The weekly clarion. [volume] (Jackson, Miss.) 1863-1882, 1876-01-05

The Public Printing affords equal OPP
portunity with other branches of the
public service for the operation of the
policy of retrenchment to which the
Democratic party is pledged, and which
it intends faithfully to carry out. The
curtailment of expenditure can be made,
not only in the compensation allowed the
Printer, but in the quantity of matter
ordered to be printed.
We presume the Legislature will APP
point a joint committee, or each House
its separate committee, to institute rigid
inquiry into the business, and By the ex-
animation of experts, and of existing end
previous laws, to report such a schedule
of rates as will secure a reduction of the
cost. Fortunately there are in the Leg
lslature gentlemen who have practical
knowledge of the printing business, and no
doubt they will cheerfully undertake the
service OF examination and of preparing
such notifications of the laws as will Of.
fectuaily remedy the abuses complained of.
The plan of creating the Office o.
Printer and fixing prices, was accepted
as fair and just by both parties before
the war, and the decade from 1850 to
1860 has been held up as a model of ex
.celIence and economy. The CLARION
has stood in the forefront among the ad
vocates of reform. 1t has never wa
vered in its championship of this cause
1t is pledged to a curtailment of
expenditures throughout all the RAM
i6cations of the public service
printing among the rest-and it will earn
estly cooperate in such practical steps as
viii accomplish the end. 1t is the pro-
vince of the Democratic Legislature to
prescribe an economical rate of public
printing, and to elect a competent and
responsible party to perform the work.
The lists are open to all corners in the
Democratic ranks, and the choice of the
majority will command our ready acqui-
essence.

The Experiment of A African Self
GsuSeE.n6nem in Liberia

The Congos of Liberia, the model
African Republic which was born of the
philanthropy Cor whatever else you may
call it, that inspired the colonization pro-
ject half century ago, have drawn the
'color line" on the mulattoes or mike
breeds in that country. The following
is from the Chicago Times:
Liberia is likely to have a revolution,
growing out of 'Fcolor line" agitation.
In that happy black republic, no white
men are allowed any political privileges.
This prohibition is not particularly oner-
Gus, for no white men would go there
but when it is proposed to apply it tC
Liberian citizens who possess in their
veins even d faint of Caucasian blood, be
it ever so slight, it becomes oppressive
to many of the Colonization society's en-
igrants. 1t seems that the present chief
magistrate of the republic, President
Roberts, is not of pure African blood,
and there is movement to Gust him from
office on this account. A negro dema-
gogue from the West Indies is heading
the agitation against President Roberts,
and is seeking TO establish political color
test, excluding all mulattoes from office.
The negroes argue that in the United
States man who bad the smallest drop
of African blood in his veins was regarded
as "nigger," as much as the blacklist
and most recent importation from Guinea,
and they propose to establish the cores
bonding rule in their own country, as
regards those who have the least suspi-
cion of white blood.
