The latest Democratic dodge in Storey
county was General Williams going to
the registry agent and trying to pursuade
him that registration was all illegal
The Justice did not see it in that light
and Williams went off as mad as wet

Assessing Merchandise.

The following is an extract from let
ter from mercantile firm in North Mis-
sissippi:
The Assessor of our county requires
merchants in addition to former assess
ments to give In all merchandise brought
into the State from January 1st, 1873, TO
March 1st, 1874, thereby causing US TO pay
at least FIVE times the usual tax-which
will break every merchant IN the State.
Does the Assessor of your county require
this of your merchants? The Assessors
claim to be acting by instructions from the
Auditor and Attorney-General
We are not apprised Of the course pur-
sued by the Assessor OF this county, but
have obtained from the Auditors office
the opinion of the Attorney General on
the subject of assessing merchandise,
which the Auditor has communicated to
assessors as the rule for their guidance
throughout the State. This rule is en-
braced in the following extract from the
opinion:
Formerly, only the property owned on
the first day Of January was taxable, now
it embraces The period Of two months,
and until listed by the Assessor. There
| is no law eXempting merchants from
taxes. They should be taxed precisely
as other citizens, being careful not to tax
their property more than once in the
same year. The rule applicable TO other
property should be applied to merchan-
disc, as far as practicable. If you adopt
the rule OF merely taxing the "money
employed in merchandise" (for which /
find no law you would fail to tax the
goods or solvent credits, such as notes
and accounts, and yet it would be unjust
10 tax both. They should be assessed on
the merchandise on hands at any time
embraced in the two months but not up
on all the goods money and solvent cred
its that have passed through their hands
during the time That would be oppres-
sive, for instance, 4 person holds a solvent
credit the first of January, $40, 600 (tax-
able, with that he buys a stock Of goods
$50, 600 (taxable,) he sells the goods for
money, S20,0 Qaxable.) 1t was not
contemplated that he should pay on all
the three items, $50, 600. The better
rule may be stated thus, merchant has
on hand the first of January, goods
amounting to $40, 900. He sells by the
first of March $4,000, then he should
be assessed on goods $4,000, and on
notes, accounts and money SO, 600, or in
the same ratio. The Legislature never
intended that property should pay taxes
more than once in the same year. I'm
der the Act of 1874, referred to, suppose
horse to be sold and change hands sew
eral times in the two months 1t is not
expected that each person who has been
the owner of the horse, should pay tax
on him. 1t is immateiial whether goods
are paid for, or whether they are bought
on credit The fact that property is not
paid for, by the present owner, does not
exempt it from taxes.

The Editor.

Some people estimate the ability Of a
newspaper and the talent Of its editor
by the quantity Of original matter 1t is
comparatively an easy task for a frothy
writer to pour out daily a column Of words
words upon any and all subjects His
ideas may flow in one weakly, washy, ever
lasting food, and the command Of his
language may enable him to string them
together like punches Of onions, and vet
his paper may be meager and poor con
Germ. Indeed, the mere writing part Of
editing paper is but small portion Of
the work. The care, the time employed
IN selecting, is far more important, and
the tact of good editor is better shown
by his selections than anything else, and
that, we know, is half the battle But,
as We have said an editor ought TO be
estimated, and his labor understood and
appreciated, by the general conduct of
his paper-its tone, its uniform consistent
course, its aims, its management, its
dignity and its propriety. To preserve
these as they should be preserved is
enough to occupy fully the time and at
tention Of any man. If to this be added
the general supervision of the newspaper
establishment, which most editors have to
encounter, the wonder ishow they find
time to write at all.

when it says our only objection" to
Sherman is g his military record on the
Union side" We did not say one word
about his military record in the above
paragraph. But the CLARION continues
at great length TO show that we have
voted for Seymour, Blair, Greeley and
Brown, all of whom were as bitter he
publicans as Sherman. That is true
We did vote fer them, and they were, at
one time, as bitter Republicans as Sher-
man. But We voted for them as choice
of evils, and after they had pronounced
against the bitter and vindictive policy
of their party. Sherman is still in full
fellowship with the Radical wing of the
Republican party.-Brandon Republican
We stand corrected. Certainly We
did not intend to misstate the position Of
the Republican. The tenor of its article
conveyed the impression to our mind that
its objection was to Gen. Sherman's mill
tary record, which we insisted would ap-
ply as well to Gems Grant, Blair or any
other Union soldiers
The Republican is in error in regard to
the politics of Seymour, who was a
staunch Democrat, albeit the "Great
War Governor" Blair in former days,
abandoned the Democratic party to join
the Abolitionists, but he had returned to
his first love and was pronounced Dem
ocrat when he was nominated.
As TO Gen. Sherman's politics, to which
our neighbor objects, we never heard
before that he was Republican, much
less in full fellowship with the Radical
wing" He was not politician Of any
sort before the war, and since the war
it is not recorded that he has taken part
in politics We only know that he formed
the treaty of peace with the South
evincing the highest order of statesman
ship-which metthe approval of Jefferson
Davis, Breckenridge and Joe Johnston,
pledging the federal Government neither
to prosecute nor to prescribe citizens Of
the South for the part they had borne in
the civil war The ratification Of that
treaty would have spared all the troubles
and expressions which have resulted from
a different course.
As to Gen. Sherman's availability in
concentrating the elements of opposition
to misrule and extravagant administra-
ton, we remembered that parties after a
series of disasters had sometimes broken
the solid ranks of well-trained organi-
cation by adopting candidates outside of
the chronic hacks For example, the sue
cess of the Wings with Gen. Harrison in
1910, and with Gen. Taylor in 1913;
and last, but not least, the Republicans
with Gen. Grant in 1S68-who though
previously a Democrat, has served the
Republicans a good purpose in carrying
out their measures.
And now, protesting that we did not
dream that the little matter of halfdozen
lines would kindle so great a fire, we will
dismiss the subject-at least for the pre-
sent. 1t is long time before the next
election.

Col j. Nj. Norment, late of the Lee
County Journal, Democratic has dis
posed of the materials of his paper to a
Company (of whom he will be the head
of Republicans in Oktibbeha county, for
the publication of the official journal of
the county. 1t will be called the Starke-
vile Wing.
MIR. Magee of the Brookhaven Citizen
Democratic has sold his paper to a
Company of Republicans, of whom Col
j. b Deason is the principal, and it will
hereafter be conducted in the interests of
that party. Mr.. Magee states that he
remains steadf.st in his Democratic faith.
Messrs. Capers and Bosworth, of the
Canton Citizen, which has also been an
able and, we may add, slightly Bourbon
ish Democatic paper, have announced
their retirement, and that the paper will
hereafter be Republican. Their success
sors are introduced as high types of
Northern gentlemen. We hope they
will not put their type to bad uses. These
changes are all attributable TO the late
printing law.

The Illinois Republicans in their State
Convention gave Temperance legislation
baek-handed blow by declaring their OPP
position ito interference by law with the
habits, tastes, or customs of individuals,
except to suppress RIGHTEOUSNESS or pre-
serve the peace and safety of citizens of
the State"
On the other hand the Indiana Repub-
lcans declared themselves in favor Of
such legislation as will give majority
of the people the right to determine for
themselves in their respective towns,
townships or wards whether the sale of
Intoxicating liquors for use as bever-
age shall be permitted therein, and such
as will hold the vendor responsible for
all damages resulting from such sales"

The Picayune states that " the indie
pendents" have inaugurate2 a movement
in New Orleans as the only wise and
practical mode of achieving any results
''in the reform of the State Government
land the overthrow OF the party which
'has 50 long oppressed, pIundered and
''misgoverned this people" It adds:
1t was distinctly proclaimed that all
past divisions and designations should be
ignored and obliterated. Democratic,
Republican, Liberal Republican, Reform
and every other class and division of the
people are invited to rally around the
Independent flag and march in solid col
umn to the common object and end of
purifying our Government and establish
ing its administration on solid, wise and
honest basis.

The failure of the Civil Rights bill tc
pass at the last session of Congress in
consequence of the Discrimination of a
large number of Republicans to touch it,
raises doubt whether it will ever pass
unless it is purged of the mixed school
feature. Many of the abIest Republican
journals in the North have condemned
this provision. Among others, the Gin
cinnati Times, which says;
The attempt to enforce such require
ment throughout the South by Federal
authority would undoubtedly be injurious
to the cause of education, and we trust
Congress will avoid forcing so disturbing
an issue. But that the children of col
ored people should have equal common
school privileges with those Of white peo-
pie is a measure of justice which ought
not to be objected to by any good citizen.
And it is not.

As chapter of War History, we have
published another paper from the pen OF
General Hood This number contains
the order of President Davis relieving
Gen Johnston from the command of the
Army of Tennessee by which it will be
seen that his decision was caused by the
failure of Gen. Johnston ''to arrest the
" advance of the enemy to the vicinity of
g Atlanta, far in the interior of Georgia, .
and the absence ofan expression of conf
dence by the commanding general that
he could defeat or repel him" Pre-
vious publications of Gen. Hood show
that Gen. Lee concurred with Mr.. Davis
in his views of the necessity of repelling
the Union forces from Georgia, and that
for this purpose, he Gen. Lee had con-
sented to be shorn of a material part of
his own diminished force.

Bloody Fight Among Railroad
R.uEOrers.

C1Nc1NNAr1, June 22.-An Enquirer
Parkersburg special says bloody fight
occurred on the Short Line Railroad,
about fifteen miles from that place, sun
day afternoon, between gangs Of men
under contractors Ward and McLaugh-
lin. At a dance on the previous evening
one of contractor Wards men beat d
woman badly, and was severely punished
in return. Ward, learning what had
occurred, gathered his men, numbering
about one hundred, and returned yester
day afternoon to the scene Of the fracas.
An innocent negro was set on by the
party and finally knocked of the river
bluff.
He endeavored 10 escape by swimming,
but was fired at and killed instantly. A
serious encounter afterwards occurred
between Wards gang and their oppo-
nents. One of Wards men has since
died of his wounds, and nine or ten
others on both sides we're badly wuunded.

Francis a. Wolff, Esq, of Tippah
county, presents rather novel plan for
the solution Of the race problem, in our
issue of to-day. The obstacles to his
plan seem to be simply insurmountable,
for many reasons unnecessary to mention,
in view of the improbability of Its ever
being seriously considered. Even if he
could carry out his idea of setting apart
a specific portion of the common territory
for the African race, does he not know
that it would soon be invaded by the An
glo-Saxons in search of population to
till their lands and perform mental ser
vice Who has complained more vehe-
mently about negro rule" in Mississippi,
than the very men who have imported
the blacks by the carload from Georgia,
Alabama, Virginia and elsewhere, to
work their plantations?
