Dear Sir:
Vive Beauvais! Vive le Parti de La Fayette! À bas les grands blancs! À bas l'ancien régime!
If there is to be any future for La Louisiane, it is to be found in the industrious class of her free men.
Certainly some few may grow quite rich from others' bondage, but never will our shores attract the number of immigrants needed to open the West or challenge the fecund Americans without the promise of a life at a respectable wage.
For the safety of the republic, we require an end to slavery and a tarriff!*
Your faithful reader,
Léolin DE LLOYD,
Conseiller d'arrondissement IV, Nouvelle-Orléans
[*For all I know, in-game, all your liberal parties are free trade & all the conservative ones protective. IRL, though, export-driven agrarian communities like the South were uninterested in protecting their native manufactures & feared trade wars. It was the progressives and liberals who pushed through protective tarriffs, with the planters kicking and screaming all the way.]
