WEDNESDAY, DEC. IL. 1880.

THE Courier Journal makes a
good suggestion on the question Of
dealing with polygamy. Keep them
off juries. It says: "No man
who is known to be a deliberate Vio-
lator of the federal law should be
allowed on jury, and avowed po-
lygamists should be made to stand
aside in making up juries." This
is right. It is common sense. No
man who believes it is right to vio'
late law can be depended upon tt

Keep the polygamists off iuries

The New south.

Mr.. EDITOR: crave your indus
gence while 7 write a few thoughts
suggested by the recent letter of Cap
tain George Washington. published
first In the colum ns OF your useful and
reliable journal. As a farmer / am
very greatly interested in the material
and especially the agricultural pros
perity of our state, and of the south
ern states. 1rr And when read
anything from any I'd source,
the tendency of which is to
attract some of the surplus enterprise
and intelligence of the outside world,
"a well also rs to develop some OF the
latent energies of our own people, L
am inclined TO give my assent by way
of emphasis,, The spirit OF the letter
| In question Ii excellent, and is a mani.
festation of the living, moving spirit
of the age. It is, In fact, the Keynote
Of the new south that is soon to step
| forth, no longer. led and controlled by
1.-The blind Bartimeus Of southern fos-
silized democracy. Let us hail it as
the harbags of new era for the south,
from which sectional prejudice will
have forever departed, and in which
] nride in the glory OF our American
eitizeuship, will not be dwarfed by
nettv appeals of selfish politicians to
local prejudice. Letthe old fogies OF
the south rail and roar. Let them
curse the young men Of the suuth who
see the handwriting on the wall, and
who refuse to be left behind In

of the state debt, which he has
right to do. But he has no right
to say how we shall answer his
questions. He asks US what we
would favor should the holders of
Tennessee bonds demand q settle
ment according to the face value
Of their bonds, calls for a cate<
gorical answer, and assumes that
the republicans are committed
to their payment in full if
such demand be made. Now, with
us, this is not supposable case.
We know that the bona fde holders
ola respectable amount of our bonds
will make a proposition for a COM
promise at not exceeding sixty cents
on the dollar and six per cent. inter-
est. It may be less. But when the
proposition is made, it will be the
duty Of the legislature to promptly
accept it, and make provision a.
2 snce for honestly carrying out thu
States part of the new contract
Whether the proposition will be IF
ty or sixty cents on the dollar w
are not yet informed, but as befor'
stated, we know it will not be abev'
sixty. We believe that the coupon
of the new bonds should be mad
receivable for taxes, and that the
shInnld show un0n their face

Further, we advocate the policy OF
isuing q large proportion OF them IN
bonds Of small denominations-say
fifty and one hundred dollars.
But to return. When the legls-
lature enacts law accepting the
proposed compromise, let the act be
so framed as to extend the privilege
of funding the old bonds to q given
time, during which any holder may
take advantage Of the provisions.
This will take the matter out Of the
hands Of syndicates and spectators,
and give the real holders Of the
states obligations the full benefit OF
the compromise, and it forces no
one. Then when the bonds are iss
sued, tax must be levied sufficient
toepay the interest promptly. We
believe that under such . law the
whole debt would be funded. The
creditors ofthe state would be'satis-
fed and the credit of the common
wealth restored. If it should be
found that any of the bondholders
were unwilling to compromise upon
that basis, after the expiration Of
the time fixed by the legislature foi
funding under the new act, ther
provision could be made for them
But until that time comes, it is un'
necessary to discuss the proper
course to pursue.

The Nashville Banner of Monday
evening publishes a card from Hon.
s. F. Wilson, late low>tax candidate
for governor, in which that gentle~
man explicitly denies the story
published in the CHRONICLE yester-
day. He says that Col. Savage and
Mr.. Beasly have never visited him
at his house as reported and that
he has had no conference with
them, at his house or elsewhere
since the recent election. The
story is evidently a production
of the inventive genius of the
Banner and was published to
frighten democrats into line on the
senatorial question. It shows evil
dence of fright in some quarters
Il is probably the old cry of ''stor
theft Our Nashville contempt
raries have manifested more alarm
about this matter than they have
real foundation for, and more thar
they really feel perhaps. The re
publicans will elect United States
senator if they can, but not by thu
process about which the Nashville
papers are so exercised.
