The Election i'll New Orleans.

Our anti fellow citizens have been
assiduously endeavoring to create the
belief that the McEDery advocates, and
the supporters of the lottery amend
ment, are opposed to the submission OF
the latter to the decision of white pri-
marlrS. We are in possession of Il tick
ct, such as was voted in New Orleans
for The election Of delegates to the state
nominating convention, aud it reads us
follows:
vote to instruct the delegates for
whom | cast this ballet to ,ote rs /, nnit
! (accOrdlDg 10 The sense OF ii ma. nrity of
their nnmber) upon all questions pre-
sented before the stat; nominating con
vention of the Democratic party of Lou
Islana to h" led at Baton Rouge on
December 10Th, 1891. Except that such
! delegates are specially instructed
lst. To vote as u unit for the uomi-
nation OF ). ID. McEnery, to he Governor
Of Louisiana.
"2i. To vote as Il unit in favor of II
resolution to submit the lottery reve-
nue. amendment TO white plmaries.'
We hope there may be no more quib-
/ bling-uo more lying-about the will
/ lDgness Of the friends of Gov. McEnery
and the supporters of the revenue
| amendment to abide the decision of
both, by white primaries. 1t has been
the habit of the secret, oath bound con-
federates known as ants to deny that
the supporters of the revenue amend
ment do favor the submission of the
question to white primaries. They as
sert they have Il majority among the
Democrats. Now if there be an ounce
OF honest political purpose among their
iaU- U-girers-commOnly called leaders,
let them, for decency sake and for all
becoming respect for set-erident truth,
confess tie directness of the purposes
OF the pros. We dare them to accept i'll
good faith, the proposition to submit to
white primaries. But we do so with the
oath bound. Throw off your dastardIy,
secret conspiracy against honest, plain
dealing Democracy. We do not lceog-
nize those who swear in secret to obey
self-constltuted leadels-Who owe any
allegiance to separate organizations to
which all white voters are not freely ad-
mltted-we say we do not, and the
masses wHl not recognize any such
persons as Democrats. They are out of
the party, and will not he allowed to
have any say in its deliberations. They
have lett it to form other combinations
and consplracies, and there they must
stay until they openly ren0unce them
as undemGcratIc, aud come back to the
old party from which they have been
drcOyed by a few office seekers.
We know no bodies iD party measures |
but those which are devoted crclHsirely |
to party principles. Democracy owes |
nothing to secrecy, and the party as
such will resist it to the bitter end.
