In another column will be found the
new registration law. The act itself is
cumbrous machinery. The entire system
of registration is wrong, as every measure
must necessarily be which places an OBJ
stacle between the voter and the ballot
box. 1t is a species of inquisition which
ought to be dispensed with as soon as the
bona fide citizens of the State gel control
of their government. The maxim of the
conservative reactionists will be to destroy
every vestige of the machinery which the
Radical usurpers have employed for the
slaughter Of their liberties.
The publication of this law affords a
proper occasion to remind the people of
the several counties of the importance of
taking due interest in the coming cleo
tons. We do not advise immense mass
meetings at present, and the creation OF
great popular excitement to the detri-
ment of the indispensable industry of the
State, but an earnest, quiet, and thought
full consideration of the vital interests at
stake, and determination to reform the
abuses that have disgraced its legislation
for the past eighteen months. During
of the people. 1t has been rule of
force and fraud in contempt Of represen-
tative government.
In selecting candidates for the legisla-
ture, men of approved integrity, ability,
conservative views, and thorough identi-
fcation with the people should be selected.
"Hississippians must rule Mississippi.
In the accomplishment of this end, no
mans ambition-and no mans disincli-
nation to serve the people-ought to stand
in the way.
The real questions of the canvass
should be kept constantly in view. They
are presented in the extravaganza, cor
ruption and tyranny of the Legislative
body which has just adjourned. Taxes
should be reduced and reforms instituted
in all the departments of the State
government. Obnoxious measures ought
to be repealed, and members should be
elected pledged against such schemes as
the Five Million Railroad subsidy-the
Penitentiary job-and the Picked Caval-
ny and Change of Venue denominations.
Some of these measures are stained with
corruption, and others are the intended
instruments of despotism. No side issues
should be permitted to enter into the
canvass. All true patriots must agree to
disagree about such non-essentials as par
ty names, and unite as one man for the
rescue of the Government from the
Wreckers.

They came ,cih money "a heir hands to
bay up votes, and nothing but the near APP
proach of the election ,rhe1l TIE parties to the
contract aeould be put upon trial, sdDed thu
State from the grooming outrage. The
names of these agents are well-known. =
They will swarm with the other vultures
about the capitol if the Radical adven-
turers and their African allies should OBJ
tain control of the next Legislature un-
traIameled by the fear of the consequent
ces, that saved the taxpayers at the last
session. The people should bear in mind
that the pledges Of these INSCRIPTIONS
schemers viii amount to nothing. A
scalawag who has sold himself, soul and
body to the prosecutors Of his own race
and people will not do to trust, no matter
what he may promise. As for the car
pet baggers, their dishonesty and perfidy
are written in the history of their acts,
and by the testimony of Alcorn, who,
while approving most of their infamous
measures, has proclaimed in his messages,
letters, official acts and public declara-
tons their unworthiness of confidence.
The only safeguard is in the election of
members who are identified with the peo-
pie in interest and sympathy, and whose
character for integrity is above suspicion,
and such men cannot be found in the
Radical party. Adventures who are
known to have sold their votes, and who
have obtained office VIGOROUSLY for the
purpose of trade and speculation, will
not permit what they hold to be the trife
of pledge of honor to stand between
them and the accomplishment of their
chief aim.
The weekly clarion. [volume] (Jackson, Miss.) 1863-1882, 1871-05-25

Sunday we overheard a conversation
between two intelligent colored men upon
the all-absorbing tax question. In which
one of them remarked that ''these fellows
SAY the heavy taxes don't hurt the
"eolored folks because they don't own
"any property, but | know better, for if
"they put heavy taxes on the white
people when they make contracts with
Gus they deduct from our wages enough
ito help pay the taxes"
That colored man knew what he was
talking about. If the negroes will vote
for thieves who have come into the State
to enrich themselves upon the labor and
property of others, the white people
should see TO it that they bear at least a
portion of the burthen which they volun-
tarily place upon themselves and the
whole State.
