JOHNSON AT THE
FRONT AGAIN.

| The remarkable recuperative powers
of Elk President Andrew johnson, have
been shown in his election to the u. 5.
Senate from Tennessee by Democratic
votes over a host of talented and
younger men with splendid (Con-
federate) war records. Having allied
himself to the Union cause in a
tsate overwhelmingly Southern, hejoined
the Republican party and accepted
office at its hands during the war
and at its close, signalized' his intense
hostility by his persecution of Mr.. Davis,
and his historic declaration that treason
must be made odious and traitors pun
ished"- has nevertheless been taken
into the confidence of the same Southern
people and restored by them to the same
place in which he was when the memoir
able separation on the question of the
war, took place. Nothing could better
illustrate their federation, and their for
getfulness of past quarrels.
But times have changed and new
issues have come up. 1t is not now a
question of restoring the Union, but of
bridging the bloody chasm, arresting
the revengeful persecution of the Sonth,
and maintaining the Constitution with its
guarantees of equal rights to every State
and section. On this issue, Andrew
johnson, having joined the rejuvenated
Democracy, is on the side of the latter
and his stalwart arm will strike many
Valiant blow for the right. His intel
ectual superior will not be found in the
senate. In all the land, there is not
nan who is so cordially detested by
Grant and his satellites.
The Daily clarion. [volume] (Jackson, Miss.) 1866-1888, 1875-01-28

Sundry bills have been introduced to
reduce the expenditures of the State Gov
eminent, and several test votes have boon
taken. These are all we'll enough; but
"nat is most wanted is direct vote upon
a bill to reduce the State tax from fen 70
Tour mills on the dollar, and to restrain
Inc taxing power of the county admins
tratlons. When bill of this sort l.
passed, the Legislature can estimate the
extent to which it can afford to make an
preparations and keep them within the
limits of the States income.
Let us have sharply defined issue and
a direct vote upon a sweeping reduction
measure so that the people may know
VINO Is for, and who against them, and
what they are to depend upon.

has been a faithful and efficient officer
and no allegations have been made i'm

WE have looked with a good deal OF
concern, but in vain, to the passage of a
bill regulating the cost of assessing. The
Auditor has reported to the Legislature
that it will exceed $4,000 the present
year, if the rates are not reduced. Does
the Legislature intend to compel the
people to bear this burden? In former
times the average cost of this service did
not exceed $15, 900.
