years and never drew anything to

dono the same thing for ten years.
with the same result. Both said
that they had paid in enough to the
lottery to place them in comfortable
circumstances.
They further said, that New Or
leans had paved streets, ETC., before
the lottery began; but that since
then the city has not been able TO
pave the streets or otherwise i'm
prove the city. They also said that
hundreds of servant girls would
spend all their earnings buying
tickets, and then many of them
would become so infatuated with the
gambling idea, that they would sell
their jewelry, clothes and even their
virtue, in order to get money with
which TO buy lottery tickets.
This demoralizing tendency pre-.

WHITE SUPREMACY.

In the Filth COu5feSsiohaa us
trict, the old question OF white
Democracy against white.washed
Democracy-or a heavy, fraudulent
negro vote, sugar coated over by a
few hundred white Democratic votes
again presented itself. fit be true
that white supremacy shonld prevail,
that the white mar should rule,
then the white man should stand ~
his own shoe leather and not on the
necks of a dozen negroes. A white
man'sFote ia Teusas should carry
with il 40 more weight than that
Of a white Democrat in Lincoln.
That Two hundred white men IN
Tensas should have more power,
more votes in convention, than two
thousand men in the hill parishes, is
unjust and undemocratic. This is
an evil we nave always decried, and
the following extract from the
Farmervi!le Gazette, shows that the
matter was not disposed Of in a very
satisfactory manner
THE hill parishes, representing
the white Simon pure Democracy OF
the District, very justly objected to
the fraudulent vote of some Of the
swamp parishes being adopted as
the basis of representation in the
nominating convention. But these
objections were as naught; they
were speedily overridden.
Now the question arises, must the
parishes, wherein honest election
returns are always made, again
enter into q convention composed
Of delegates many Of whom repres'
ent a false, fraudulent and fictitious
vote Ii is needless TO attempt
here to show that the purported
vote Of some OF the swamp parishes
is false. A simple glance at the
election returns in comparison with
the census statistics will show that
in Que instance at least-that OF
Concordia p~arish--the votes claim
ed to have been polled in 1885
exceed the actual number of voters
in the parish by about two hundred:
and it il cafe to estimate that ten
to twenty-five per cent Of the quail
fed voters never go to the polls.
Insn't this Of itself Sufficient evidence
