UNFORTUNATE HOMICIDE.

On last Saturday night, at dane
ing party at the house of Mr.. Donas
Lemoine, in ward six, near the hour
of midnight, disturbance occurred
which resulted in the killing of one
man and the wounding of another.
When the fuss began the women and
some of the men went to the house of
Nolbert Lemoine, some Two or three
hundred yards away, and Mr.. Ethel
bridge Smith and others followed
them and renewed the difficulty, which
seems to have been resented by Mol
bert Lemoiue, who confronted the par
ties with a shot gun, and in the fracas
which ensued Smith inflicted pistol
flesh wound on Lemoine, who in turn
fired a load of small shot into Smiths
stomach. The unfortunate Smith,
who is hardly twenty years old, lin
gered for two days and then died.
The wound received by Lemoine is
not considered dangerous, although it
is ugly and painful [Colfav Chron-
icie, Nov. 20.

One or two of our exchanges
seem disposed to cast invidious rehec-
tons upon Col. A. w. Crandall be-
cause of his earnest outspoken and
manly support of McEnery at present,
he having been in favor of Nichols
during the last campaign. 1t is no
fault of Gel. Crandall's that Gov. Nj
cholls as Democrat, has proven an
inter and complete failure, and that
the Democracy of Louisiana in lis
present desperate straits (superinduced
by the Nichols Office seeking horde)
requires the fearless, determined ser
vices of Samuel D. McEnery to save
it from destruction. In line with oul
highly esteemed Democratic friend
Crandall will be found thousands Of

The RIGHT SPIR1T.-There was

The RIGHT SPIR1T.-There was
grand gathering Of the Workingmen's
Democratic Climb at Shreveport re-
Gently, at which patriotic men from
various Red River parishes attended
and expressed their sentiments. The
soundness and genuine character of
the Democracy expounded on this in
terestiug occasion may be judged by
the following report, from the Shreve-
port Times Of the remarks of lead
ing Anti:
"Hun. John R. Land was first call
ed upon and delivered stirring and
eloquent address. He first spoke of
his support Of s. D. McEnery in 1888
and his acquiescence in the nomina-
ton made. In 1892 be would sup.
port the Democratic nominee, he he
McEnery, Adams or Foster. He was
an antl-lotteryite, but while an Anti
he was a Jeffersonian Democrat. lie
was not an Anti to the extent of pre-
ferrinu negro supremacy to the lotte-
Try; he was not an Anti to the extent
of resorting to the musket or bayonet;
he was not an Anti to indulge in the
villification and abuse of those who
differ with him. Men differ on many
questions. He deprecated making the
lottery political question; he feared
it would be made wedge to d,srup,
the party. He appealed to the con.
servative element to stand by the De-
mocratic party. He believed in eau
casian supremacy. First, last and all
the time be was 10 favor of white
mans government and the white mans
domination. His eloquent address was
heartily applauded."
1t is pleasant to note that the FIRE
eaters and revolutionists are rapidly
being sent to the rear; that the lead
ership of the campaign is passing into
the hands of mon who realize wha,
course of action and line of policy
will best subserve the true interests o.
Louisiana and who will work out the
results accordingly. New Orleans

AN INVITATION TO ADAMS.

The Republicans of Louisiana "be.
gin to feel their oats" The dissen.
sion in Democratic ranks, which they
consider irreconcilable, has ''put them
in high feather" Just pernse this In
vita,iun to "the tall sycamore of the
Felicianas" to come in and cline de
gang" 1t is from the New Era, edi.
ted by colored men, and the official
organ of the Republican party -
"The Democratic primaries in this
city resulted in u complete victory for
the McEneryites, that faction OF the
Democratic party carrying every ward
in the city. The result, we must con.
fess, was a surprise to us, as we did
not believe that McEnery was as
strong here as his sanguine followers
always claimed he was, neither did we
think that tho Adamsites would poll
such small vote, especially after the
claims made through their organ. If
its facts as to the state of mind of De-
mocrats in other portions of the State
are not more reliable than its informa-
ton as to the Democratic voters ofthe
city of New Orleans, it will immedi.
ately lie assumed that McEnery will
he the nominee of the Democratic con.
vention.
IF this latter contingency should
happen will the Adamsi9es name their
candidate and 60 before the people,
or will they support our candidate for
Governor We assure both factions
of the Democratic party that the Re-
publicans propose to nominate a full
State ticket and make an energetic
canvass of the State, and that neither
side need hope for Republican sup
port. With the Democracy divided
We have every reason to claim that a
fair count will be accorded the Re.
publicans, in which event there is no
doubt as to the election of the Repub'
lican ticket"
OF course the significant phase Of
the above lies in the official assurance
given that the Republican party will
put out full State ticket which, Of
course, will be supplemented by par
ish tickets, as all these officials mus,
be voted for together. Is it not
very natural conclusion the NeW Era
draws, therefore, that Republican
chances of victory are very fair
should the bolt at Baton Rouge sc
broadly limited at be really made
With two white parties in heated op
position, and a negro majority through
out the State again banded togethe
with the hope Of official control, thu
work of white reconstruction, achieved
during the past decade, might be yer!
quickly and disastrously overthrown
1t is incredible to suppose that tn
anti. McEnery minority will be car
ried by combination Of ambition ant
prejudice to any such desperate ex
IRENE. And even though few lead
ers essayed SO reckless venture j
may be set down as certainty tina
! the honest mass of their present fol
lowing, to whom good government
and low taxes are a vital necessity
wonld not follow them long or far il
