The Populist Senatorial conven
ton for this district met at Sodus
last Saturday, and nominated E.
j. Gamble, of this parish, and ID.
G. Freeman, of Red River, as oul
candidates. Mr.. Gamble was nom.
mated on the first ballot, receiving
every vote in the convention from
each of the four parishes. Mr..
Freeman not being so well known,
was opposed by some other candi-
dates, but finally won the nomina-
ton, and being present accepted
same.
Mr.. Gamble was wired to know
if he would accept, but being alb
sent in New Orleans, and not being
aware of any such intention on
the part of the convention, he has
not yet given his acceptance. The
convention adjourned to meet 31st
inst. at same place, provided, Mr..
Gamble did not accept.
This is a most excellent ticket,
and we believe it will win on its
merits before the intelligent people
of the district. We shall have

White supremacy.

The key stone to the 'Solid
South" and the key note of sue
cess to the Democratic party, the
supremacy of the Caucasian race,
is fast leaving that party, as shown
by the following, and numerous
other evidences
In accordance with the instructions
| from the State Central Democratic En-
ecutiye Committee. n meeting of the
Democrats of Ward Two, Richand par
ish, was held at the Rayville courthouse
last Saturday to elect a member of the
parish committee, vice b. D. Edwards,
deceased. The special to the Picayune
says there were forty voters present. of
whom thirty-tive were negroes. MIR.
John Jones, prominent merchant of
Rayville, was unanimously chosen
Shreveport Times.
The recent action of the Demo
cratic parish committees in DeSoto
and Red River, in allowing negroes
to vote in their nominating prima-
ries; the refusal of the Democrat
lc congressional committee of this
district one year ago, to submit
their candidate to white primary,
and the election of that candidate
in the November election by negro
votes, are straws-yea burrs and
branches-that show which way
the wind is blowing.
Not only is the Democratic par
ty of this State afraid to submit
its ticket against the Populist tick
ct in a white primary, but the ma
chine Democracy, the leaders who
now fill the offices and control the
organization of the party, will not
submit their chances for re-nomi-
nation insale the party to white
vote.
In proof of this latter, it is con-
fidently believed that the Demo
cratic State Central committee
which was to have met in New Or
leans yesterday, will refuse an ur-
gent demand from its own ranks
for a white primary to decide upon
candidates and platform.
Verify the Democratic party is
no longer party of white suprem-
acy.
How hypocritical then the cant
of that party in favor of white
supremacy. How foolish the mis-
guided people who follow that par
ty, thinking that it stands as it
once stood, for white supremacy!
Verify, the day of the hypocrite
and the fool who is gulled thereby,
is not passed yet.

We pity the man who has sunk
so low that he stands ready to act
as agent of corruptionists in the
work of bribing and buying vot-
ers. We pity such, we say, but
we have not much faith in getting
the support of such men to help
make the laws so just that there
will be no mducement to bribe or
buy votes, or do any other dirty
work to make a living. But we
do have faith that honest voters
in corrupt parties will see the ne
cessity of leaving their old party
and joining party of the people.
In fact, nearly two million have
already done so. Let us build up
an honest and just government,
where there is no incentive to cor
ruption. We can do it with your

Drain Of Gold.

Wear treated to the constant
report that gold is going out of
the country. 1t is not necessary
to report the fact in order to con-
vey the information. Of course it
is going out, and every dollar that
goes out pinches us. The govern
ment has destroyed the silver dol
lar, trodden on it and despised it,
and every time that coin is wanted,
either at home or abroad, gold
must be supplied. 1t is good
deal as if a farmer should burn up
his corn because be had wheat.
But then what is the use of talking
about it. The thing cannot be
changed while tho government is
in such hands as it now is.-The
