except honorable) opposition of the
Journal and its Washburn hackers to
Gov. Clough that aided materially in
the overwhelming victory at the pri-
maries all over the state, and with
past results as a prediction for the
future, it is mighty good thing for
Gov. Clough that the Journal has
bolted his nomination. When can
didate for such a high office as
governor receives the nomina-
ton on the first ballot by 598
majority, it is plainly evident that he
is the peoples choice, and the peo-
Piles candidate, and not the silk stock

loyal Republicans in this section, and

All doubt as to where the Mime
apolis Journal stands has been put to
rest since the state convention; it is
now known to be boIter and a dis
gruntled mugwump sheet, and its
course pursued since the nomination
of Gov.Clough, and in fact a long time
before his nomination, is being con
demned by all loyal Republicans. II
even goes so far as to print let Of
trashy criticisms, purporting to- come
from Hutchinson, of few soreheads
and Populists, and not Republicans
on the action taken by the state con.
vention in nominating Clough. The
Journal bolts the nomination of D. M
Clough, but claims (?) to support the
rest of the ticket, which, we must say
is too bad for them. 1t was the dis
honorable, nefarious, vindictive and
unreasonable land in fact everything

A great deal is being said, and con.
siderable space is being occupied
about the great money question
You will hear party of men discuss
! ing the gold and silver issues in all
quarters, some wanting the free coin:
age of gold and silver, and some the
single gold standard. A noted fact
of all this controversy is that if you
approach free silverite and ask him
why he wants the free coinage of sill
yer he cannot give you any tangible
reason; and the same will apply to a
single standard man. Not one out of
fifty can tell you why. Instead Of
the government putting its dollar
stamp on 66 cents worth of silver and
benefting few western mine OWNERS
why wouldn't it be better for the gov
eminent to put its dollar stamp on
sixty pounds of wheat, which is now
worth only A cents, and benefit the
farmers? The latter would benefit a
worthy class of hardworking laboring
men, and 10000 men would reap
benefit, to one of the silverites. If
the government can say to the silver
mine owner that his silver is worth
dollar which is only worth sc cents
now, it certainly can say to the
farmer, his wheat is worth
dollar, which is worth only A cents
now. There is no question but what
if the government adopts the free
coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to
l it will make multimillionaires out of
a few silver miners in short space of
time and benefit no one else. If the
government is to make move to
benefit any one we would rather see
the people as a whole benefited in
stead Of a paltry few.

The result of the convention was a
bitter pill for the Minneapolis Journal

the state at large, and even in their

With the beginning Of this month
the literary world lost one of its
brightest authors and writer's the
world has ever known, in the person
of Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe. She
passed away on the LIST of July at
Hartford, Conn, surrounded by mem
bers of the family. She has written
many noted works, but the one which
brought her fame the highest, and
endeared her name to the public, was
" Uncle Toms Cabin" which. has
entered every household in New Eng
land, besides being read all over the
United States and England. She
was noble and generous woman and
lived useful life, and her loss will
be keenly felt by the literary circle,

LESSON

The last election has taught many
lessons which if taken 10 heart and
acted upon wisely by the good people
may yet produce much good. But.
perhaps, no parish has furnished such
IN object lesson to those well inten-
toned people who are striving to es-
sahlish IL purely white Republican par
ty than our n%pighbnring parish of
Assumption. sTliere the Lily Whites
had entered int an agreement with
the Democrats, uarrrlling ont the To-
cal offices. Both sides were pledged
10 the joint nominees and everything
went on smoothly until a short time
before the election. The Lily Whites
tiattpr-d themselves with being mas
teis of tie situation. They entertain
ed no fears Of Sanibo's intervention :;
they felt SURF they had him under their
absolute control. Samho would not
dare question their right to dictate and
run things to suit their own sweet will.
5" they thought. AID upon that as
sumption they acted.
The old time radical lenders of As
sumption Snon fiSahused Il Lily
Whites. They rallied their forces and
pat forth IA parish and ward tickets,
and the Lily Whites We're not long in
finding out that they could not control
the negroes IL little bit. The old time
Republicans elected their Sheriff and
most If their ward officers, defeating
for police jurors some of the best cltI-
Gems Of Assumption among the Lily
NyrIIt., TI,., Hi ,,rt .laat ,4a,,,aSnn-
~tatives of their W because they had
not seen proper to pat forth any can
dldateS.
The result in Assumption proves the
proposition the SENTINEL advanced
in the beginning Of the Lily White
moveEent, whicit is that as long as the
negroes have the right of suffrage and
they lemain in bulk in the Republican
party, as they are now, there can be
no white Republican party in Lonisi-
ana. The Lily Whites can't control
the negroes by allying themselves with
the Republican party. The negroes
compose the vast majority of the menu
bersl,ip Of that party. and they will
eventually control its iestinies as they
have done III tile past. through KEEL
logs. Warmoth auC other carpet
baggers.
The only way to establish, 4 white
Republican party in the Sonti, is TO
eliminate the negroes from politics
and thus allow tire whites to divide on
economical questions, without danger
TO the social fabric.
Any other method is fool hardy and
lmpiactIcahle and may work great
harm TO the State. The Sooner the
Lily Whites realize this. and act upon
it, the better it Will be for themselves
and their State.

NEEDED LEGISLATION

Tie legislature will soon settle 10
work. There viii be many matters of
importance before it calling for soln-
tIon. not the least among them will be
q good election law. OF this. we pro
pose to speak later. It is our purpose
at this time to cali attention to one
piece of much needed legislation IN
the interest If the labarerS. We refer
to the bad system which prevails III
the country among certain employers
in compelling laborers to purchase the
necessaries NJ life from certain desi.-
mated stores, sometimes kept by the
employers themselves aud generally
ill their interest. An il result Of such
a system the poor laborers are com
PEELED to pay higher for what they
consume.
The last legislature attempted to
remedy the evil by prohibiting tickets
redeemable only in goods etc. but it
has not gone far enough and the evil
still tiourishes. It should be eradi-
Gated completely and the laborer made
free to buy where he lists.
The SENTINEL does not believe il
class legislation. as a rule. hnt it
recognizes that there are evils which
can only be cured by what seems to be
class legislation. 1t would not favor
the suppression of plantation stores !:
planters and employers have the per
feet right to keep stores but it does
plead for the abolition of that system
which forces the employees t buy the
necessaries from such stores regardless
of the prices. 1t believes that ii Il;
sense of justice will not assure the
laborers the fair play they are entitled
to, the right to invest their dollar
where it will bring them the most
good, the law should step in, and
throw its protection around the labo-
rers.
We trust the legislature will take
up this matter. where its predecessor
left Oft. and bring about Il certain and
effective remedy of the crying evils
we refer to.
