The True Mission of Democracy

Edaor Herald:
"Suges'" criticism of my recent
article in your paper is just, aud stand
corrected and reproved But | would
simply suggest to the brilliant and
witty correspondent, "Suggs." who is
ever full of mental resource, and
whose stock of information il large,
that we should rather pride ourselves
on full State Treasury than congrat-
ulate ourselves because of our States
excellent credit.
MIR. Jefferson's panacea for every
public i'll was ECONOMY" IL the rev.
enues were insufficient he limited ap-
propriations, curtailed the number Of
public officers, and thereby enabled his
administration to conduct the public
business without any increase Of taxa.
tion of the people. That il, he made
the revenues he had suffice for all
purposes through and by rigid system
of economy. And he was right. For
any taxation over and above necessary
and economical public expenditures
becomes public extortion.
No, most excellent aud talente Il
brother "Suggs," by birth, by heritage,
by education and by natural intuition
| am Democrat, with mind imbued
with all the best principle, and the
i ftrfl ~
and with IA soul full of hatred OF every
species Of tyranny and injustice, of all
bigotry and intolerance; but full OF
sympathy and love for the human race.
Democracy is my haven of refuge and
my hope of life.
The world had witnessed mapy
forms Of governmental the Theocratic,
the Monarchic, the AIistOcratic and
the Republican hut not until the days
OF J' iierson was true, pure and gen
uine Democracy instituted instituted
To ameliorate the condition of all
mankind, To accord liberty to person
and safety 20 property. to grant freedom
Of speech, press and conscience, To
afford an asylum for the oppressed, "a
home for the INDECENT, and to become
the wonder Of the world and the fear
Of tyrants.
Such are the United States of Amer
ica-such is Democracy, whose grand
mission il to give freedom to all, to
mete out equal and exact Justice, to
equslize all in citizenship and in the
matter and manner of taxation, to
train and educate, to abate wrong, to
abolish error and to destroy ignorance
and vice.
The ostensible as well as real mission
of the present Democratic admInistra-
tiOn at Washington City is, to root out
public parasites and to stop public
plunder, to place honest and efficient
men in office. to abolish or cut down
unjust and burdensome tariffs and de-
crease taxation, to destroy monopoly,
to retain the Public Domain for the
people, To stop the aggrandizement of
capital and to end the arrogance of
lordly manufacturers and the insolence
of millionaire bankers-and to neUer,
NEVER, NEVER let the hated Repub-
lican party regain political power.

ASSESSORS in the State will be
glad 10 hear of decision rendered by
the Court of Appeals last week in the
case of Harrison rersus the Common.
wealth. The higher court reversed
the judgment of the lower court, the
Louisville Law Il Equity Court, and
pronounced the opinion that an Asses
sOr should be entitled the compensa-
ton fixed by law, fifteen cents, for
each person listed whether he had
property or not. The statute pro-
vides, that 1.-THE amount allowed shall
not exceed fifteen cents for each per-
sons list of taxable property, and
Judge Simrall, of the lower court,
went in his construction strictly ac-
corling to the letter. But the Court
of Appeals to a wider and wiser view
of the case, and interpreted the law
in conformity with its legislative in
tent and not with the literalness of
it, and in consideration of the COM
mon opinion and treatment of it.
The State has always heretofore pal d
the Assessor for lists that did not en-
brace property, thereby plainly
showing the meaning of the law.
The Court determines that il is not
the items comprised in the list, but
the taking of it which gives the
right to compensation, and that is
based upon the lis:s and not the items
in them.

Mr.. W. b. FLEMING. of Louis
vile, lately a candidate for Judge
Wickliffe's place, was quite surprised
Friday by the Presidents rendering
him the position of Associate Justice
of the Supreme Court of New Mexi-
co. Mr.. Fleming is lawyer of con-
siderable experience and a gentle
man of culture. He was the Dem
ocatic Elector for the State at large
during the last Presidential cam
paign, and We remember that he
made convincing and entertaining
speech when he came here. He does
not know whether he will accept the
proffered Office.
