WHAT is REGULAR DEMOCRACY.

/ 1t will be noticed that a mum ber
of newspapers in Louisiana, ha ve
assumed the right of saying what
is, aud what is not regular demo-
cracy, aud note of warning editor
tally couched, has been served on
our United States Senators, that
they have gone far enough, and
il they dare to continue the fight
TO save Louisiana's sugar industry,
they will be severely dealt with by
the people of their State.
No one doubt there are quite d
num- Der of Louisiana citizens, who
like the ''simon pure Democrats, :"
who inspired the Fourth of July
meeting in Ruston, who welcome
"free sugar." and If they had their
way, they would give it to Us right
now. Tha. is the kind of brother
ly feeling they have for their peo-
pie, but fortunately for the State,
the ilk is in very small majority,
and their attempts to shape the
politics of Louisiana has always
gone awry.
Our Senators have made and arc
making the right kind of fight for
Louisiana, and instead of trying
to intimidate them by silly threats,
every citizeus in the State should
be behind them. 1t is not their
fault if the Democratic party has
decided to ignore its sacred pledge;
it IS not their fault that the Pre-
sident Of the United States wants
to break before aud after election
promises, solemnly given; they
are fighting the fight to keep their
State aud their people from being
crushed to death. They know
that free sugar is the work of
the trust and that the people who
believe that they will get sugar
cheaper are mistaken; and know
ing this, they should be permitted
to make the fight to the end with
out any interferences from that

So caustic was the criticism by the
federal grand jury in its final report Of
President Wilson and Attorney Gem
oral McReynolds regarding its attitude
toward former United States Attorney
McNab. who charged that influence in
Washington had gained the postpone
ment Of the trial of the Diggs- -Cami-
netti white slave case and two of the
Western Fuel directors, that Judge Van
Fleet yesterday refused to accept the
report
Instead, the inquisitorial body, Of
which James X Wilson, vice president
OF Wells Fargo Nevada National bank.
IS foreman, was directed to reconsider
its action and frame the report in such
q manner that it would not reflect on
the integrity of the president and the
head Of the department of justice.
That part OF the report objected to
by Judge Van Fleet started by stating
that the federal government had the
reputation for fearlessly and promptly
bringing to trial all persons violating
any Of the laws OF the United States,
and in this respect has been a splendid
example to all of the states of the
union, and has by its uncompromising z
attitude toward wrong doers. caused
the Jaws OF the United States to be
most highly respected. The report con-
tlnues:
Delays and postponements in the
trials of influential defendants in vari-
Gus law courts have for many years
been the cause or grave criticism on
the part of the public, which can not
but view them with distrust and sus-
picion.
Considering the fact that the present
grand jury was familiar with the cases
the postponement of which led to Mr..
McNabs resignation, and the further
fact that such widespread criticism was
being INDUCED in. we have examined
the letters, kilograms and other corre-
spondence papers relative to these post
ponements. We feel that we would be
lacking in our duty to the public if we
did not record our judgment and
opinion thereon.
