JACKSOK, Hl'S., June 6th, ls;'.
At a conference of the old-time citizeus
of Jackson, it was deemed appropriate that
. c ,
Kr tfimnirMt men to the next LesTisia
tureas there will be urgent need for
them. The great question of Railroad
Supervision will arise and we must work
not only honesty, but honesty and force
combined if we expect to win. We
might to remember that there are other
things for our legislators to attend to
besides drawing their pay and Uiswer
ing to the roll call.
The Anti-Monopoly Movement.
The movement against the tyrannical
use of corjHirate power which is com
monly signified in this country by Hit
term ''"monopoly" is gradually spreading
in Isith parties', but especially in the
Democratic party. One of the most se
rious -ins of the Republican party is its
support f monopolies, and one of the
most hopeful elements in the Democrat
ic struggle for supremacy is the extent
to which the Democracy is honeycombed
by anti-monopoly. Some of the evi
dence of this fact have been so remarka
ble as to be truly surprising. New Or
leans Picavune.
Presidential Probabilities.
Senator Jones of Nevada.
The two chief Democratic candidates
are Tilden and ex-Senator McDonald.
The former litis a host of powerful ad
vocates, who an- pushing his canvass
with earnestness and discretion, which;
no doubt is made stronger by the efforts
of Mr. Tilden, who is one of the most
,-hrewd men of the age. His candidacy
will depend greatly, however, on his
health. McDonald' would be a strong
candidate were it not for the fact of his
quarrel with Governor Hendricks, and
this may be sufficient to throw him out
of the race. As to General Hancock, I
think he has little chance for a renomi-nation.
At this season of the year you
find Clothing Stocks pretty well broken
up in sizes, and marry odds and ends
that we are anxious to get off our hands.
We have taken all these and marked
them down to cost and below cost, not
because they are not as good as they
ever were, but because they do not rep-
resent a full line.

The Settled Law of the Land.
The .Supreme Court of the United
States has again decided in a case aris
ing iu Illinois, that a State has the right
to regulate the charges of railroad com
panies within its jurisdiction, notwith
gtttndinMht charter of m'uI compan:e, may
mithorize them to fi.i wh thkrott. That is
to say, the charter is subordinate to the
inherent sovereignty of the State, which
entitles it to uphold and regulate that
which pertains to the public welfare.
The principle has been enunciated by
the Court on more occasions than one,
and must he taken to he the settled law
of the land. It is one so essential to the
dignity, not to say the safety, of the
State, that there is no probability that
it will ever be seriously questioned. To
say that the corporation created by the
State, is or shall be superior to the inter
ests and authority of the State, would
be monstrous. Neither the municipal
