There Is a rapidly growing senti

only objection we can urge to this is
that 1t will be no very long time after
this concession is made before some of

more office seekers in the Stat. Than

DANGER.

L In cur last issue we pointed the
danger OF a schism in the Democratic
party, which the Office seeking ele-
lntnt a'e trying to create by proscrib-
III. those Democrats who oppose the
tree and unlimited coinage Of silver.
We showed how tire party had been
wea kened by secessions from it to iuin
the Popnli>t and Republican parties,
and the danger of II fusion between
these parties. We had no idea then
that steps towards lie cOnsummatien
Of such i combination would he taken
tins early in the campaign. but it
seems that they are determined to
down Democracy. and want to open
the ball now. The following is taken
from the New Orleans Republican. the
official organ Of the Republican party
Of Louisiana:
The present might be an opportune
time for the Republicans rnl Populsts
OF Louisiana TO meet, and see if they
cannot agree upon plan for the over
throw Of the common enemy-the
Democratic party. Coalition between
Popnlisrs and Republicans resulted
last year, in the complete overthrow
OF the Democratic party in North
Carolina, and as i result we now have
in the United States Senate Popuiist
aud Republican representing that
State. besides local officials all over
the State. Next year our legislature,
which is elected in April at the same
time that we elect State and parish
otficlalS. Will select successor to Sen
ator Blanchard. whose term OF Office
expires March 3. 1897. By combining
with the Populists 1t might be possible
to elect a legislature that will refuse
to elect a Democrat "a Senator. and
also increase our present limited rep
fesentatlon in parish aud State affairs.
II the Republicans Of North Caro-
lima can. BY combining with tie Pop
nlists, aid the party, aud place that
State III the doubtful column in the
selection OF a president, the Republi-
cans Of Louisiana can afford to make
the attempt and do likewise. Espec-
tally is it to our interest to form such
an alliance at present, as our party is
veal est where the Populists are
strongest the Mill parishes of the
State. In any event we have nothing
to lose by such combination. but
great good. a new condition Of affairs
may result"
White people oe Louisiana. do YOU
remember when your State was under
the yoke Of the Republicans Do you
remember Do you wish to do any
thing that will endanger the perpetu-
alton OF the party that led you out Of
the wilderness and into the bright
sunlight of white supremacy, and a
return to those DAYS of horror and
blood ? The supreme test is now to be
applied. Will vou enroll your name
with those men who. whi.e fighting tor
free silver, adhere to the principles of
Democracy. Of white rule, of peace,
and of everything that is dear to Lou
islanians, or will you sit supinely by
and allow politicians to murder those
loved principles by injecting an issue
that is extraneouS to State issues De-

THERE IS PEACE AT LAST
Differences Between Professor ana the
Board Of Education
mr. Search Has Been Permitted to Resign and
VIII Receive Pay Up to and
Including July II

White winged peace reigns IN the scnooi
department and all those connected there
with are happy. Professor Preston W.
Search Yesterday formally rendered his
resignation as superintendent, which said
resignation was Immediately accepted py
the board of education in special meet
ing held for that particular purpose. In
return for having been allowed to have
his own way in the matter, Mr.. Search
was paid his salary as superintendent up
to and including July 18th.
As announced in yesterdays Herald
would be done. the board OF education
met in committee of the whole at 10
o'clock yesterday morning, every mem Ger
being present except President Hale,
who is with his family summering at
Deer Park. Professor Search was on
hand. looking just as dignified and acting
just as determinedly as he had OF yore.
Peculiar as it may seem, it is neverthe-
less a fact. that Or. Wills, who made the
motion in the board meeting some two
weeks ago that hereafter all meetings
should bo open meetings and of public
character and who objected very strenu-
Uusly because the record later did not
show that fact, yesterday morning insist
edsthat reporters ought not to be admitted
to the meeting then in session. The mat
ter was left to vote of those present and
it was discovered that Directors Pitman
and Grubb of the. 'six' were the only
members favorable to an open meeting.
II all of the reports are true there was
something OF torrid time between the
majority of the beard and Mr.. Search.
The latter contended that his resignation
ought to take effect August 1st, and he
should be permitted to draw the salary of
the uperintendency up to that day and
date. The matter was debated pro and
con and the compromise of July 18th was
finally agreed to. the board also, after fur
ther heated argument, officially permitting
Mr.. Search to resign on the spot. The late
superintendent and his friends on the
board fought hard for this point and now
that they have accomplished their objsct,
claim great victory, inasmurh as they
have compelled the majority to acknowl-
edge that their work in decapitating the
late superintendent had not been legal.
Professor Search's monetary demands
there are now two of them-read in both
instances for salary as city superintend-
ent of schools. The board thus en- rloyed,
upon their own showing. two superin-
tendents for the period of nearly ono
month, as Professor James A. Foshay has
also been acting as superintendent from
June Oath t, date.
Professor Foshay, some Of the board
say, will draw pay as superintendent only
from July 18th. He will probably be re-
elected TO that position simply as n mat
ter of form, at the next meeting OF the
board of education to be held one week
from Monday night.
