full benefits Of a monopoly. This is
snap judgment.
When we warned the city against
making loose contracts for water
works, we suspected something Of
this sort, and that every possible ad-
vantage would be taken of the stu
alton which would be possible to any
pettifOgging practitioner. Such seems
now to be the promise. The ring has
a charter, a grant, the law On its side,
and the equity beside, arising from
the fact that money has been in
vested on the faith of the charter!"
The expenses to Nashville, cost of
lobbying. and a few dollars for attor-
ney's fees, we suspect, will pretty well
cover the money" bill. But
still we have the snap judgment
in the action of the Legislature,
which is a complete surprise
to our whole people, and even
to the Mayor and Aldermen, who
have hitherto supposed they had some
power over the subject This matter
must be carefully looked into. If the
usury law and the statute of limita-
tons and the gambling act and the
snap Judgment are all pleaded
against any remedy to the community
now sought to be bOundin the interest
of individuals, if our streets are to be
torn up at will and the authorities
and people enjoined from interfering,
if the price of water is TO rest in the
discretion of a president of a COM
pany and the people are to have no
privilege and no voice, if our legisla-
tors have sold us while the people
were unsuspecting and trusting, and
any set Of men among us are able,
and dare to avail themselves of quib-
bles of law to enrich themselves by
trampling down our rights to have
free air or free water, we haveat least
occasion to thank the authors of our
calamity for their candOr in making
SO frank an avowal of their inten-
tons. We shall now see who is the
strongest in the right. We shall test
the virtue of legislative snap judy
ments on which :" money has been in
vested " on private speculation. We
shall learn whether the spirit of
the Constitution as well as the
rights of the people have been
violated, and we shall see whether a
dozen paupers, Funks, or capitalists,
can override and control the people
in a matter so important and vital as
the daily consumption of water. We
are fortunate in having a firm Mayor
and an able City Attorney, and we
fear not but the interests of the city
will hereafter be duly attended to.
But before we would submit to such
imposition we would counsel the
people to abate the nuisance with the

WE are informed that no such testi-
mOny was given before the United
States commission to investigate the
riot as that reported by a correspond
ent of the A0aldnche, and which is
attributed to one of the political edi-
tors of this paper, now absent. Will
Mr.. Ayres, who, unlike the editor re.
ferred to, is a candidate for Chancel-
lor, deny that he did under oath use
language heretofore published in the
APPEAL, and which is In words and
figures as follows, to-Wit?
47l0. Did you see the crowds passing through
the streets? Occasionally, as they would
move up town, / saw the character of the
men that seemed TO be the most violent and
excited; 1 did not knO them j
do not think 1 saw a single man 1 knew;
they We're mostly Irishmen.
Gu. OF what nationality are the police
men? UNFORTUNATELY FOR US,
WE ARE UNDER a SORT OF IRISH RULE; l BE
LIEvE THEY ARE IRIsHMEN, AND NOT VERY
REPUTABLE.
47l2 will ask you whether, under the op-
Grafton of the franchise law Of the State of
the election, and the control of
the election, of city officers has net been
taken almost entirely out of the hands of the
better class Of society and placed in the
hands of the lower orders? Thar Is TRUE:
THERE Is no DUE THAT. OF THOSE
HAVE BEEN / To TAKE THE RE
QUIRED OATH, y + To THE LAW IN
REsPECT, NINE OUT OF e ARE OF THAT
- HERMAN AND IRISH;
there are but very few of the Old citizens OF
Memphis who are qualified voters under the
law.
47l3. What proportion of the citizens of
Memphis over twenty-one years OF age do
you think had the right under that law TO
vote in your last election of city officers? /
do not remember distinctly the number of
votes pOlled, but l think / would not be mis-
in saying that not more than one out
OF three or four had the right to vote under
that law. Tn registry shows / believe. some
$50 TO 5000 voters altogether, but, according TO
our present population, we would be entitled
TO some 1000 or $3.50 ~voters-perhaps more; it
is said we have a population Of $1,000.
4Il4. Are you a qualified voter under the
law? ! got a certificate, but did not

OF suffrage under the franchise law en-
braces within IL a large portion of the more
and orderly portion of the citi-
much the larger portion of the persons who
'epresent the property, and who feel an in
crest in the welfare of the city the promi-
lent business men of the town.

Judge Hudson, or Mr.. Horrigan, or
Gallagher, or J. E. Bigelow,

AA& W1
THE twenty-second section of the
first article, Declaration of Rights, of
the present Constitution, is as follows:
SECTION q. That perpetuities and mo-
nopolies are contrary tc the genius of a
free State, and shall not be allowed.
The President of the water works
company, who sets forth a pretense of
a charter, as derived from the Legis-
lature, informs us it is "no monopo-
ly." 1t is a privilege to supply the
city of Memphis with water, and to
prevent the city, or its citizens or cap
italists from abroad from furnishing
this indispensable necessity of life at
the same or a lower rate. 1t is 8
privilege to compel the people to buy
theer water of one set of men at such
price as they may choose to exact, or
be deprived of the benefits of water
works for thirty years; it is a privilege
to enrich a few at the expense of the
many, for which, if not objected to
and unmOlested, any capitalist would
give fifty thousand dollars tomorrow;
it is a privilege to receive and enjoy a
great public donation, for which no
proper equivalent has been rendered.
To monopoIize, according to the STAN
dard of Webster, is "to engross or
obtain by any means the exclusive
right of" or "to engross or obtain the
whole of; as to m~Onopolize advan-
tages," or again exclusive command
or possession" Is this what this COM
pany pretends to, when it says it is
"no monopoly" or is it not It
comes up and tells the city it asks no
favors, except some little aid to make
money a little more rapidly. It warns
the Mayor and the Aldermen not to
NEEDLE with its operations on the
public streets on the peril OF a law
suit, and begins to lord it in the true
monOpolist style, even before taking
possession! What, then, are we to
expect hereafter from this ''no
monopoly" company, when it
takes such bold and rank
hold Of our purse-strings at the very
OutsetP We may be mistaken; but
certainly are not acquainted with
any milliOnaires who are members of
it. We do not expect to see them
build any water works for a week or
two. Indeed, we are of the opinion
that they only wish some sort of ia
vorable action of the city, in order
to put it in somebody's power to pull
the wool over the eyes of some greeny
that has money, and then sell out to
I ie best advantage. This would be a
nice little operation," at any rate,
especially for men who could be
bought out at twenty-five cents a
piece, in the event they could do no
