resolution, but no offer of going to the
polls and depositing their votes to give eff

danger of neutrality to the sugar interest,

as supporters of Blaine and Logan and
provide for political action Id conformity
with their interests and their principles.
The city militia do not relish the calls of
the State government for political service
in country parishes, endangering their sit
uations at home, and violatiye of their feel
ings of propriety. The Governor will be pc

New iberia kind, and if the request is IN
needed they will withdraw from the service
and organize as independent military bod

The autocratic dynasty planted in Baton

it reaches the inevitable point Of collapse.
Its appliances were all right when devoted
to the suppression of a Negro party, but we
white folks will not submit to them when
directed against ourselves. More anon.
