SERIOUS DIVISION IN THE PARTY JL Report Was Adopted to Foree the Col lection of the Bounty on the Grow ing; Cane Crop—To Aid Re- pnblloan Congressmen, l A ( New Orleans, Sept. 6.—The tugur planters’ conventino iu this city toitny was tlio most remarkable gathering In many years, and the ilrst serious break in the Democratic party In twenty yenrs Is now uctually threatened. The convention declared in favor of an alli ance with the Republican party on na tional Issues and two, and possibly three, congesslonal districts comprising the sugar region aro endangered to the Democrats. There were probably 300 representative men present ut the con vention. and, us nearly all of them are men of wealth, with large Iniluence and with power to control a considera ble following, the action they have taken cannot be underestimated. The meeting was called to order by Richard McCall, one of the lending planters of the Third district, and Mr. K. N. Pugh of Asceuslon, a near rela- \ tlvo of Chief Justice Nicltolls, wus made \ oliairman. i Among those who participated In tho discussion wero Mr. \V. II. Howell, ft Tiroiu.nent Democrat of I .a Kourche; JH. P. Kemoehan, who was a naval olll- 5jer under Cleveland; Albert Rstopinal, -democratic state senator, who may be _:Uo planters' candidate iu tlie First dis trict; G. P. Anderson, a wealthy planter /of Plagucmlue; Jnmes A. Ware, Dem ocratic representative In the legisla ture from Iberville; Col. J. R. Hill, Capt. J. N. Pharr and others. Mr. John D.vmond was the only speaker who strenuously opposed sc- ccssion from the Democratic party. Messrs. Howell, .Weeius, Kernnclicn and Wilkinson, brolher of Collector Wilkinson, were appointed a cumihittcb to propose a plan for the collection of the bounty on this year’s crop. The committee reported and their re port was adopted. . The convention then took up tho po litical question. Messrs. McCall, Pugh, Keruocnan, listop.nal. Ware and others advised on alliance with the Republi can party. They said that they had been betrayed by the Democrats and that the only hope of protection for su gar lay in n Jolu.ng of. hands.with 4he- • Republicans. They realized the full Im port of breaking with the Democratic party, but, feeling that the negro-ques tion was no longer an Issue, and- that the white moo would forever govern the Southern country, they said they . had reached the conclusion that self- preservation required an allUlutlon with a party that would give them the pro tection necessary for- the prosperity uf tlie Industry which Is the backbone of the state. The following committee was ap pointed ou resolutions, and It may bo said that the gentlemen named aro among the wealthiest and best known In tlie state: Messrs. J. A. Ware, D. L. Monhut, Charles Matthews, Louis Clark, B. A. Oxnard, Cliarles God- clmux, G. 1’. Anderson. D. S. Ferris, T. J. Sully, Cliarles Magumls, Wyley Thompson. John Dymond, W, H. Glial* fee, G. Breaux, Hou.we Dugas, W. P. '.Flower, Gen. W. II. Behand, T. SuHie Anti Capt. J. N. Pharr. The commltteo reported t-laborato resolutions Betting forth that while tho people of Louisiana and the planters for many years liavo been loyal to tho Democratic party through victory and defeat, but that the state had been be trayed and a blow struck at its chief Industry by that party that threatened Its absolute rulu, and that tlie nomina tion of protection candidates and tlu-lr clectlou had become u necessity. ' The resolutions were adopted by a rising vote. It was decided to meet again on September 11 In New Orleans, wl.en the plans of the sugar rhtuters will be perfected. It was also decided to .nominate a candidate in the three sugar districts and to alllllate v/lth tho Republicans. The report of tho committee on reso lutions, which was adopted at tho out- scl. declares: . “A crisis has arrived in tho politics of our state. Very many of us who have for many years co-eporatcd with the Democratic party and have loyally supported Its candid-ites, have done so with the belief and tvlto the assuranco that that party would maintain a fair protection on tlie products grown by its. W.- ha-l p.-raiiul and positive ns-ur- anecs from ihe Denes-ratic candidate for the presidency, Grover Cleveland, during tbc late presUlent.nl campaign, and we likewise li:nl tlie personal as surances of the leaders of the Demo cratic party to the same effect.” 8TRIKERS RETURN" TO WORK.

He appealed to nil, Including our colored citizens, to do their own 'thinking, aud not allow thernHolves *to be led uatr.iy with the prumi.'ws of a now and untried party. The country had, he said, two great inimical purtle»- tin* one In favor of protccllon 'to trusts and other monop olies; the other contending for the re- pt al cf those Iniquitous protection tariff laws, Which favored the* truBts and corporation#. M.iJ. Bacon said we hud already giuic d much, nnd would, be fore long, fulfill every pledge made by our jxirty. (He said we must stand shoulder to Nhoulih'r; that the only hope for tho South and Ihe whole nation WM within tho ranks of the Democratic party, who** motto was, “JunUco to all nnd KjH*oial favors to none."
