The home journal. (Winchester, Tenn.) 1858-188?, 1881-01-19

In the proceedings of the present
(42d) General Assembly of Tennessee
we find a short message from Governor
A. S. Marks approving the bill which
proposes to pay $4,000 per annum tc
the Governor, and explaining why he
approved q bill two years since to re-
duce the Governors salary to $4,000
per annum. Gov. Marks explanation
is so perfectly honest and so in accord
with the big heart which we know he
possesses, that it will seem strange to all
who know him that man in the Legis-
lature could be found who would say
eff, after the recommendations Gov.
Marks had made in favor of rctrench-
ment, he has drawn 81 900 per annum
he has disgraced himself" Yet, the
mercural Observation-Disclosures Mr..
Thompson, of Wilson, said this. Surely
Mr.. Thompson allowed his temper to
subvert his judgment. If Gov. Marks
took $4,000 per year he took just what
the law allowed him. And he signed
the bill reducing the Governors salary
to $4,000 in full view of the fact that it
lisa courtesy and custom to renominate
a Governor. That he was not renomi-
mated did not change the man. He
comes, like good Democrat, and signs
bill to pay $4,000 to Mr.. Hawkins, a
Republican Governor.
The Home Journal, long since, ex-
pressed itself in favor of better, bigger
salary to the Governor of Tennessee.
1t ought to tingc our checks with shame
to reflect that our State, with a popula-
ton of over one million and II half,
pays smaller salary to her Governor
than some States pay which have
scarcely half our population. Besides,
we do not furnish our Governor with a
mansion at the Capital. Under the
present talk of ambitious, selfopinion-
ated political demagogucs, who profess
for retrenchment, the office of Governor
Of Tennessee will have to be hawked
about, for no man who is good law
yer, doctor, farmer, merchant or me-
chanic, will have it. If you want
brains and honesty, pay for them. Give
your Governor at least $4,000 Il year
and furnish him a house free during his
term, which is only two years. Let
sovereignty not disgrace itself. The
President of the United States gets $780,
900 year, and Tennessee ought to give
her Governor, whether Democrat or
Republican, at least one-tenth as much
as the President gets.
