AS far as a constitutional convention is
concerned, there is no apparent reason for
it at this time, and there is every reason
against one. Let US put on the "soft
pedal" -Pointe Coupee Banner.
We are opposed to the Legislature call
ing constitutional convention because we
believe large majority of the Democratic
ton at this time; but the politicians are
decidedly restless and seem determined to
get busy in the game of politics, and no
doubt Louisiana will soon have full
fledged constitutional convention with a
"whoop and the ground tore up"
