How IT WoRKs.-Louisiana is furnishing us a sample of what will be the workings of negro political equality in every place where the negroes are the most numerous portion of the population. Louisiana was recon structed under the law of Congress, lt elect cd a Convention, which framed Constitu- tion, which was adopted by the people. Un- der that Constitution State Legislature was chosen, the controlling portion being the black element. The yery first act of the ma jority was to ignore the provisions of the Constitution made by the people, and to trample upon the rights of the minority So outrageous was the conduct of the majority that the United States military had to be called out to compel them to respect the laws they had made themselves. For three years the Army of the United States has been used to force negro suffrage upon the country henceforth it must be used to compel the ne gro suiiragers to behave themselves, obey their own laws, and respect the rights of the minority. This is reconstruction and repub- lcanisIH, with vengeance $. Y Cal

 Thank you, friend Courier, for the compIi- ment, about our "spirits," etc. Out here in Arizona, we occasionally have to do things we do not wish to, such as printing on brown paper, but no matter what may be the color of our paper, the color of it's politics never changes, and we only wish we could say as much for the Democrats of this Territory who voted for Mccormick, hyperborean saint of the Wendell Phillips school

The old wcather-hen says she has received pri- yate letter from this Territory which stated that Mccormick was elected by larger vote than was ever before received by a candidate in this Territory, and that "the rebuke is severe one to the ARIZONA MINER and the Secession element of the Territoryn lIa, Ina, Ina. What joke. Rebuke, indeed. Why, instead of the result of the late election being a rcbuke to the MINER, it was n victory for it. North of the Gila, where large majority of the white people of the Territory reside and where the MINER is published, McCor- mick received less than one-third of the votes, although he resided in this section over four years. IL sickens us to hear an old dsunion sheet like the Alta talk about Secession ee mentn You old sinner how you crawfish and show your ignorance, when you say that Mccormick is "a gentleman of correct in stnctsn Bless your dear soul, Mccormick did not claim to be a Republican in the can yass, and most of the secession element you prate about, voted for him. In fact, the Re l publican party of Arizona, as well as the Democratic, look upon Mccormick as a guer- rilla in politics as well as in everything else ! He was the candidate of men who have grown
 rich from off fat government contracts and
 cheap Mexican labor, and they elected hin
 by illegal Mexican votes Mccormick knows,
