THE RAILROADS 80 THE RESCUE.
1t must be gratifying to people la
ngnnder a Legacy of Radical debt,
and the depression of Radical panic,
to know that some seventy to
one hundred millions of railroad prop
erty must hereafter bear their share Of
the common burden. No less encourage.
ing Is ii that we have courts, superior
to the siren wiles Of powerful corpora
tlons' faithful and fearless to dispense
justice between them and the people.
A special telegram published in yes-
eerday's UNION AND American, an
nounces the significant fact that Judge
Guild has decided that the railroad
srne and equipments In Summer county
are liable to taxation the same as any
other species of property. This adds
something over million dollars to the
sources of that county's reve-
nue.. The Gailatin E5dminer says:
The amount claimed for the year 1874
would amount to about $4,000 or SIS
OOO-and if obtained would reduce the
taxes of our people 20 small figure.
The Importance of the suit will not be
limited in its effects to this county, but
viii affect every road in the State. for
the question viii, doubtless, be taken to
the highest court and adjudicated final
". We need hardly add that the
supreme Court of Tennessee is likely
to decide the matter according to the
plain Justice of the case.
It may be argued that railroads are
a public benefit. So are all enterprises
that pap, 20 are farmers, artisans and
aborerS And SO all should be taxed |
o support the Government that pro. |
ects an Every species of property |
which claims and receives protection |
hould contribute to the cost of pro- |
ectiOn. No class of corporations or of |

dictates their support of
,eA courts. in o. der that they may
lemselves obtain .ushce.
II viii be well for | he people to bear
MS important railrl'ad problem in
ind in the coming canvass. Our laws
II the collection of taxes are defective.
hey are often dc'fed with IMMUNITY
" years by wealthy indivsat'als or cor
orations, who can c. 7OmSod the high
1t legal talent in The land. These
Iws need improvement.
Again, it may prove desirable TO de-
are by statute where snd IN what
tanner the rolling stock OF railroad
,mpanies should be asse ssed, and
ANY other details viii occur at once
} the experienced lawyer. 1
Still further, there may arise move
ients, here-an there, by one railroad
another, for an extension Of the CHAR
r privileges now expiring The rail-
lads may plead the poverty of the
mes. The people also suffer. Cam
lch extensions be allowed!
In electing the next Legislature it is
1vious that the people cannot make too
IRE of honest. clear-headed and ineor-
,ptible representatives. No personal
or past dissensions should be
emitted to prevent the fraternal CO.
,eration which is absolutely necessary
prevent miscarriage IN the important
,mpaign before us.

J.
cation. Beecher's explanations re-
quire ns to become most recklessly
conhding, under circumstances that
dictated the utmost canton. When the
situation was so delicate that neither
party could trust the other, but called
in mutual friend, who was to hold all
documents on either side, the gnsh Of
Beecher is the more startling. Take
for instance his letter to 1foulton Of
Feb. 5. 1872. in which he says:
IF my destruction Honld place him
all right that shall not stand IN the
way. | am willing to step down and
ont. No one can offer more than that.
That ] do offer. Sacrifice me without
hesitation, if you can clearly see your
way to his happiness and safety there
by. / do Lot think that anything
would be gained by it. / should be
destroyed, but he would not be saved.
Elizabeth and the children would have
their future clouded.7 - ooai
TO understand this as mere gush,
dependency, etc. calls for a faith in
Beecher almost superhuman. Many
pure souls are equal to the task, and
freely accept his explanation. But
many others win read it only in the
light of Tilton's explanation.
1t matters little whether Beecher or
Tlton be the guilty one. 1t matters
much to society that this deluge of
pruriency be stopped. The response
bility rests with the public more than
people seem to imagine. No decent
newspaper would defle its columns uR-
less it supposed that the public de-
manded this peculiar news, and
would patronize rival newspapers
of rival cities if it refused 10
give it place, The journals are keen
to feel the public pulse. /. is their
speciality, and the wide publication of
this teeming scandal betrays on the
part of newspaper managers a low
but not too low-estimate of the popu-
lar tastes. If the people are wronged
by the apparently universal opinion of
they should let it be
known. Newspapers have no patron
age but what the people give them
freely. Let Indignation meetings be
held in every town, if it be necessary.
in order to stay this torrent of moral
corruption that is tainting children.
We were not entertained with such de-
stories in our youth, and
heaven knows we are bad enough.

ONE of the strongest arguments IN
favor ofconventiOns is that they enable
us TO choose our candidates from all the
material in the party. When any one
is thus selected he is not at liberty TO
refuse the compliment. The primary
election system rObs the convention Of
this power. and besides breeds endless
confusion and bitterness. lt necessi.
tstes a canvass for the nomination and
then another canvass for the Office. 1t
enables a bare plurality to govern IN
all cases. which IN the end is certain to
cause Dissatisfaction. -Jaekson Rhig

A Sumner county convention de-
ciares for Michael Burns, of Nashville,
for Governor doubt the best man
for the times whose name has been
brought before the public.
I1lG-C5c&L C1aBztin Examiner. 1i-'i 4
OF the many now willing and compe-
tent to serve their country in this hon
orable and high place, Al. Burns, Of
Nashville, combines. the qualities in
the highest degree.
This gentleman ia manifestly the
child Of toll and the friend of all the
active industrial interests. He has fine
capacities for executing the responsible
trust, for be. has proved himself compe-
tent for transactihg business on a large
scale. He is practically, as well as
theoretically, a fpancier. His own
fortune has arisen, by the practice Of
an enlightened economy, from labor at
the bench. His education has been de-
rived from a severe experience that viii
prove a most salutary blessing, if
rigidly applied to our disordered af-
fairs a' .s .sirE -.a
The nomination and election of such
a man 10 so important q trust, viii
tend to elevate our interests into the
region of responsibility. Men will not
only esteem them, but direct their en-
ergies and labor within such channels.
Capital Will appear IN steam engines,
spindles, looms and furnaces, instead
of notes ON their ueightors' industries,
sinews, muscles and blood.
The educational influence of foster
ing the industries viii, n the end, be
far the most important, but there are
practical questions that will outweigh,
IN their pressing importance, all others.
His general acquaintance with business
would do much to elevate the credit
and character of the St;vte. and relieve
it of the great burdens now pressing
the life out of 1t.
Mr.. Burns is unquestioliably an hon.
est man, having sought his profits from
the increased value given to material
by skillful industry. he his looked to
the real, rather than to mere expedi-
ents. he will devote his Il me and tai
ents, his large experience and indomi-
table energy, as successfully 70 the at
fairs of the State as to his own. He
has lived IN harmony with th e general
sentiment of the people, anil will take
pride in promoting their great inter.
ests, and IN building up system of
manufactures that viii place the State
IN the front of all the SOutht IN States.

THE Chicago Tribune has been COM
menting in a very serious vein on the
tremendous reaction that has shown
itself in several States of late against
the Republican party. 1t seems that
Tennessee, with its 5000 majority for
Greeley in 1872, and its $4,000 anti
Republican majority in 1874. is not an
isolated case. Kentucky gave Gree
ley 1900 majority, and has been
carried by the Democracy, with
seventy-fve Thousand votes TO spare.
After remarking that such 4 result is
not encouraging for the Republicans
it says that they will evidently have
plenty of leisure, after November, 1876,
to carry out that reform inside the
party" Of which the country has
heard so much and has seen SO little.
Since the nam fight in Kentucky and
Tennessee does not come until Novem-
Der, the magnitude Of the vote at these
merely preliminary elections is regard
ed as all the more remarkable-and
significant.

A RATHER live issue has been sprung
in the very capital of the nation by the
Reform" Commissioners appointed by
President Grant. The Germans are
nearly one-third o. the white popula-
ton. and, even under the corruptions
of Boss Shepherd, they had fair rep
resentation on the Board of School
Trustees. Now they have none, while
the negroes have five members, half the
number Of whites, and more than their
proportion by population. When we
add that the Germans pay four times
as much taxes as the negroes, the
equality Of Civil Rights becomes glar-
ing. Brownlow was correct in saying
that this ''sum of villianies" proposes to
make the negro superior TO the white.
