MR. Taylor, from the senate 6uance
comm ittee, reported favOrably yestef-
dav upon Ragland's bill to settle the
state debt at 5O-4. This is enough,
aud if the high tax democrats and a
few republicans will come to that fg-
ure, we believe the low tax democrats
as compromise, would vote tor 1t,
and thus settle it upon a basis that
would be acceptable to a large major
ity of the people. What is
the use or sense 10 settle
ment that the people will te&I
TO pieces il they ever get the chance
1t may be said that the bondholderf
will not take this. OF course they
will rot agree to it as long as they are
offered more, but let the taxes be
levied, collected and set aside to pay
the taxes at 5O-4, and they will all
come in and be glad of the Opportuni-
ty. Where is the negotiation" /" in this
unconditional surreuder to the bond
holders, who are manipulating this
scheme2 Since it was set or
foot bonds have appreciated six OF
eight millions of dollars in value

made out o. this, settlement. Settling
at dollar for dollar they wonld make

over and above all expenses. The
are undoubtedly represented in thu
lobby at Nashville by the shrewdes
and ablost men that money can en-
aloy. Il will be something marvelou
IL they DO not get this bill through
And when accomplished it will b
more universally condemned than an
act ever passed by Tennessee legis
ature.
