The Logan Grant Bill.

Logan put on his war paint and fourished
the whetted tomahawk in furious style.
He recited such history as is accessible
in the Congressional Library to show what
England had done for her great captains
how she had enriched Wellington and Nell
son, which she didn't, as Nelson died in
action and couldn't very we'll have been
provided" for, as the Illinois brave ex-
presses it. General Vest clipped this fine
phrenzy by the very apt reminder that if
the Republican party admires Grant so
much it had chance to show its admira-
ton at Chicago by renominating him for
the Presidency. The rebels surely didn't
defeat him there. Logan was extremely
grieved to see this great national eleemosy-
nary object made a simply partisan point.

Political Meeting at Memphis.

A number of Mississippians, from all
parts of the State, Representatives of all
shades Of opposition to the Bourbon De-
mocracy, were in consultation at the Pea
body hotel yesterday. The object of this
meeting is to form basis of an organ;za-
ton of a peoples party for the overthrow of
the present administration in Mississippi, at
the gubernatorial election in November
Among the names canvassed as candidates
for Governor were those of Gen. James l..
Alcorn, Gen. a. NJ. West, of Holly Springs,
Roderick Seal, of Pass Christian, Gen.
George c. Mckee, of Jackson, and Gen
Reuben Davis, of Aberdeen. 1t is likely,
however, that Gen. Alcorn will be the
choice ofall opponents of the old Democra-
ey, if he will accept the candidacy. He
will be Il candidate hard to beat.--Ava-
Ianche.
We will not assume to speak for any
of the rest, but we will venture to say
that the name of Hon r. Seal is men
toned in the above connection without
his authority.

The Appointment of Stanley Mat
thewS, of Ohio.

The Supreme Court of the United
States with the important powers vested
in it under the Constitution, is the high
est judicial tribunal in the world. Its
occupants are appointed for life. They
should come up to the highest standard
of learning in their profession, and in
all the walks and relations of life, they
should be above suspicion. 1t is known
that Stanley Matthews, Mr.. Hayes APP
pointee, doesn't measure up to this
standard. Even the Chicago Tribune,
(which stands at the head of the West
ern Republican press, denounces the
mountaineering:
He has not the judicial temperament; he
is cratic and partisan. His reputation is
that of vested-right corporation attorney,
and his sympathies are so entirely on that
side and against the people that he did not
hesitate to defend the Pacific Railroad vul-
lures in the Senate against the application
of the legally unassailable principles of
Judge Humans bill to compel them to
pay at least small part of the defaulted in
terest. Mr.. Matthews personal and politi-
cal relations 20 PRESIDENT Hayes nave Deen
of such peculiar nature that his appoint-
ment would reflect discredit on it if it did
not tarnish the honor of the Supreme Bench
1t would be suspected and said that Mat
thews was made Supreme Judge on ac-
count of very questionable service in the
"fair count" Louisiana business-services
which in the case of other men have already
been so conspicuously rewarded as to bring
reproach upon an administration pure and
honorable.
The New York Times, the leading Re
publican paper in the East, enters its
its protest--saying
He appeared in the Senate as the leading
of the measures intended to cons
pei the Pacific railroads to provide for meet
ing their obligations to the government. He
was the champion of the corporations against
the Thurman bill, and as a lawyer he has
been conspicuous in his defense Incorporate
interests. There has been tendency of late
to criticise the action of the Supreme Court
which is disquieting in its effect. That tri-
bunal ought to be beyond the reach of ca
luminous attack.
If enough Democrats do not vote with
the dissenting Republicans, to secure
the rejection of this bad nomination, we
shall confess our surprise and disap-
Dointment.

Okolona, Miss, Feb. 2, 1881.

Hon. A. II. LONGING and Hon, G.. ri.
Wilcox, of the Monticello bar, have been
in the city on professional business
Clarion.
These two young Democrats are members
of the present Mississippi Senate, and dis

Our friend pays a merited compli-
ment to these talented young members

genealogy of Mr.. Wilcox. He is not a
nephew nor even relative of ex-Con-

The Apportionment Question.

Woodville Republican,
The CLARION suggests that where the
new aPportionment is made, the number of
Representatives be reduced. The fact is
cited, that Tennessee with a population of
100000 has only IS Representatives.
whereas this State has 116 Representatives
and 80 Senator's. THE CLARION thinks
that 100 Representatives for the State would
be enough This would give one to each
county and leave twenty-eight to be divided
among the larger counties. We heartily
concur in this suggestion. No good is ac.
comPlished by having an overgrown mar
llamentary body Of any kind On the con.
trary numbers create confusion and retard
business. The expenses of the Legislature
would be materially reduced by such an
apPortIonment; though this argument
should have 10 force unless the measnre vvo.
otherwise meritorious. va

lion of new inhabitants from other coun-
tries. Of this vast number We venture
the assertion not fifty come to Mississip-
pi. 1t is estimated that each immigrant
i worth 10 the State in which he settles
$500, and that each has with him an
average of 800 in money. See what
has been gained by the States that in
vited them within their borders. But
there was some immigration to Missls-
sippi, it was from Georgia and Ala
bama and was colored. 1t was induced
to come by agents employed by the val
lev planters. This class of immigrants
will continue to come, as the planters
will send for them, as long as there
is an acre of land in the val
lev uncleared and uncultivated, or a
negro left in those States. Do the
white people in the hill counties intend
to do nothing to offset this black tide !
Do they intend to hold their hands and
quietly wait until the State is TURNED
over to the colored element?
If the State would go properly and en-
into the immigration business,
spend $1,000 year for ten years, she
would have at the end of that time at
least 100000 thrifty white immigrants
settled all over the hill counties, and
would not fell the expense. After that,
with an occasional greasing, the bust
ness would run itself. These people
would write to their old friends and old
neighbors and induce them to come
here also. We trust the next Legisla-
ture will dance to the music of the
times Advertise what you have, and
5or what you want, or shut up shop"

/ The VicksbuFg Herald seeing lie nn|
questionable merit Of the proposition Ii
reduce the number Of Representatives
and Senators, endorses it, but thinks
the following clause in the Constitution,
(Sec. "a, Art. 4, is bar to the plan OF
giving to each county at least one Re
preventative:
"The number Of Representatives shall, at
the several periods of making such enumer-
alton, be apportioned among The several coan-
| ties, or districts, according to the number of
| qualified electors in each, and shall not be
less than one hundred and twenty"
We might reply to the Herald's OBJ
jections to giving to each county a Re
preventative, with its favorite argument
in the Kellogg case, res adjudicata. 1t
is settled question that the clause
quoted does not operate to deprive each
county of Representative. When the
Democrats came into power, they found
several counties without representation.
These counties were almost solidly
white, and in the estimation of the
Radical authorities, they had no rights
entitled to respect. In the discussion
of the question, objection was not even
made by the opposers of the measure
that the Constitution prohibited them
separate representation. Some held that
the law fixing representation could not
be altered until the expiration of ten
years from the time the enumeration
was made, but majority held otherwise,
and the appOrtionment was changed to
the extent Of giving a Representative
The language of the Constitution is
plain as to the poaoer of the Legislature
''The number Of Representative shall
be apportioned among the seUeral cottn-
ties, or districts" The Herald thinks |
that the word ''districts" is conclusive |
against the plan of separate county re-
presentation. We grant that the clause
does not absolutely require seperate
1t is not mandatory as
in the old Constitution. But it is per-
missive, hence the words cor districts. "
It is left Discretionary with the Legisla-
ture whether the power shall be exer-
cised or not. The Legislature of 1876,
at its second session exercised this pow
err, and gave Representative to each of
the prescribed counties. There was no
ADLER nor more Jealous advocate of the
measure than Hon. Thomas G. Catch
ings, the present Attorney-General,
who was at the time a Senator from the
of Warren.
