We confess that at times we have o.
feeling of envy at the expense of
Messrs. Pharr, Gunby and Pickett,
who show superior skill in twisting
facts so as to make the 'eworse appear

initiate them, but we nevertheless
admire the talent, not to say genius
with which these speakers are endow-
ed, whose skill in the use of language
amounts to fine ant. 1t is pity
that such skill should be put to so
base use; nevertheless, it is skill,
and rare skill, too, reminding US of
the story of the bishop who took

become better acquainted with the

1t is an unpleasant duty to i Fir
and to differ widely from those who
have heretofore co-operated with ia,
But we do not understand that It IS
the part of wisdom not to, rccorn;ze
patent facts. We may not shut our
eyes or pretend not to SEQ what is
evident. A large majority Of tbs
Populists of North Louisiana have
heretofore been staunch supporters
OF the Democratic party, bet tlrre
Is no denying the fact that while os-.
tensibly flying the Populis5 colors
and supporting the Pharr tirkot,
they are cooperating with their for
mer opponents. Inside the Demo
cratic ranks the largest liberty pre-
walls, the only requisite being faith
full adherence to the party and Dis
position to secure it's success. The
issues are between good and bad
government; between government by
the white race and government by o
party controlled by negrozing i2,-
fiuence; between purity in public mat
ters and corruption; between econo~
my and extravaganza; between con-
stltutlonal government, order, bhFift
and prosperity, sustaining law on the,
one hand, and riot and confusion and
the unlawful methods of unrestraineG
will on the other. In the presence Of
such issues, we cannot appreciate the
influences that could lead any white
citizen to deviate from his former
course. In changing their politics
the Populists have failed to give good
reasons. A pretext is one thing, a.
reason is another. There are only O.
few Populists in Bossier parish, -
'Corporals guard" so to speak
They are good men and citizens, and
we are sorry to see some of our OLD
friends and co-workers in the cause
of the right, abandon their political
faith and join themselves to those
whom we have together striveu
against so long and we trust thas
they will on consideration determine
to fight manfully, as of yore, under
the Democratic banner against tho
enemies Of the Democratic party.
Come home to Democracy! Come
out of the bushes and brush of Re-
publican deception! Come out of
the quicksands and quagmires OF
Populism! Come out of the danger
GUS company of fanatics and MERGE
nary adventures, Come back to-
your first love-"th household Of
the faithful"
