neither of them will be as manly as
Tillman, who is proud of his acts. Fos-
ter was governor twice, but never
elected. McEnery was elected as sena-
tor because Pharr was cheated out of
the office of governor, to which he was
chosen.
The scheme of the Southern Demo-
Gratis has been to use all their power
and influence to get the most dis
reputable negroes and white men ap-
pointed to office, 50 as to keep the
party in disgrace. When | tell you that
the white Republican party Of Louis
lana is composed of the most respect
able and intelligent men in the state,
you can see the irony of the situation.

a team, to Recommend appointments!
Surely, our President is in the hands

COMMUNICATION
To the Editor Of The Spy;


When the United States declared war
with Spain the Southern Democracy
resolved to leave no stone unturned to
harrass fhe government and to dis
grace it. if possible. The main feature
of this opposition was to do all In It's
power to discourage enlistments from
the South. and it succeeded, to demand
full quota of appointments among
the higher officers, in which 1t also sue
ceeded for it got more than it's share,
to boom and laud every officer who was
Southerner. and to run campaign
of abuse against all Northerners, ana
il has kept it up to this day.
The men of the party knew, too Wen,
that the mudsiEs Of this section would
fall in line and yelp at every crack or
the Democratic whip.
This fight for Schley is made with
the rebel yell thinking to corral
enough of the Yankee mudsilis to WIN
ont. Notwithstanding that Schley has
been beaten, yet they rely on the
cheap Yankees.
The first officer to receive the atten-
ton of the South was Gen. Nelson A.
Miles. He was held up as cur,
coward a liar and all the vile and
scl1rrilous abuse that could be was heaped
upon him. and yet this officer is the
first to fall into their scheme; Of
course they know that no Southerner
would be so vile a traitor as to take
sides against Schley. nor any Southern
paper They let up on Miles when they
got him silly enough to enter fight
against the President. The Southern
pOlitician has always boasted of his
power to control the cheap and cow
ardlv mudsills of this section. If there
is a senator in the United States Sen
ate who is hated more than another, II
is the venerable senator from this
state.
About the fight that is being made
for Schley. not by him, he has not even
caught on as the saying is, and he has
put his foot right in it just as the
sagacious Southern leaders intended.
There is no way under the sun to
deprive Sampson of the honor Of the
Santiago campaign and battle, save to
steal ii. Every arrangement for the
battle was made by him, even TO plac-
ing Schley and his ship. as was every
other commander and ship. NO one
tries to deprive Schley of the honorable
mart he took in the battle, the records
show that Sampson was the COM
mander, and nothing can change ii,
save that the Southern bull whip may
bring the lick spittles Of Congress in
line for Schley.
If this can be done, every old soldier
of the Civil War may get ready to
doff his hat to the victorious Southern
Confederacy; they have won about
every thing else. and the dispatches
tell us that one wise 90 president is
consulting Senators McEnery and Fos-
ter about the appointments for
Louisiana. Heavensi to think Of such
thing-Old Governor McEnery, the man
who suspended the laws to give his
minions a chance to whip niggers and
stuff and rob ballot boxes, and Foster,
even an improvement, upon McEnery,

ENGELBRECKT CLUB
CHOOSES A LAKE SITE

The members Of Engelbreckt Club
composed of members of Engelbreckt
Court, F. of A, looked over the land
at the Lake suitable for a clubhouse,
yesterday, and decided in favor of the
land next to that on which the Svea
Gille clubhouse is erected. The contract
to build the new clubhouse viii soon
be given out and work started as soon
as possible The new house is to be
one of the finest at the lake. Shares
at $40 each have been issued to the
members and at present 65 shares
have been disposed of. Shares will be
sold only to members Of Court Engel-
breckt Now that it is an assured fact
that the members of the club are to
have a home for the summer months
at the Lake, it is expected that more
members of the court will be willing
to join the club. Membership of the
court is very near the 800 mark. 1t is
intended to make the clubhouse as
homelike as possible and place where
the members can bring their families
in the summer for an outing.

two days.

tinue to play by ear, as is being done
at the present Many Of the members
raised objection to learning the differ
ent pieces by note but they We're over

skaters yesterday afternoon as it well
could be. All sorts and conditions of
men were out-women, too, and myrt-

which is devoted exclusively to anna
teur polo and hockey, was so crowded
that a regular game was impossible
Instead there was dozen or more
coteries of youths, each pushing and
poking about a polo ball or block OF
wood Many of the youngsters have
been successful in getting their Christ

ahead of time.
