Southern Bourbons Seek Control of Louisiana Elections
The piece warns that Southern Bourbons aim to win all five Louisiana congressional seats next year through fraud and violence. It outlines a proposed law giving the Governor power to appoint parish election supervisors and district judges, enabling manipulation of registration and ballots, with stringent rules to suppress Republican votes and ensure a Bourbon majority. It notes added redistricting aimed at diluting Black votes and cites the assassination of Maj. Blair as evidence of growing lawlessness, urging Northern interest in the looming elections.

Archimedes Lever Quip Echoes Across Time
The piece notes Archimedes as author of the lever saying a long enough lever and strong support could move the world. It cites how even in ancient Greece the statement clashes with physics, while observing a modern view that a person’s leap metaphorically moves the world by throwing off and returning to contact with the ground.
