SPRUNT, Exchange Corner- decj21. The Daily Review JOSH. T. JAMES, Ed. and Prop WILMINGTON, N. C. THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 13, 1819 Largest City Circulation. In Georgia, one of the most Democratic of all the Southern States, there are fifty two companies of colored troops, fifty of which are infantry, one calvary and one artillery. Savannah has twelve, Atlanta three, Macon four, Augusta two. and Col umbus one, and yet the colored mau has no rights in the South. Senator Thurman's advice to the Demo cracy to inaugurate an aggressive policy, and to maintain it, is the best that has yet been announced. In any trouble with an adTersary there is nothing like carrying the war into Africa. The first blow is al most always the best and surest, and the most decisive of the entire Jight, but this must be followed up by an equal aggress iveness. It is better to attack than to de fend. Gov. Tilden went betore the Totter Corona 't tee and told what he knew about the Presidency steal. He goes ou record. Mr. Hayes is strongly suspected of know iog his snare, and yet he has not been be fore the .Committee, has not been sum moned, and has not 'kindly oflered to tell all he knows about it." He should be summonod before that Committee and put upon record. Mr. Tilden asked to be summoned. Mr. Hayes dare not, and there's the truth f jr you in a very small compass. IN A FEW WORDS. The electoral rote of Florid was for get it. So much is in evidence and it cannot be disputed. Hayes got the vote of Florida, and while there is yet no pos itive evidence that he bought it outright, it is certainly palpably manifest that somehow or other those who had it for sale have been very liberally rewarded by him. That is just how the case stands in a nutshell. COL. WADDELL iD TDK TEST OAT II. At the caucus held by the Democratic Senators aud Representatives in Congress in Washington on the evening of the 10th inst., the first proposition was presented repealing sec and 821 of the Revised Statutes, mdfit was adopted unanimous'y. " Secticn 820 provides that taking up arms in tie Lit-' w.tr, giving it aid aal comfort, in giving directly or indirectly any assis tance .u money, arms, horses, clothing, or anything whatever for the use or bene fit of any person or persons who partici pated in tlu war shall be cause of challenge and disqualification of grand and petit jurors in United States Courts. .Section 821 provides an additional oath to bo taken by grand and petit jnrors, known as tho test oath. As the proposition will be attached to the above-named appropriation bill and made a part there , we may he tolerably certain of a repeal of the unjust, cruel ami tyrannical law by which we ruve so iong been oppresbed. THE "IROX CLAD " 'i'nere is a serious conflict threatened between the Radical Senate aud the Democratic House which mfy, and very likely will, result in an extra session. Active hi'stiiities between the Northern and Southern armies having been suspen ded now for fifteen years reasonable men think' that it is about time to ,do away with Ihehar&h legislation which followed su soon after Lee's surrender and there lore, it it that the Democrats in the House wish to annul the law which requires jnruro in Federal Courts to take the test oath, familiarly known as the "iron clad." This would, of cosree, interfere with the practices of such courts as Bonds and Humphries generally preside over and would therefore rah tho Republicans ol their partisan cohtici ol tho Federal Courts. They obj' ct to the proposition to annul and the House objects to their ol jecticn, and thus the matter rests The repeal of the 'est oath is to be tacked on by the House to the Legislative, Lxecutive and Judicial Appropriation 1 ill and the Senate will refuse to receive it in thi r-hape. It i.s to be hoped that the House will stand firm if it takes all Summer to cany their point. 1 THE 25 SAL OF THINE HOUSE. We very much fear that the z 1 of those Democratic papers who are so insistent in regard to "retrenchment aud reform" as embodied in a reduction of the salaiies of State officers, "from Governor down,'' will work more e il to the party at the next election than if the subject had never been broached at all. It is unfortunate, perhaps, for the people that some of the oldest of our State exchanges, whenever they assume to lead or dictate on questions of Jy.ate or National pjlity, are always on the wrong side of the question. They are splendid at following, but erypoorin leading otheis. The matter of a reduction of the salaries of State officials has beeu agitated to such au extent s to absorb everything else that would savor iu any measure of retrench ment. Weightier matters of weightier moment have been forgotten or overlooked, and the agitation carried to such au extent as might justify an outsider in the opinion that the weal or woe of the Democratic party in this State hung upon thi? great question alone. These things aroj al' wrong. We can't all agree at all limes, but wecau always discuss a question fairly aud upou its merits alone. But it is not worth while to come to the conclusion aud worse than all to print that conclusion thai because a few pipers cannot bull doze the rest into thinking as they do the party must founder and go to Davy Jones' locker iu the very next election which takes pUce. The Raleigh Observer discusses this question in a very admirable article in its Tuesday's issue. Its facts are sup ported by 'figures which cannot lie and what it says. must exercise an importaat bearing on this question. Here are the expenses under Radic.l and under Demo cratic rule: For the year ending September 30, 18t5t), the ordinary expenses were $425, 000; for the next year they were $400, 700. The Democrats then came into power, but the fruits of their labor were not manifest until the succeeding year when the ordinary expenses were lesa than $190,000; that is, where the Re publicans spent tico dollars the Demo crats got along with less than one. But the Democrats did not stoo there; they continued the good work" until the ex penditures for ordinary purposes for the fiscal year ending September 30,. 1878, were only $114,107. Nor have ihey stopped there; other reductions, author tion, and made in 1876, are even now going into operation. Here it is now carefully summed up. The Democrats spent last year 114,107 against $425,000 spent, squandered, stolen and run away with by the Radi cals in 1SG9. We extract further from the Observer relative to taxes and rate of taxaVion and the expense of the gov ernment : The Radicals levied in 1869, 77 cents, and in 1870, 35 cents, leaving a deficit of $100,000 for the Democrats to make good. Per contra, the rate of taxation for the last four years has been 29 J cents. Is that no reduction in taxation? The public taxes amognt to about d convicts, 138,000 42,500 PPPBro and Blind. WWfB. R. Co 100,000 University.". 7,600 'lbs ordinary expens3s of running the State government have been $114,000, of which $52,000 ware paid the Judiciary. ATI other administrative expenses amount ed to only $62,000. The Agricultural Depai ttnent is provided for out of a spe cial fund, the Guano tax, and is not in cluded in the above. Instead of only $62,000, as in 1878, the ordinary expen ses of the government, leaving out the Judiciary, in 1869, were 8365,000, cloar saving of three hundred thousand dollars m one year. In regard to the allegation which has been made (and from more than one source, to ) that the salaries of the State officials have actually been increased, in stead of reducsd, under Democratic rule our cotemporary shows that under Rad ical rule the Governor was paid $5,000, and under Democratic rule he is paid $4,000. The Auditor and Secretary cf State were paid $2,400 each; now both together are paid as salary only $2,250. The number of clerks and their salaries have both been i educed. All fees of State officers are put back to thDse of 1858. The public printing for 1869 was $34,503; for 1878 it was $8,480, and at this session it has been reduced about one-half. The Observer thinks that eVen yet, however, some reduction can be made and ought to be made and in this we heartily agree. In speaking of this fact it says, and this extract closes the entire article: We have said that without doubt the expenses of administering the Govern ment might be still further reduced. The $52,000 paid to the Judiciary and Solici tors has already been reduced to about $40,000. And the remaining $62,000 may also be diminished. It is the duty of the Legislature to make all proper reductions. But it must be apparent that no very large reduction is practicable when the whole expenditure is only $62, 000. It being impossible, the popular mind ought not to Le educated to expect it. However severely we may prune in these item 9, the reduction will not, cannot in me nature or iniugs, oe appreciate. At the very utmost the saving in these mat ters can hardly be more than one cent ou the $100, or 1-30 of the present rate of taxation It would seem, then, that the Democratic press might well be careful not to raise public expectation for the mere purpose of disappointing it. The great expenditures are not embraced within the $62,000 spent in administering the government at Raleigh; they are to be found in the appropriations for the peni tentiary with its 1,150 convicts, $120,000, in the appropriations for the asylums $167,000; and in the $100,000 spent be cause ot the Western North Carolina Railroad. These items, amounting to $387,000, are the great expenditures. lt is understood that the Legislature s matting a thorough examiuatioa of these expenditures, and whatber they can be reduced or not can be ascertained only upon the report of the retrenchment committee; but it should be clearly ap prehended by the public that if any con siderable reduction in the public disburse ments is to be made, it must le made in these items. Why, if all the departments of administration were to be utterly abolished, the consequent relief is taxa tion would be so slight that the people generally would fail to note it unless at tention should be particularly called to the reduction We are not informed whether the ap propriations for ih'f penitentiaries ur lor the public chariiieoc.m or cannot be re duced (that for the VV. N. C. Railroad is made in the State's interest and to save it from loss), but utile s they can be re duced, the people will suffer disappoint ment should they be led to believe that by any possible curtailment of other ex penses their taxes might be considerably lightened.
