The entire press, including the limes, sympathise with the piople of Louisiana, but are almost equally unanimous in the opinion that President Grant's previous previ-ous course on this question will compel com-pel him to support Kellogg by armed intervention. The World and Sun think the Mcnery government had better be left to control the State. There has been no suggestion by any paper of any way out of the trouble short of the restoration of Kellogg or or letting McEnery alone. . |
