerry
mander; but rs seven districts to
elect nine Senators are conceded to
the bulldo1ers, IL is the probable Re
publican maximum in the next SEN
ate-Or one third.
Apportioning SO Representatives,
would give one for each 74l7, and
fraction over 1908 Of population.
The parish of Orleans, entitled to
26 is given %. The first, fourth and
sixth election districts, given one,
shonld have two each. The popula-
ton Of the first is 1868, of the
twelfth, 1904, yet each will elect
one.
