SENATOR GORDON, Of GEOIIQIA.
Senator Cordon, ot Georgia, was one
of the first Rebel leaders to get back
into power under the Federal Govern-
and ho has born** his honors with
great good sense and discretion. For'
bcitrance and self control are not as nat
ural to him as to Lamar, hut he has
learned to practice these virtues through
the bitter lessons of cxpi-ricncr, and
whatever there was fiery and intolerant
in his character seems now sobered and
chastened into wisdom, lie has not the
political insight of the Mississippian, nor
his clear and unpretentious elo iuenoe,
but he is fully as honest in Ids purposes,
and is a far more pleasing speaker.
Senator Gordon is now forty-lour
years of age, and looks, it may he, a few
years older, lie is of middle age, and
vety neatly and compactly built, and the
first thing which strikes the observer is
the hard, weather beaten expression ot
his face Some of this grimness, but
not all ol it, is due to the scar o' an old
wound in the left cheek. The lingering
shadow of sternness and suffering on
the countenance is not unbecoming
when we remember that Gordon went
into the Rebel seivice as a captain ot
intantry in I HOI, commanded one ot t' e
wings ot the army that surrendeied at
Appomattox in 1805, and was wounded
eight times in battle. It may have
served to deepen the lines left by such
experiences that he w,:s cheated out ot
his election as Governor of the State in
1808, whe 1 that amazing scoundrel, But
lock, imw a fugitive in Canada, was put
in charge of the Siate. The form ol
Gordon's face is distinctively Southern,
his mustache and clnu whiskers have a
Southern cut, and the sound of his voice
and his peculiarities of pronunciation all
proclaim his section. As an orator, he
speaks with dignity and in a tone that
makts the Senate chamber ring, a-ing
choice and elegant language, and occa
sionidly letting slip a s nlence that shows
something of the rhetorician's art.
Senator Gordon won his first laurels
in the Senate by hi* defense of the peo
ple of the Smith against slanderers like
Hays, and the union ol jnnderalion and
manly courage which lie displayed in
the petformance of that duty ga.ned the
confidence of a majority of the people
of the North. He was the rftuoiiu
Southern politician who commanded
respect and attenl on outside ot his own
section since the war. Among his own
people his course established his popu
larity on a broad anil firm basis, and they
look up to him with an admiration such
as no one else'll hi State can command.
It is good to know that the influence
which lie has acquired will not be em
ploy- and for any Imse or unjust purposes.
Hi, principal speech during the pr a
ent session was that delivered on Tlinrs
day last, which, although ol no great
length, chub .id a good deal of commo
tion. Its central idea was a CtirlotH oiie,
at 1 his opponents met it in a strange
fashion. lie argued tor the necessity Ol
a reform in the internal revenue service,
and asserted that it is not oossible to
secure an honest and economical col eo
tion of the revenue without removing
that btnnth of the public business from
the influence of the party politics. He
said that we I tail p/ngnriz-d our whole
system frtin England exeevl the single
provision which made hers effective,
namely, the appointment of revenue
officers on their merits, with a tenure of
office dependent on their g< ot behavior.
We had, in his opinion, created our rev
enue system with two purposes in view,
the one the collection ot taxes and the
other the advancement ot the party in
powi r. The English system worked
only for the former ot these ends In
the nature < t things, it was to be expec
led that the management of internal
revenue affairs should grow corrupt
when officials were chosen for their
political influence and not for their ca
pacity and integrity, and when they were
.uaiulaiued against aucusatnni so lon..
as they served the party, whether they
plundered the country or not. He
argued that a'though there might, be
periods of spasmodic effort after purity,
or periods of change in administration
when the internal leveane service would
be honest, yet it inu-t invariably, lapse
into corruption, whether Democrats or
Republicans controlled it, so long as it
was a portion of the pajjty spoil in
political conflicts. There were some
minor points in the speech, but this the-
ory that the internal revenue service
should be simplified and made non
partisan was its essential peculiarity, and
it was only loi the purpose of promul
gating the doctrine thill Senator Gordon
spoke at all. In answering him tin
Republican Senators took strong ground
in opposition to the proposed reform,
and finally, while Sherman tua t* a ekt,
ful diversion in regard to the details el
the plan suggested by the gentleman
Irotu Georgia. Morton and others turn
ed the discussion into a sectional debate,
the object of which seemed to be to
prove that as Gordon had once had been
a Rebel, aud as l'oomhs had said there
was bribety in the last elecliou in Geor
gia, theiefore the internal revenue service
which has given us the wlusky frauds at
St Louis, Indianapolis, Milwaukee,
Chicago and Pekin is good enough. A
more absurd method of treating a reform
earnestly and eloquently urged could
hardly be conceived of; but the design
was to raise the usual gust of war pas
sion to cover up the real question ill
issue, and it succeeded.
Jt is a remarkable fact that Republican
Senators should place themselves on the
record against Gordon’s plan lor reform
ing the internal revenue service, _whcn
their party made the canvass ot i8.2 on
s Utopian project for regenerating the
whole civil service by the same means.
To be sure civil aerv;oe reform tailed mi
der Grant's administration, but iis advo
cates say that it failed only because it was
not lairly tried; and the non-partisan pol
icy, which could not, perhaps, be applied
to all branches ot the Government, might
prove practicable when tested in a busi
ness rather than in a political depart
ment. It is neither honest nor consis
tent for the leaders ol the Administration
to meet Gordon’s proposed reform with
such spiteful intolerance, and it they
think that they have disposed ol his plan
for regenerating the revenue service by
attacking his war record, they may find
themselves mistaken, lie proteases him
self thoroughly in earnest in his theories,
and he has received letters from all quar
ters of the country commend ng h s
course, which ecuvince him that tbo t>e >
pie are wit i him. Indeed it is plain
whatever statesmen may think ot the
natter, that the public Ins full laith in
such a scheme ot reiormation, and will
stand by the man who proposes it in
good faith. J- OC,
