a call to take any action in select
ing delegates to the convention.
When Mr.. Domec, president of
the parish committee was notified OF
the date to select delegates it was
too late to ccnvoke the committee |
to take measures to call a conven-
ton of the people or order pri-
mary, and the only thing he
co1,d do, was to Gel. a meeting of
the committee, and that commit
tee, not M. Domec, selected the
delegates, aid We believe that
every one of the delegates select
ed by that committee is as pure
and sincere in his Democracy as
the editor of the Reveille or any
one who may think like him.
Mr.. Domec is foreigner it is
true, but he has availed of the
privilege given him by our own
laws, to become a citizen, and we
believe naturalized citizen may
be as good as a native one, and
our Legislators who passed the
naturalization laws we're of this
opinion, as the laws still remain
on our statute books. Therefore,
Mr.. Domec is a citizen and only
enjoys the privilege given him
by the laws of Louisiana.
The Reveille says that Mr.. Do
mec lis a strange msn-strange
Understanding from a foreign
country, without any natural
right, to be allowed to plan, con-
coct and conspire against the uni
ty and integ rity of the Democra-
tic party?
This charge Mr.. Domec is un-
doubtedly able to answer for him
self, but we have no knowledge Of
its accuracy; but we know that
Mr.. Domec called on the men,
bers of the Democratic committee
of this ward through the telephone
and consulted with them before
taking any action in the premises.
1t is not the purpose of the
MESSENGER to come to the defense
of Mr.. Domec, we believe he can
do that himself; but as member
of the committee over which Mr.
Domec presides, We say and We
maintain that it is the only Demo.
cratic parish executive committee
of this parish. The other (Mc.
Emery has no right to exist, and
we believe the gentlemen who
were members of that committee
are of the same opionion, and re
cognize that their organization il

Not Strange At All.

The Reveille again comes to
the front and consures MIR. Jean
Domec, the president of the De-
mocratic parish executive COM
mittee of st. Marish parish.
It is true that parish commit
tee was formed by the people on
the 20 day of November, 1891, or
at least the people voted for the
president of the convention held
on that day, but the balance OF
the proceedings of that conven-
ton, including the formation of
the parish committee had been
made before hand in room at
the Bourdier Hotel, and no one
who was present at that conven-
ton knew what had been done.
But admitting that the commit
tee organized on the 20 of Novem-
Der last was regularly done, had
not the people the rights to or
ganize another committee when
thew discovered that the commit
tee they had voted for was work
ing against their interest and
principle, and did not such men and
Democrats as the Hon. j. f..
Mouton, DIR. II. p. Guilbeam and
Robert Martin Esq, and scores
of others, all good and true natire
Louisianains of high parental
lenenge enroll under the folds of
the banner of the new committee,
anti-lottery or Foster, as you may
be pleased to call it; which we
call the Democratic committee,
and Mr.. Robert Martin, one of
the good Democrats mentioned by
the Reveille, was and is yet, a
distinguished member of said
committee, and he was also select
ed as one of the delegates to the
Baton Rouge con vention.
We thought that every body in
the parish knew that a large ma
jority of the people had recogniz-
ed the parish committee which is
presided over by Mr.. Jean Domec,
as was showed by the vote cast on
the % day of March, when a test
was made. And did not the Nc
Emery faction abandoned their
claim as faction of the Democra-
cy when they came and recogniz-
ed the Foster faction after the de-
cision Of the committee of seven,

Lawlessness Again.

We regret to say that the spirit
of lawlessness that prevailed in
this parish is not yet abated. In
formation has reached US that
Monday last the inhabitants OF
Catahoula Cove, have whipped q
negro WAC was accused of stealing
a hog.
All this is wrong, the white
men who whipped the negro think
they have done great thing in
taking the law in their own hands,
they are greatly mistaken, they
have on the contrary, like the
negro, violated the laws of the
state, ano they ace amensble to
Justice for their offense as we'll as
the negro. The negro committed
a theft and they have committed
an assault and battery. Which
of the two are more guilty, the
hungry negro, or the intelligent
whites?
If those people had enough proof
to justify them to whip the negro
they could have brought him be-
fore the court and with the same
proof secure his conviction, and
inAict upon him a legal and not
a lawless punishment.
Those people have committed a
wrong against themselves because
they are law breakers and are liza
BILE to be prosecuted for their Of
Tense; they have committed a
wrong towards the jailor who
would have had the benefit Of
boarding the thief; they have
have committed a wrong against
the lawyer who would have been
employed to defend the accused
and they have committed wrong
against the majesty of the law, by
prefering to punish a culprit by
their lawless process rather thar
by the legal course of justice.
It such a course is to be pur
} sued by our citizens without thu
| interference of the legal authori
: ties, what is the necessity of {

oouNornmAN ooLroN,s OPINION.
He Thinks City Collector sayers Made a
Mistake in 1nsisting Upon Clerk.

mlsEAhd III 1ubtbtlnE Upon Atefks
The topic Of conversation In the city
offices this morning has been the removal
OF Clerk Harry P McOloskey of the tax
office, by Collector elect Sayers in
sisting upon naming Gormley as his
clerk, and having mis- name placed Gu the
payroll from January l.
The general opinion Is tina. the re
moval is the result Of factional feeling
John F. Callahan was Mr.. Sayers's OPP
ponent for the Democratic nomination.
McCloskey was a strong Callahan man
from the beginning Of the fight Gormley
was Seyers adhsrent, and did much to
secure for him the nomination, and this
Is his reward
The McCioskey men did not object to
his removal They only wanted him to
hold over until July as has been the
custom Mr. Sayera, however, saw ft TO
| live up TO the strict letter Of the law, and
City Council could do nothing more than
aecede to his demand.
Speaking Of the matter this morning
Councilman Cotton said:
1T has been the custom In the tax
Office TO consider that the assessor and
collector are divisible officers. their sepa-
rate duties being explicitly defined. That
has been the case for number Of years,
and the effect OF it has been that the
assessor and collector did not call for a
clerk until he had made the assessment
and his duties as collector began. which
was IN July Of the year next. succeeding
his election.
There is, In fact, no occasion for a
clerk TO the assessor. as that work has to
be done by him personally. For this
I eanu1r l.. Il, -. u
psnsAtion. This special compensation
amounts to about $500. This custom
has been so long established, and found
to work SO well, that 1t has not been
called into question before.
AS the law undoubtedly permits OF
| the appointment of a clerk by a newly
elected assessor and collector Immediately
after he qualities. Mr. Sayers is simply
exercising prerogative which the law
allows him. Further than that, it is the
duty Of Council to put the name Of the
/ appointse upon the payroll from jan
uary l, and strike from it the name Of
the clerk of the preceding assessor and
collector.
Really, under the law, the prsdeces
sor and collector elect is no longer asses
sor aus collector; but his powers OF col
tostoA Alb B1utluuCA5 W opECihA SAdNap
for a certain term, TO enable him TO col
/ lect outstanding taxes.
'rhe effect OF Mr. Ssyers insisting
upon a strict construction Of and com
pliauee with the law win be. to deprive
him Of a clerk at the end Of the term for
which be was elected Il will entail upon
him personally the expense of q
clerk then as it is neces sary
that he ora representative should
be in the tax Office at all times and also
necessary that the assessor and collector
should personally collest outside of his
| Office
81 think that further effect Of the new
assessor and collectors faction will be to
necessitats legislation which will ma.
terially amend the laws now governing
the city tax Office, and that it viii also
bring about MANY important changes In
the city charter"
