A GOOD SIGN.

We cannot but impress upon the diftere1
Democratic political organizations of thi
State, and upon the people generally, the in
portance of joining in the very proper deman
made by the Second Ward Auxiliary Demo
cratic Club, upon the de facto for the appoint
ment of an equal number Of Democrats an
Republicans as registrars and supervisors.
The people OF this State may exert them
selves as vigorously and periodically as the
please they may perform all the duties whicl
devolves upon good citizens and vet. if the,
fail to secure fair registration, all else will b.
| of no avail
They should impress upon the de .tacto tn,
necessity, for his own sake, of securing thi.
fair registration.
Mr.. Kellogg has officially pledged himsel
| to do all that is in his power to procure fail
registration, and, therefore, cannot consist
emily refuse this just demand.
Let the people, then, stand mp to this de-
mand as the people of England stood up to
claim their magma ch.rta from King John
and we will certainly obtain the same success
~ 40 iCAblCu tAAiit OOu1 thoroughly QlIeu
the men who dared demand so much and who
possessed the manliness to insist upon theil
rights. Perhaps William of Louisiana ma,
entertain the same feeling for the Democrats,
but they should not fail, for that reason, .o
insist upon their just demands.
