"Thomas came cayortin up to the

cluded to have little fun. We asked
him to take a drink, but he was too up

stone at him to see how he would run,
and he run sure enough. Then we
both ran after him, throwing stones at

A CARD.
PLA1sANCE, April 10, 1888.

LAUSANNE, ApIli I~y 1000
Editor ST. LANDRY DEMoCRAT:
Dear Sir-Please give space to this
communication. At political meeting
held at Plaisance on last Tuesday night,
one John Bennett, of Washington,
charged me- with having created the
riot of Sept. 28th, 1868. AS the said
Bennett knew that was absent from
the meeting and could not refute his
ISLANDERS, I take this opportunity of
telling him that the man who created
that riot, was present. and he knew it i;
and that man was F. j. D'avy that
after the beating of Mr.. Bentley, the
said D'avy sent ccuriers and notified
the colored people, and after the dis
turbance was commenced he fled like a
coward, and took refuge at his grand
mothers honse, from where he was TAX
en- out and shot and slightly wounded +;
and playing the dead o'possum, he was
hidden from danger, and leaving those
he had assembled to suffer.
Was Mr.. D'avy shot at the head of
his people, or was he hidden ?
suspending me from the Republican
party for fifty years.
simply wish to tell the people that
F. j. D'avy is the same one that is
credited with having betrayed the
Packard government in 1876 and that
he also, at the last election, scratched
the names of Messrs. j. L. Davis and
Commagere Thierry. candidates for
magistrate and constable in the eighth
ward.
In placing such a man as D'avy be-
fore the people, I simply say to him,
that he is toad that disgraces his own
warts, and that be is an enemy to the
community in which he lives.
Yoursitruly

A Mass Meeting Addressed by Lin
den e. Bentley

DoxALDsoNvILLE, La, April TO-
Especial. IA large and enthusiastic
Democratic meeting was held tonight
in the Knights of Labor Hall, where
was gathered together a vast concourse
of citizens, both white and colored.
Speeches were delivered by many prom
inent citizens of the parish. Among
the orators was Mr.. Linden E. Bently,
who made an eloquent appeal to the
colored people of the parish, advising
them to vote the Democratic ticket,
that would bring prosperity to our
State. Mr.. Bently then stated the rea-
sons why he is to-day Democrat that
he has changed because the times have
changed and parties are changd /; that
the old Republican party is not what it
used to be, but one that would bring
corruption and rnip to our fair land.

Brace Up.

You are feeling depressed, your ape
tite is poor, you are bothered with
Headache, you are fidgetty, nervous,
and generally out of sorts, aud want to
brace up. Brace up, but not with sti-
mulants, spring medicines, or bitters,
which have for their basis very cheap,
bad whisky, and which stimulate you
for an hour, and then leave yon in
worse condition than before. What
you want is an Alternative that will
purify your blood, start healthy action
Of Liver and Kidneys, restore your vi
tally, and give renewed health and
strength. Such a medicine you will
find in Electric Bitters, and only so
cents bottle at Hamilton & Bailey's
Drug Store. 8

TO THE coLoRED VOTERS.

In few days the election will come
off, that will settle the political status
of this State for four years. If Nichols
and good parish officers be elected, the
same peace and harmony that have pre-
vailed since the election of Nichols in
1876, will continue but if Warmoth be
elected, disturbances and probably vio-
lence will occur. ...a
Nichols was a good governor, and
gave satisfaction to the colored people.
Under the recent Democratic National
and State administrations the colored
people have had all the rights they pre-
viously had, and exercised them in
peace, which was not the case previous
ly.
Under the Warmoth and Kellogg ad-
ministrations the public debt of the State
was increased from fifteen MILLIONS
to over forty millions of dollars. The
taxpayers rebelled against such fnan-
cial management, and they will rebel
again. The Democratic party, which
comprises the mass of the taxpayers,
recently refused to nominate Gov. Nc
Emery for another term, because the
majority of that party believed that the
financial affairs Of the State had been
badly managed under his administra-
ton {; how, therefore, can it be expect
ed that they will stand another term of
grinding taxation and debt under War
moth? If Warmoth be elected, it will
be by the votes of the colored people.
The colored people owe him nothing,
not even gratitude. He went into the
Governors Office poor, and he came out
rich Gen. Nichols went in poor and
came out poor. If the colored people
elect Warmoth, they will gain nothing
but the ill-will of the taxpayers. If
they vote for Gen. Nichols, the present
state of peace and and good will
continue. While they have the physi-
cal right to vote as they please, they
have no moral right to saddle a bad
government on hetaxpayers, who have
to contribute all the money to support
that government.
When Gov. Nichols was inaugurated
in 1876, the colored people were not de-
prived of Il single right, and have not
been since. Even when State con-
stitutional convention was held, and
controlled by the Democratic party, pop
ular suffrage was not restricted. The
education of colored children has been
better.provided for under the recent
Democratic administrations, than it was
under Warmoth and Kellogg.
Gen. Nichols has been accused, in
certain quarters, of having been too
kind to the colored people
Promises amount to nothing in poll
tics. Voters who have the good of the
country at heart, should be guided by
the record; and the record of the War
moth administration is bad, and the
record of the Nichols administration is
good.
If the colored people vote to have
repetition of the Warmoth administra-
ton in Louisiana, they will sow the
wind that may develop into a whirl-
wind.
There is now no military despotism
at Washington to uphold hostile gov
eminent in Louisiana.

This community was profoundly
shocked Hast Thursday morning, ca
hearing of the sudden death of DR.. d
II. Littell at 11:4s a5 night. He had
made visits as usual, on Wednesday, to
patients about town and vicinity, and
seemed TO be in good health. He was
discovered in the yard, just after dark.
by his family, attracted BY his gfoans.
He could not speak. He had heart dis
ease, and had evidently fallen from q
sudden attack. Residas the loss to his
family and personal frsends, his death
has deprived large nnnhef sf fami-
aies OF a pilyaician who, after forty
years. practice among them, was thor
