Let the Good Work Proceed.

With almost periodic regularity the
Times d Democrat gives to the public a
blood curdling account OF murder and
assassination occurring in Tangipa-
hoa parish and follows it up with one
more vigorous editorials calling for
tbe enforcement Of law in that parish.
If n one has yet been brought to
Justice as a result Of these well meant
efforts it has escaped Il memory.
The fact Of the business is Tangipa-
hoa has a jos lot of as tough citizens
As ever went unhung and in due
course of the somewhat slow and te-
dious process Of evolution they are
.tshuffling off this mortal COLI as
Shakespeare hath it, and from live bad
men are being transformed into good
dead men (and possibly-if We a
pierce the vel of eternity with the
eve of speculation, we may there
behold them all radiant in the train or
Lucifer.)
In all due respect to the good peo-
pie Of Tangipahoa, for we sincerely
believe there are numbers of people
! there who in the point OF intelligence,
morality, love of law and order, are
the equals of the citizens Of any other
part of the State, we hold that the
Tines Democrat is wasting its ener-
gies in a hopeless crusade against an
evil that is self limited and will cure
itself. Instead Of making frantic ap-
peals to the officers of the law to ar
rest and imprison these midnight
providers and assassins, III city co.
temporary should offer agold media
to the gentleman holding the highest
record and thus encourage as muol
as possible the determination Of thes'
gentry who believe in settling theil
little differences by sneaking into
clump of bushes by the roadside ant
filling the other fellow full of buck
shot as he passes along. When the1
! have been sufficiently thinned out b,
j the above mentioned process, tn
good lawabiding citizens might TAX
a day off, and ~corralling what wa
left hang them. We feel that tn
: remedy we have indicated will no
t meet the sanction of our confrere
but have the pleasing certainty of it
popular endorsement when we get tn
| news of the next assassination i
: bloody Tangipahoa.

We think it very questionable
whether the visiting statesmen who
have been ~stumping the city of New
Orleans in the interest of the regular
ticket had any business there. 1t is
a municipal campaign and the people
of that city should be left to work out
their own salvation. While fully APP
preciating their talent we don't imagine
Bob Snyder, Sam McLaWrason, Tom
Herman and the several other illus
trous gentlemen, can throw a very
powerful searchlight into the political
gloom whereby the voter a see more
clearly under which boss he should
enlist. True, the J~acksonians con-
spire to overthrow the administration.
Butt they triumph in the city cleo
ton, despite the heavy fire of all these
great guns, how much keener will be
their joy, and with what crushing sor-
row will defeat come to the mighty
fallen.

Col. Geo. S. Dodds, a carpet bag
ger from the State of Mississippi is
one Of the Jacksonian orators doing
duty on the hustings in New Or
leans. The other night he uttered
the monstrous lie that Gov Foster
had appointed 10 Of the 50 members
of the State Central Committee" No
one objects to legitimate criticism,
but when it is considered that the
members of the Democratic State
Central Committee are chosen by the
delegates elected BY the people to the
State nominating convention, and are
not appointed at all, it will be seen
that Dodds is q very common place

stick to its original fight; we want a
clean cut independent ticket for which
every white man of this State can
vote, be he Democrat, Republican or
Populist; we are all white men and it
is left to the white men to redeem this
State from ring rule and political cor
ruption. This is a white mans gov
eminent and not a government OF the
Democratic Party. The indicator
News is Democratic to the core; it
believes that the principles of Demo-
cracy are just and eternal; but when
it comes to the question of who shall
vote and who shall not, the only poll

broadcast and most comprehensive
meaning; white supremacy for the
purpose of seeing that every qualified
white voter in Louisiana can have tbs
