The NTarshaIship of Louisiana.

A dispatch to the Louisville Courier
Journal from Washington, dated July
18, says:
The appointment Of Reuben B.
Peasants, United States Marshal for
the Eastern District of Louisiana is sig
nifcant Peasants is violent and
aggressive leader of the anti-Burke and
Eustis faction of the Democracy of
that State, as we'll as bitterly opposed
to what is know as the State or Regular
Democracy. His appointment was en-
tirely unexpected and fell like bomb
in the Democratic camp. In making
this appointment the President has an
nOunced in an unmistakable manner
his intention to stand in with the Ran
dali Gibson side of the party.
The. appointment of Peasants re-
moves well-knOwn and familiar figure
from Louisiana politics, namely, Gen.
the country as MY Dear Pitkin.n Gen.
Pitkin arrived in Washington, Monday.
and called upon the President Tuesday.
He brought with him several papers
from prominent citizens, stating that he
had run his Office in the interest of the
people and not politicians. He also
told the President that while he would
like to keep the office, still, if the Pres
ident desired, he would resign iI1medi-
ately. The President took the papers
of Gen. Pitkin, said he was glad to see
him, and bid him good day. Gen. Pitkin
went off feeling like he was solid with
the President, and would keep his place
until bis time expired. The next day
he gasped for breath when he read in
the paper that he had been removed.
In talking to friend, Gen. Pitkin
said, that for the life of him lie could
not understand the precipitate action
of the President in removing him. Your
correspondent can, however. Gen. Pit
kin is Republican, and that is reason
enough for him to be bounced. Then
the removal of Gen. Pitkin stops all the
assertions of the Republicans that the
President would faithfully adhere to
the tenure of Office act, for the removed
man had but eight months to serve, and
it is understood that there were no
charges against him. Indeed, this act
is the most encouraging to Democrats
of any in the way OF removals vet exc
cuted by the President. 1t simply sig
mites that he dares to remove anybody
he pleases.
