LETTER OF ATTORNEY GENE.
RAJ CUNNINGHAM
c. +. BURR,
j.. J. BARRY,
lperviSOr.s of Elections,

Chas. L. Burr, Supervisor of Elections, Orc-
lousas, La.
Dear Sir: In reply TO your favor. | have to
say that no man has Il right to vote IN TINS
State unless he is duly registered according l"
law. Section DC of Act ISL of 1894 provides pos
itlvely that no person shall be permitted to
vote i'll this State who has not been duly reg
istered asa qualified voter i'll accordance with
law, and in the ward and precinct therein IN
which he actually resides" :
If a man ncglects or fails to register. or fails
to have the necessary change made in his reg
istratiOn, in case of change of residence. iC
cannot vote, however much qualified he might
be i'll other respects.
Sec. 27 in no manner conflicts with the pro
visions of Sec. %. 1t merely provides that in
case the right Of any person 10 vote IS ciihl,
lenged, the commissioners of election shall
have power to administer oaths.' etc. 1Ris
clearly refers to a ease where a mans ri%lH to
vote is challenged, Notwithstanding ting Epo:l
book indicates that he has been dnlyAF=IS-
tered and it only furnishes such a cha@rn&td
person a legal mode or Identifying himself and
of satisfying the commissioners that he is the
person registered under the name stated, ard
that he has a legal right to vote. This provis-
ion was not intended, in anv sense or event. to
take the place of the registration required by
Section 26. Yours trnly.

Pharrisms-A Few of Them,

N. O. Daily States.
The payment of a public debt and the
cancellation Of the interest for many
years and the raising of the public cred
it to par, is robbery of the tax payers
for the enrichment of the bondholders.
The negro is the superior of the white
man. All the badness and of
the negro he has imbibed from his CON
tact with the white man.
The decrease in the price of building
levees is a menace to labor, means, in
deed, that the price of labor has been
arbitrarily and cruelty reduced, not that
we have increased aud improved ia
c~iiities for such work, and that the
Prices of the necessaries of life have
Lken largely reduced by the tariff re-
f6Fns introduced by the Democratic
party.
That a purified system of elections is
not in a reform of the electorate, by
eliminating the illiterates, paupers and
vicious classes, granted them by a Re-
publican Congress with the view to
scourgiDg the South and in defeating
any effort to elevate the standard of
citizenship that does not accord with
the views of the negroes.
That every effort made to euualjze
the assessment Of property so as to
equitably distribute the burdens of
government between the poor, middle
classes and the rich, is an attack upon
the right of property and wealth.
That bonds representing a public
debt, bearing seven per cent interest
and worth only from fifty to sixty cents
on the dollar, are a truer evidence of
public prosperity than bonds worth par
in all the financial centers of the world
and bearing four per cent.
That high protection and bounties.
which can only be paid by the govern
ment forcibly taking the money ont of
the pockets of the masses to put it in
the pockets Of the rich, are in the line
OF advancing the industries of the State
and country.
The negro being a superior being,
shot guns and Winclesters must be-
brought to the polls to protect him in
the exercise of the franchise and en-
able him to put black feet on white
Threats.

being made in the rural districts by

of delight by the political

good shape, but suffered consider
