should be consulted rs 10 right Of way.
The committee should seek public
meetings at Lowisville, Washington,
Richmond and Rocky Comfort, all OF
which should be pre-arranged and due
notice given Of them in advance. Con
sidering the heat and the distance TO
be Travelled, and the amount Of work to
be done, the business Of the committee
will mol be a sinocure. The work
should actively begin here-and, We
think, by an expression of opinion,
through a grand railroad meeting
which should be called by an active
and efficient committee Of correspon~
dcnce. At our meeting we might Sc
cure the attendance Of Senator kellogg
and Flanagan, who have been able
advocates Of our material interests
Gen. McClecry is how at home, and
ready and anxious to.do all he can to
promote our railroad enterprise. We
must secure the charter Mt the next
session, and begin actual construction
next year. We have no time to throw
away.

The Red River Post of the 18th inst,
IN referring to the militia parade at this
place on the 4th, says:-"Previous to
the parade, som threats had boonmado
by constitutional GROWERS, that "if the
nigger militia attempted to march
through town, there would be blood
shed.' We are happy to chronicle,
however, that good sense prevailed and
the Empire wa, pca,e."
Such ISLANDERS as tho above are very
common, and would not deserve atten-
ton, but for the fact, that to utter and
circulate them is part of the radical
clcctionecring scheme, to scare negroes
ana timid whites into the support of
the party in power. If newspaper ed
itors would cease to make assertions
that have no foun dation in fact, the
country might be considerably benefited
thereby; but then we readily admit that
certain party would find its lease
ofpower expired.

CARo AND FULroN.-The Little
Rock Gazette says: Colonel A. T..
Robinson has recently returned from a
business tour north, having connection
with this railroad enterprise. From him
we CLEAN several facts that will prove oil
interest to our readers. The contract
for building the Cairo and Fulton rail-
road has been given to Mosscrs. Mande'
Vile C. Allen. The road from here to
the Missouri state line is to be compile
ted by the first of June next. 1t there
connects with the Iron Mountain road
from Saint Louis, which will be COM
pletel to the same point by that time,
giving us connection with st. Louis al
most on an air line. The road from
here to Fulton is to be completed by
the first of January, 1914.
The first twenty miles from here
north have been completed for some
time. The grading for the next thirty,
taking the road to Little Red river, is
done, and the road tied. The iron is
here also, and as soon as the weather
gets little cooler, track laying will
commence. The grading party are now
between Little Red river and Jackson
port. Work is to be commenced at
once on the bridges across Little Red
and White rivers.

Mr.. Emerson is often quoted in Eng
land for a statement which he is said to
have made there in many distinguished
circles, atht in America the people Of
character and cultivation keep ont of
politics, and turn all that business over
to adventures, nobodics, and rouchs.
If that were correct description of the
present state ofthingsamong us it would
be the sadlost symptom Of national
doom. How far is the description true
to the life that now is? As dcscrip-
ton ola tendency that does not exist in
this country it is too true. OF course it
IS an exaceration Of the case; for there
are multitudcs Of honest and cultivated
people in every state who do interest
themselves activelyin politics. And yet
it remains true that many pcople-thc
majority, we uspect-take sweet and
secret credit 90 themselves whenever
they say-"O, we are not politicians y
But iftherc is any one thing that every
decent American ought to be, it is a
politician. We are all partners in n
great commonwealth, and we cannot
avoid politics without Sinking our high
est duty in the most dastarlly fasion.
We greet every sign Of a better and a
more patriotic spirit. And for this rca-
on we are glad to see that the Hon.
Tho. Russell is next season to have 4

We ask the particular attention Of
the conservative people of Hampstead
and the adjoining counties to the fol-
lowing resolution Of the joint conyen,
ton Of the different conservative demo
cratic committees of the state.
''Resolcei, that the people of the state
be, and are hereby earnestly requested
to give the most liberal support
to the different democratic and
conservative organs in the state, to the
end that the freest information may
be dilIused among the people: and our
party papers, Notwithstanding the pre-.
scriptive legislation which debars them
from all official patronage, be enabled
TO continue vigorous warfare against
radicalism."
We have no idea of, or disposition
TO, beg for our support, but as the
representatives of the people have
made this recommendation, we feel
that we are entitled to the benefit of it,
and that we have right to lay it be-
lore our friends in this prominent
manner, for their consideration. We
want subscribers and patrons, and do
think that the earnest support and en-
couragement of the people are due us,
but we intend to give value received
for every dollar we get.

WE publish this week on our first
page, the address of the central cxccu-
tive committee to the conservative
people of the State, to which we ask
careful and thoughtful attention. II
is time to prepare for the coming cam
paign. 1t is time that the people were
beginning to organize for the great
battle to be fought next year. Organ,
ization and harmony are the two prin.
ci!al requisites to success in the coming
conflict. Our opponents are thor
oughly organized and drilled. We
must be prepared to meet them.
As we said last week we will soon
probably next week. publish a call
for a county convention. in that
convention we want to see the people
represented. We want to see the
bone and new OF the county interest
themselves in this campaign, and we
want to see the gray-haircd citizens of
the county coming out and sounding
their voices across our hills and hol-
lows, speaking earnest and cheering
words to each other and to the youth
of our county, their sons and sons-in-
law, their nephcws and grand>sons,
urging them on to the patriotic strug-
gle, and 10 manly and honorable VIC
tory. Good friends, arouse yourselves,
and the day ofour dolivemnco draws
nigh.

The Weekly Washington telegraph., 1871-07-26

BE on Your GUARD.-The follow
ing article from the Gazette, Of recent
date, deserves the careful consideration
of every conservative voter in the
country. We do not believe that the
assessor of this county is party to the
fraud, but as he holds his Office at the
sunerancc of the Governor, he may be
removed whenever he refuses to work
in the harness prepared for him, and as
this swinile appears TO be apart Of one
stupendous whole, it is well to deposited,
and continually vigilant:
Under the election and registration
law passed by the late general assem-
bly,, county assessors are made regis
trars, subject to removal by the COVER
nor at his will and pleasure. This
last clause was added so that it the
officer failed to do as directed by the
reigning powers, he could be decaPlta"
ted instantor. With this law staring
them in the face, it is to be bepresumcd that
each of them will be entirely obcdient
to the will of the governor. There IS
clause in that law-and the
only releeming feature in it, that we
desire to call attention to. The regis
tration of 1870 is to remain as then
made 1t is not necessary for those
who were then registered to get re-regls-
tered next year. All who did not
register last year are required to do so
before they will be permitted to vote.
We have briefly referred to these
provisions of the law for the purpose
of warning those who hold certificates
Of registration to be careful to preserve
them. The same care should be taken
of them rs one would keep a valuable
treasure. Every certificate lost may
cost us n vote, from the fact that We
have no assurance that the registrar
will issue a new one in its place. 1t
may be worth its weight in gold. Up
on it may hang the future destiny Of
our State and party.
We have been induced to make these
remarks from the fact that information
has come to us from several counties
that the assessors are going around
among the more ignorant class Of the
people those who are not familiar
with the law-tclling them that there
will be new registration next year,
and that they desire their old registra,
ton papers. Those who 10 not know
any better believe this and surrender
their certificates. From the informa>
ton we have we are satisfied there is Il
well-laid scheme Of this kind. BE
on your guard and whatever you do
kee3 y0ar registration certificate dePos-
ted In a safe place. We trust the
democratic press oft State will ven
tilate this matter thoroughly,
