The Foster Opposition Not Dead

The triumph of the Foster COM
bine in the state central committee
at New Orleans on Thursday has
not dissipated the opposition which
was rallying around the McEnery
standard. The meeting was a cut
and dried affair, and Foster had his
lines well drawn. In their deliber-
ations they simply voiced the wish
es of Foster and Fitzpatrick-a
combination which has been form
ed three years, and cemented by
the cohesive power of public
plunder."
But the people of Louisiana are
not going to submit to the dictation
of any crowd of political huck-
sters. The News is not prepared
to say by what means this power
will be overcome, but the Foster
following. now arrogantly jubl-
liant, may rest assured that they
have fight on their hands. The
opposition will be organized in
every parish, and at the proper
time man in whom all true lovers
Of Louisiana can trust, Will be
found to lead the now rapidly
forming lines of the opposition to
victory.
The present situation is this A
large majority of the people of
this state are opposed to the politi-
cal methods Of Gov. Foster. Hore-
tofore this opposition has been un-
organized, while the Foster COM
bination is made up of a close cor
poration of astute politicians who
are in it for the spoils. So long as
the people are passive the pollti-
clan wins. When they get thor
oughly reused the politician hunts
his hole.
The people of Louisiana are get
ting aroused. - Monroe Evening
News.
