name of Mr.. G. d. Tessier, one of
the Oldest and most respected citi-
zens of our city and parish.
Mr.. Tessier says frankly what
we all know TO be true of the other
candidates as well, that he wants
the Office for the money there is
in it. Having served bis country
and his trade long and faithfully,
he is now not able to do hard work,

DERRY, La, Jan. IL, 1880
Editor Louisiana Populist
Dear Sir: The Democratic pri-
mary election held on 18th inst. at
Cloutierville, passed off quietly,
and will say by the help of the
populists who were over persuaded
by the ward heelers telling them
that it made no difference, that they
could vote in the primary and then
vote as they pleased in the general
election, and in so doing they were
enabled to poll 73 votes. But l
think when the general election
comes off they will be about one
third short, unless they work their
rabbit foot pretty lively. They
seemed to need only the vote of the
Populists to nominate a certain
man. Nominations seemed to be
all they We're after, and l suppose
they have some plan mapped out by
which they aim to elect their man.
If you see fit to publish this, you
are at liberty to do so.

State Platform
Peoples Party of Louisiana.

1. We affirm our allegiance TO
the pure principles of popular gov
ernment, as enunciated by Wash
ington, jefferson and jackson, and
embodied in our National platform,
and we uphold the principle en-
bodied in the immortal declaration
that this should he "a Government
of the people, by the people and
for the people"
2 And especially do we de-
mand the free and unlimited coin
age of both gold and silver, at the
ratio of Is to 1, with equal debt
paying power as primary money,
and a full legal tender monetary
system for the people Of the Unit
ed States, without consulting any
foreign nation or money syndicate.
3. We demand for Louisiana
industries equal protection to that
afforded the industries of other
States. An American, not a Brit
ish system of commercial laws,
that no discrimination against our
agricultural and industrial classes
may he made.
4. We favor a just and liberal
system of public schools for the
benefit of all classes of our people,
and we deplore the fact that for
many years the management of
our public school system has been
so defective that the party now in
power seeks to disfranchise a large
number of our citizens On the
grounds of ignorance.
5. We denounce the disgrace
full and infamous election frauds
which have prevailed in Louisiana,
and we demand and are determin-
cd to have perfectly honest and
fair election, at which each citizen
qualified to vote, shall cast his bal
lot freely and secretly, and the
vote shall be fairly counted as they
are actually cast. This is the SUI
preme issue in this campaign, and
in its success the honor, manhood
and prosperity of Louisiana are
involved. The foul and loathsome
methods which have brought the
ballot box suffer to the front, and
placed him in power in Louisiana,
must, in the name of liberty, JUS
tice, morality and common decen-
cy, be suppressed.
6. We oppose and denounce the
proposed suffrage amendment, con-
cocted by political schemers, not to
purify and elevate the ballot box
but to subserve their selfish pur-
poses by providing contradictory
qualifications, to suddenly disfran-
chise large masses of worthy citi-
zens, by deluding the people with
promises of changes in the next
Legislature. We denounce the
whole amendment as a vicious
fraud which hproposes measures and
methods that are un-American and
destructive of free Institutions.
Z. We favor the utmost econo-
my of expenditures, in State, city
and parish, and pledge our candi-
dates to strict and impartial en-
forcement of all laws, and the pres
ervation and promotion of every
interest in Louisiana, whose wei
fare is BROADER and more sacred
than party lines or partisan poll
cies and We invite and urge the
true men and honest citizens of
Louisiana, without regard to past
party affiliations to join with us in
a noble, patriotic and powerful eff
fort to relieve our people and to
elevate the standard of politics
and public morality in our beloved
State.
+. j. Gamble, Chairman.

The Republican party is doing
about the same amount of crow
ing and boasting that the Demo-
cratic party did in 1892, and it
will result about the same way.
The money power has both old
parties by the nap of the neck and
seat Of their breeches and absolute
ly controls them. If you want
the people represented in this gov
ernment you have got to put new
party in power.-Ex.

Booth Mus; Resign.

We have received since our con-
vention half score of letters from
leading Populists all over the State,
begging us to get Mr.. Booth to
come off the State ticket, in order
that a winning ticket, or at least,
one which will command the sup
port of our party, may be put in
the field. We have received Mr..
Nelson's resignation from the tick
ct, and unless Mr.. Booth resigns,
we expect every other man on the
ticket to resign. The Populist
press of the State is listless in its
support of the ticket, knowing the
circumstances under which it was
placed, or rather left in the field.
Many of the papers, like the Pop
ulist, have refused 10 put the tick
ct at their masthead, and will not
do SO in its present shape. 1t is
worse than folly to do so.
As Hon. A. Benoit says, we
cannot even increase our congress
sional vote with this ticket, which
would be calamity to our party,
state and national.
Does MIR. Booth desire this Z If
not be will send in his resignation
to the committee at Alexandria,
and if be does not, and persists in
his attempt to ruin the party. then
the committee will do the only
thing left to save the party, and
that is to adopt strong resolutions
denouncing Booth as traitor and
a secret encmy of the party, addu-
cling the proof in the resolutions,
and call new nominating conyen-
ton to name State ticket that
will bury Booth in oblivion and
shame.
No one man can control the Peo-
ple's party as is frequently done
in the old parties.

The bond which kept Byron and Hunt
together was broken by Shelley's death.
Byron was tired of him, and Hunt had not
the tact to leave him alone. We give
Byron's version OF the estrangement rather
than that of the other for Leigh Hunts
answer for himself is O weaker apology
and had better have remained unwritten:
"Hunt's letter is probably the exact
piece of vulgar coxcombry you might ex-
pect from his situation. He is a good man,
with some poetical elements In his chaos,
but spoiled by the Christchurch hospital
and Sunday newspaper-to say nothing
of the Surrey Jail, which conceited him in
to O martyr But Leigh Hunt Is good
man and a good father-see his odcs to all
the Masters Hunt; a good husband-see
his sonnet to Mrs. Hunt; good friend
see his epistles to different people; q great
coxcomb, and q very vulgar person in ey
erything about him. But that's not his
fault, but of circumstances
Again, though with no direct ailusion
TO Hunt, he writes:
"Thc pity of these men is that they nev-
er lived In high life nor in solitude. There
is no medium for tho knowledge of the
busy or the still world. If admitted into
high life for o season, 1t is merely as spec
tators-tbey form no part of the mechan-
ism thereof. Now, Moore and /, the one
