Election Laws Opinion Of the At
torneY General.


JACKSON CLARloS. November !, 1882
JACKSON, Nov, 18th 1882.
RoBERT LOWRY, Governor, Etc.
SRI have carefully examined as re
requested by you the statutes of Mississippi
DEFINING the duties and powers of tbs
officers charged with the conduct of tbs
election to be held on the 7th instant
in connection with the statutes Of the
United State authorizing the appointment
Of Supervisors Of Election.
Chapter 5 of the Code of 1880, contains
the law of the State upon the subject, and
that law is the sole rule Of action 10 be
observed by the State elecEion officers.
The United States statutes do not as
sumo to repeal or modify in any particu-
lar, the law Of the State, or to control or
direct the conduct of those entrusted with
the power Of holding the election. The
only purpose of the Federal statutes, is TO
secure the enforcement of the law of the
State. They contain every provision look
ing 10 this end and prescribe penalties to be
inflicted upon those who violate the election
law Of the State.
Iftherefore, the laws of the State, pre-
seribing the mode in which the election
shall be conducted, ARE observed,the sole OBJ
ject Of the Federal statute has been attain
ed, and the officers of the State will be
acquitted Of all further responsibility.
The Federal authority is to be exercised
in support, and not in disregard Of the
State authority from which ii follows, that
it is auxiliary to that of the State, and not
10 be invoked so long as those representing
he State faithfully execute its laws.
This view of the question is made per-
ectly clear from the language OF section
1929 Of the IS. Revised Statutes, which
lefnes the powers and duties of Supervi-
ors OF Election. Il declares that they |
shall have no authority to make arrests or
0 perform other duties than to be in the
presence OF the officers holding
ne election, and to witness all their pro-
eediDgs. including the counting OF the /
otes and the making of a return thereof"
from this it is seen that they are mere
illnesses of the proceedings of the State
Ulcers. They have no power to direct or
ontrol the officers OF the State or the man.

and should they assume such
overs, they would be acting wholly with

Under this heading the Galveston
Spectator, edited by Mr.. Richard Nell
son, a delegate to the Republican con-
vention now in session in this city,
discusses the claims of the colored peo-
pie to fair divide of the honors of
their party.
Politics, the world over, Is a game of chance
with which conscience has but little TO do
and yet It has Its rules which may not, with
impuuity, be ignored. II is game, too, at
which the Republican party has been re-
markably SUI ,cessful.
Even I'm the South, where for certain rea-
sons the odds are largely against IL. all that
party asks, In order TO win, Is ia full vote n
free ballot, and n fair count in other words
1t demands "A square deal. II processes to
believe that even in games of chance "hon-
esty is the best pellcy;' but at times its prac.
tlce does not square with It's profession.
To illustrate; In round numbers the Re-
publican vote Of Texas may be estimated n t
G00lO, 5000 OF which are colorcd and 10000
white votes.
The number OF delegates TO which Texas Is
entitled in the nominating convention at
Chicago next June Ii twenty-siN. According
to pro rata proportion, the colored voters of
Texas are entitled to five.sixth representa-.
ton in the Texas delegation. or twenty-five
members Hitherto the colored voters have
been virtually ignored. Why? For no other
reason than becaute the unwrltten law
which Judge fancy said dominated Amerl-
can society during the reign OF slavery: me
groes have no rights that white men are
bound TO respect still prevails in the Re
publican party.
But the Spectator believes, whatever 9TH
ers may think, that the war waged by the
Republican party for the maintenance of the
Union settled something, notably that the
constitution OF the United States is the SUI
premc law ofthe land, and that tho thir.
teenth, fourteenth and fifteenth amend
ments thereto are integrant parts thereof.
Therefore the Galveston Spectator repre-
senting that large majority OF the Republl-
can party OF Texas whose rights have been
systematically ignored, and whose privileges
have been deliberately usurped by an insg-
niiicant minority, repudlates the vicious
race Determinations against colored citizens
which are tolerated by the party and solemn.
~ protests against their recognition as prec
edents for further invidious distinctions
Furthermore. II demands that at fort Worth
party receive the full recognition to which II
Is entitled.
Fellow Republicans, toto fart We ask moth
Ing but what II right and will submit e
nothing that Is wrong.

1rhn Road To l4rnnhnrq.

A call is made In The GAZETTE
to-day by Col. j, z. Smith, chairman
OF the Fort Worth and Southwestern
Railroad company. for a meeting OF
the directors at the Investment com.
psny's office in this city for organiza-
ton. The Granbury directors are on
hand, and the meeting will have a
full attendance and transact the bust
ness 1t is called upon to perform.
The charter will be applied for at
once, and other necessary prelimina-
rles will follow in proper order. The
work will not he allowed to lag. A
work of such magnitude nece .sarily
moves slowly, but no delay except such
as is attendant upon the work of or
ganizlng and perfecting all such cor
porations will stand in the way of
putting a railroad from Fort Worth
to Granbury. 1t will not be many
weeks before men and teams will be
doing their work, and another twelve
month will behold Granbury a rail
road town.

Another Trojan Horse Theory.

The acute Statesman discerned the
Trojan horse of state disintegration in
The GAzErrE's advocacy of the ma
jority rule, and the Statesman raised
hue and cry. The echoes of its notes
OF alarm had scarcely died away, be-
fore, from another quarter, comes
voice of surprise, protest and warning,
that of the Galveston News, which has
discovered in THE GAZETTE sophis-
teal champion of monopolies and an
ally of "alien" interests. That the
reading public may be fully and fairly
informed rs TO the grounds upon which
the News builds It's theory an article
from Sundays issue of that paper is
reprinted in this edition of THE Ga
zErrE, and careful reading thereof Is
invited. These things surprise The
GAZETTE, but do not overcome it, and
1t is willing to stand upon the plain
English Of its article (Which the News
quoted with thorough fairnessl for ref.
utation Of the charge OF sophism. The
whole force OF the News argument, 1t
will be noted, is directed against the
investment of foreign capital in
land. THE GAZETTE, in considering
such Investment, did not es-
tabllsh this distinction; 1t Is a gratui-
tous and studied discrimination of the
News. THE GAZETTE viewed, or en-.
deavored to view, the subject In its
broadcast and most comprehensive
sense. The News nnrrows, and it IL
to be regretted, dlstorts 1t. The GA.
zErrE's plea was directed against n
proscriptive and fallacious policy with
reference TO foreigners desiring to
make Investments In the United
States, whether In lands, railroads.
mines. manufactures, agriculture,
stock-raising or commerce. II pro-
