from such influential Gentlemen In their own coun.

THE PUBLIC PRINTING.

The minority report of the late Investi-
eating Committee on the Public Printing
frauds, shows very clearly that the tax
payers of the State are annually defraud-
ed by the public printers, out of thous-
ands of dollars. The proof is unmis-
taxable, that they charge exorbitant prices
for the paper actually furnished the State,
and defraud the State by receiving pay for
more paper than they actually furnish, and
for more composition than the State or
ders or needs. The frauds we saw, are
clear to every honest man, and the legis-
lator who refuses, with these facts be-
fore him, to vote for a change of the law
so as to give the work of the State to the
party who will do it best and cheapest,
votes contrary to the wishes of his constit-
uents and the public interests. We intend
to watch this matter, and report to our
readers, the names of their public servants
who are either corrupted or are morally
too cowardly to repeal the present iniqui-
tous system.
But Tennessee is not the only State
where real reformers and honest legisla-
tors favor the contract policy, which the
CHRONICLE has so often urged. e
The following article from the Atlanta
,Sta shows that the issue is made up in
that State between honest Legislators and
the aspiring press of the Commonwealth.
Says the San
g In our last issue we published the Senate
BILL which proposes to give the public printing
to the lowest bidder The measure meets our
unqualified approval, and we hope the General
Assembly will give it their sanction The fair
ness Of the proposition not be denied, and he
who gives it any opposition, it seems to u.s.
publicly pits himself against retrcnchment
The bill, as it stands, means business and is
right in principle Let the man who will do
the work cheapest, and who can give the bond,
have the contract
Weare willing to take the printing for %
per cent. less than it has been done since the
war, and are ready to enter into any sort of OBJ
legation to do the work faithfully, promptly and
to the full satisfaction of the State"
The Nashville Banner has been able to
publish ten-column paper semi-occasion-
ally, by reason of its public printing pa
tronage. Take this from it and it would
soon sink to a very ordinary paper.

RECENT dispatches from South Carolina
represent that two hundred persons in
York county alone have confessed their
connection with the Kuklux KAN. Some
of them say they were compelled to join
the organization, and still others represent
that they did it as a means of protection to
their c0lored labOrers. The confessions
are, some of them, very detailed, giving
the names of those who performed the
initiation ceremonies, &c. These dis
patches are all from democratic sources,
and if they are colored at all, it must be
against the administration. Whatever
Democratic papers may allege to the con-
trary, facts speak eloquently in favor of
the Presidents policy, in protecting the
loyal men of South Carolina, both white
and coIored, from the inhuman persecu-
tons of an organization that would have
been disgraceful to the Dark Ages
1t must be a sad state of affairs, when
men are forced to join an organization,
which their common sense teaches them
laborors in their employ. 1t would APP

dent Grant had failed to bring the strong
arm of the Federal Government to bear
for the protection of these people, he
would have forfeited all claims to the re-
spect of a civilized world. If anything
was ever wanting to demonstrate the wis
dom of his action in this matter, the con-
LESSONS of the guilty, who have been ar
rested, will forever put the matter beyond
peradventure. He should protect them,
and all the loyal people of the South, even
if it takes the entire military power of the
Government, and if this should prove in
adequate, Congress should provide for in
creasing the army until it can be done.

HONOR TO WHOM HONOR IS DUE,

The little band of Radicals in the Legislature
deserves credit for the excellence of their drill.
They move as one man. At the word of com
mand they wheel to the right or to the left,
march forward or backward as the order may
be. They keep up the touch Of the elbows and
constantly watch the movements Of their file
leader. AS a consequence they always cast their
whole strength for or against measure as their
party interest may dictate Union and Amaerj-
can. -.-L $1,000.
The Union and American pays a de-
served tribute to the "little band of Radi-
Gals in the Legislature, but seems not to
understand the true reason. The 'little
band of Radicals" in following out the
principles of their party, have no other mo-
tive for the government of their actions,
than the welfare, honor and credit of their
State. Being governed by such a motive
as this, all striving to honestly represent
their constituents, it is perfectly natural
that they should move as one man." They
wantnO tword of command to ''wheel to
the right or to the left, F." for duty marks out
their movements, and an honesty of pur-
pose is the word of command. GAS a con-
sequence, they cast their whole strength
for or against a measure" as their common
sense, guided by an honest intention, may
dictate. There is nothing strange or pc
culiar in this. Made up of such men, ac-
tuated by such motives, in would be
strange if they did not move Gas one
