Democratic Laws and Labor Control in Mississippi 1865 Review
A critique of Mississippi's 1865 laws aimed at freedmen, portraying them as a modern slave system. The piece describes licenses for work, mandatory written contracts, wage deductions, arrest and return to employers, fines for unable pay, and sheriff hiring of freedmen to cover debts. It cites a vagrant act and poll tax to fund a freedmen pauper fund, plus penalties for aiding freedpeople and for false charges, arguing these measures would enslave blacks if Democrats won.
