The Memphis Avalanche, March
Goth, says:
The Senators and Representatives
from Shelby county did their ut
most to protect the interests of the
people against unwise legislation.--
They acted like one man on all ia,-
portant questions, ignoring the pal
try appeals of partisan politics.
They opposed the funding scheme:
they supported the school bill, and
by these two measures will the
members of the 3Sth General Assem-
bly, of Tennessee be judged by the
people. Outside of Shelby there
are others, who, representing West
Tennessee counties, did well, and
faithfully stood up for progress in
education and in legislation. Sena-
tor Snipes of Madison, and Holmes
Cummins of Upton, in the House.
especially distinguished themselves
in their opposition to the funding
job. The votes of Beck of Harde-
man and Latin of Fayette are found
on the side of progress. 1t is much
to be regretted that so many, who
aided by their ability and zeal the
cause of education, should have
marred their regulations by supper
ting a funding scheme which can
never be Endorsed by the people of
the State. The gross errors in the
practical operations under the bill;
the indecent manner in which it
was pushed through both Houses;
the bold extortion from the people
it authorizes; the legal robbery it
sanctions; the absurd order in which
it was passed, before the revenue
was provided tor; the whole scheme
from its first appearance TO its exit
is the boldest exhibition of legis-
lative folly and rascality ever made
to the people of Tennessee, not ex-
eepting the worst days of political
which cursed the State
on the heels of the late war.

THE LanLsnn Whir and Trihnnn

THE Jackson Wing and Tribune,
commenting on the funding law,
says:
eve believe the measure an unwise
one in its inception and PROCESS, but
having passed through all the forms
of law, the Legislature ought to
have risen to the dignity ofthe oeca-
sion, and have passed a tax law
which would be ample to meet all
the requirements of tho case"
The advocates offunding declared
forty cents a sufficient tax to meet
the interest, current expenses, ap-
preparations, etc. Mr.. HOuk, whose
influence carried the measure thro'
the House, voted for forty cents as
against fifty cents proposed by the
Senate. The new revenue bill fall
ed, but the old law is still in force,
and its rate is forty cents. The fun
ders have exactly Whist they asked
when urging the passage Of the bill.
The Nashville Union and American
argues that forty cents will suffice:
the Appeal says that it will, and
that it won't: Mr.. Houk says it's
enough; so does Mr.. Mcfarland and
Mr.. Coulter, and the big and little
funders generally. OF course, their
argument is absurdity-an attempt
to prove that two and two make
eight-but they pushed the bill thro'
on the forty cent basis. Now, let
them walk up to the rack, fodder
or no Observation-Disclosures.
Whig and tribune. [volume] (Jackson, Tenn.) 1870-1877, 1873-04-05

more than 1900 bales from this city The
shipments for 1871 were claimed at only
14,eOs and for 1872 they thus far VIII not
much exceed 1900 bales. True the present
season has been an exceptional one, the
bad reads, the horse disease ana other
causes have delayed the delivery Of the
crop, and the shipments are not yet COM
Pieted. But we cannot hope that the o,0OO
bales required TO reach last years figures
are yet TO come This in face OF the fact
that the seasons have been prspitious and
that upon nearly every plantation there
has been an increase of acreage each sue
ceeding year.
As we make this showing it cannot be
claimed by rival towns to indicate con-
tractisn Of territory tributary to our mar
ket. On the other hand all Of our business
houses report extended circuits Of trade
and there has been 4 constant increase in
the quantity Of goods sold from here. Ad-
joining towns do not share il this exten-
sion Of trade in nearly the same degree.
AS before stated the threatening danger
lies in the fact that the production Of ex-
sumption Of imported goods and supplies
Is heavily increased. 1t Is not difficult TO
see that this course must eventually lead to
disaster if persisted in.
The object Of cur communication is, by
presenting facts like these which are sus-
ceptible OF proof, to encourage a diversion
Of the investment Of capital into channels
where it shall augment production. There
Is far too much investment in mere traffic,
When in former times the profits Of the
farm-profits that went 10 Missouri and
Kentucky to buy more negroes, were thus
invested, each Of those negroes added TO
the productive capacity Of the county.
Now the only investment which can sup
ply the place of this is in additional farm
labor or mechanics and machinery. The
introduction Of the latter necessarily i'm
plies both the others.
Let us introduce manufacturing, let US
add to the value OF our cotton, Of our tim
Der, Of all our raw material, before we ex-
port it, and Jackson has before it a future
as bright as the most ardent friend could
desire; without it never.
Ii beheoves US, then, to act while we may;
while our prosperity is abundant. If we
wait until disaster oVertakes Us, which it
must, for reasons stated, sooner or later,
we shall find difficulties that We do not
now anticipate.
Ny communication is already too long,
and yet my previous positions are little If
any advanced. Having strengthened the
defenses, I hope in another communication
to advance the lines. As stated in your
closing paragraph, the objects sought are
the same; /. e., the urging a diversity OF
pursuits and more attention to manufaetu-
ring. You have been pursuing the subject
according to your plan for several years,
and yet the results are not apparent. 1t is
time that change Of tactics should be
adopted; and trust that shall not sub
ject myself to the reflection that my pur-
pose is not honestly to promote the mate
rial prosperity Of city and country. G..

the Funding bill recently passed by

The recently enacted funding bill
is nothing more nor less than a tub
thrown over to the bond holding

will have, good cause to double
damn the members who voted for
it. In order to stave off past due
