REGARDING SUBSTITUTION.

metropolitan Magazine: "a moral thief
is not legal thief in the eyes OF the
law, and by that token many man is
at home when his rightfti place is in jail.
But the question is: Shall we. as a pub
lie, help this sort of man along? And
this question brings itself home with
peculiar force to the buying public. A
man, by dint of thought and work, IN
vents an article of food, of wearing ap-
parel-a commodity Of some kind. He
carries out his conception; he gets it
ready for the market; he recognizes the
requirements of the law of the land and
patents his article; he invests large sums
Of money i'll letting the people know
about it, and he makes a success. That
is, thousands buy the result OF the
thought of his brain, the investment OF
his money, and his honest, legitimate
methods. Along comes man who has
no brain wherewith to conceive except
to trade upon the other mans success,
and 'Uneeda Biscuit becomes 'Uwanta
Biscuit, Jap-a-lac' becomes 'Jac-a-lac',
'Cottolene' becomes 'Cottoleo, Pears
Soap becomes Peers Soap. and SO OH.
All these limitations are purely and pal
pably intended to mislead the public. to
confuse the buyer. Now this imitator
does not need to invent; he has no call
to invest capital; he goes on the wave OF
popular support created by the man who
legtimately launched the result of his
honest thought Such parasite not inly
lives on the brain and capital of another,
but he also distinctly hopes to get an I'M
deserved livelihood by playing upon the
creduity Of the public. He is a cow
ard, as is proved by the fact that he ln1i-
tates. His article is never so good as
that which he initiates, for the same
moral twist that plays upon name will
play upon the quality of the article AS
matter of fact, he has no need to think
of the quality of his article, for he relies
for his sales on his misleading label;
hence, quality, to him, is of slight inn
portance, and therein lies the fraud

DEFINING 4 CITY BOSS.

Our Syndicated but otherwise es-
teemed neighbor gives this morning an
illustration OF the fact that its magma
ton is beyond control. 1t is regretable
that we ruralites do not know all things,
but one thing we do know, and that
from sad experience, and that thing Is
New Orleans city or any other political
boss OF any other locality.
Therefore when the Times informs us
that Fitzpatrick ct id homo genus are
interpreters of the beliefs of the masses
and get in the lead OF movement they
do not inspire, the contemporary pre-
sumes upon general public ignorance or
is ignorant itself.
The State of Louisiana has been in
f1icted with the character of politicians
which the contemporary gleefully gloats
over, for the past twenty-five years, or
more, during which period the decency
Of the commonwealth has fought them at
every election.
And that decency is still fighting that
character of politician and those who
appeal to them
Mr.. Sanders in his Ward Boss alliance
has simply confirmed popular impress
sions of his own preferments, his asso-
Citations and associates.
A New Orleans Boss is bad enough
as the dominating influence of city
ward. The good citizen there feels the
result and the disgrace of those failing
to stem the Sanders tide determine to
60 with it." But to impress a whole
commonwealth with the political charac-
ter and the political purposes Of Maui
berret a Pujol, Fitzpatrick or Ewing
is sufficient to compel an opposition that
would justify forceful revolution.
Now no one knows this better than
Mr.. Sanders himself. In the statement
made under oath from Vermillion par
ish, in which he was made to say that
all the Ward Bosses of New Orleans
but two were for him. Mr.. Sanders
found reasons for emphatic denial. He
proclaimed he never said it, and he pro-
duced unsworn interviews to prove his
innocence.
If the New Orleans Boss alliance was

only reason.
I!le Times Record has nothing 10 say
- MIR Sanders private character The
air seems full d gossip, bit we know 81
no facts But to a candidate for the high
office Of Governor of the commonwealth
We apply the same reasoning that Caesar
did to his witc-i,ot that he is not guilty,
bat he should be above suspicion,
We think Mr. Theodore 5. Wilkinson
is the nest rlan:
First-Beca,1se he is rot a professional
politician,
Sccond-Because his official record III
Congress shows that he served the State
faithfully and with ability. His work in
Congress shows him to be statesmen!
His official record as collector Of .u>-
toms i'll the city of New Orleans is most
creditablc. His work there shows him
to be capable executive.
hird-Beca,,se he is 4 farmer, d sue
cessful sugar planter. His work here
shows him to be a man OF good business
sense
The Times Record has nothing what
ever 10 say of Mr. Wilkinson's private
character. As far as we can ascertain
there is no. murmt1r or breath against
it.
The third candidate is General Leon
Jastrernski. i man we believe to be good
and sincere. We have not a word TO say
against him.
We believe Mr.. Wilkinson is more
efficient and younger man, and would be
more capable i'll the discharge Of the
duties of Governor, but If General Jas
trcmski is elected we will not complain,

in the past. The convention system
would give them representation by pop
ulation as indicated by Article zoo. quot
ed, and would embrace the negro popu-
lation
1t is in evidence by the records OF the
past that the seventeen Ward Bosses OF
New Orleans and their allies throughout
the State have opposed every movement
for the restoration Of the rights of the
people to self government, as against the
autocratic and the under1ocratlc methods
enforced i'll nominating conventions. If
the Bosses" have yielded to the popu-
lar demand il IS simply for the reason
that they dared not arouse the temper Of
the people
In Candidate Sanders they now pin
their hopes To- the future when thcy
may control and dominate as they have
when conventions gave them the power
Of dictation.
1t is the prospective opror; ntys for
public plumber which has KEEP and has
unified the Bosses. and these Fosses will
keep together i'll a strong compact until
they are swept from Office and power by
all indignant and outraged people
We repeat and emphasize that i
is the firm belief Of The Caucasian.
that if Sanders be the Governor and a
majority OF the Legislature is con
troiable by the Bosses. including Muir
ply J. Foster. the Democratic United
States Senator, who has voted with Re
publlcans that the poll tax, as requisite
Of citizenship, shall be modified and re-
licved OF all the restrictions which safe
guard against venality and fraud. The
poll tax has never been regarded with
favor by the Bosses and their allies. as
it operates against their schenlng.
1t is the deliberate opinion OF The
Caucasian that ii majority OF the next
Legislature can be controlled by the
seventeen Bosses OF New Orleans and
their allies throughout the State, that
the primary election law. now enforced,
will be repealed, and that in its stead
there will be provided ,le old system Of
nomination by convention with rcprescn-
tation on the basis OF population, III
which will be figured the negro, and
which is sustained by the provisions Of
the Articles Of the Constitution OF 1863
quoted
These declarations of anticipatious are
maintained BY the unpopularity mani
tested against the present system by q
class Of politicians throughout the State
Let the citizens of Louisiana who de
sire honest and earnest reform and the
rutu Of the majority in Democratic pri-
mary elections be impressed with the
seIf-eviient fact that the Bosses do not
fancy or favor the primary system of
nomination. but want conventions il
which, as in the past, they will manlpu-
late all nominations and control all po-
litical power
To The Caucasian view there can be
no misunderstanding of the purposes OF
the Bosses. men who are rarely, if ever,
moved by patriotic impulses when po-
litcal power is the issue, and if the past
be a guide for tie future, self-protec-
ton would dictate tie overwhelming de-
feat of ]. Y. Sanders, the representa-
tive Of ali that which is tainted and I'M
desirable in politics.
The issue is now plain. 1t is Sanders
and the Bosses against the people.

porters of Jastremski and of Wilkinson
