A Square Baek-Out.

The public have seen how Ames, of the
Ames crew, did not come to time at the
joint appointment between himself and
Gen. Alcorn, at Vicksburg. At Green
vile he was overhauled by the latter, and
addressed as follows:
GREENvILLE, Miss, Oct. IL, 1873.
SIR am authorized by Governor AIcorn
to invite you to meet him this day in Joint
discussion, and tn make the necessary ar
rangements for the conduct of the same.
am, General, yours truly
General A. Ames.
To this the managers of Addlepate re-
piled, that he must decline a discussion
with Gov. Alcorn, because Maj. Vasser
had not thought proper to meet in dis
cussion, on the same occasion, Gibbs, of
the same gang, in consideration of his
being Ito quote the expression authorized
by Vasser,) ga thief" Of course this
was shallow pretext-for what had the
matters between Vasser and Gibbs to do
with the candidates for Governor. The
truth is, discussion by the four candi-
dates, on the same day, would have been
unprecedented and impossible. But the
excuse served the purpose of Addlepate,
who selected his own ground at Green
vile, went through the form of FIVE
hours speech, and when, from sheer ex-
haustion, he closed his silly babbling, he
abruptly left the ground, in order to
avoid hearing what his competitor had to
say about him. And more than all, he
abandoned the appointments, returned to
the embrace of his keepers in Jackson,
and left Gov. Alcorn in undisputed pos
session of the field. 1t was an ignomin-
ious proceeding. A surrender at discre-
ton would have been more manly.

Morgan, Gibbs, Abbott, and probably
one or two other carpet-baggers are occu-
plying seats in the Senate which they
have vacated by having accepted other
offices of honor and emolument (and en-
tered upon the discharge of the duties OF
the same) incompatible with the Office of
member of the Legislature This fact
Governor Powers having official knowl-
edge of, has formally communicated to
the body of which they pretend to be
members. They have no higher privi-
lege to the seats they are occupying; no
more rights to have their names on the
roll nor more legal authority to partici-
pate in the deliberations of the body !;
no more authority to have their pretended
votes counted than any private citizen
who from motives of his own right choose
to thrust himself on the body as a mem
Der. The first duty of the Senate is to
silence these usurping Senators; and to
declare vacant the seats they are occupy
ing.
Senator Duncan's resolution vacating
the seat occupied by Morgan, as amend
ed by Senator Allen, so as to include the
other cOnspirators, ought to be acted up
on by the Senators before any other
business is taken up. 1t is the para
mount duty and high constitutional pre-
rogative of the Senate to determine who
are its members and to protect the integ-
rity of the body. Lit. Gov Bennett,
presiding officer, has decided this cues
ton affrmatively and the Senate is en-
gagged in its consideration.
PcsTscRIPT.-On yesterday, the Sen
ate passed resolution declaring the seat
of Morgan vacant. Well done.

Nominations for the Legislative
and County Omcers.

We dissent entirely from the opinion of
our Meridian contemporaries, that the de-
cision of the State Convention not to
nominate a State ticket, absolyed the
Conservatives of the several counties from
their obligations to support their nomi-
nees for the Legislative aud local officers.
The question of interfering with the local
organizations of the party never entered
into the discussion relative to the State
ticket. On the contrary, it was strictly
avoided. The intention of the State
Convention was declared in the following
resolution:
Resolved, That it is the sense of the Dem
oeratic and Conservative party of the State,
in Convention assem- bled, that it is inexpe-
dient, in the approaching State Convention,
to nominate State ticket.
We are at loss to imagine how the
inference can be drawn from this resolu-
ton that county nominations of the party
are not to be made, when deemed expedi-
ent by the people of the counties, and
supported in good faith. The rule adopt
ed by the Convention applied strictly tc
State ticket. The policy of the anti
Radicals, as far as we have observed, i:
to make a choice between the opposing
Republican tickets for State officers-tt
encourage divisions in the Radical coun
ties in order to have the opportunity of ;
choice for the Legislative and local off
GERS between competing Republican tick
cts, and, in the Conservative counties, t.
unite upon candidates of the party TO
the Legislative and county officers.
If we were voters in Lauderdal
county, We would support Messrs. Nc
Laurin and Ramsey, not only becaus
they are good men and true, but beeaus
they are the regularly chosen candidate
of the organization of which We ar
members.

Ames. the Rab5le candidate for Gov
ernOr, who comes before the people while
the insults which he -heaped upon them
when wearing his shoulderstraps, are
still ranking in their bOsOms-was never

It was his avocation to SANDER them.

The resolutions adopted by the farmers
of the North West, in convention at
Chicago, viii be found in this paper.
The movement for the correction of
abuses under which the cultivators of the
soil have long suffered is going forward,
gathering strength as it goes. Outnum-
bering all other classes combined, the
farmers, when united and working in
harmony, are able to achieve whatever
they undertake; and their movement will
be strong and resistless in proportion to
the patience with which they have borne
their wrongs in the past.

In the card of Mr.. Z. II. Stiles, else
where published, he denies having voted
for the General Railroad bill in 1870. and
says that consequently it cannot be true
that he received stock in the so-called
Mississippi Road in consideration of such
action. Without taking the trouble to
verify his statement that he did not vote
for that particular measure, we will takeit
for granted that it is true. We did not
charge that he voted for it, although the
inference was reasonable that he did,
judging from the bad company in which
his power of attorney placed him. Now
the question arises, how did he obtain the
stock which he gave authority to be voted
for for his use and benefit by such party
as j. r. Richardson, the self-conceited
corruptionist and briber might designate
as follows:
LEGISLATIVE DEPT OF MIssIssIPPI)
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
JACKSON, June ID, 1870
The bearer, Mr. --, is hereby author
lied, tor and in my name and to my use
and benefit to vote the number of shares OF
stock - subscribed for by me in the
Mississippi Valley Railroad Company OF
this State, for any election of officers, or for
~IrJ osl-er P"I Poeo whatever Son"octod WIN
the interests OF said road. This my power
of attorney to be full and irrevOcable for
one year from date. E. Ii. STILES.
The original of the foregoing document
is in our possession. It ,oas draaUn up IN
the handwriting of Richardson, aOIto came to
Jackson aOhiLe the Legislature aoas IN session,
avoaCedly to buy up members, and pat b1lls
through that could be made ''tO pay for all
concerned" His occupation was lobbyist
and corruptionist, and we find that in
plying his trade he aorote ont aCiHt his OaUs
hand, and E.. H. Stiles signed, the blank
power of attorney to be filled by such
person as the said Richardson should
choose Gov. Alcorn captured the doc
ument by the use of secret service money
together with other evidences Of the cor
rupt agencies employed by Richardson.
How did it happen that Stiles power of
attorney was found among the rest? If
he did not vote for the General Railroad
bill, what did he vote for, what service
did he render, or if no service as Legis-
lator or lobbyist was rendered, how did
he become a party to the Mississippi
Valley Railroad Company, and why did
he sign and place in the possession of
Richardson the document drawn up by
that professional briber and thief?
