THR Southeastern Index doe not agree
With the STATESMAN, that three delegates
should be elected from.each Of the thirty
Senatorial Districts and ten from the State
at large. Aswe desire that the State shall
be benefited by the discussion and opinions
Of the press and people, we give the
views'of the Iaden,
In order to make a people content with
their government, thai government should
be brought as near them a. possible. This
the people demand. 10 group together a
dozen counties in enc Senatorial District,
but three Of these counties can have deli
egate resident among them, while al the
others, having together alarge majority Of
the inhabitants, will be represented By men
living in counties remote from them. Nor
win the plan of electing ten from the SAte
at large afford a remedy for these, too,
may all live IN n remote part'of the State,
and have far different interests. The bet
ter plan, in our opinion would %. oieiFe
To- each county containing given popula-
ton, aidistinot representation. independent
OF tho present Senatorial groupings, and
where a county has not the regulate p0pu-
lation, join it 20 one or mon adjacent
4couHties (which together contain the re-
quisite population. II there be 3 surplus OF
population in any county, OF group OF
counties, that surplus may DO added to the
surplus Of the nearest county o. counties,
which will give the requisite ratio for q
floating delegate. In this manner will
the people OF every section Of the State be
represented by delegates living in their
Ownspicinity and not in remote portions Of
the State. It seems to as that with q litllc
pains the Legislature can devise some such
plum for the selection ofidelegates.D i..a1.

PnoPosEp CIVIL RIGHTs CoNPHoAIIsR,--
a Washington letter says: The advocates
Of the civil rights bill finding themselves
confronted by the Executive veto should
they persist in carrying that odious measure
through Congress, are now talking Of
compromise of some Of the moro rad
ical features proposed in tho original
bill, in hopes Of forcing some action before
the expiration Of the present Congress. As
an Offset to the mixed school question they
propose to set apart the proceeds Of the
sales Of the public lands, which shall con-
stitute an educational fund. The amount
thus accumulated they propose shall be dis
tributed among the States on the basis. Of
illiteracy. Under this arrangement the
States Of the South would receive the layg-
est share, and provisions would be incorpo-
rated so as to enforce in an indirect manner,
at the. cost Of the government, what they
have been frustrated in carrying through 70
the sure destruction Of the public school
system Of the United States. The eppo-
nents Of any Congressional interferepce in
the matter Of schools, with the aid Of the
Democratic vote, will doubtless be able 70
defeat any such application Of the public
money. II is wisely feared that tie eppli-
cation Of the money as stated would esfab-
lish a system as extrayagant and glaring Ia
corruption as the defunct Freedman Bu-
reau.o
