PROSPECTUS
OF THE
WEST AND SOUTH.
PUBLISHED WEEKLY AT
CINGIXN ATl, OHIO.

THIS Journal, as its title indicates, will be de-
| voted especially to defining, protecting and
defending the political, social and financial in
terests Of these two most powerful Democratic sec
tons.
Believing that both alike are deeply interested
in a cheap, and responsible Union of consent Be
TWEEN the States with the REMEDIES necessary TO
protectlife, liberty and property, without appeal
ing to revolution, we shall advocate the doctrine
of State Sovereignty and Federal Subordination.
It will teach with Jefferson, in the first Ken
lucky resolution Of 1898, that the federal gov
ernment IS not the final nor exclusive Judge of the
extent of its own powers, because the compact of
Union was made by Sovereign Nations and each
of the States, but not the federal Supreme Court,
nor Congress, nor the President, is the final Judge
Of infractions Of the federal constitution and of
the Mode and Measure of Redress
Believing both alike to be equally interested in
maintaining the social and political supremacy of
the white race over the negro and other mixed
and inferior races We shall advocate the doctrine
that when an inferior and superior race comes to-
gether by the million, III the same country the
latter must of necessity become subordinate to
the former; the only alternative being q war of
races, in which one or both must go to the wall
We believe white supremacy and negro subordi-
nation to be the true relation of the two races
We oppose the degradation of our white laborers
and producers by black soldiers and black suf-
trage, nor are we willing that Western and South
ern society shall be sunk under the weight Of a
race incapable Of self-goyernmcnt.
Every measure not inconsistent with the fore
going principles which is calculated to build up
and unite the West and South in business, social
and political pursuits will receive the hearty CO.
operation Of this paper, without regard to who
may first advance it,
The West and South will give weekly report
