The election is over, bnt we can't
close without publishing the follow
ing resolutions passed by a Demo
cratic mass meeting held at Monroe
on the 10Th, condemning A. A. Gun
by and his paper. How must this
man feel, who once was held in high
esteem by his fellow citizens, but
now despised;
One hundred planters, represent
ing every ward and precinct in the
parish, met here to-day and held a
meeting, enthusiastic in its support
of the Democratic ticket, and passed
the following resolutions denounc-
ing the Shiny trail of certain rene
gades therein mentioned:
Be it resolved by the planters of
Ouachita parish, IN mass meeting as
sem bled, that, We view with horror
and disgust the course pursued by
our fellow citizen, A. A. GnnbY and
denounce his course in attempting
to array the colored people of
Ouachita parish against their white
neighbors and friends as impolitic,
cowardly aud unworthy of a good
citizen and gentleman.
Be it further resolved that in his
cowardly attempt to degrade the
memory of our departed heroes who
spent their lives and fortunes in the
redemption of Louisiana from the
vile, venal and corrupt government
of Republicans, scalawags and car
pet-baggers, be has forfeited all
claim to the respect of the good
people of our parish and is unwor-
thy of the notice of decent people.
Be it further resolved that we con-
denim IN unmeasured terms the utter
ances of the Monroe Bulletin in its
slanderous publications and attacks
on the good people of Ouachita
parish and denounce it as a shame
less degradation of journalism, and
should be regarded with contempt
as unworthy the notice of decent
people.
Resolved further, that such vile
utterances as disgraced the editorial
columns Of the Monroe Bulletin in
its issue of April 18th, 1896, will
not be further tolerated or permit
ted in this community.
Be 1t further resolved, that we
renew our allegiance to the time
honored principles Of the Demo
cratic party and point with pride to
the brilliant record of distinguished
leaders, and call upon. friends of
good government and honest admin
istration- of public affairs to rally to
our support.
Be it further resolved that copy
of these resolutions be sent to A. A.
Gunby and published i'll the news
papers of this parish.

The Rising Sun, Qnd.) Recorder
commenting on short local that
appeared in the BID. few days
ago, says:
| The Providence La.) Democrat
is bold advocate of rule by the
minority. 1t says:
This is no time for white man
to sulk or to have the sore-head, be-
cause something did not go to suit
him. Be man, be above littleness
and go to the polls and vote for
the continuance of white suprema-
cy..... The white people are deter
mined to rule in St. Landry"
We meant every word of the
above-that white people shall con-
tinue to controle Louisiana whether
they are in the minority or not. Do
you know Mr.. Recorder, that from
1866 to 1878, during the time that
the Republican party and the ignor-
ant negro had control of East Car
roll parish, that they stole, in cash
money, nearly $500 And re-
member this thieving was just as
great in every other parish In the
State. 1t may be different up in
Indiana, Mr.. Recorder, but down
in Louisiana the white people, who
own the land and pay the taxes,
shall run the government.

THE ELECTION.

AS we go to press the news from
the election is so meagre that no
definite conclusion can be arrived
at, but the Indications point to the
election of the Democratic ticket.
Our ticket was slaughtered III the
city Of New Orleans by the Citizens
League, and instead of receiving
II, 900 to 20, majority, it came
out of, the city with about 5000
ahead, caused by the honest gang,
as they call themselves, trading with
the Republicans.
There is no denying the fact, the
Democracy of our State is in a bad
way, and something will have to be
done, OF it will be wiped out. This
election has certainly opened the
eyes of those politicians who wont
to look upon Louisiana as the cradle
of the sssolid South"
The following in orr opinion, was
the cause of the lack Of the usual
large majority:
"In he State there is divided
Democracy, the partisans of the
several factions being deeply enbit-
tered and in some cases actively
hostile one against the other.
This division grew out of the
eager haste of prominent Democrats
all over the State to secure Office or
other personal advantages, and these
selfish schemes were pressed with a
reckless disregard for the soiidity,
the harmonious action and the gen
eral good of the farty. The natn-
raj result has been that there was
no effort made TO pacifiy the con-
tending chiefs, to compromise con-
fllcting claims, to consolidate inter-
ests and harmonic the discordant
elements in the party. Nobody
who had any power or authority
seemed to give any consideration to
the party; but all that was done in
personal and factlonal interest. "

DEATH OF CAPTAIN JUNY MUL-
HOLLAND.

With sincere regret we chronicle
this week the death OF Captain Juny
[. MulholIaud, vice president and NAH
ager of the Mulholland line, who, in
the prime Of his manhood died sud
denly at Vicksbnrg, last Monday nj 2
O'Clock D. m, while talking to his
brother and DIR. O'Leary in the Office
of the company.
Captain Juny, as we were wont to
call him, was only SO years of age
strong and robust. and as fine speci-
men of humanity as we ever saw.
Twelve years ago, he was entrusted
with the management of the Muihol-
land line, and by his untiring energy
and fine business qualities, he made it
what ii is to-day, a paying enterprise
10 lis owners, a great convenience and
almost necessity to our people. His
loss will be felt greatly by the owners
of the company, aud they will find
with difficulty man of adequate en-
ergy, tact and ability 10 take his place.
AS manager of the line, Captain
Juny was frequently called upon to do
acts of charity, and no one who ever
applied TO him for favor was ever
| refused /; ia fact, his charity was pro-
| verbal. True TO his profession, he
| never let au old river man suffer, and
often did be keep some poor fellow al
work when he could have easily dis
pensed with his services.
Captain Juny will be sadly missed
by the merchants of Vicksburg, whose
| interests he never ceased TO advocate,
by the Mulholland line and by the peo-
pie along the river whom he served SO
faithfully and so well for the past
twelve years. lie leaves wife and O
child to mourn his loss.

The sugar bounty. case came up
for hearing before the United States
Supreme Court on Friday last. The
suit was brought by the sugar plant
ers OF our State to compel the Gov
eminent to turn over the So 900, 200
sugar bounty, but the payment OF
which was refused by Comptroller
Bowler. "The decision OF the Su-
preme Court is awaited with much
interest, not only because of the i'm
mediate issue involved bat because
it is expected to determine whether a
treasury clerk or officer may deliber-
ately set aside an act Of Congress by
merely prcnouncing that act uncon-
stitulional and refusing to obey its
sinstrrctions. "

make the effort, and it really looks
