A BOARD OF TRADE.

The elections are over, the State
debt question has been settled, and
in a manner entirely satisfactory to
our creditors, placing Tennessee
upon the roll of debt-paying States,
and new era of prosperity is ex-
pected. In view of these facts,
should not the business men of
Knoxville take hold and reorganize
the Knoxville Board of Trade. II
we expect to get our share Of the
anticipated immigration to this
State, we will have to make an eff
fort for it. Knoxville should be
more thoroughly advertised. Every
opportunity to make known the
beauty of our city, the healthful-
ness of location and climate, and all
the advantages We possess over

other places should be promptly
made use of. To do this there
needs to be concert of action, an Or
ganized body, with head, whose
business it is to look after these
matters, and when such opportunl-
ties occur to call the body together
for discussion and action. The
newspapers of the city alone cannot,
nor should not be expected to do
this work alone, and any merchant
and business man is equally inter-
terested in building up our city, or
rather should be. There are many
ways in advertising our city and
its advantages that cannot be done
by the city papers, or rather can
not be started by them, for it would
only be giving the clue to rival
cities with regular organized boards
of trade, or chambers of commerce.
who would act promptly and get the
advantage of our suggestions. In
deed, Knoxville should wake up OF
this subject. There is no city il
the State possessing as many nat
ural advantages, and if an earnes
effort is made on the part of oul
people there is no reason why ou
population should not be doubled il
less than two years.

THE Spirit of the Times, Of New
York, determined to satisfy numer-
GUS inquiries as to the popular vote
in the late Presidential election,
says:
No two compilations of the vote
could be found to agree, and hence
we determined to address the several
secretaries of State ourselves, and
publish a correct table when full re-
turns were received. These we have
now. AS the only just method of
ascertaining the vote or plurality in
the State in the Presidential election,
we have, in all cases, used the high
est vote cast in that State for either
Republican or Democratic elecaor.
In Virginia the Funder and Re-
adjuster vote is added together, and
in Maine the Fusion vote is credited
to Hancock. The complete table is

We have in our possession states

carefully checked with the totals.
The footings are accurate, and it
may be now considered as establish>
ed for the first time that the actual
plurality of Garfield over Hancock,
based upon a comparison of the
highest vote given for the election OF
each party in each State, is 1922,
neither more nor less. This may be
accepted as an answer to very nu-
merous questions we have received
on this subject, as it will be accepted
by the country generally as finally
settling this much-vexed question
There are political lessons to b'
drawn from the fact of so small {
plurality in SO immense vote, which
we leave to others to point out.

That Exemption Ordinance.

Mr.. EDITOR: I see from the papers,
that at the meeting of the mayor and
aldermen of Knoxville, last evening,
alderman Mackey offered the follow,
ing ordinance, which passed it's first
reading:
BE it ordained by the board of
mayor and aldermen of the c. y Ct
Knoxville, That from and after the
adoption of this ordinance all individ-
uals, companies, or corporations who
anticipate entering into manufacture
ing Ell terprises ofany kind. except such
as are hereinafter prescribed, within
the limits Of said city, and who shall
invest in such enterprise the sum of
| five thousand dollars and upwards.
shall have said enterprises exempt
| from corporation taxes for the term of
ten years from the time Of beginn ing
active operation.
BE it further ordained, That said
exemption shall not apply to persons,
companies, or corporations putting in
operation manufact turing establish.
ments similar to any that may now be
in active operation in the corporate
limits of said city Of Knoxville.'
This ordinance may be wise enough
in it's policy, if honestly admins
tered, but it's passage will probably
lead to litigation that ought to be
avoided.
The constitution of the State, ar
ticle End, section %, provides that
'sall property, real, personal OF
MIXED. shall be taxed with certain
specified exceptions which do not
embrace the property mentioned il
} the proposed ordinance,) and that il
"shall be taxed according to its
value
Now this provision of our funda-
mental law cannot be overridder
or ignored by the board of mayo,
and aldermen. It is difficult to con
ceive of an exemption law which se'
lects single individuals Or corpora
! tons, or single articles of property
and taking them out of the class tc
which they belong, makes them the
, subject of capricious legislative IA
i, vor. Such favoritism could make
) no pretense to equality; it Swould

that spring is here in earnest, and
that the dreadful winter of 1880 81
