A Campaign of Defamation.

Are the people Of the great
State of Louisiana specially wick
ed and depraved, having mani
Tested their depravity by the sort
of men they nominate and elect
to public office?
Is New Orleans, Louisiana's
chief city and the South's met
ropolis, a sink Of iniquity, whose
people have chosen, and are sub
servient to as their public officials,
a horde of robbers, sWindlers,
blacklegs and corruptionists gen
orally?
If such local newspapers as the
Times-D Democrat and the States
are to be believed in the Trades
of accusations and denunciation
which they are almost constantly
printing against the people OF the
state and city, their chief officials
and their candidates for election
to public offices, then those ques-
tions are to be answered in the
affirmative, and the people OF
other states and countries who
may happen to read those savage
arrangements can but believe that
Louisiana is a dreadful country,
to be avoided by all decent people.
What terrible insinuation, If
they are not accusations, those
newspapers and their lesser i'm
itators and satellites are constant
ly circulating concerning the gov
St. Landry clarion. (Opelousas, La.) 1890-1921, 1911-11-18

ernor of the state, it's representa-
tives in Congress, who are candi-
dates for the Offices, against citi-
zens who are candidates for the
offices which the elevation of
some of the others who are ac-
cused will make vacant.
And yet every man of these off
ces and these candidates upon
whom has been poured out sc
much defamation, detraction and
slanderous abuse, is an honorable,
honored and worthy citizen, who
repeatedly elected to high public
stations and intrusted by the peo-
pie of the state with the most
important responsibilities, and
yet they are being bounded in the
shameful manner by the news
paper organs of their political op-
ponents, simply in an effort to de-
feat them, while everybody who
has given attention to the real
facts knows that the citizens so
accused have violated in the acts
with which they are charged, no
law, either human or divine, and
that they continue to be worthy
of the trusts reposed in them by
their felloW-citizens.
This sort of political campaign
ing is shameful, andis a disgrace
to the good people of this great
state, as we'll as to those who in
dulge in it. The American peo-
pie who choose their public ofici-
ais from among themselves must
necessarily know what they are
doing, follows that they get
the sort of public officers and re-
representatives. that they want.
Their officials and representatives
must, as a matter of course, re-
fleet the mind and character of
the aggregate of the people, and to
pretend that in the case of Louis
lana, only rascals and robbers
have been chosen, is an outrage
upon as fine a. people in every
way as their are on the globe.
It is past imagination that those
who are carrying it on can believe
their own words, and every con-
sideration of the honor and good
name of this great state demands
that it should be stopped. Make
a manly fight on grounds Of fit
ness and capability and let the
s~candal-mongering stop.-NeW
