TIE THIRD CONG r ESSIONAL
DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM.

We would like for every voter il
the Third District ~ have a copy ol
the platform adopted at Lafayette
on the meeting of the Third District
Nominating Convention. We would
especially like To have every Rcpuh
lican in the district 70 read this
platform and then think over it.
First see whether what is stated III
the platform is fair or unfair. We
all live in South Louisiana and we
are all intercst ed in the prosperity
of our cnuEiry. We atI want the
SUGAR industry 10 be as wealth pro-
duclEg Us it can he made by icgili-
mate means.
We think THAT i man Who believes
in free trade. which is neither a Re
publican or a Democratic doctrine will
ut l.as, he wiling to subscribe 10
the general proposition that we
all want this country, South Louis
lana. 10 be n prosperous country.
We ali will certainly agreed On that,
though We may differ IN our ideas as
to what will he most likcly to pro
dnce that result.
There is no one who will assert
that it is beneficial to Snu,h Louis
lana to annex Hawaii. i country
which raises 4 lot Of cane, the Phil
lipiEe. where every bre,z" that
blows bends Il cane stalk. Porto
Rico and Cuba. On whose soil nature
has lavishly placed every element to
make a prolific yield Of cane. We
do not think that the welfare Of this
country is dependent on tie annexa-
ton of these islands Of the sea. We
believe tina: we can live with them
or without them, but better without
them. So when We look Il: the ques-
ton from purely business OF Han
ma standpoint, there exists no rca-
son why we shGnid support that
party in favor Of their annexation.
But there is another, and we he
lievc a more important reason still.
We think that The methods pursued
in the annexation of this tellitor, is
indctenslhie upon any ground, moral,
religious or legal.
We believe that the incubation Of
such doctrines rs are nov heing |
taught by the Republican party is
suLvtrs:ye Of the Constitution of our
county; VT believe that it IS the !
duty Of every man WHO thinks that
the Republican party has become
disre 2ardfrl Of Our national tradi-
iions ard the spirit of our ins'itu-
lions 10 vote against the party in
