The Ltacola Journal coaacile its read

They will probably give Liacole) the

The legislature sat down en the bill
providing for tbe publication ofthe Co.,
Commissioner' proceedings" in each
county. This was i ae of the widest and
moat just bills introduced in the legisla
ture. It was just to the people. It was
ia ended to give the people a full knowl
edge of the affairs of the county, aad to
make the couaty oficials furnish them,
aader oath ef ofice. But the wiae leg
islators saw fiit to kill the bill, aad bow it
is a duty every newspaper ewea to the
people, to remember for future use every
man that voted against it. Courier.
The Courier is justly indignant over
this matter, and its advice in regard to
remembering for future use those mea
whe voted against the bill, ia good.
When we recollect that a mijority, per
haps, of our law-makers secure their
election by intrigue, and whoee sole am
bition seems to be to bargaio and sell
their votes or trade them for a Federal
appointment, we are not surprised that
the interests ofthe people are ignored.
And whose fault Is it? It is the fault of
the peeple. So long as the mass of the
people, who hold the power, allow their
votes to be bartered aad traded upon, ae
long will this state of affairs exist. There
is men meaa enough men who actually
do offer for sale the voles of their eon
stitoenta which they control, to tbe
highest bidder, and then whea the prop
er time arrives, they will again proceed
to "draw tbe wool,; over the eyes of the
"dear people1' and the "dear people"
are ready to be humbugged aad led by
the nose without any will of their own,
wherever the political trickster wills.
Whenever a man sells yei out eace,
consign him to political damnation and
do aot be sold by him the second time.
