 Everyone knows where The Mirror stands on the question of the new Con stitution. and some or our frlends or tne opposition may condemn our attitude but our conscience does not We honest ly believe that the new instrument IS su- perior to the old one, and should the former be defeated (which is hardly prob able), our opinion will remain unshakeh and the same.-Attalla Mirror.
 If the franchise clause of the new Con- stitution means anything. It means Just what it said by The Advertiser.

The Advocate hopes every white man in Choctaw County. yea in the state Will remember this.-ChoctaW Advocate
