CALLS FOR INVESTIGATION.

The Louisiana Standard demands that
the recent congressional election in the
Third Louisiana district be investigated
by congress. 1t says:
Whole parishes have been held under a
reign of terror. Thousands of voters have
been kept from the polls through fear of
their lives. Outrage, intimidation, and
even murder have been the instruments of
Democratic success. The case appeals to
congress for investigation. Congress will
be false to its duty, and false to itself, If
the investigation be not made.
This is the district in which Hon. S.
r. Peters, of this district took part in the
campaign and was present at the cleo
ton, after which he stated that he saw
no evidence of fraud or intimidation, or
words to that effect. Surely it cannot
be that the bulldozers and intimidators
down there were sufficiently adroit in
their methods as to work them success
fully and yet keep our wide awake and
astute representative in the dark SO COM
pletely as to make him believe every
thing straight. Yet such must have
been the case if the Standard statement
is true.

AMERICA AND GERMANY.

The reception accorded to Minister
Phelps by the Emperor William was
cordial beyond the usual diplomatic
amenities. Respect for the man, as well
as recognition of the envoy, appears in
the emperors greeting. As one of the
most brilliant of our younger race Of
statesmen, man of high culture, famil-
iaritv with affairs and enthusiastic
temperament, Mr. Phelps had already
won esteem and confidence at the Ger
Samoan controversy. His selection,
therefore, as an envoy was peculiarly
happy one.
In addressing the German sovereign,
moreover, Mr.. Phelps could recall many
reasons why friendship should exist be-
tween the great American republic and
the great Teutonic empire. Klnshlp in
blood, though not so close as that be-
tween America and England, is vet close
enough with the Germans to create many
mutual traits and sympathies. In the
period of the revolution, too, the value of
German aid to the patriot cause may be
gratefully remembered. Steuben, organ
ling the troops at Valley Forge, and
d kalb, leading desperate onslaughts on
Vrginian and Carolinian battle fields,
represented not only German valor aid
ing the cause of American liberty. but
the sympathes OF the famous German
warrior and monarch, Frederick the
Great.
At present there is absolutely no
shadow upon the peaceful relations of
the two countries. The settlement of
the Samoan question has left no tnge of
bitterness behind, but, while attended
by the satisfaction of every American
claim, has placed the diplomatic rela-
tons of the two countries upon a frank
and familiar footing. The fact that
portion of the population of
the United States is of German birth and
parentage must necessarily strengthen
the ties which bind the empire and the
republic. The great mass of the German
citizens of this country are lawabiding,
Industrious. loyal TO their adopted land,
and usefu! in many fields of industry
and enterprise; and these characteristics
lead the Americans to respect the nation
which is able to supply such excellent
to our western civilization.
If we cannot feel much sympathy for
the arbitrary government of the en-
peror, OF the despotic prepossessions and
methods OF Bismarck, intelligence and
progress OF the German people and their
in the field of intellect and
as we'll as in that of physical
proves. and cherish a hope that they
may one day be as politically free as
they are morally and physically strong.

FUN FOR THE REPUBLICANS.

We never saw, in all our experience, a
party, in any campaign, foundering like
the Democrats IF Sedgwick county.
They had put up campaign of false
issues. predicated on the conviction or
wild notion that the Republicans of
Sedgwick county were such big fools as
to swallow the bait. The fact that the
Republicans said nothing, the time not
having arrived to open the campaign,
was assurance doubly sure that they, the
Democrats. were going to capture the
greatest county in the state. Upon the
other hand, we never knew of less cause
of trouble Or less complaint in the Re
publican ranks. The Republicans of
Sedgwlck county know that if every
Republican in Sedgwick county was
solid for resubmission that that would
not bring it about, but that it would, at
this time, probably tend only to defeat
1t. They know, as does everybody
else, that resubmission must come
from general sentiment in its favor,
from all over the state, and that that
sentiment can alone be responded to by
the Republican party. And not only
that, but they further know that a state
wide sentiment cannot be formed in
day, and that Democratic county, or
county going Democratic, would be the
last county to be consulted on that or
on any other political question by the
Republicans in state power.
The surprise and chagrin of the Demo-
cratic bosses and ringsters, of this city,
over the awakening that the Republicans
never had any idea of surrendering their
party up to the Democrats is amusing,
their squirming as good as cheap
circus.
These bosses will squirm worse before
the campaign is concluded. They will
not only fail to capture the remainder
of the offices, but will be compelled to
give up those which they stole from the
Republicans two years ago.
