PROPOsED AMENDMENTS.

Two.amendEents to the Constitution
sE Nevada were proposed by the last
Legislature of the. State, and are to be
Submitted to the qualified electors at
Ahe ensuing. election for ratification or
rejection. One is that the rights of
suffrage and Office holding shall not be
Withheld from any male citizen of the
United States. by reason of color or
previous, condition of servitude; the
other, that no public funds of any kind
or character. State. county or Municipal
shall be used for sectarian purposes.
That these amendments should be
ratified by tie people at the polls,
there is no room for doubt or argu.
ment. 1t is burlesque on citizenship
20 give person the privilege of voting
and debar him from holding Office.
Colored citizens are permitted to vote
in Nevada, bat we believe have never
Deem gwen opportunity to hold othce.
Under the Constitution of the State,
they are not allowed to vote or hold
Office. and the object of the amendment
10 to reconcile the Constitution with
theslaws of Congress.
The second proposed amendment is
for good purpose. to prevent the use
sf the public funds for sectarian pur-
poses, and it will undoubtedly be ap
proved by unanimous vote of the
people in November.

THE YEAR OF JUBILEE

The political millennium has come.
The "bloody shirt" which hirel;ng
campaigners uDfurled on every stump
in the Presidential campaign to, excite
the prejudices and passions of the peo-
pie, is torn into shreds and scattered to
the winds of heaven. The terrible Ku
Klux and Rife Clubs of South Carolina.
which furnished any desired mum Der of
outrages for electioneering purposes,
have suddenly vanished into thin air.
The blood.thirsty and Aw.violating
Democracy Of South Carolina. who. we
were told. preyed upon the lamb like
aud law-abiding carpet baggers, have
disappeared as if by magic, and peace
and prosperity prevail through the
State. The administration of Wade
Hampton. the terrible, whom the peo-
pie elected Governor with the deter
mination of upholding him at whatever
cost against the usurpation of the car
pet baggers. has given such general sat-
isfaction- to the people of the State that
the Republican Convention, which met
at Columbia last Thursday. endorsed
it. This unexpected action shows the
beginning of new and brighter era in
politics. An ex.rebel General, who it
was asserted two years ago. was the
representative of all the disloyalty and.
devilment which carpet baggers alleged
existed to Q great extent in Sonth
YCarolina, has proved to be the only
honest, impartial and really good Gov
srnor the State has bad since the war,
and to-day he is endorsed by whites
and blacks, Democrats and Republi-
cans. who live in peace together with
snt bayonet interference on the one
side or Ku Klux intimidation on the
other.
