Tho Convention that Meets at
Morgan City to-day to iiomin
ate a Democratic candidate tor
Congress in this District has
S
111 line» J/i>un;t lui* «»
very serious and important duty
to perform, and one, I lie response j
bility of which,cannot he avoided, j
Mr. Ackien is a Candidate against I
the field, and has been working
for the nomination with extraor
dinary vim and.energy, striving
mightily tr> force himself upon Ute
Democracy, nolens coleus.
Mr. Ackien has served three
sessions in Congress ; during that
time lie has been before com
mittees of investigation more than
half the time. His conduct has
biought shame upon the people
whom he pretended to represent.
Nota single charge has ever bien
disproved, however it may have
been whitewashed. The vile trash
that hollas distributed amongst
hi» Constituents, which tie has
called proofs of his innocence, has
been worse than the original
charges. Finally wlieu brought
to tho end of his tether he has
through a committee in Congress,
plead the bub;/ act, and scattered J
that report about, the country,
among »ie«, its evidence ot inno.
eence and simplicity. The con
duct exhibited by • him in Con
gress has been continued here at
home in this canvass. One year
ago he went, to Baton Rouge to
the State Démocratie Convention
and endeavored to have the dele
gates from this District nominate
him fqr Congress. Iu this . at
tempt lie failed.
List Spring Mr. Bilden was
nomina ted by the very same del
eguD's whom Ackien importuned
to nominate him a yeaj previous.
Ackien returned and began his
career by contesting the tight of
those delegates to make a uomin
ation. How they could have
made a nomination at Baton
Rouge when they could not do so
at a later date is a mystery that
he failed to explain.
By his efforts in creating dis
satisfaction throughout the Dis
trict the congressional District
committee decided to hold a new
Convention to-day.
At a Mass Meeting of the 'peo
ple of Lafayette Parish some
time ago, in wtiich Ackien, finds
ing things were going against his
wishes, created a disturbance,
which caused the meeting to ad>
journ. Ackien then got together
a few claquer.*, held a meeting
and sent the proceedings to the
N. Ü. Times, a paper ever ready
to do anything that will injure
the Democratic party, and had
them published as ttie .proceed
ings of the Mass Meeting. A
species of brazen impudence rare
ly equaled, and an insult to the
intelligent voters of the Third
District*
He lias had himself proclaimed
Chairman of the Democratic ecu
tral committee of the Parish ot
St. Mary, a place he has as much
right to asthe Mogul of the Indies,
In Frankklin he called a Mass
Meeting, but to his surprise the
honest men of St. Mary went
to the meeting, and by a vote of
07 to 2, denounced Ackien in
terms too plain to be mistaken.
A day or two ago lie pubdsbd
iu the N* O. Times that a double
delegation would be sent from St.
Mary to Morgan City, In ; ns bo
gus central committee in St. Mary
he had himself elected a represen
tative to the State Central Com
mittee from that, Parish, but no
attention to him or his preteiu
tions was given by that commit
tee.
Much has been said about what
Ackien has done for this District
aud the interests of the people
therein. Ail praise for what he
lias done should be given him.
But when a man places himself
voluntarily before the country, as
a fit subject for congressional
whitewashing, forgetting entirely
tiie dignity and seif respect which
a representative of the people
should exhibit, commits errors
once, twice, three times, it is high
time that he should be put in a
position that seems most conge
niai to his low impulses, and
wheie his conduct will not biing
the m unie of shame over the fa
ces of his constituents, when his
name is mentioned.
Let the convention nominate
any Democrat ih the District and
he will be heartily supported by
the party, but to support such ii
man as Ackien not all the nomi
nations that could he made from
Greenland to Patagonia will make
thousands of Democratic voters
in this District cast their votes
tor him.
The Democracy have been
charging the Republicans with
placing bad men in office, men
who are not representative men
and who are simply political bum
mers. Has any Republican from
this State ever been before con
gressioiial committees half the
time he was iu congress ? They
have had tue consideration, at
- .........................u
least, to do tlicir immoral ami ilfo
gut work in such a way that the
whole world did not ki,« w it i.. 1
whole world did not know R in
24 hours afterwards.
The Democratic party owe it to
its members to place none but
men ot integrity, men of honor,
men ot spotless character iu ft out
S of their forces.
Tii.it party took-tip Aekleti and
sent him to Congiess twice.
Has he shown hi in self a proper
representative of Southern Louis
iana ? Has he shown that.digni
'"«''.«'h 1 "
j^y and respect.that the* men who
j voted tor him, consider the bright
j est jewels in a mates character ?
I Away with such men. If he
Away with such
possessed t Sie qualities that the
iepresentat ive of an honest peo
ple should have, would he at
tempt to force his nomination up
on diem, when he knows beyond
all question, that a large portion
of the Democracy will not, nor
cannot vote for him ?

Give a Helping Hand.—
Protector Fire Co. No. 2, will
give an excursion to New Orleans
on next Teusday Sept. 14. This
is the anniversary of the révolu
t ion of Sept. 14, which will be
commemorated in the city on that
day.
The excursionists will be en
aided to witness the luemoiia!
celebrations, have a tine chance
to view the city, enjoy a pleasant
title along the Railroad, aud see
tlie new wharfs lately constructed
by the Morgan's Rail toad. The
members of Protector Fire com
puny have incurred a heavy ex
pense in purchasing and equip
ping their new Steam lire Engine,
for w hich the people of this tow n
owe them a debt of gratitude, not
easily repaid.
In order to aid them in liquida
ting a balance that is not .\et
paid this excursion is given, so
that w hilst their friends do them
a practical service they will Ik* re
paid with a day of pleasure and
gayety. Every one who can go
should accompany the excursion,
and take theii friends along, and
aid the Protector's in a substan
tial manner.
—The Assumption Pioneer de
votes two columns to the defense
of Ackien.
That Mr. Aekleti has done con
sideiable efficient work for tlie
people of his Distiict his boldest'
opponent will not deny. But
something besides eneigy ami
work is necessary to a Reprisen
tativeof an honorable people in
Congress, aud that is something
Mr, Ackien is found wufully defi
cient iu.
The charge of blackmailing will
nor answer. Men who are black
mailed generally put themselves
in position ro be blackmailed.
The justification of the Judiciary
committee was in pleading the
baby act tor Ackien. We want
a mail to represent us : The n ore
defenses are made for Ackien the
worse it will be for him.

•Thibodaux, La. Sept. 3, 1880.
Editor Sentinel :
Allow me to say a few words
in reply to a lengthy eomiminica
tion in last week's Assumption
Bioncer, advocating tin* notuiua
tion of Hon. J. H. Ackien for
Congress.
It is deplorable to see argu
nient s used, by those who pretend
to be our oldest and best, which
would hardi) befit tin* daikest po
riodsof the Waruiotbean era. •
Our Congressman, like Cicsar's
wile, ought to be above suspicion,
and, it is a notorious fact, that, in
tlie minds of a large proportion of
the Democratic party Mr. Aekleti
is considered as little better than
a moral leper.
Mr. Ackleu's successful efforts
in Congress are gratefully ac.
knowledged, but whose fault is it
it he icill get -continuously iuto
hot water ?
No impartial judge will deny
Mr. Jl ill ill's purity uf character.
But, as a clincher, it is asserted
that Mr. Ackien, aud only Mr.
Ackien eau icin , and nis two past
successful! runs are adduced as
proof.
The truth is. that Mr. Ackien
purchased his Republican suppor
ters. If there is any 'shrewdness*
in this, let him have the credit of
it.
Circumstances haw in u c L
changed since then, and there is
every, likelihood of his being
•'overbid" in this race.
True tiieuds he has none in the
Republican ranks, while Mr. Ril
lit» has many, who will.stick to
him through thiak and thin, in
spite ot all inducements. These
tacts ought to be considered by
the convention.
Mr. Ac ule» cannot get the en
tire Democratic, nor any liepubH
can support this time. Any reas
on abb* man must see that.
Buf, to finish, i assert that
Mt. Ackien has pledged himself
to the Republicans to ran inde
pendent.-if not nominated.
Eli less be pledges himself to
stand by the decision ot the Con
vention, how' can. any conscien
tious delegate vote for him ?
Mr. Ackien ought to be forced,
in black and white,- to submit, to
the convention his former pledge
to stump the District for Billiu
ami furnish §1000 for t e earn
paign, in the event of the latter's
nomination, before his claim can
be considered.
