There are>no e,howeyer democrat
ic their form of government,whose laws do
not qualify suffrage in some way, either
as to age, sex, education or property. In
our State the suffrage is confined to the
male sex and no one is permitted to vote
unless he has been a resident for given
period, and is twenty-one years of age.
In Massachusetts, and other States an
educational qualification is required,
and in some others a property quail
fication is prescribed. We do not
propose to apply either of these
tests in Mississippi; but we propose that
the voter shall be required to present
evidence of his having paid his poll tax
of the previous year, which would guar
antee that he possesses the essential
element of residence. The amount of
the poll tax might be so small as not to
be an obstacle in the way of any one who
is worthy of the privilege of voting and
taking part in making the laws of the
State A poll tax receipt for the same
year in which the offer to vote is made
will not suffice; first, because it would
not afford evidence of residence; and sec
ond, because the voter might then
be the mere tool of designing dema-
gogues and of candidates possessing the
money to purchase his vote. Itshould
be the aim of every patriot to protect the
purity of the ballot-box and make it the
agent of a perfectly untrammeled ex
preston of public sentiment.
No more important subject than this Of
regulating suffrage can engage the atten
ton of the Legislature, and the people
will be disappointed if a constitutional
amendment having the above object in
view is not submitted to them fol
adoption,

DRY GROVE, Kinds Co., Jan. ~, 1873
To the Editors Of the Clarion:
| find in the CLARION a communication
headed as above, signed s. NJ 1t is clear
the writer wants something for nothing.
The privilege claimed, to raise stock on
other peoples land free of rent, is precisely
like living in other mems houses free Of
rent, or cultivating their lands free of rent
The idea that the owners of lands
are compelled by anybody to impoveriSh
themselves in keeping their lands in
closed to prevent tresp pass by other peoples
stock, | deny. Those claiming this right
expect or hope to succeed by making the
ignorant colOred race believe the land
owners are their enemies, hoping thereby
to control their votes for their own personal
ends, regardless of right. The writer at
Horn Lake says some lana owners are too
poor to feed their stock all the time. n ,
man, and especially farmer, has any right
TO keep airy animal if he is too poor TO feed
it, but should be held amenable to the law
for cruelty to animals. | deny the as
sertion that landowners care nothing
for small farmers or tenants. 1t nay be so
at Horn Lake. 1t is not true as to Kinds
county. Our landowners in Kinds since
the war have uniformly been generous to
the colored people; indeed their interests
are the same. They have furnished them
with homes. fuel and water, and | can say
with truth that it has been free of any cost
Th sc same men and families get all these
home comforts three months in every year,
and they do no solitary thing for the bene-
fit of owners without pensation. There
are in this county some three thousand or
more men labOrerS who have failed to paw
poll-taX for the year 1877 This tax, it is
well Known, has been set apart exclusively
for the support of public schools. They get
the greatest benefit aud still they neglect to
pay this tax. Nota single land owner has
failed 10 pay his. 1.-The has. his home has
been cOntiscated or forfeited to the State.
The landowners pay their taxes and sub
nit; and in this assures to them their ONLY
hope. They come TO the law-making
power, not asking favors but rights That
they be no longer burthened trying to do a
useless and foolish thing that all the world
may without impunity be trespassers on
their rights. / do not think it would be
wise for the Legislature to pass a general
stock law for the State. Many of the river
counties need no such laws, nor does the
pine forest region. But there can be no
doubt about Kinds, and do hope the SEN
ators and Representatives from this county
will give the subject that attention it de-
serves. Let it not be deferred two years
1t is a necessity which cannot be delayed.

It would be matter of impossibility to
report from memory the eloquent words
that flowed in response to ''The Press"
or the words OF
congratulation. sympathy and hope that
We're uttered by Judge Chalmers. of

marks OF Chief-J Justice Simrall, in which
he revie we'd briefly the course OF his Court
in those trying times when its weak but I'M
resisted arm was the sole barrier between
orr liberties and the destruction with which
they were menaced; or the pliment paid
by Colonel Tison, of Lee, to the intelligence
OF a people that selected and sent here this
exceptionally efficient Legislature; or the
tongue Of fire with which "our Shands," of
Tate, spoke of the days when, in the midst
of gloom and despondency, the stern, I'M
compromising course of the CLARION
''shook i'm perial Caesars throne" The
toasts, "To the ladies" 80 the Fire Depart

priately responded to, and even the Repub-
lican editor of the Times, Captain Lake,

that if be could, by uttering one word, bring
back Ames and that gang, ere he would ut

The Kemper Trials.

The trial of the Kemper prisoners on
the frivolous charge of violating the en-
forcement law in having prevented the
late w. w. Chisolm from advocating his
claims for Congress, commenced in the
United States District Court Friday
evening. As before explained, the
Messrs. Gully were in the custody of
Sheriff WEIGH under an Indictment in
the State Court for the subsequent MUIR
der of the said Chlsolnl. The United
States Marshal was therefore saved the
trouble of bringing them, and conflict
between Federal and State authorities
were also avoided. The indicted parties
80 far from seeking to avoid trial, not
withstanding its hardship and expense,
are anxious that it should take place,
and it is fortunate that they are to be
triedfbefore most excellent jury COM
posed chiefly of intelligent citizens of the
county of Adams.

or, aud | respectfully request OF Your non
ora bic body That you make permaaent pro-
vision for such assistance rs the public

The laborious and intricite duties re-
uuired By the act OF last session in the re-
-orga uiZation o. the land department. since
1913, the Privilege tax aud license and retail
laws, while they have increased the reve-
nues without additional taxation over one
hundred per cent, have more than doubled
the work in this respect liz the Auditor 5
office. Notwithstanding this, in 1875, the
number and salaries were fiXrd as follows:
Deputy Auditor, $3.50 per anunm and SIX
clerks at a salary OF $1,000 each. See Acts
1875. pages %, 26 and u.
Upon inquiry or examination, we are sat
isfi ID that There will be no disposition on
the part of the Legislature to cripple the
public service, either by reducing the num-
Der of clerks below what may be necessary
to perform the work, or by fixing the salA-
res at such an amount that skilled and com
petent men cannot live and hold office I'M
der the Gov, rument.
What has been said in respect to the Au-
ditor's office, holds equally good with the
Treasurer's. TIE recelpJ ami payments re-
quire entry cancellation, date Of paymenC,
etc, etc. Only the Treasurer keeps gem
era, while the Auditor keeps individual ac-
counts The office requires, 10 keep the
work up, two reliable, efficient men, and
thcre is no economy in restricting the office
t. one clerk when the duties cannot be
performed
/ If this state had County Auditors, to
whom were intrusted all the details of as
sessment and settlement Of revenues, as
they have in Kentucky, Indiana and other
States, then the work would be lghtened
and these offices conducted at less expense
In these States the COmptroliers have 40
direct transactions with county officials but
the County Auditor settles the various ac-
counts aud pays the State revenue over to
the Comptroller. This system, however
would be much more expensive and would
cost, perhaps, an averaga of one thousand
dollars to the county. What costs those
States nearly one hundred thousand dollars
is saved in this by the addition of few
clerks, who under our system perform all
this work. y. 4. W.

Conviction of the Returning
EkO;aEsierS

No trial has ever taken place in the
country which has created more interest,
and is more wide-reaching in its bearings
than that of the Returning Boarders,
who are being prosecuted for forgery and
perjury in New Orleans. Their convic-
ton secures the punishment of criminals
guilty of an infamous crime but it de-
rives Importance from the fact that it
will show whether or not Rutherford B.
Hayes was elected President of the
United States. He was counted 10 by a
vote of 1876 to 184-the six votes ot2Lou-
isiana having been counted for him.
The proof in the trial of Anderson was
positive that he and others of the
Returning Board had altered and
forged returns to effect this result, and
thereby procured declaration by the
10y 7 Commission that Hayes, and not Til
den, was elected. Anderson has been con-
victed, and his confederates will of ne
cessity share his fate. The cloud upon
the title of the Rutherford B. Hayes is
now blacker than impenetrabe darkness.
