Take Your choice.

An Anti organ declares that the
lottery aad Samuel McEnery are
synonimog9" Thai is bad for the
Ants. AT was proved, by occular
demonstration, last night, if the lottery
and Sam McEnery are SYNONYMOUS.
then are the lottery, Sam McEnery and
the people of New Orleans synoni-
nous terms. The organ is iucohercnt
The correct statement is this: the
unity OF the Democracy of Louisiana,
white supremacy, State rights, and the
nomination of Samuel Douglas Me-
Emery, constitute grand policy, tho
triumph OF which promises the pros
perity of Louisiana, white supremacy
and solid South for the National
Democratic ticket in 1892, On the
other hand, Adams, the Ocalaite; In
fanticide Gunby; Hannibal He4-Flre-
Stubbs, the railroad wreeker-Farrar
the, good lord we can't mention it
in print; Foster the weeping saint OF
st. Mary, Jack tho statistician of the
Imagination school; Cunningham, the
saint who prefers paralysis to lottery,
ed omne genus the Lafayette combine,
the Sabine plan, the Lafonrehe method,
etc, these are all SYNONYMOUS and
what do they mean? Why, they mean
the rupture of the Democratic party,
"nigger" domination, the surrender OF
the State to the 0calaites and the Re-
publicans and all this to beat the
lottery amendment.
Every Democrat in Louisiana, not
withstanding the heroes of Sabine, and
the christian saints who want to sub
stitute violence and murder in civil
government for the will of the people,
can take his choice. This is free
country, and "by the Eternar' the
majority will rule. Now hoop mp your
little old campaign of abuse and
braggadoeio. O. States.
The Louisiana Advance PRO Adams)
in speaking of the action of the State
Central Committee at its recent meeting
in New Orleans, says: "The Advance
has maintained all along, in discussing
thSposition of the 'Autis for Office
only that the Anti Lottery leaders
wanted to keep the lottery question at
| Issue for personal purposes, and all OF
this 4 am holier than thou is merely
the political trick of the damagogue to
| catch votes. The remnant of the old
Nichols pot.house politicians have fail
ed so signally to give US the strong and
vigorous administration promised dur
| ing the last campaign, when they she'd
crocodile tears for The manned hero,
aud won the slortiived confidence OF
| the public; that public was duped.
They were suckers, and their heads
were accordingly bumped. A capital
deal to catch on to the Anti Lottery
fad, with which they again seek to
make a cats-paw of the people. The
political shysterB want Office. They
are howling on tho Anti-Lottery trail
because they want TO pose as great
moral luminaries. They tried to play
the Farmers Union. The Farmers
Union turned the table and played
them. They are nov silent They
have on their stndying cap to see how
they can set aside that Lafayette com
bine. None of the Anti papers shout
for Adams They do not want the tall
sycamore of the Felieians' How can
they trick the farmers and yet pacify
them is the question that appears to be
agitating the minds of the 'antis fol-
Office only The Farmers Union peo-
Pile are getting restless under the sus-
pieion that the Lafayette compact il
not indorsed by certain Anti leaders
from whom cash is expected for cam
paign purposes. The farmers want q
straight, square deal. aud hearty sup
/ port for Mr.. Adams.
