We are in favor of Railroad to the
Pacific on the line of the 32d parallel.
The reasons demanding its construction
are so obvious, and essential to the re-
quirements of commerce and travel, that
its accomplishment is simply question
of time. But we doubt the wisdom OF
Southern Congressman taking the lead
and pushing it forward at this particu-
lar juncture. They may not so intend,
but it will have the appearance of be-
ing a sectional measure which will be fatal
toit. And this is not the least objection
1t will be turned to Radical account and
used to the detriment of the Democratic
party in the coming election. This err
ror of policy can be retrieved if the com
mittee itself will fall into no other
blunder. But this, we are sorry
to say, they are in danger of doing,
if what we have heard be true, thai
a majority of the committee prefer, anc
will report in favor of Scots bill which
grants a subsidy. to the bill of Hunting.
don, who proposes TO do the same work
without subsidy, The latter, is is stated
asks no subsidy, and offers to deposit
$4,000, 900 of his bonds, as a guanan.
tee that he will build the road in six
years, with termini at Vicksburg, Mem
phis, Galveston, New Orleans, etc. In
addition, Scott asks for subsidy for 25C
miles running alongside of Huntingdon
road, which, for that part of the route,
Is complete almost, and he asks for heavy
grant and subsidy for the 35th parallel
road, which he has forfeited, and which
he proposes to defect from Veneta to
some point on the Pacific, near 103d par.
allel. in Western Texas, and which, il
he succeeds, will become the main trunk,
being the same gauge, four feet, eight
and one-half inches, with his Texas Pa
citic. lie will then, in effect, forever de.
prlVe the South, III whose name he asks
their extraordinary favors, of the ben
eht of the road. He has also taken
on number of roads east of Texarkana,
and demands subsidies for them. The
interest on the bonds altogether, is So
S57 900 per annum, which the Govern
ment will have to pay. .
If these facts be true, the Committee
Will commit a blunder in reporting the
Scott bill. Not only the South, but the
whole country, needs the road known as
the Texas Pacific, but at the same time.
there is no use pushing it forward at this
time, to the peril of other more important
objects; and moreover, the work should
be accomplished without favoritism tc
the jobs of particular individuals.

The Centennial Appropriations
Saving at the SPigOf.

We entirely dissent from the recon-
mendation of the Legislative Committee
in favor of an additional Centennial APP
preparation. We though and so stated
at the time, that the policy OF the orig
inal appropriation was questionable;
and we emphaticahy oppose any further
expenditure in that direction. The rea-
son is obvious. The State is in debt;
the people are impoverished and loaded
down with taxes reputation is not to
be thought of, but the propriety is Sc
seriously entertained of obtaining an ex-
tension of time on her obligations, in
order that her business may henceforward
be done on a strictly cash basis and its
warrants brought 10 par.
1t is not a question of public spirit.
Nor of patriotism. Nor of bridging over
''the bloody chasm." 1t is simply a
question of ability-this Centennial ap-
preparation. The money is not In the
Treasury, and the overtaxed people are
not able to put it there ; nor has the
Legislature the constitutional authority
to wiring it from the people for that
purpose. The present body was elected
to cut down appropriations, not to In
crease them; and we feryently trust that
it will keep faith with the people on the
subject of taxation and appropriations
which concerns them more than all others.
1t is idle to reduce salaries and abolish
sinecures in one direction if we intend to
create them in another. Don't let US
enact the farce of saving at the spigot
and spilling at the bung.
The indifference with which the people
responded to the invitation to send th ell
productions to the State Fair, to be after
wards put on exhibition at the Centen
NAL Exposition, shows that they do moi
think themselves in a condition to make
expenditures for the latter purpose, ano
the Legislature, which is simply the
agent of the people, surely will not levy
a forced contribution upon them. So fal
as building a house for the convenience
of Mississippians, who may have the
money to visit the Centennial, il
concerned, it may be all well enough
but, it must be remembered, tina
the horny-handed people who pay
the taxes will not be able to enjoy the
luxury which it is proposed shall be fur
nished with their money for the enjoy
ment of others. They will be at home
working their crops.
| Virginia, Kentucky and other States
in consideration Of their poverty, have
just rejected Centennial appropriation
bills; and it would be better for the Leg
islature of this State to return to the
Treasury the amount already voted anC
not expended, than to pile up another
appropriation.
