A Plain Case.

The decision thai the Star-Ropte con-
spirators could not be proceeded against
by information filed by che District
Attorney, without violating the COnsti-
tuition of the United States, has direct
bearing upon the proceedings which
we're instituted against citizens of Mis-
sissippi charged with the grave crime
of violating the federal election laws.
The pretext assigned for the attempted
proceeding by information against the
Star-Routers was that the statute of
limitation had barred proceeding by
indictment of grand jury. In other
words, that the grand jury had no power
to act upon the case. Otherwise, it
was not even pretended that informa-
ton would have been fled. In Mis-
sissippi, no such reason could be essign-
ed. Not only was opportunity afforded
the Grand Jury to And true bills. but
the utmost diligence was used By the
District Attorney to present evidence
against the accused, aud still the jury
couis not discover cause for indictment.
The odios.s form Of prosecution BY in
formation vas then resorted to. Under
the ruling At Washington, the proseeu-
fion was plainly uaec4s sntionaI, and
ought not to have been entertained BY /
the Court.

Wayne County ELECTION.

EDIToRs CLARION In your issue Of the
18th, you make mistake of 100 votes in
the Governors election. This Is think
the work of the typos. Gen. Lowry carried
this county by SIS majority The Sheriff.
Mr.. L. d.. MeRae. (Dem.,l and Alex. Powe,
(Dem.,) were elected as well as other county
officers for the Democracy. One or two
beat officers Of the independent ticket were
elected.
I happened 70 be Commissioners of Flee
tons foE Wayne county, ard refer you to
the Official vote sent to the Secretary of
State, to prove that the types are response
bic.
For many years, while at Meridian, /
knew and esteemed Gen. Lowry too we'll to
let this typographical error pass without
notice; for Wayne Is one Of the eldest
counties In the State It was the home Of
the immortal Governor, John j. McRae.
and of Judge Mayors. the law partner Of
Gen Lowry, and il many other respects
historic county. Please correct.
Yours truly,

A Poll Tax.

We do not now hear the proposition
advocated to require the payment of the
poll tax as condition of voting in Mis-.
sissippi nor do we hear propositions for
either an educational or property quail
fication. 1t seems to be the recognized
policy to educate the masses, so as to
supercede the necessity of resorting to
the extreme remedy mentioned As
for property qualification, it is so repug-
nant to free government that no one
will have the temerity to champion it.
Capacity for government is not found
in kid gloves, nor railway stocks, nor
broad possessions, but in virtue and
intelligence.
The poll tax requirement has not
proved to be an efficient ally of honest
elections in Pennsylvania, Virginia and
other States where it has been tried.
For example we are told that in Penn
slyvania every important political year
committees raise money to pay the poll
tax of delinquents that they may secure
the glorious privilege of suffrage. In
Philadelphia many thousand dollars are
raised every year by the party commit
tees for paying poll taxes. This is SIM
ply buying votes at whatever tax is
levied on the poll, and is as corrupting
as anything can be, to the suffrage
In Virginia, the same game is plactised.
1t is suspected that tens of thousands of
dollars were sent into that State by the |
party at the last election
70 pay poll taxes in order to secure votes
sor the Malone party. The surest pro-
lection to the liberties of the people,
md the purity of the ballot-box, is to
make suffrage easy. Better restrict it
than to place votes as the poll
AK requirement does, at the disposal of
he wealthy monopolists, who think the
government should be an agency for
heir own exclusive benefit.

To Our Senator's and Representatives.
We would respectfully suggest to the

We would respectfully suggest to the
Senators and Representatives from
Mississippi whose constituents have
been prosecuted for alleged violation OF
the federal election laws, the introduce
tion Of a bill as soon as Congress meets,
with title something like the follow
ing: IAN act to be entitled an act to
prohibit criminal prosecutions before the
Courts of the United States, by the
process of information, and to require
that persons charged with offending
against the laws of the United States
shall be prosecuted only by presentment
or bill of Indictment by grand jury"
Prosecution by information is a relic of
a tyrannical era, odious to the friends of
liberty and in derogation of the rights
of American citizens, and if existing
laws do not provide sufficient safeguards
against its use, it is high time that
measures were taken to that end.

A Correction.

The Washington Republican, of the
18th, attributes the following expression
to Tbs CLARION:
If there is bloodshed on the 9Th Of next
November let no colored man say he was
not warned in time. If you are satisfied
with the present government stay at home,
for If conflict should occur, you know
who will be the victims.-Jackson Mlss.l
Clarion.
We ask the Republican to correct its
misstatement. The CLARION did not
originate, nor publish, this warning,
or any words to that effect. The
CLARION repeatedly notified the colored
voters that their privilege of suffrage
would be maintained by the Democratic
party; and that they would neither be
molested nor made afraid in its exercise;
that the ballot should be free alike to
white and black, and the count fair. We
do not say that the foregoing language
admits of the construction placed upon
it under startling headlines by the
but we insist that it will
not put into our mouths expressions
that we have not used. We may add
while on the subject, that there was
''blcodshed" on the 9Th of November.
1t flowed freely from the veins of peace
able and law-abiding citizens of Lauder
dale county. Five of them, without
provocation, with generalization and
malice aforethought, were slain. They

deliberate precision upon their victims.

THE Democratic platform on the
Supervision of Corporations is 90 i'm
practicable abstraction as some persons
would have the public believe. Let
the servants of the people undertake to
evade the pledge it contains. and they
will bear something drop. The right
of the Legislature to supervise eorpor-
atoms has been affirmed by the Supreme
Court, and can not be questioned
by anybody. But it is not proposed
even by that intelligent and patriotic
class Of people known as Changers that
Railroads shall be required to accept
rates; much less To-
conhscate Railroad property. What
the people viii expect from the incom-
ing Legislature is such wise and just
laws as have protected the public from
and overeharges in
Georgia, Missouri, Alabama, Illinois,
ETC.. and at the same time given to
Railrosd Investments the boom they are
now enjoying IN thqss States.

The ErIanger Syndicate.

| Meridian Mercury.
The Erlaqgers are going on to build their
road 1.-THE New Orleans and Meridian) with
full knowledge of the whole situation as
to supervisory legislation over railroads.
We imagine that this particular Syndicate
may see cause to welcome it. The obvious
effect will be to largely increase their bust
ness here. With law, framed upon the
principle OF Barry bill, it is safe to say
that large amount of cotton raised in the
black lands north of US, will be shipped
here, be compressed here, and then take
their direct line east as the shortest, quick
est and cheapest When Law regulates
freight on cotton SO that it costs only 81
bale from West Point against So or 81 to
Mobile, large quantities will find market
here to the benefit Of the 5rIanger lines.
Nothing in the laws of commerce that
controls its routes and direction can be
more certain.
(No capitalists need have fear of
legislation hostile to railroad enterprises
in Mississippi. On the contrary, the
utmost care will be taken to deal with
them kindly and at the same time with
a due regard to other interests, all of
which should be dealt with impartially

The system of taxing Railroads in
Tennessee under the acts of 1875 and
amendments of 1877, have been de-
elared unconstitutional and void by the
Supreme Court of the State. These
acts provided that the railroads should
furnish schedule of all the property
they owned. A board which meets at
Nashville takes this schedule, and from
this makes out the aggregate value Of
all real, personal and mixed property.
The shares Of stock are deducted from
this amount, and the aggregate divided
By the entire length Of the road, which
gave the average value per mile. This
valuation, multiplied by the number Of
miles owned in the State, would give
the amount of State taxes, and from the
average per mile the clerks Of courts
should collect bis county tax, and at
the same rate the corporation should
be paid. This is the purport Of the
avs which have been pronounced I'M
