THE BOLTERS RECEIVE NO
ENCOURAGEMENT. !!

ENCOURAGEMENT.
The flatness with which the bolt.
ing nominations have fallen upon the
popular mind must be apparent to
everyone who keeps up with cur.
rent events. In no portion Of the
State has there been any enthusiasm,
except possibly in Franklin, Sena-
tor Fosters home. Even the Anti
leaders and journals appear 10 feel
that the popular mind b against
them. But the leaders themselves
placed the cause they represent in
the hopeless position It is. :: They
should have known that . boltins
ticket would not be sanctioned il
Louisiana, where negroes OWtnun,-
Der the whites. by the great major
ity Of Democrats And then tle
manner of the bolt demonstrated bad
judgment. Men like Herman. Cum
ningham and others made every ef-
fort to get the combined opposition
in the regular convention and to
have them make their demands
there. contending that II an anti
plank was refused they would tlei,
have question Of principle upon
which to appeal to the people.
But. no. Politicians like Foster and
Caffrey, who were out for the Gov
ernorship AMI other Offices. would
not have it SO. The result IS tlleis
journals aud orators had TO stay
out by claiming regularity "n the
ground that ''cllairman" Lanier call
ed the trump" to order. This
ruse soon fell of its own weight,
and now they are harpiug on an
other canard of a like nature. They
continue to make the false states
ment that they offered to give NJ
all the offices il an anti plank
proclaimiDg death to the lottery
was inserted in the platform by the
regular convention. When nailed
to the facts, which are that no such
proposition was made to the regu.
lar convention. or for that matter,
to the McEnery caucus, they wrig-
gle by saying that such a PROPOSE
ton was made to . committee
which called upon Chairman Lanier
on a different mission, and tina!
Mr.. J. ID. Houston Of Orleans re-
fused it. As a matter Of fact, Mr..
Houston told the committee headed
by Mr.. Don Gallery. frankly and
plainly, that his committee had NO
power to treat On the question pre-
scented. but that the proposition
would have to go before the regu-
lar body for consideration. The
members of the McEnery commit
tee were then asked their individu-
al opinions as to whether the Nc
Emery delegates would forego their
Instructions for white primaries;
in order to appeaee the minority !.
and they replied that they thought
not. The gentlemen were nasa raj
ly Of the opinion that . majority Of
delegates would not abandon speci-
iic instructions to please . minority.
AS a matter of fact, in the light Of
events since. it can be plainly. seen
they would not, but SO anxious to
bolt were the minority leaders that
they took no chances in the way of
letting the regular convention pass
upon their ultimatum. They lacked
themselves up in the Statelloase and
completed every arrangement for a
bolt before the hour set for tie as
Of The regular convention.
The people cannot he blinded ~ to
.hese facts, and SO far rs the Foster
ticket goes. that il doomed to de-
feat. The real fight will be be-
tween McEnery and the Repabli-
cans.
