In Monday's Issue we published a
communication from a high source,
recommending Maj. A. M; Jacksob,
as a fit man for the next Senator from
this district.
Good men are scarce in official sta -
tiou, while corruption, incompetency
and dishonesty, dkhonor the council
chambers of our Staté. There never
was a time, as our esteemed correspond-
ent remarks, when it was so important,
and bo necessary to pelect trae and
reliable men for our law-makers—
men whoso high moral and social
standing, educated ideas and views,
and intimate acquaintance with the
«oHllníí of
partments of the State machinery,
wo«ld make them «.power to be feared
and respected by the carpet-bag-
gers and other p!undcr«ra. Upon
them will rest the greatest and
mightiest responsibilities. Liberal and
wholesome laws must be made ; laws
under which we Hon live. Taxes matt
be reduced. Retrenchment and re-
form lu the extravagant expenditures
of State government most bo ¡Jkcted.
Railroad and other subsidy acts - must
be amended, repeuled or repudiated.
It is unci osa for us to Say Major
Jackson bos the ability and other
qualifications for the position. He
comes up to the Jeffersouian stand
ard. He Would be an honor not only
to bis district, bat to the State at
