THE PEOPLE WANT

The State dcbt,qaest;on settled. Il
the subject is to be submitted to a
popular vote, we hope the Legislature
will give the public a full status OF
the debt and a choice OF proposition:
IA to the rate of payment. The inter
est is accommodating at the rate Of over
$1,000 per day and to allow the mat
ter 10 remain unsettled for years tc
come would be grievous harm.
We have no fear Is to the result if
sufficient light be given to voters to
enable them to understand the ques
ton in all its bearings. We have
never doubted the honest purposes oi
the masses and ifthey be not tempered
with nv demagogues they will surely
never stain the character Of the STATE
with the odium of reputation. When
the issue is made and the struggle
comes the public mind must be thor
oughly enlightened on the subject.
The fight will be confined to each coun-
ty. Not in the legislature but out
among the people discussions must
take place.
1t is evident that the present legiS-
lature will donothing toward settle
ment. Submission Of the question tc
the people IS inevitable. Let it come,

Negro Suffrage.

The leading article in the March
number of the North American Re
view is a symposium Oh Negro Suf-
frage, by Senators Blaine and Lamar,
Coy. Hampton, Representatives Gar
field uni Stephens, Wendell Philips,
Montgomery Blair, and Ex-Governor
Hendricks. Mr.. Blaine opens and
closes the discussion. He claims that
the negro was wisely and justly en-
franchiScd, and should not be depriv-
ed Of his rights to the ballot, but that
ne is practically disfrunchiscd by in
timidatiOn; and he demands for him
ali Of the privileges that have been
anted him by constitutional amend
mems. Niessrs. Lamar, Stephens and
Hampton insist that the political lib
erty OF the negro Is not seriously in
tertered with, and argue that if the
South would be let alone all Of the
difficulties growing out Of emancipa-
ton viii adjust themselves. Hamp-
ton says that qualified suffrage would
have been better for the negro, and
Stephens declares that if an attempt
should be made to deprive the South
ern States Of their present representa-
ton in Congress on the plea that the
negro is not allowed to vote in accor-
dance with his convictions. 1t would
be the most wantOn outrage that was
ever undertaken in any country. Mr..
Blair takes the ground that negro sui
frage is and always must be a failure,
and instances the trial made with the
blacks in the West Indies by the Eng
lish. Wendell Philips asserts that the
colored voters have exhibited as much
wisdom in politics as have their white
neighbors, and that the South was bet
ter governed under negro rule than it
has since been under white legislation.
Gen. Garfield thinks that colored sut-
frage has been more than fairly sue
cesstul, and says that the era Of peace
and good feeling viii come only when
the negro shall be allowed to cast his
ballot without Interference OF any
kind.

4 Good Grcenback Platform.

In the Tennessee House on the 1854
the following prcambIes and rcsolu-
lions were adopted by vote Of fifty
one to fourteen.
Whereas, Throughout TIE entire
country the value OF real estate has
deprecated, the industries Of the coun-
Try are Paralyzed, trade depressed,
business incomes and wages reduced,
unparalleled distress inflicted upon
lhc masses Of the people; and,
Whereas, This state Of things was
brought about by legislation in the
Congress OF the United States in the
interest Of money lenders and bond
holders, whereby an interest bearing
public debt has become curse to the
people, out Of which have arose mo
nopolics OF various kinds, including
the present ruinOus system Of National
banks, ard the contraction and resump-
ton policy, which are destructive OF
public liberty and ruinous to the wei
lare Of the people; therefore,
Resolved, That our Senators and
Representatives in the Congoess Of the
United States be requested to do ali
in their power to procure by iegisIa-
iiou the retirement Of the National
Bank issues and the instance by the
Government Of legal tender paper
money, made by law receivable for
all dues, public and private, including
duties and inrposts as well as the prin-
cipal and interest on the bonds of the
United States, and made by law abso-
lutte dollars, cqu0i at ali times in their
functions and value to gold and s,l-
yer dollars
,. That they he requested 10 OPP
pose the issuance OF any more United
States bonds OF amy Kind or class to
borrow gold or silver for redemption,
II any other purpose, whereby the
moncy Of the country can be absorbed
and draw interest in idlencss to the
detrimcat and unnecessary expense Of
the people.
3. That they be requested to vote
for such measures rs viii bring about
at an early day the retirement Of the
National banks and the issuance by
the Government alone of the money
Of the country, coupled with such leg
jsIation ~ will protect the same in the
future a. fGll legal tenders, equal ut
times in value to gold and silver dol
lars, in payment OK all debts, public
and private. and Of said money an
adequate amount to the full employ
ment Of labor, Il fair and equitable
distribution Of its products, and for
the requirements of business, fixing
a minimum and maximum per capita
to tie population as near as may he
necessary, and regulating lis volume
by wise and equitable prov 'sions Of
law, So that the rate of interest viii
secure to labor It's just reward.
t. That they also be requested t.
procure in Congress, ri a. early a day
as possible, the Uassage OF such laws
that viii exempt no species Of private
property from bearing It's iust share
OF the puIIic burdens, and that VIII
tax Government bonds and money
precisely as other property.
The Bolivar bulletin. [volume] (Bolivar, Hardeman County, Tenn.) 1865-1888, 1879-02-27

We have two millions of bonds
placed upon the back of labor, with an
annunl gold interest of one hundred
millions, secured by the faith and re
sources of the country. The bulk of
these bonds was purchased at from 40
to 60 cents on the dollar. This bond
ed debt, with its growing interest was
looked upon as a safe investment and
all the wealth Of tie country was i'm
mediately absorbed by it. Business
become suspended, men were idle, and
s;agnatiou ensued.
The duty Of the hour is to call III
all these bonds and pay them in treas
TRY notes and then our manufactures
wonld light their fires, the furnace
would blaze, the spindles would bum
and the hungry tramps fDd employ
ment. Agriculture would emerge
from her rank growth Of weeds
and assume new life.
