The State Convention.

u
In company with Messrs. w. G.
Roberts and r. s. Cameron we at
tended the Democratic State nomi-
mating convention which assembled
in Baton Rouge on the 9th. The
first named attended as one of the
delegates from Grant, while Mr..
Cameron was present only as a
looker-on. We arrived in Baton
Rouge about $50 p. m. on the 9th,
and found nearly half of the dele
gates already on the ground, while
more continued to arrive by every
train and steamboat that came in
during the night and the following
morning. About 500 delegates at
tended, and fully that many more
were present as spectators.
The convention was called to or
der at 1910 p. m. by Vice Chair
man G. Harrison Parker, Chairman
Kruttschnichtt being detained at
home with sickness in his family.
Rev.-J. Y. Allison offered up an
eloquent prayer, after which Hon.
r. N. Sims, of Ascension parish,
was called to the chair as tempo

Democratic Nominee,
FOR CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION,
II. s. CAMERON,
OF GRANT PARISH.
AN ADDRESS

To the Voters of Grant Parish:
AS you are aware, l am the
nominee of the Democratic party
for the Office of Delegate to the
Constitutional Convention, which
will assemble at New Orleans in
February next.
It is the deliberate and settled
determination of the Democracy of
this State that henceforth the di-
rection of the public affairs of this
commonwealth shall be confded to
the intelligent white citizens. The
forthcoming constitutional conven-
ton will have, as its first and most
important duty, that of SO revising
and guarding and limiting the
right of suffrage as to place it be-
yond the reach of violence, ignor-
ance and corruption.
This is the business which will
be promptly attended to by the
coming convention. There may be
other reforms discussed, but they
are at this time not SO much as un-
der serious consideration, the un-
Outstanding among all Democrats
of all degrees and shades of opin-
ion, being, that it is worse than
useless to attempt anything in the
nature of reform in the face of the
certain defeat that awaits any eff
fort to better present conditions,
SO long as the existing chaotic state
| of the suffrage remains.
I-wish to state positively and
emphatically that l am exactly i'll
line and in full and complete &C.
cord and harmony with the Demo-
cratic party of Louisiana upon the
issue which has just been stated.
So important are the considera-
tons which justify the suffrage re-
form for which the Democracy now
stands, that nothing which | might
say could add any strength to the
argument.
AS already stated the Democrac,
is pledged, nay, is determined tina
hereafter the government and poll
cy of this State shall be shaped b!
intelligent white citizens.
| To all such as favor this unqual
fled proposition l address mysel
and ask their support. From sucl
as are opposed i ask no quarter.
r. s. CAMERON.

Our friend, B. G. Dean, mayor Of
Boyce, seems to be giving extra
good satisfaction in his official ca
pacity, judging from the following
complimentary notice. which we
find in the Boyce Enterprise of
last week:
Mr.. B. G. Dean, our worthy may
or, has been doing some good work
recently putting in new foot bridges
on the sidewalk. They were badly
needed and were built at an econo-
mical cost, and the old ones were
disposed of at q good price. Mr..
Deans administration, so far, has
been entirely satisfactory to our peo-
pie generally. From the beginning
he has given the transgressors to
understand that they must respect
ous-municipal laws. The saloons,
which stood open on Sunday, were
closed after his election. He has
done every thing in his power to
rightly perform the duties of his
Office, and has done it in nice
gentlemanly manner. He is max
ing us most excellent mayor, and
has the good will of all.

THE President has been gra-
cious enough TO honor another
West virginian in the appoint
ment of Judge Snyder, of Charles
ton to a place in the diplomatic
service. We are glad to see
West virginians coming in for a
share Of the good things, but the
President should not stop until
he has recognized the man about
whom we propose to speak.
There is now before President
Mckinley the application OF one
the best men and bravest soldiers
that ever stood upon the soil OF
the Union. His war record is
one that thrills the hearts of the
young men of to day. He was in
the conflict from start to finish.
Five times he was specially men
toned in the reports of his COM
mander to the President for
bravery and courage. The whole
State is Tor him. We allude to
Col. Heary Raymond. Harri-
son county SO far has received
no recognition. Hers is the
sacred soil upon which Loyal
West Virginia" was born. Now
when the war "born" State is
anchored in the Republican col
umn, how beautiful-how signi
ficant it would be to place the
laurel wreath upon the brow OF
one who stood here and partici'
pated in that historic drama.
