THE "DEBT-SHIRKING !"
PARTY.

series of articles published recently, !
has presented some damaging facts,
going to show that the Democratic
party Of the South is reputation
party. It sums up nearly $780,
600, 900 of public debts that have
been, or that are about to be, repu-
dated by States in the South.
Without stopping to verify the
Zri6une's figures, or admitting their
correctness, it must be adj
mitted that one of the first
acts of the Democrats after they
came into power in each State, was
to wipe out, as if with sponge,
every dollar of Indebtedness where
any sort of pretext could
be presented for doing SO,
and the experience of the
world shows that when an
individual or community make up
their minds not to pay debt, they
Will always devise some sort of an
excuse for it.
This policy has been disgraceful
in every State, but as the Tribune
truthfully says, if there can be
grades in this most infamous crime,
''there has seldom been more dis
honest reputation than that of the
State of Tennessee" In other
States, they have given as an excuse
for robbing their creditors, that the
debts were created by carpet-bag
Governors and Legislatures. Such
a sham is not available in Tennes-
see. We have never had a carpet
Dagger for a Governor, and there
has not been Legislature since the
war in which the native ele-
ment did not largely pre-
dominate. Every dollar of Ten>
nesee's debt has been created
by Tennesseeans on the demand of
Tennesseeans. At no time, from
1853 to 1867, could a man, who
avowed himself in opposition to the
various internal improvement acts,
under which nine. tenths of our
present debt was created, have been
elected to any session of the Legiss
lature, from, exceeding a dozen
counties in the State. So earnest
ly were the people in favor of giving
State aid to Railroads, that any
man who opposed that policy was
only digging his own political grave.
But when the Democratic party
came into power in the State, with
their responsibility for the civil
war but recently ended, fresh il the
minds of the people, they thought
they saw an opportunity for
making some popularity by charging
the Republicans with having
collected higher taxes than the peo-
pie were able to pay. 1t was one
of their strongest cards. Every
Democratic politician in the State
those who had Office and those who
wanted it, land their name was le'
gion), raised their voices in one In
fernAl chorus and proclaimed Them
selves the peculiar friends of the
dear people, They We'd with each
other as to who should be the low
est low tax man. They told the
people how they were oppressed.
and that it was impossible for them
to ever pay the State debt. They
reduced the rate of taxation to two
mills on the dollar, which they vel
knew would not provide for the
payment of any part of the interes
on the public debt. The fruits o
their sowing are producing a natu
raj harvest, and reputation is nov
the prevailing sentiment of tn
party.
And their policy in regard to tn
National debt has been in uniso
with their position on the Stat
debt and in harmony with the sent
ments of five out of every 81

A rather Queue-rious discussion is
going on in California, and strangely
caongh it is about the Chinese, a sub
iect hardly ever spoken about in that
State. The question is: Shall the
prison authorities cut off the queues of
their prisonersl Most Of the papers
argue that the queues must go, and
the sandlot speakers take their queues
from the papers. If Dennis Kearney
entered the State Prison as a convict
his hair would be cut closely, and so
II is argued that Chinaman should
be served the same way. Some of
the papers gravely point ont the dan
ger Of tho Chinaman making a rope of
his queue and escaping. An incident
Of this kind would certainly be the
most hair-breadth escape on record.
Meanwhile, the Sheriff cuts off the
queue Of the wicked Chipaman with
great impartiality and pair Of scis-
sors.
