The Knights Of Pythias, Of St.
Tammany parish, are considerably
worked up owe a notice in the FAR
xsR, published at Covington, in
which it gave the alleged orgaaiza-
ton Of . lodge of Pythians, agrand
send-on winding the puff up by
saying. ''the lodge is composed Of
some Of the best citizens Of the
parish and promises to be one Of the
finest in the State under this juris-
diction." The lodge is composed
Of negroes, and it is . well-kBown
fact that there is no such q thing
~ negro Pythians. They are not
even an Legitimate offspring and

Judge S ID. McEncry has for
mally accepted the regular Demo-
cratic nomination for Governor,
and his letter Of acceptance is an
able State paper in which he discuss
q al public issues in . clear and
fofcible manner. He opposes the
lottery ,deprecates the bitterness that
has been shown in the campaign,
and hopes the question will be set
tied, ~ it should be, in q quiet and
psaceable manner, the voters 10 be
governed solely by the dictates Of
their own conscience, it being .
question upon which men may hon.
estly differ, and which should not
be made . question Of party fealty.
He points out the danger to the
State from . split in the Democrat
ic party, and expresses unbound
ID faith in the principles Of Demo-
crazy, which are sure to win in the
coming election. We are unable to
give this learned and able public
in full, but will refer, to it
1t greater length in future issues.
It d replete with the teachings and
principles Of pure Democracy, from
to end, and will carry
CONSERVATION into the ranks or the
Third Party bGlters, who would de-
troy the Democratic party and
White supremacy in Louisiana, all
or the sake of q few Offices and

tiCiputed in the disgraCeful scenes at
Homestead after the surrender of the
Pnkertuns July 9th will be prosecuted for
aggravated assault and battery, highway
robbery, larceny, pocket picking and other
crimes and misdemeanors. The work of
securing the necessary evidence To convict
those engaged i'll the assaults on the Pink
crtons and the robbery Of the surrendered
men has been going on for some time, and
it is now SO far advanced that informa-
tions will be made IN few days and the
implicated persons will be arrested
Among thCm are several women who
were particularly active and aggressive
during the time the Pinkerton men ran
the gauntlet and after it in taking the
property of the men and hiding it, Assault
and battery and receiving stolen goods
will be the charges against these women.
This assault on the men was generally
condemned by the leaders Of the strikers
and especially BY the Analgamated Asso-
ciatinh and they have aided in securing
evidences against the persons engaged in
the assault, There is no sympathy for
them, either in the AmslgaInatcd As5ociR-
t,on OF cut of it, and at the time OF the as.
sault these towards were reprimanded BY
these who were trying 10 secure d
