State its right Of eminent douai,.--is power in
sporadic from sovereignty, Of taxing the lands that
are within its limits for the benedcent purposes OF
government What Original State" In this Union
what nation or people on earth-haping sovereign
powers, ever failed TO exercise that night IN Its dis
erection over every species Of property which Vas
within its limitsi And II we Of Michigan do not
possess IT, tohsrs is that principle of tqudlly among
the States TO which the senator so properly alud-
ed five do not possess il, nor an equivalent for IT,
what becomes Of the promise sraesd from you IN our
behag by Virginia, as the condition Of her grant
that you would build up republican STATES in the ter
ritory she ceded TO you and that those States 0hsn
admitted into the Union, should possess and exer
else all those rights Of sovereignty freedom, and in
dependence which the original States possessed and
exercised
But, sir, il was not your purpose to bring us
into the Union in 90 muilated' and in6rm a cond
ton. You looked with distrust, perhaps, 10 the
action Of young and inexperienced State Legislators.
You feared perhaps, that in the exercise of their
sovereign powers, they might tax your acres UNI
justly or caprciously. You have always, therefore,
preferred 10 commute with the new States, and TO
enter into compacts with them upon the footing OF
compensation, Of equivalents, When, in 1886, you
offered US admission, but told US that we must not
afterwards tax your land, you at the time told
us SHAT the subject Of the public lands, and the in
terests Of the said Stale therein, shall be regulated
by future action" between you and the State We
were no diplomatists, sir; we knew nothing of the
arts Of diplomacy; but we thought you meant to
deal kindly, and parent, towards US; and that,
In all fairness, you intended to grant TO US some
thing like an equivalent for that Of which we were
deprived. And when, in 1887, in your solemn legis-
latve act you said that "the State of Michigan
shall be one, and is hereby declared to be one ofihe
United States of America, and admitted into the
Union on equal footing with the original States in
all respects Vhaisper," confidently believed that il
was not your purpose to "palter with us in double
sense" and while you "kept the word Of promise
to the ear, to break it to the hope"

WASHRsros, May 4th, 1886.
To The Editor Of the Unions ... .. ...r nr
S,R: The Union Of Thursday, April 30, contains
sketch of the debate which was had in the Senate
on the bill purporting TO apply certain public lands
% the completion Of railroad &c. across the PEN
insua of Michigan. | have had occasion, hereto
FORE to admire the general accuracy Of your reporter
in the Senate and especially the readiness and tact
with which ne has been able TO catch the tram OF
thought, and form Of expression even, Of speakers,
as well as the pervadins spirit of the discussion.
But the report in the paper to which ! now allude,
30 far as purports to publish what said Is most
singulariy and strangely defective. My attention
was not called to il until Saturdays but reading II
then; could hardly recognise in II any one thing
which had said or thought. However unimpor-
tant the provisions Of the bill may sesm in other
States TO Michigan they arc Of the most vital con-
sequence. Fully aware Of this, had deemed Il 10
be my duty TO consider the subject very much. II
was debated several weeks ago, and many grounds OF
objection were then urged against il. Not knowing
when the discussion OF II would be renewed, and
fearful lest | might forget important objections
urged, had taken the unusual precauuon of redu-
cling TO writing my own proposed answer to them.
The subject was taken up late IN the afternoon on
"Wednesday. The subject had become irksome, and
the usual hour OF adjournment had arrived before
had opportunity to address the Senate, while at the
same time strong disposition seemed to manifest
itself 10 take the vote. In these circumstances |
could not review the whole subject, as IL had been
my purpose to do-common prudence forbade it..
But did not fed myself at liberty to pretermit one
view of the case which thought had not been suf-
kciendy considered--l mean the utterly helpless
and unequal condition in which the States have
been placed by reason Of their being deprived Of
that right Of eminent domain which every origi-
naI State possessed Of subectng to reasonable taxa
ton every species Of properly which might be
within their imits-and IL is in regard TO that part
OF what said especially, that your reporter so en-
tirely misunderstood me. | take the liberty to en-
close herewith statement containing what ] said
on that point and great part of what had pre-
pared in illustration Of that ground and in reference
70 other grounds Of objection, which, by reason Of
the circumstances have alluded to, and those only
could not then present to the Senate. think, sir,
you will not deem it unreasonable that should re
spectfully ask you to publish in your paper so
much at least of what send relates to the point
alude to-and so much further Of that which is
contained in the manuscript as you may deem APP
propriste, and as to your sense of proprety may
seem proper.
With due respect,
Your obedient servant,
.. WILLIAM WOODBRIDGE.
