EDITORS CLARION:
Please answer one question through
your columns. Did Col. Lamar advocate
the Civil Rights Bill? or has he in anv
way either in his eulogy on Sumner or in
any other manner favored it?
READER.
We reply that Col. Lamar has never
advocated the Civil Rights Bill-never
indicated his countenance of it directly or
indirectly, in his Sumner, nor any other
speech; and that he invariably recorded
his vote against it on every test question,
In the House of Representatives. His po-
sition was never questionable.

To judge correctly Of the real~import
and Specification of the popular verdict
in these great States of the West, We
have recured to the platforms on which
the victorious party went into the con-
test and won It's signal and decisive vic
tories.
First, let US say to the colored people
of the South that these victories mean
no invasion of their rights as freemen,
and no interference with the guarantees
embraced in the 18th, 14th and 10Th
constitutional amendments. These are
adjudicated and settled questions. But
they mean opposition to the civil rights
bill by which it has been proposed by
unconstitutional and illadvised leglsla-
ton to regulate the social relations of the
people of both races. That bill origina-
ted in the brain of a misguided enthu-
siast and was left as fatal legacy to the
party which had repudiated him and it
has been seized upon by fanatics and
demagogues to produce sectional and
race strife in order to advance their own
selfish ends.
These Northern victories also mean
opposition to the corrupt and extrava-
CANT legislation which has keptin fever
of discomfort, and condition ofdistress,
the people of the Southern States for the
past nine years. They mean that it is
wrong for the National Government to
connive at the plumber and oppression of
the intelligent, tax-paying classes of these
communities, and that an Adminstra-
ton ought to be installed at Washington
which will no longer tolerate this policy
of cruelty and injustice.
That we may not be suspected of MIS-
construction, we will cite the language of

President Grant and the Third
Term.

WHsHINGToN, Oct. 26th.-The Ma
tional Republican, which has been advo-
eating the third term for President Grant,
says to-day: 1.-THE Presidency, during
another term, would have few attractions
for him. 1t would confer upon him no
further or higher honor, and there is no
reason, therefore, to suppose that he de-
sires it. On the contrary, his natural
tastes and inclinations are known to be in
the direction of domestic quietude and

OHIO PLATOON.

Resolved, That while a0c admit the equal
ity of all persons before the lac, we protest
against the attempt that is being made by
the Radicals in Congress to enforce sOcid
equality By unconstitutional pains and pen
alties; and we call the attention of the
voters of Ohio to the fact that, although
our Supreme Court unanimously decided
that our statute, which prOvides for separate
schools for aUIaite and c0Lored children, is a
constitutional law, and this decision Is
supported by recent judgments of the
Supreme Court of the United States
yet the civil rights bill (so-called,) which
passed the Senate at its last session, and
is now pending in the House of Repre-
sentatives, seeks to overthrow our statute,
and in disregard and defiance of it to
compel mixed schools in Ohio, by the
infection of severe criminal punishment
and civil penalties upon all aVho resist that
unconstitutional attempt.
Now, be it remembered that the peo-
pie of Ohio by majority of twenty
thousand have solemnly registered this
protest, and denounced and repudiated,
and pledged themselves to aid in reform
ing, the abuses for which the dominant
party was "arraigned."
Not less emphatic is the judgement
which has been pronounced by Indiana,
after calm and deliberate consideration
of the matters presented to her people.

INDIANA PLATFORM
f1lIayUiuor oX-fraetS arc oODin6

the following extracts are copied:
1t is the opinion of the Democrats of
the State of Indiana, in convention assem-
bled, that the present Administration has
proven itself unworthy of the confidence
of the people of the United States, in
proof of which we submit the following
facts
Ii has ove:thrown, by force, the gov
eminent of the State of Louisiana, and
prevented the officers elected by the peo-
pie of that State from taking the positions
to which they were chosen; and, for party
purposes, has sustained the usurpipg
State officers in their unlawful seizure of
the government of the State.
1t has corrupted the sources of public
justice, by squandering money through
the department of justice, to aid IFS party
in North Carolina, Arkansas, and other
States.
The weekly clarion. [volume] (Jackson, Miss.) 1863-1882, 1874-10-29

The Republican party must be held
responsible for these acts of the admins
tration it placed in power, and for the
Credit Mobilier frauds, the enormous in
crease of salaries, and the Sanborn con-
tracts, ,chle as the oppressor Of the 'chite
people of the South, and as the origin of the
corruption that aceighs IKE an incubus upon
this country, It deserves the severest cordem-
nation.
Therefore this Convention asks the
people to again intrust the Democratic
party with the administration of the State
and country upon the following princi-
pies:
The weekly clarion. [volume] (Jackson, Miss.) 1863-1882, 1874-10-29

Sirth-W We are IN tdror OF q liberal sys-
tenn of education for the benefit Of the negro as
tCeU as the ochite CT ldren of Indiana, but ace
are opposed to the n,irture of the black and
eCl,ite races Ia our public schools on other ed
ltcatioRal institutions.
Seventh The Girl Rights bill recently
passed pending in the House of Repre-
sentatives presents an issue of vital mo-
ment to the American people, and calls
upon them to decide at the ballot-b box
achether or not they ,oiU be coerced to the Gb-
solltte social as aceU as political equality Of
the negro race Wih themselves. We view
with adherence this attempt on the part
of the Federal Government to take con-
troll of all the schools, colleges, churches,
hotels, railroads, steamboats,, theatres.
and graveyards, for the purpose OF e8tdb-
6shing social equality and enforcing It aellder
enormous penalties of zines, damages and
imprisonnlentS. We arraign Senators Nor
ton and Pratt before the people of 1ndi-
ana for their votos in favor of this afro
cious measure and toe shall ask for i1sdict-
melat against them at the hands Of their con-
stituents. acton, they hare nisreprcsentcd.
In these declarations, there is nothing
vague noS~equivocating. n judgement
was asked The trial is over. And the
verdict has been pronounced in thunder
tones. In defining the cause which he
represented, Gov Hendricks, the illus
trious Tribune of the people, struck the
keynote of the canvass, when, in his
opening address to the Convention which
adopted this platform, he declared that
''the dead issues of the past do not fur
"nish our animating principles. We
''have turned our backs on the past. We
''stand in the present, and look forward
''to the future"
These victories are the forerunners of
still greater ones, if the Northern mind
is not disturbed by apprehensions of a
''new rebellion" which the Southern
whites can prevent if they will exercise
patience and forbearance. What is most
needed of all things, now, is rest from
the agitation of sectional issues; and q
determination on the part of the people
of the reconstructed States to furnish no
pretext for the manufacture of tout
RACES" for the use of demagogues who
will hail them as a godsend and turn
them to partizan account.
