il is not unlikely he will be opposed

There are two senator's to be elected

Republican. A Republican nomi-

Resolved, That We reaffirm our allie
glance to the time-honored principles of
the Democratic party, believing that they
constitute the best rule of action for an
enlightened people under a democratic
republican form of government.
Resolved, That we point with pride to
the record made by the Democratic party
through the present administration,
marked by honest, faithful and business
like management of every State interest,
evidenced by the improved condition of
its tinances-its bonds above par; its debt
being gradually retired; it's public %institu-
tions enlarged and improved and run upon
q cash basis; it's constantly growing and
improved public school system; a COM
plete leyee system; its expenses kept be-
low its revenues, and its obligations
promptly paid in cash and universal con-
tidence established Inc maintained; that
the management of the atfairs'of our par
ishes under Democratic rule furnishes
equal source of congratulations, as shown
by the settlement of a large judgment and
floating debt; the absence of any out
standing claims; the prompt payment of
current expenses, as well as their mate
rial reduction; the improvement of the
public roads, its public buildings and

tions for public schools. all within and be-

Whereas, there is an honest difference
of opinion among Democrats upon the
question of the free coinage of silver, BIZ

Whereas, this convention deals only with
State politics; and
Whereas, the money question belongs
to the domain of national politics only,
therefore belt
Resolved, That this convention refer
this question to to the Democracy Of the

national convention and in nominating
their candidates to the legislature. State

day and called a convention for Feb.

A WITHOUT A
PARTY.

Capt. Pharr stands to-day a can,
didate for the gubernatorial chair
Of Louisiana without a party. Ell
has been nominated by an executive
committee of the Populists, and tina
nomination has been ratified by a
self constituted mass meeting Of a
few sugar teat Republicans. This
remarkable nomination has not a
single element of representative poll
tics In it. 1t is a nomination die
tated by a little committee and a
mob and awaiting the s~anctifeation
OF old Republicans and negroes.
Thus Mr.. Pharr represents nothing
in the field of politics or he repre-.
sents a number of conflicting and
entirely irreconcilable principles. In
himself he stands for prohibition
and other %puritanical legislation. As
the candidate Of the Populists he
represents the demands promulgated
in the Ocala and Omaha platforms
Of the PopuIists. As such he rep.
resents the mad sub-treasury
scheme; the imitation Of the currency
to fifty dollars per capita, which
would unsettle trade, industry and
all investment of capital, and ne
cessarily end in bankruptcy; he rep
resents the demand that the Federal
government shall make indiscrimi-
nate loans at 2 per cent or less in
terest to farmers, secured by pump
kins, peas and turnips. He repre-.
sents free trade and antagononizes
bounties, especially bounties on
sugar. Finally, as the candidate of
the Populists, he represents whisk-
ers, wind and communism.
As the candidate Of the sugar teats
he antagonizes free trade and
stands for protection and bounties,
especially bounties on sugar; in
other words, the taxation of the
masses for the enrichment of the
few. He represents bulldozing, mig.
ger killing and ballot box stnfing.
Finally, if the old Republican and
convention shall make him
their candidate, he will represent
the era of proajgacy, fraud, crime,
shame and oppression, which, under
Warmoth ann kellogg; devastated
this State and plundered its treasury
and its people out of the enormous
amount u hundred millions of
dollars. He will stand for the re-
peal of the Jim Crow law and in
opposition to neutrality-suspicious. leg.
