WE think We can be induced to endorse
the following admirable statement Of fact
and opinion made BY the Bastrop Adsetissr.
Memphis has been ruled by wretched
rabble until the place, it seems, is utterly
ruihed, and committee Of citizens have
been hunting up the city creditors 10 make
an assignment or a compromise Of the intol.
erable Indebtedness. A rich and most sen
sibie eitizon Of Memphis writes 70 the New
York World that the place will be dep0pn.
lated By fearful systems Of taxation. No
body votes in bank or railroad election
who holds no stock, and the same rule, now
that negroes unite in elections with the
wandering rabble, should be applied in the
government cf towns and cities.

Pittsburgh Npcps over the progressive
desOlation Of southern States ana cities at
the hands Of denoniac Radicalism. Ames
and Sheridan aad Kellogg, in desolatiog
two States, in giving the rabble mastery in
cities, and subecting farmers to burdens
measured and imposed by savages, as IN
structed by white thieyes, have destroyed
the value Of properly and utterly destroyed
popular industry. The fact that farms once
worth tifty dolafs can now be bought for
i've dollars per scre everywhere in the
negrO-gOverned prOvinces Of the Empire, is
conclusive not only of the falsehood of
Grants allegatiOas, but of the necessity for
that change IN tie laws Of Southern States
which may place towns and counties in the
hands of those Who are alone interested in
theresnlts of leoil legislation-of those who
Paytaxes. Let the Pittsburgh Post, while
deplOring the ruin of the South and result
ing losses to Pittsburgh, never forget that
there can be ne restoration of prosperity in
Mississippi, Lopisiana or Arkansas, while
the. richest counties and towns of these
States are ravased by adventures clothed
with Office andspOwer by people who never
contribute dollar to the maintenance Of
local or other government.

If the courts of Texas declare an absurd
ity, that New York capitalists are such stu
pendous asses that they have sunk millions
in a contract with Texas when there was no
contract-even supposing such declara-
ton at the hands of the courts-thc moral
obligation resting on the State to execute
the supposed contract would still be COM
pulsory, and no honest race of men would
repudiate it. It is one of those questions,
therefore, which the Legislature can not
shuttle of on the coHrts. The lawgivers
must finally face the music, and to-day, as
we'll as the next month or the next year.
Meanwhile delays of months and weary
years, and chancery proceedings, and rob-
berries by receivers, and all possible woes of
bankruptcy, and delay and ruin fall at last
upon the unfortunate people of Texas.
Freight charges on wretchedly managed,
bankrupt, half-fnished road viii be enor-
nous, and Western Texas must still remain
wonderful only for undeveloped wealth and
boundless wastes.
The weekly democratic statesman. [volume] (Austin, Tex.) 1871-1883, 1875-01-21


FACE THE Music IF You HAVE THE
NERvE.-Governor Coke would strip mu-
inequalities of power, to be absorbed by the
Legislature. He tears to intrust the for
tunes of towns and counties to the people
OF towns and counties. Constitution
makers cannot foresee the necessities of
corporations, and cannot, IN advance, pro-
vide for them. Bridges, railways, schools,
future inventions and discoveries in the ma
chinery of practical life, render the denial
of the broadest powers to local governments
of worse than doubtful wisdom. Let the
people be free and do what they choose
with their Oun. tits only needful to protect
them against ignorance used as an agency
for robbery by selfish adsenturers who
have employed blacks toplunder towns and
counties everywhere in the South. Restrict
suffrage in municipal governments to those
who pay the fiddler, and there will be no
needless fddling by Warmoths, Kelloggs,
or Ameses while Rome burns, and no money
expended that is not more honestly and
more wisely used, than if disposed of by
body, even of Solons, gathered in Austin.
