Times Democrat

Ilnes-DemocrAt.
The vote of Louisiana is now very
nearly complete, and we can therefore
see what divergence it presents from
previous elections. 1t certainly shows
quite decided change from the vote
cast at the previous presidential cleo
tion. There is but little difference in
the totals, LOG, SCI this year against
l03,7Ol then, an increase of only
3l60, not enough to account for the
increase of population.
But the greatest difference is in the
voting by Congressional Districts, and
we have an opportunity of seeing the
effect of holly contested election in
bringing out full vote. The follow
ing is the vote cast by the two parties
in each of the Congressional Districts:
The Lake Charles echo. [volume] (Lake Charles, Parish of Calcasieu, La.) 1876-1898, 1884-11-15
KBLLOGgs B0gH.


We see it stated in our exchanges
that this defeated candidate now pro-
poses to contest the election Of Nh. Gay
IN this District on rarions grounds,
and he says some Of the frauds Of
which he complains were committed
in Calcasieu. Now, as for this parish,
we cannot understand why he should
say frnnds Of any kind we're commit
ted here. The contrary, the election
on the 4th was void Of any irregular.
ity, and we don't think there ever was
held, or ever will BE held. an election
in any part Of the United States which
was, or win be, faircr than that one.
But then, Mr.. Keliogg's popularity
Is that be has gone cranky on the idea
Of election frauds, and hence he is
completely enveloped with the idea
that all elections are fraudulent unless
they are terminable in the interest OF
himself and party. Ne, Mr.. Kellogg,
the election here was peaceful, haF-
monions, free, honest and fair in every
respect, and any attempt to make 1t
appear otherwise will meet with a
failure Before such an assertion
should have been made, we think you
should have consulted the vo1s Of
Calcasien first when you wonld have
seen that the Democratic vote Was
comparatively small, and that the Re
publican vote was the largest ever
cast in the parish; and further, that
the general defeat of the Republican
party all over the land, to be followed
by the proof that Democratic promo
tion to the control of the government,
paroehial, State and National, does not
mean the reinstatement of the negro,
nor his Acknowledgement; no sueh vote
can ever be cast by the Republicans
in this parish, district or Stats again.
The explanation of this large Re
publican vote in this parish is that we
have never known the negro to have
been more completely intimidated by
their Republican leaders. The in
timidation used was-Eote the Dam
oeratic ticket and you re-enslave your
selves, and no one at a distance could
appreciate what effect this threat had.
And Row, we want to say to the col
ored people of the State, that the Re
publicsns who have been using this
argument had no trifing considers
tion on their part, because now, the
only way that the Republicans can
see to get back into power IS by dis
frsnchising the eolOred people in the
South, in order to reduce the number
of Congressman from the Southern
States and electoral vote for President.
This idea has already been moOted
by eminent Republican leaders, and
VIC predict that an effort will now be
made TO put it into practice. But the
Democrats will put down any such at
tempt. They will do everything to
maintain the colored man in his pres
snt political rights, and they will be
convinced of the fact during the next
four years, How the Republicans will
propose to 60 about legislating them
ont Of their political rights, we can't
say, Just now; but that they will at
tempt it We are satisfied, and we would

that it will be tie on joint ballot,
the Senate having majority Of one

Editor Lake Charles Echo
Will you allow me the privilege of
dropping You a few lines to let you
know how we are getting on by this
time. Your correspondent New
Conner gave sou a few lines not long
since. BIT you know new corners
don't know much in regard 10 the
health, society, etc, Of the country. at
least / Judge go by his letter. New
Conner states that he has four children.
and they are all sick, and then he goes
on to state that his children, while at
play, have 10 have their mothers robe
around their bare feet to keep the
mosquitoes Of. So his little ones can
not be very sick, or they would not be
at play. He also states We have no
society, suppose he neant ne have
no whisky, or at least there is none
sold in the parish. We have good So
ciety, Mr.. Editor, but New Conner has
not been hero long enough 10 become
acquainted with the societies, and we
have the healthiest parish ii the State.
There is but one professional pilysi-
elan IN the parish, and be has to farm
to keep up. 1t is truese have had
more sickness this summer than usual,
onaecOuntpf tho extended dry weather.
Cotton is turaing out better than ax-
peeted. Oranges are doing well now.
and viii be pretty fair crop. Corn
ab0at al usual, enough made for home
consumption.
The election passed Of quietly,
nearly solid for Edward ] Gay. Will
liam Pitt aoasn't stand very high III
