The Eo rors of Convict Cam ps,
Natchez Democrat. !

Natchez Democrat.
The suggestions made by Gov. Lowry
in his eminently practical message, in
regard to the law iu relation to prisoners
in county jails, should, we think, receive
h. prompt attention of the Legislature
Inere are several great hardships Incl
dent to the law as it now stands, that
should at once be obviated. A criminal
is nevertheless man, and the treatment
Of this class of people, particularly Of
those whosud'sr for petty offences, should
be so guarded that they could not be
abused. Tie pUrticelar points on which
the Govern 0r suggests amendments to the
law, will commend themselves, we think,
at once to members of the Legislature,
and the harlsphips which they work will
be obyiatel. The too speedy delivery Of
the conyicts to the contractor has in
some cases sent him to punishment with
out his even knowing its terms. Time
should certainly be allowed to ascertain
the amount of the costs of the prosecu-
ton, and as witnesses are allowed five
days from the expiration of the term to
file their claims. the Governors recon-
mendation to changeth the time of delivery
of the convictfrom "twenty-four hours"
to five days, isone that justice demands.
The abuses to which this system is liza
BILE, requires all the careful safeguards
which the Governor recommends, and
the Legislature, in the interest of justice
should give the whole law the most care
full attention.
The horrors that have been reported
in convict camps should be made impos-
sible if the system of hiring out convicts
is to be continued. The mortality re-
ported among the convicts of Mississippi
is terrible proof that the State is not
doing its full duty towards this unfor-
tunate class, and humanity demands that
laws should be so framed that the State
may in future be freed from the stain
which such a record is calculated to
bring upon it.

That Supplement"


THE CLARION supplement contain
ing the complete list of registered voters
of Jackson, has been referred to by gen
tlemen who appeared before the Judi.
ciary Committee, and also by the
Ledger, and special stress laid upon the
fact that in the same sheet appeared the
details of what they style the "Yazoo
lynching." They are hard-up for OBJ
iectians when they make such point as
this. The city charter requires pub
LEGATION of the lat Of registered voters,
alter their first meeting, which was
done; but it does not require the publ
cation of the additiong names registered
in the two days designated in Dccem-
Der. Tho law was literally complied
with in tho first publications but in
Difference to the suggestions OF several
citizens, and an intmation that If the
complete list were not published the
election would be contested, the Mayor
ordered the same to be done. Our reg
ular edition of January I'd had gone to
press, but early the next morning. we
circulated one thousand copies Of the
supplement. The list of names occupied
nearly four columns of space, and we
instructed the foreman to make up the
page from any matter available. The
"Yazeo Tragedy" was still in type, and
as 1t was matter of exciting interest,
it was transferred to the supplement,
If it had been done for any purpose OF
intimidation of any class of voters, as
charged, they were not intimated worth
u cent, for the vote was the largest ever
cast in any city election. According to
the style of argument used, 1t is fair to
presume that had the election resulted
differently, McGill would have claimed
that the colored "man and brother had
been intimidated by the publication OF
the Yazoo Tragedy in the same sheet
with the list of registered voters!

Education and Whisky.

It's strange how intimate aud friendly
they are! One is intellectual, the other
is physical and immoral. One is eleyat.
ing in character other often gets
down to the lowest depths Of degrade
ton. One carries the intellect and soul
into the very arcana Of nature and ma.
lures God-the other drags the soul
and body down to the place lately trans.
lated Hades when improperly used
When they are the very antipo1es OK
each other, how does 1t happen-thoir
natures aud tendencies 50 diverse that
they become so eongenial and disposed
to help one another?
The educated, the refined and the in
tellectual grant fayors to those who in
dulge in the Use of the dangerous ar.
ticle, and the latter, in turn, pay the
piper for this indulgence, in the shape
Of fines, for deeds donc--not by them
selves, but by Captain Whisky, anC
with the help Of the intelligence Of tho
land, arrangements are perfected b,
which this whisky money goes TO Tho
support Of schools, whcrt the young idci
il taught how to shoot.
Is this eongruous or incongruous
Our legislation on this subject need
overhauling perhaps general revis
ion--so that all fines and forfeiture
arising from the violation Of the whisk
laws may be paid directly into the State
county and city treasuries, to be use'
by them "a the legal authorities ma
direct. This change should not rcduc
the proper expenditures Of money 70
educational purposes.
II maybe that n well regulated syi
tenn might bring into the treasury
much larger amount Of money by sin
plifying the system and regulating til
collections by the proper officers IN
paying over promptly all fines and 70

Our morning contemporary has an en-
terprising correspondent at Jackson, who
not only finds time to write up the news,
but assist the Speaker of the House in
the formation of his committees. We
have not seen his handiwork in any of
President pro tenn Reynolds committees
as yet, but no doubt the able correspon-
dent will also be willing to give Mr.. Rey-
nolds little advice and assistance in per-
forming the arduous duties of his official
position. And if the Governor should
need few pointers, we expect the
aforesaid correspondent will be equal to
the emergency, and will give his valuable
assistance in guiding the ship of State. .
What a pity the Herald had not sent

that Speaker Carlisle had in selecting

be such dissatisfaction over some of tie
important ones.

THE Vicksburg Herald of yesterday
contains one of its characteristic sneers
at Tue CLARION. This is taken ms n
matter of course. 1t assails THE CLAIR
ION for its neutrality in the recent city
election. The Citizens meeting pre-
posed to run Mr., Clingan on Reform
or Citizens ticket, The editors of this
journal thought that for any one of the
Democratic papers TO advocate Mr..
Clingan would drive away from him
every Republican voter and would de-
feat the very programme laid down for
the campaign, The Ledger not only
advocated his cause, but announced
that Democrats ought to vote for him
because he was n Democrat. This was
a good weapon to put into the hands Of
the McGill men, and, no doubt, they
used II. We verify believe that the
proclamation of Clingan's Democracy
by that newspaper, under the circum-
stances, contributed to his defeat. But
IL Is hurled at us that our silence did the
work. We are grati6ed at the compli-
ment, but deny the impeachment. The
Herald calls the senior editor "Mr Sec
Observation-Disclosures" We
regret that we are unable to return in
kind what we deem very high tribute
to the powers of our chief
The Herald says thauit is even hint
ed that it (THE CLARION rather pre-
ferred" the election of McGill. In view
Of the statement already made, that we
preferred the election of Mr.. Clingan,
that we voted for him, and that we
would have rejoiced in his election, we
pronounce such "hints," from whatever
source they emanate, rs contemplate,
false and slanderous.
