Tie men of worth to a own or community
are those who forget their own selfish ends

thefr IDEAS to push all projects calculated to
huild M the town and enhance its impor
tance. The enterprise and push Of a commit
nity constitutes the foundation of it's perma-
nent success. A town may as well prepare
for its own funeral as to become indifferent TO
the enterprise in its midst. Men who come
to town to make ii their future home, who
cannot look far enough before them TO see
that money placed judiciously in a public
enterprise will be increased an hundred Tod
in the appreciation of their property, are 70

Welsh Crescent When the Nichols crowd
by a desire to humiliate their enc
mics and led on by their W ambition to 90
something to win the plaudits OF the people,
failed to catch the willy Burke, is it any won
der that he was not detected by McEnery,
who esteemed him as a friend !? 1t must be
aforementioned, too, that at the time OF Nc
Enery's connection with Burke the major vas
a prince in the estimation OF q majority OF me
peopIe of Louisiana, but his star was on the
wane and lie had fallen under the ban OF sus-
picion when the Nichols crowd took him I'D
hand and shined up his spotted reputation by
giving him a coat of investigation gliding
The people of Louisiana have never held NC,
! Emery accountable for Burke's stealings, and
they have been charitable enough to overlook
the failure of Governor Nichols to catch the
thief. They have been just to McEnery and
In had grace now from the Nichols crowd to
revive this odious era in Louisiana's history
and attempt, by false statements and faulty
reasoning, to cast the blame of it upon a man
who is above reproach. Such a proceeding
must recoil upon the men engaged in it.

Shreveport Times: The outrageous and
scurrilous attempt to blame Governor Nc
Emery for Burkeis shortage, is as false as it is
infamous, and will not have any weight with
any man of honor or fairness. 1t will only re-
bound upon the heads of those attempting
the line of the defamer and v%illiier. Had
Governor McEnery been half as bad as the
scurrilous attacks of some of the (so-ca1ledl
Adams organs claim, it would be strange that
Governor Nichols should have appointed him
to the supreme bench of the State @ position
of the highest dignity and honor, one which
in it's position stands far above all partisan
passions, far above the executive office, mas
much 8 it represents the highest appeal OF
the people, the bulwark of civilization-the
law. II Judge McEnery was corrupt, if he
had winked at Burke's defalcation, as the
Adams papers insinuate, then must they trebs
" damn the man who placed him upon the
| supreme bench. Such, however, was not the
case. Governor Nichols knew that 5, D.. Nc
Emery was a true, upright and an honorable
man ; q man fitted by legal lore and intellec-
tual qualities to fill the ~position-as such he
appointed him, and this very act should in it
self be a refutation of the diseordant howls
and snarls of the venemous organs which have
eudeavored to assail him.
