To ithe Taxpayers of the Parish Of
TerIebUnne.
l beg to call your attention to the
Courthouse, now being erected lin the
town of Houma, In my opinion it
will be a very weak AID short lived
building. l cannot say who is to be
censured, the contractors or the Police
Jury. If the con tractors are carrying
out their agreement faithfully they are
not to blame. If the Police Jury re-
ceived and adopted the plans and
specifications, now being developed,
then they have committed a grave
blGnder. / will mention some grave
objections to this building /; objections
which / believe will be sustained by
some of our able local architects and
builders, such as Messrs. Orr, Emile
Naquln, Felix Daspit and Henry Labit.
TIE general design presents no claim
to strength, solidity or durability.
There should have been used one
fourth more material throughout the
buildings all,the walls are to thin anu
the timbeIs TOO light for such a large
structure. The execution of the work
is unsatisfactory aud unreliable. Dry
bricks are layed in the walls. Inster-
stices are left in the walls that should
be filed with mortar. The union of
the new and old work is very imper-
feet. and will sOOn show cracks. The
walls only show well outside. They
are not solid, or lined up inside. l am
sorry to say that a portion of this
building fell before completion. This
portion was a toy pOrtico, erected on
u scientific prin ciples, rather on the
balloon order, with very little to hold
it up. l do not believe the taxpayers
will eve getthe valued $l7. SOC. 0OIIGO

THE ELECTION AND THE
OUTLOOK.

All the indications are that the Eos
ter ticket was, yesterday, by s%tuffinl
ballot boxes, counting the negro votes
for that ticket, and kindred means
elected, "GOd save the mark ~
No candid man, we assume, will
deny that, in past elections the negre
vote of the State has been practically
nullifed in this and other states, where
Inc negro hOrdes Outnumber the white
population. The defense for such a
procedure, and IN entirely sufficient
defense, was that the domination of the
negro majority was a menace to the
civilization and christianity of the
State, to its business and all other ems
lightened interest. In favor of that
line of action the white people have
stood together as one man. That policy
was simply q common resistance to
forces that meant common ruin.
1t Is entirely correct in morals as it
is in accordance with the practices of
man kind to resist, by every means,
the invaders of our homes, the des-
trOyers of our institutions, to spoil the
enemy, and defeating him, follow him
into his own land with fire and sword.
But these methods, justiitable, aye,
commendable in dealing with a fore
ign enemy, when they are practiced
between man and man for the purpose
of suppressing freedom of political ac-
ton, sink to the levol of those of the
h~ighwaymen and the sneak thief.
What the united white people did to
defeat Kellogg and Packard, and to
elect Wilt, McEnery and Nichols.
to defend and perpetuate our civiliza-
tiOn.-the Foster faction have done to
defeat their fellow Democrats and set
to up q dynasty of fraud,
For twenty years W. have appealed
to the white people to ignore all their
political differences and stand solid
against the living threat of negro and
carpet-bag domination. We have.
time and again, told u fellow citizens
that any division between the whites
of Louisiana, before the negro should
be DISTINGUISHED, would result in a
scrambled between the rival white
for the negro vote; that in such
event, candidates would associate
with the negroes upon terms of social
equality, would drink with them, gam
BILE with them, visit with them; thatin
short time all decent men would be
driven out of politics, leaving govern
to the meanest classes of men
and finally that society, business, and
every human thing would be degraded
and Louisiana become a cess-pool of
corruption aud in object of contempt
lnd disgust 10 the world
The white people have divided. The
irst result is, that the negro vote has
