Finding Tennessee Bonds.

The New York Graphic says: Col.
Polk, treasurer, and J. N, Nolan,
comptroller, of Tennessee, who have
established an Office in the CONT
mental Bank building on Nassau
street, for the purpose of funding
the State debt in accordance with
the terms of the compromise passed
by the late Legislature, commenced
operations yesterday. Up to noon
to>day nearly S1,0O0,O0O worth OIL
old bonds were presented for ex-
change for the new issue, but owing
to an informally in the wording OF
the receipts which were to be given
for the same until the new issue now
being printed are ready, they were
not accepted. The new receipts now
being prepared will be in readiness
by Monday, when the exchanges will
be made In due form. The indica>
tions are that the new issue of bonds
will be rapidly taken up.

THE CIVIL SERVICE.

The question of the civil service
is one that has been discussed as
thoroughly in the press of the coun~
try during the last fifteen years as
any public question. A great deal
has been said that was practical and
based upon reason and common
sense. A great deal has been said
that was not reasonable or practical,
but visionary in the extreme. So
far as the masses of tire people are
concerned, they care only that Of
fetal trusts shall be faithfully and
honestly administered Under a
Republican administration they ex@
pect that the offices will he held by
Republicans. If the Dsmocra is
should obtain control of the govern
ment they expect that official posi>
tons will be held by Democrats.
There is nothing inconsistent in this,
as there are plenty OF honest and
capable men in each one
of the political parties to fill all these
Offices, andsit- lis perfectly natural
that an executive should desire that
all his subordinates be persons who
are in sympathy with him, and who
will support his policy.
But while the people OF all parties
are thus liberal in regard to these
things, there are certain abuses
which they do not and will not coun-
tenance. A Federal officeholder
loses none of his rights by accepting
Office. He should have the same
privileges that other citizens have.
He has as much right to say who is
to be recognized by his party as any
other citizen. But he has no right
to neglect his official duties, and
draw his salary for time devoted
purely.to advancing the interests OF
some favorite IN his party, who has
granted him favors with the under
standing that he should do SO. And
Knoxville daily chronicle. [volume] (Knoxville, Tenn.) 1870-1882, 1882-06-15

when the people see that he is draw
ing his salary without renders
ing service to the people, and
going about over the country pack
ing political conventions in favor of
his boss, they are likely to conclude
that his position is a sinecure, and
that reform in the civil service is
demanded ...
The man who engages in such
business. does himself, his party and
his country an injury. Ii he IS
manly, independent and intelligent,
he must feel that he is engaged in
very small business. and he naturally
loses respect for himself. His course
tends to strengthen and promote a
spirit of faction in his party, which,
sooner or later, will result in trouble
not overthrow. Whenever it APP,
pears that party is no greater than
an individual, and that it's highest
ain is TO promote and CRAFTY the
ambition of individuals, its downfall
is only question of time. Personal
politics may win temporarily but
not permanently -'-'
The country is injured to the extent
of paying salaries for services never
performed, and public confidence in
the ability and honesty of those who
! control the government is shaken.
This evil undoubtedly exists,
though in our opinion, it has been
greatly exaggerated. But it does not
exist to such an extent that rene
dy may not be easily administered
The whole thing is in the hards of
the honest, non-ofice holding voters
of the country They have only to
express their disap and it
will cease, Ii they will only signify
to such officeholders, that official
position does not carry with it the
right to dictate candidates before
political conventions, that will be an
end of it. The men who send out
these agents at public
expense to drum up their
friends and disparage their
| opponents, want the votes of the
people, and if they find that the
people are opposed to such things
they VIII not send them out. The
! very fact that public officials are de~
tailed to go about at the expense of
the public, to bolster up men from
whom they have received favors,
carries with it suspicion that those
to be thus bolstered up are not sat
isfed that they are strong with the
common people, and if the voters of
the country will emphasize the fact
by discarding those who do it, there
viii be an easy and wholesome re>
form Ia the civil service of the
country.

WILL NOT SPECIFY.

Chairman Wallace Of the low tax
Democratic State committee, is OPP
posed to the Democratic convention
which meets nent week. naming any
basis upon which the State debt is
to be settled. He says in his paper,
the McMinnville New Era:
The American, after some days of
dubious silence, comes out i'll its
issue Of May 20th against 60-6, but
urges the convention to present some
figure as a settlement, and says un
less it does the Democratic party
viii 60 to pieces.
We assure the American there is
more strength and unity In simply
condemnlng and demanding the re-
peal of the 606 than there can be
III proposing any other figure.
Thong atful people will ask what is
the use Of starting an ther row I'M
I'll we get out of the one We ar in.
Can we get along well with Co.'S
and 50-4 fight on our hands all at
the same time? Had we not better
get rid of the fills we have" than to
fly to others we have already
tried?' We know there has been
division in the party on the 50-4,
and will be again. We know there
is a division on the 60-6. and that it
will likely continue Why should
we take two disturbing elements
when We need have but one? Let
US repeal the 60-6, proclaim submis
sion, and let the figure go.
There will probably be a strong
element in the convention opposed
to saying anything specific about
how the State debt is to be settled.
Those who are determined upon har-
mony at any price will be in favor
of excluding everything upon
which there is any differs
ence of opinion They might
make their platform very brief, some
thing ike this:
Whereas, Owing to circumstances
over which we now have no control,
the Republicans elected the Govern
or in the year 1880, and,
Whereas, It is impolitic for the De-
mocracy of Tennessee to take de-
cided stand on any public question,
therefore
Be it resolved, That it is the of
fees we are after, and that to obtain
them we are determined to know no
principle, and to recognize no policy
except the loaves and fishes.
Resolved, That we are ''out OF
meat, and must have some soon, OF
| we perish - '--s~5 .a.'-@ &C. s--'a--,..

Died suddenly at his home, in New Mar
ket, May 2Sth, MIR. kobt. j. Anderson,
aged 80 years. The Presbyterian Sabbath
school of Market, June 18th, adopted the
following:
Whereas, It has pleased our Heavenly
Father in his inscrutable, but allwise and
merciful dealings with his children, to re-
move from our midst our beloved brother,
Robt. j. Anderson, we feel it BETTING in US
to give expression to our deep regard for
one so pure, SO noble in character, so gen
erous, SO faithful and SO prompt in the dis
charge of every Christian duty. As citi-
zen we deplore his loss The church will
miss the voice of one ever ready in song,
exhortation and prayer. The social circle,
his bereaved and grief stricken family and
friends mourn the loss of an accomplished
and genial gentleman, devoted husband, a
fond father, and Jealous supporter of every
worthy and benevolent work. But nowhere
is the loss more keenly felt than in the
Sabbath school, of which he had been a
faithful member and an efficient officer for
a number of years. Though smitten with
a grief that cannot be comforted, we are
convinced that ''our loss is our brothers
eternal gain," and that he has entered upon
an existence as high above ours as the
heavens are above the earth.
Resolved, therefore, that it is becoming
in us to bow submissively to the Christening
rod of Father that loves us; and be de
voutly thankful to the ''Great Oliver of eve
ry good gift" that so noble and exemplary
life has been spent among us, and that we
try to profit by the suddenness of the dread
summons, being more heedful of the exhor-
tation, Therefore, be We always ready, for
n, cuch an hour as va think NOT tha Son of
Man cometh.
Resolved, that copy of these resolutions
be given to the family of the deceased
brother, also that copy be sent to the
cambridge Banner, and the Knoxville Tri
bune and CHRONICLE for publication.

If we are to have water works we
trust that the city council, in decid-
ing upon the matter, will take into
consideration that Knoxville is a
growing city. 1t would be- very
short sighted policy to allow the
const ruction of wat-r v orIs calcula
ted to supply only our present
population, or even twenty thousand
people. We expect, before the close
OF the century, to see Knoxville with
a population of forty thousand, and
perhaps more, We do not believe
that it would be safe to permit any
modification of what is known as the
Moses Lane plan, as matter Of
economy. IF we are to have the
works constructed let us begin right.

The subject Of cheap postage has
been pretty thoroughly discussed
recently. There seems to be dis
position on the part of the poetnaae-
ter General to recommend a reduc-
ton of letter postage to two cents.
1t would be a popular measure The
Post>ofice Department ought not
be self sustaining, and the time has
come when the reduction should
be made. By all means let us have
cheap postage.
