The West Carroll A fair.
Picayune.

The least consideration of the West
Carroll affair suggested that there was
an underneath history to be developed.
When the people of a nei ghbor hood or
parish rise up and commit such open
violations Of the law, and apparently
set at defiance the organized forces OF
society, there must be very strong
provOcatl0n.
The information thus far received
from that locality has been meagre and
confined merely to the details of the
outrages. The Picayune now has re-
liable correspondent on the field, who
will sift the matter to the bottom and
explain the cause of the outbreak.
The people of that parish have not
been noted for lawlessntss, and life and
property have not been considered as
less safe there than elsewhere in Lou
isana. What then conid have goaded
them to such high-handed acts OF
violence.
Our correspondent begins to fore
had been previously informed of it by
reliable parties here who were posted
concerning the affairs of that parish.
1t seems that this man Witkowski,
who is now flying from the wrath of his
neighbors, had the confidence OF the
Governor, or the powers that be; and,
as is the custom under our present sys
tenn of Ring Rule, he was made satrap
over West Carroll. He was the sole
arbiter of all political and public affairs
in that parish. He sent to Baton Rouge
the names of all officials to be appointed,
and their commissions came by return
mail. He had his own returning officer
to fix up the ballot boxes, his own regis
ter of voters, his own justices OF the
peace, his own police jury, his own
notaries public. He carried all their
designations in his pocket. In fact, he
was the lord and master of that po-
litical division of the State. Indeed, a
Persian satrap never had such absolute
sway. He could, without exceeding
the truth, exclaim II am the parish of
West Carroll. By deed signed and de-
livered own in fee simple title all the
political rights of the people OF my
principally, and owe allegiance to
neither law nor justice, but only to the
Mighty Ring that controls Louisiana"
1t was his ambition or his policy to go
officer sent him there. 1t may be, his
master at Baton Rouge ordered him to
go. Who knows7 His neighbor owed
him some money. He simply sent bis
teams over and took his neighbours cot
ton. A parsonage of such royal dignity
had no need of any process OF law.
Now it these things are true, what
wonder the people resorted to violence ?
If government was such q hIdeOus
mockery what protection was there for
them, but in a resort to the higher law {?
We do not say that the case is made out
yet as clearly as we have pictured it,
and we hope for the honor of the COM
monwealth aud the welfare of the Dem
ocratic party that there may be som,
migitating circumstances, but we fear
that this investigation will reveal a
state of political rottenness in Louisiana
affairs sufficiently to make every honest
citizen shuddeS.

Last Tuesday night, about 10 O'Clock,
Mr.. w. w. Wyatt who lives near Prud'-
homme City, and Mr.. William Love
who lives on Bayou Teche near Barry's
Landing, left the Bijoux coffee house
and went towards the Courthouse.
When about C.. Brands bakery, Wyatt
stabbed or cut Love under the lower
RIB on the left side. Love returned to
the coffee house, and procured medical
assistance, Wyatt was arrested and put
in Jail. 1t is not supposed that any vital
part is eat, and that the only danger
may be from Inflammation. So far be
is doing we'll. The two men give
different accounts Of the difficulty.
Wyatt says Love pushed against him
and he stabbed him. Love says when
they were drinking in the coffee house,
Wyatt was throwing about a fifty cent
piece, which be put in his pocket to
keep for him. When ON the street
Wyatt accused him of taking two dol
lars and half, which Love denied, and
said he took only fifty cents Wyatt
insisted that the sum was two dollars
and half, and Love persisted that i.
was only fifty cents; wlEereupon WYATT
stabbed him.
