WILL PROTECT THE Me-


have no feeling of unkindness to-.
ward the colored man ION the con-
trary, we will sustain and protect
him in the full adjoyment of all
his civil and political rights"
The reader will naturally ex-
pect to be told that the above re-
solution was adopted by Republic
can convention and is intended as
a bid for the negro vote, but what
will he think when he is told that
it was adopted at meeting of
Democrats held i'm New Orleans
last Saturday night ? Since
when have Louisiana Democrats
gone into the business of sustain
ing and protecting the negro in
the full enjoyment of his civil and
political rights ?" othe negroes
need protection ? The Gazette
believes that they are getting
along well and are enjoying all
the civil and political rights to
which they are entitled. These
gentlemen did not make 1t known
how they proposed to protect the
negro in his political rights. We
always thought that the Republican
party had a monopoly of the bus
mess of protecting the colored
brother, and was fully able to do
so unaided, but it. appears from
9 the above resolution that num-
Der of Louisiana Democrats will
extend all the help necessary and
will do so unsolicited A faction
of the Democratic party taking up
the cudgel for the negro is indeed
new depaptdre in Louisiana po-
litics. If this opposition to the
present state administration can
not find any other issue, they had
better make fight squarely for
the Offices. The long-winded re-
solutions about the welfare Of the
Democratic party is the veriest
nonsense and their ballot reform
pretenses will deceive no one.
The people of Louisiana have had
enough of such politics and are
not in mood to he bambOozled
with imaginary ills which exist
only in the fertile brains of dis
satisfied politicians.
A number of letters from pro-
minent Democrats III the country
were read endorsing the move.
We have no doubt that they did
so not knowing that the colored
brother wouldebe extended pro-
lection in his political rights, chief
among which is that of suffrage.
Now that this part of the pro-
gram is known it is expected that
Withdrawals will follow.-Lafa-
yette Gazette.
Brother Mouton, those people
means exactly what they say do
you suppose that the Democrats,
more than the Republicans and
populists Il means of course the
politicians, for the people are
their tools are in polite for
glory or for the honor of their
state and country No, they are
after Offices and to get the Offices
they try to get votes, and all votes
count, whether cast by negro,
dago and chinee, and when the
vote is in sight and needed, even
the socalled white purist will
make break for it il he fails to
get the votes, well, the machine
will have to do the rest.

AL WE'RE For SILVER.
How tho Democratic Money Plank of 1899
Was adopted.


To the Editor Of the New York World:
AsBURY PARK, N. j., Sept. al was
chairman Of the committee on resoIu-
tions, and also of the ub-committee
that framed the Democratic national
platform of 1892. Mr.. Patserson's state
ment OF the conflict in the committee
room, as described in to-day's World, is
substantially correct. The money plank
as nrst submitted WAS q straight-out
bimetallic plank declaring for the free
coinage Of gold and silver on equal
terms. [. WAS discussed seven hours,
and repeatedly amended and reoase
Patterson and Senator Danisl, of Vir-
GINA, led the Contest for the insertion
OF the words free coinage of silver"
Senator Villas and Macpherson led the
tight against the use of these words,
but NOS on the ground that they were
opposed to the use of silver. They de-
clared over and over again that thew
were just as good bin eta lists and lust
as friendly to silver as Patterson and
Daniel.
They said their objection to the words
free coinage" was simply that they
had special meaning in certain parts
OF the country that would be mislead-
ing. Atkins, of Tennessee, introduced
the compromise resolution that was
adopted after being modified. Patterson
and Daniel fought it to the end, and
voted against it when it was put to a
vote.
recall the fact that in the final dis
oussion Senator Villas read the plank as
1t now stands to Patterson, dwelling
with strong emphasis on the first clause,
and asked Patterson how 1t differed es-
sentially from his demand for free ooin-
age. Every member of the sub commit
tee claimed to be in favor of genuine bi.
metallism.
II Villas or MACPHERSON OF Bayard
had admitted that the resolution could
be interpreted to mean gold monometal
ism 1T could not have passed the sub
committee, or the general committee, or
the convention.
All three of these bodies supposed
real blmetallism was being endorsed
when this resolution was adopted.

He declares he is for silver coin

ious figure in the politics Of his
state.
He is so years old, is feet ard
