Mr.. Willard Brown, VINO, Though a very

ment. Mr.. Brown net Or. Ayeling and

trouble brewing. He was not left long
in doubt respecting the cause, he was
told that his friends were Socialists, that
they were in this country 10 promulgate
their doctrines. and that, though they
we're cultivated gentlemen, their presence
Was not agreeable.
Inc German Socialists will not get into
that club house again. The doorkeeper

Aro'her legislative ticket is before the
Ieop Of ibis county, ara il is there 2:
TIE request RI 4 very large 4lL. o=r O.:

the consent Of tie Democratic Executive
Committee. what TIE MORNING NEWS
Appreciated before the mass meeting y rs
held has occurred. The Democracy mas
refused TO submit 70 the dic:atiOn Of
the Knights OF Labor. On the
morning of tie day OF tie mass
meeting the MORNING NEWS warned the
KIN gifts OF Labor, AID all others not
recognized as Democrats, that the d no
cratic party Of the county would not to-
crate any interference with its affairs.
This warning was not heeded. The
knights of Labor attended the meeting,
announced a ticket. which, it was stated,
had been adopted at a caucus OF their
members, nominated it, and then passed
resolutions which were nspicuously
Knights Of Labor resolutions.
Can it be justly claimed, under the cir
cumstapces, that the mass meeting was
Democratic one, and that it voiced the
wishes Of the Democracy OF the
county; or course not. II the
knights who are Democrats had
attended the meeting simply as Demo-
Gratis and controlled the nominations the
meetings. action would have been bind
ing. That, however, they did not DO. an
organization Of which they are mem bers
settled upon ticket, and then attended
the meeting called by the Democracy and
nominated it. Those Of the organization
who are Democrats were not willing u
trust the Democratic party. They placed
their secret organization above their
party, with the determination Of making
their party carry out the will Of their
secret organization.
It would have been strange indeed If
the Dem ocracy had submitted TO this rrO-
cramme. 1t is true that there ought to
have been protest when it became ap-
parent that the control OF the mass meet
Ing was being taken by another orgsniza-
ton, but because there was none il
doesn't follow that the Democracy was
estopped from asserting its rights % an
other occasion.
Nobody questions the right Of the
knights Of Labor to nominate candidates
for the Legislature and TO support them.
1t would even have been proper for them
to have asked the Democrats to indorse
their ticket. 1t wasn't right, however,
for them TO capture the Democ ratio mass
meeting and indOrse their TICKET and res
Olutions with the name OF Democracy.
II is not to be wondered at that tie De-
mocracy has resented the use OF its name
In any sucb way.
The voters now nave two tickets TO
choose from. The Knights Of Labor are
in just about the position they would
have occupied had they put out their
ticket and not attempted to make the
Democratic party adopt it as its own.
Doubtless many OF the Knights will sup
port 1t. Democrats, however, who be-
lieve in maintaining the integrity OF their
party and In preserving 10 il the absolute
control OF its affairs, and WAC believe
that IL can do more for the protection Of
the interests and rights OF all classes of
people than any other organization, po-
Iitical or otherwise, will support the
ticket that has the sanction of the Demo
cratic Executive Committee.

Bloodthirsty OmciaIs.

The threatened duel between the two
New Orleans Democratic cbieftains
seems to have excited considerable inter-
est throughout the country. One OF
them is Mr.. Henry Kernochan, a sugar
planter, and at present naval Off Ger OF the
port of New Orleans, and the other is SIR.
Wash Marks, the uperIntendent Of the
Customs Warehouse.
According TO the cores pendent of the
New York Star they are both past mas
ters Of chin music, and it is probable that
II they thought more and talked less they
would not have reached hard words and
blows.
The trouble grew out OF a remark made
by Marks that certain gentleman, a
candidate for Congressional honors, was
not loyal TO the party, because, on one
occasion not long ago, ne had bolted a
nomination Of the regular Democracy.
KernOchan accepted this remark as re-
ilecting upon himself, because he was
one OF the boilers of that convention. 1t
was because OF mis- course at the conyen-
ton In question that Senator Eustis, of
Louisiana, severely criticised the Pres-
dent for appointing him naval officer.
Marks and kernochan got into an angry
alteration, and the latter 50 far lost mis-
temper as to strike the former in the face.
What followed is thus described by the
stars correspondent: M arks at once
retired to his tent, where, surrounded by
the leading warriors OF the clan. be
straightway penned the dreadful def and
then set calmly about the grinding of his
sword and the oiling OF various other en-
gines OF carnage. When KernOchan re-
ceIved the Hateful summons he called his
braves together and raised so loud and
shriil a cry for blood that all the welkin
shuddered for miles and miles around.
All night long there was running to and
fro and conferences with surgeons and
undertakers. These noisy preparations
for bloOdshed must, in fact, have reached
the ears Of the authorities, for the follow
ing day both the fOaming giadiators were
seized and borne, despite their struggles
and pite0us pleadIn2s TO be let at each
other, to the vile durance of the police
court, and there bound over like two com.
mon scolds to keep the peace"
This was, of course, a very unseusa-
tional ending OF what promised to be a
very tragic affair, but in view Of the fact
that duels are regarded as something
that belong to the past, in New Orleans
as well as elsewhere in this country, the
two political chieftains Will be thought
none the less of because they We're pre-
vented from meeting under the historical
! oaks in the lower City Park
with the view of making vacancies
in their respective offices. There
are some politicians in New Orleans who
are so anxious for Office that they proba-
bly, condemn the police authorities for In
terfering with the plans of the warllke
officials, but the good people of that city
would rather endure the chin music of the
the officials while longer than have the
sward OF their park stained with the
blood OF either or both of them.
